I can't listen to music when I'm trading.
I get preoccupied with the production, the arrangement, the individual instruments, the score, lyrics etc etc and totally switch off from what else is going on.

Thanks Dave, that was awesome.
I find a similar thing, my brain is tuned to picking up on little signals so music makes my brain pick up on little things, whether it is a lyric or something. If I do listen it has to be non-lyrical music of some sort.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Mon Jul 31, 2017 4:56 amI can't listen to music when I'm trading.

I've made more and more use of sound in Bet Angel to give each market a 'tune'. Just little things beeping and buzzing allows me to get a feel for the way a market is behaving.
It's great when i guy like this can turn up at your local pub.
One of the best guitar solos of all time IMHO.

Haven't been doing to bad over the past few days lately doing automation and semi-automation. Trying to crack the pre-race trading and downloaded swetish's spreadsheet to gather some data. Another good one to listen to if you're having a bad day to chill out to white or black. Link below. White for me, i think it's those boots that does it Like LeTiss says don't trade after alcohol. Good video to watch for any newbies is :-

The only music I hear during late night trading is whatever they play on the US racing channels between races.
But if I was going to put on my own music, Opportunities (let's make lots of money) by the Pet Shop Boys, would be a pretty good choice.

The star wars piece 'duel of the fates' by john williams makes for some good trading music imho and it is a sort of duel of fates isnt it?
