This new magazine just launched.
From a review:
- Trader Monthly is the only magazine specifically designed for the exciting, fast-paced life of the professional trader.
In each issue we'll bring you news, strategy, and profiles of successful traders from around the globe, along with the latest in high-end sports cars, dream real estate, deluxe timepieces, fantastic vacations and much more.
Let us show you how to See It, Make It, Spend It.
The first issue features a story headlined "Will My Heart Palpitations Kill Me?"
It addresses one of the downsides of trading, aside from the fact you can lose your shirt with a poorly-timed trade; the reality is that many, if not most, traders exist on poor diets, little sleep, and too much stress.
I can't imagine anything more unpleasant than being a trader.
The thing that is most off-putting to me is the need to be aware of markets 24/7.
Traders sleep with their computer terminals; they get up every couple hours to check their positions and make adjustments accordingly.
What a nightmare.

Did you get a look at this magazine? They sent me a complimentary copy and while it has a nice layout - much better than the other much drier industry publications, its content is total B.S. They obviously have never met any real traders, since they make us out to be high-falutin jet-setters when in fact we're generally just regular guys who never wear a suit unless it's for a wedding or funeral. Neither I nor any of my colleagues would buy a woman a $66,000 "I'm Sorry" gift of jewelry as they suggest in one article. They try to make this magazine like the Robb Report, and I just do not think Traders are the audience for this. Not these days at least!

What kind of traders do you hang out with?! I work 8 to 5 and go home. If I'm not feeling it I leave early. It can be stressful, but the freedom and money is great.
