trade between breaks and trade the opening and closing is what i currently do with my FT job.

I have been doing this for the past 10 years- without my current job i think i could not deal with the emotional roller coaster of the stock market. the thought of not having food on the table and the thought of losing everything with no back up plan doesn't stick with me. You can be the best trader you think you are when you are making consistent returns in a bull market, or you can be the worst trader, trading in a bear market.

maybe im not considered a day trader? swing trader perhaps?

not sure if its the current market conditions )extreme volatility, uncertainty and high valuations, low interest rate environment that is making it very difficult to predict share price movement and market behavior

anyway ive had a rough 2 months on the spec end and taking a break while i wait for better trading conditions/opportunities.

Good upon you @TraderRR, I thought it was just me.
After all the self-educating and being extra careful these last few months, I have struggled to make an income. Just small bits of profit here and there and am stuck in a few again, stale, stagnant, waiting for news that is overdue etc.
