So what music do you listen to whilst trading ?
A bit of Bach or Never Mind the Bollocks by the Sex Pistols.

I find myself singing the Love Boat theme song every now and then.

If you're gonna listen to k-pop, make sure it's hidden - I found the playlists too "distracting" on my other screen

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.

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.

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.
