I'm about 8 months in as a challenge student. I do feel I am becoming more consistent but still make some dumbass moves. My biggest challenge is trying to fit trading into my schedule. I live in Idaho so premarket begins at 2am (4am est) here. I have a wife, two kids and am a fulltime business owner of a furniture store.

I am able to trade premarket somedays, depending on the kids schedules and all that, but 7am-11am (mst) is my ideal window to trade mostly uninterrupted . I just need to figure out what the best setups are for intraday trading in this current market with many of the best moves being premarket.

I do plan on being a fulltime trader eventually, as I do not enjoy my business, but it's not something I can just shutdown overnight and need to prove that I can be a successful trader before I even begin the process of closing. I will make it happen though!
