Bitcoin Forum

Do you ever trade at work or trade on your work computer? Any reason why you think this might be a terrible idea?

Hate to admit it, but I have done that.  I've also used one of the computers at work to post on the forum, and I've done deals for bitcoin as well.  Fortunately my boss really doesn't care as long as the sites we visit aren't going to be putting malware on the computers, and there's a lot of downtime at my job anyway.

On the other hand, I try to use my phone for trading and related activities when I'm at work.  I don't like the idea of leaving a trail on a computer that isn't mine.

Been doing it thru my phone. I created a new profile on tradingview, its easy to create one anyway and then view it on the desktop, I bid on my phone in binance as I have also installed its app. This isn't hard to do actually but you'd be distracted most of the time since you are going take a peek to your phone from time to time specially if you haven't set a sell order yet.

Terrible as it may seem but if your company allowed your to use your phones in the office, you're still going to be doing things in your phone like loging to facebook.

Terrible idea if one of your office rules does prohibit any other form of activity which isnt related to work.Doing trades on your workstation would really put you on trouble once your boss caught you in act.

If you know that it would risk out your job then its better to avoid such thing.On my experience, i have done on doing trades yet im fast enough to press that ALT+TAB thing.  ;D

Nah, they dont prohibit doing other things that arent work related. But trading seems a little worse compared to browsing the internet.

I have poloniex and binance app on my phone and that made me to trade both at work and on my way back home. I have not used my office computer to trade as I see it too risky to do that and the office computer is not made for that purpose.

Though I am a student but few months I ago I worked in a office ( project type work) and used that computer to browse bitcointalk and sold my altcoins in a exchanger.Actually office stuff don't know about crypto too much. Also I use incognito tab to use my personal sites :D             

I think a good reason for not trading during work is due to the fact that you can't serve 2 masters at the same time. Also as the saying goes, Jack of all trades, master of none. I would suggest anyone trying this should stop.  It's best to do all things related to work at the workplace and then put 100% of your time when you're at home to trade. I think it'll be more better that way.

Well I do post on this forum using my work computer before, but I just realised that there might be risk on my end so I stopped. And with that said, I don't used my my work computer to do trade as well. So yes I would agree that it is a terrible idea, first the risk and then how can you focus on your trading when a lot of people are around you? And the chance that your boss might see you doing something besides work? You might lose your job here.

I admit that I was doing it but I just doing it when it really needs, and only I did it when I was in the break time.
Of course, we know also the possible risk when are at work, focus and time involved in trading cause it could be different when we are doing it without the hassle and at home. Cause the more time we spend on trading, the more efficient we are.

I've done it, but not from my work computer, but my own. If you got the free time why not. What you don't want to do is risk doing it when you're not supposed to or when it might interfere with your work.

It wont really be that comfortable to make trades when there are lots of people or co-workers behind you unless if you are on a room with having 2-3 person then i might consider on doing trades while at work but for
a very noisy workplace then it wont be ideal to trade yet distraction level is high and might cause for you to lose money instead on earning.Dont try to fuse up two things because trading and having a work
would really build up stress into your brain yet you're thinking on how to make positions on trade and thinking how to do your day job.Its better to set it aside and do trade when you got home.

No never. I only did that through my phone. It's horrible idea to trade with your office pc, your account would be not safe later. It's better to trade at home, when you are already relaxed rather than trade during your work (your boss could angry because you are doing something else than your job)

Same with me i've only done it on using my phone but it never crosses my mind to trade using our companies computer because yes your boss might caught you and the biggest risk is your information that you are entering in that computer, remember that all of the actions you do on a company computer is tracked and you might be at risk but the thing is some companies don't really let you use the internet on work so you won't be doing it in the first place.

So far I don't do that, I can't like somebody else take two job at one time. I really enjoy when do work just one use the right equipment in right place, once I do two job at the same time the result make me fired. We have different ability and I prefer trading must do after work, don't push to hard you can lost your job.

I tried it many times. It's not advisable but doable during breaks and as long as it cannot affect your work output. Besides, I already knew what to do. It was more on executions only since I studied already at home the other stuffs.

No, I never trade using a computer at work. I trade on my computer in my home, but I install a tabtrader on my mobile phone, so if I am not at home, I can still check the market or hear the sound of the alarm that I already set. I often to go to someplace, and that makes me cannot use the computer, and I decide to install a tabtrader to trade. I don't use a computer in my work because I don't work at the office. Besides that, I am not sure that our boss will okay if he/she sees what we've done while we are at the office.

To be honest I often trade using a computer at work  ;D, because my job is not too busy. Then I like to use empty time
for trading. But after I think this is a bad idea, try to imagine if my boss knew that maybe I would be reprimanded.Or the
worst case scenario might be fired, therefore after considering the risk. I decided that starting this month I will use it just
a personal computer at home to trade.

It's kinda embarassing to admit, but I have done it before, only once though. I always trade using my phone or checking the price whenever I get free time at work, but at one time I forgot my phone, and also forgot to put a stop-loss on my order that I've made before I went to work. So yeah, only that time though.

Since it's not safe for many reasons, especially if your're caught red handed by your superiors lmao or maybe there's a virus lurking around on your pc or things.
After that one time, I tried to be more careful, I changed the password of my exchange account that I've logged in on my work-pc and delete my search history as to prevent unnecessary future problem and all.

I have tried it couple of times in my work computer but mostly I trade using my phone because it is more convenient and I can trade anywhere I am so long as there's an internet connection. I don't think it is a terrible idea so long as the computer you are using is fully protected and it has updated anti-virus and also you make sure that you log out every time you are not using it especially if the work computer is common to anyone at work to make sure that no one will be able to use your account.

I do it when I have free time (not too much work), I can do this because I'm alone in the room, maybe if anyone else on the room I don't think to do that.
Currently I'm doesn't work anymore so I use my own laptop to do that.
Don't have any issues when do that, just feel unethical because using work time does things that are not supposed to do, but never neglected my work.

I do, but in my phone. Greatfully, I use an exchange who make aplication in android i.e binance exchange. It really helps me to trade and to check the movement price of cryptocurrency.

As long as you can focus you can do trade where ever you are. And I don't think it is a terrible idea and you can hide it from your boss if you aren't freely to use phone while you are working.

But as far I know, I didn't focus to do it. For me, trading cryptocurrency is need a peaceful situation. Because you will make a decision through your the best analyst.

No. I never experienced trading at work even i am on a break because it is inappropriate to do something that is not related to my work, also our boss monitors the sites that we visit and our internet, that is why i would get in trouble if i ever trade while doing my job. I also used a trading bot to help me to manage my trade while i am away or i am at work.

Seriously, if you are into this business and you are really dedicating your time finding the right entry you'll going to use whatever resources that you have just to create your position. You don't want to lose the opportunities even you are at work and there's no restrictions or the site are open for your to access you'll take it. Maybe there's still different opinions about this but for those who are really got addicted with trading it's not impossible to do it.

I will not trading in sharing computers at my office, other than everyone can use my computer work (I can't set a password because it's not permitted), people in my office are aware of technology and I don't trust everyone. So usually I bring my laptop to the office.
My work time is flexible, as long as it's done before the deadline I can do other activities, trading is one of my choices.

If given a chance by my boss that I would be provided a personal computer with internet access, trading cryptocurrency wouldn't be a big problem. Unfortunately it wasn't a work related activity, so it's a mortal sin with the company rules. Most often, trading can be done using my mobile phone during break time.

I often trade at Work. I know this is a bad idea but i cannot stop. I can't stop thinking about the market at work so i have to look at the charts every hour. However, i am distracted by many factors (my boss, collegues, sounds, ...) so my decision is not alway good.

I once did it when there was work outside the city, but I use a personal computer, and trade during recess, so my trade will not interfere with my work, I have already been paid for the work, so I must have the responsibility to work, and don't want to steal time just to trade.

All ways do your priorities first, job is permanent and trading is just temporary so think wisely if you are willing to sacrifice your job for a trading. Trading can bring you loss and it can consume all your money and assets.

If I were you, i'll focus on something that is permanent and is a sure source of money. Not in trading that is not certain as a source of income. Good decision making can lead you to a better place in job.

Yes Im doing that to trade even if I have work need to finish.
But not everyday to doing that thing maybe two times in a week, Because I just need to look and trade some of my coins that I have,
We all now this is not a good Idea we doing trade while we work in a company that we serve for so long.

And my advice must focus to our work if the time of work, Actually we have to trade if we are in our home.

lol, it's very reckless if you have to trade using an office computer, it deserves many cases of trading accounts on hacks and hacked wallets, this carelessness should be prevented why should you use an office computer that is not your own personal, usually office computers that have serious problems, of course you know that someone will do the computer maintenance and he understands about bitcoin and then accesses your trading account, you certainly know the consequences ??

I have never traded using an office computer or anyone's computer, maybe using a smart phone I once did it once but now I don't do it anymore because I worry about security about my money using the internet network from the office

I have done it , I used to trade in my class in mobile now I do trade in office but only manage positions that's all , its not good to trade in office or college we cant focus on trading I have messed up many trades

Well most of the time, administrators have access to company computers so the information that you put there aren't a hundred percent sure. You can set up but and sell orders anyway while you're at work, so I think there's no need for you to access it using an unsecured device. It's the same as opening up your bank account with the risk of other people peeping through your information.

Honestly, yes. Especially i work on cafe net in past. And then a lot of things happen when i do my job like coin dumped and i late to sell, missed moment coin that get pumped. I think it is all depends on what is our job, if we think we can't split our focus don't do trade at work although it is very good  moment that happen.

Even my boss is not strict to his employees I never tried using my computer to trade. I have to focus on my job since they are paying me good and trading needs time to do it well. Currently I quit my job already to focus on our family business and in crypto so I have lots of time to trade.

Yes I have tried this before, There are a few of my colleagues who do the same thing as me. Trading at the company's office, but now it's over because our boss doesn't like it, Currently I only trade via my phone if in the office, but the current market is too boring so I do not need to spend too much time with it, I watch the market and see if the price is major

depending on the situation. but so far, I've never done it, because I'm busy with my work, and sometimes I look for information in this forum. Well, because of that, I just checked the price a few times and did my job. if there is an opportunity to do that, I might do it.

I do not dare to use office computers because there are divisions that specifically monitor work activities periodically. Trading can be via smartphone only, and I only need to set the price alarm with vibrate mode when I'm busy with work.

if it's not like this, I always set trading orders in the highest profit percentage adjusted to the daily chart. I also aspire to quit my main job and focus on digital currency alone to be more free without being burdened with time.

I once did that when FOMO, honestly doing traders while working at the office is not very good because the focus for trading is definitely not optimal.
it's better to do trading in a more relaxed time such as in a room or outside a quiet place so that the atmosphere can be calmer.

Yes i did, nothing to emberassed because it's usual thing to doing trades whatever our job is in this era. But i usually change my connection to my personal connection for safety purpose but my collega are knowing that i'm trading at work

It depends on the type of job and the nature of the instruments you trade, but it is totally possible. Personally, during small breaks every hour or so I check my phone and surface but since I trade the 4H charts and up that means I really only check at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. GMT+2 roughly. If the situation didn't change and I can't place a trade I wait another 4 hours so it doesn't interfere too much with my work and they don't care too much as long as the work gets done.

Using the public network when trading at work is precisely not a good idea but i don't support the act of trading at work because it something i have before and it lead to me losing my job. However, this is one of the reason i don't support the act of spending much time on trading.

for me trading at work using an office computer, of course, cannot focus on the work we do and cannot have full control over the trade we make, it shows a lack of professionals at work and cannot appreciate the boss because when we are at office fully time we must be able to focus on the work we do so as not to disappoint the existing work team

It might be a terrible idea to answer in this thread as you become a target for malicious campaign probably =]

If you are doing office works and you are already familiar with what you are doing then why not, you can always do what you need to do for as long you know how to manage your time, I have known a lot of people who can do this so why not. Actually, I am doing posting at work if I do have the chance, I make sure to finish my job first then that's the time I will post if there is time.

Honestly, I don't have any job right now so I have my full time on managing my trade. But if I do have the job I won't use my computer to trade because I do believe that it is a bad habit beside we are being monitored. You could only use your computer to check the chart but it is a terrible idea to use it on trade. You could also do it on your break but not in working hours because if you get caught you could lose your job.

that is true , no matter there is a strict rules in your workplace there is a way to break out of it for for reasons.

especially if you had a boring workpaper , trading could make your brain fresh . yes as long as you not go allin and lost all of your positions  :D , but it could be a bad idea when you do it in a rush , instead having your brain refreshed , you will get stressed from just bored lol.
a very strict rules workplace will prevent you doin this , you don't want to get sacked because of that single click to open binance right?

I don't trade at work as I think it is a terrible idea to trade in the office with your work computer as the IT guys always know if there something else going on in your computer and that can lead to you getting fired and also that many of my colleagues think that bitcoin is a bad thing used for illicit purposes. So I avoid talking about bitcoin with them.

Yes I have done trading at work and I am still doing it whenever I get time but it is difficult to keep your terminal open in office hours for a long time so trading during work should be very selective.If you already have your template set and if you can analyze the trade within a small span of time then only you should attempt to trade else trading should not done during free time only. Trading needs lot of concentration, a proper homework should have been done to select a potential trade so that it takes a few minute to check the complete setup during working hours.

Yes if it is legal in your country and your work place can allow you to trade then you are like a feee bird to trade and ensure that you do in limit as your priority should be work and. Or trading else it can impact your review and performance in long run.

It will require sufficient time thats why you should not let yourself in a hurry on making trades.If its prohibited
then better not to trade or make use of office computer if it does allowed then its your choice on what to do but
do it on a vacant or non busy days.Checking or setting it up wont really consume too much time but make it
sure that you can do things on flicker.  :D

I think trading at work is a terrible idea in the sense that work environment does not really give you the time required to do your trade analysis and place trades, as office task can be very demanding (depending on the kind of work you do.) But if your work is not a busy one and not tasking, you can actually do your trades there.

It isn't terrible to trade even while at work. It is a nice experience to start with because while at work, you have the opportunity to make additional money. Again, leaving your trade because you at work might give you some losses. I think if there is chance at work to trade and make more money, that is good.

I do not go to work anymore and work as a freelancer now and obviously I do trade while at home doing my freelance work as well however back when I was going to work and was in an office I did more than just trading, I was a bit comfortable because I had my own room (normally a whole teams office but they moved their office somewhere better so I got stuck all alone in a huge space) so I was capable of trading, gambling, watching movies, even downloaded games to my computer with the help of IT (computer wasn't allowing, he bypassed the admin rights lol). That is actually the biggest reason why I have been involved with bitcoin for many years since the early days of bitcoin, I was so bored at work that one day I saw something about bitcoin going up and ever since that day I have been involved.

I think that would be a bad idea to multitask trading plus your commitment to do your job while at work. You might miss some opportunities because you aren't focus enough on trading because your boss calls you. It would be great if you full time your trading when you aren't doing something like in work to maximize your potential to gain profit.

Have done it in the past but only when necessary like I used to have lots of notifications on prices and when I get a good profit on my trade then why not use the computer and complete the trade..!! My company doesn't really care unless you don't complete your work in time so it was never an issue for me.

This is such a funny question--funny because it makes so much sense to me, and I relate to anyone asking it. 

I don't really do much trading in general, and I haven't traded crypto at work, but I've spent a lot of time fooling around on the work computer with various crypto things, so that sort of counts I guess.  Only a hardcore crypto addict could understand the need to do this, so I guess I'd have to put myself into that category.  It used to be the stock market that I'd have pulled up all the time on my job's computer, but that was years ago and now it's all about bitcoin for me.

Not terrible, but jobs tend to frown on using their time and computers to screw around with bitcoin.

I don't think that is good idea. If you trade at work you can't be concentraded on either of these two and results will not be good. Serious trading demands full dedication.
I can support trading at work only in emergency situations when you don't actually have don't choice but that shouldn't be regular practice. Also you might have problems if your employer founds out about it.

It's not a bad idea when we just check the market and a little to do something, but not to do trades that are routinely done as usual at the place or when working, other than that if there is someone who is comfortable to do that regularly while working then isn't it means it's something or a bad idea, because as long as we feel comfortable doing it while busy at work I think it goes back to the position and busyness that is owned by each individual and remains to have good control when the pressure is increasing because of doing many things at the time same time we will split the focus which of course it will make emotions unstable.

I do trade at work since it is very easy for me to trade because of the mobile application of Binance. I use their app and blockfolio, so I can monitor the flow of the market and also the value of my trading portfolio. I think that other people should do this also in order to gain some profit while they are at their main source of income.

at this time I have resigned from my job. but in the past, when I worked, I often traded at work. Well, I did it because my work has a lot of free time. so I trade. but I have never traded using an office PC. because it's very vulnerable to being hacked. Why.? because I often forget to log out while on the computer. and for others, it is not recommended for safety reasons.

well that's why the importance of lessons like this is not to access your money, at least know where is a good place, sometimes people come to this forum say I lost my bitcoin, I access my wallet at the office, this is a real folly even though many people have said and I often say that, use our own laptops and computers and no one else accesses it except ourselves, because that's the importance of security it all depends on how people keep their money well

Yes it can be a vulnerable to hackers because the pc is open to public. I trading in my office but I do not use the pc and the laptop owned by the company because there is possibility that if I logged in using that pc or laptop, my account will be vulnerable to hackers. I am trading in my office using my cellphone and also my own laptop for security reasons. It is better to play safe always for me to ensure that I am the only one who can access my portfolio.

It's a terrible idea because I think most companies don't allow it. I'm not sure though but I think it's inappropriate to use your working time for other things instead of work.

I haven't work yet, still studying in uni but as you can guessed yes I often trade while I'm in lecture lol. It's bad because I definitely would not listen to my lecturer. Beside that, my friends would also be curious of what I'm doing. I don't get comfortable when my college friends know that I'm trading, especially crypto related.

I have never done that, trading must be consistent right and never use an office computer I have never traded at work, I trade always at my home because it is comfortable and at the right time.
If trading is done with office work it will be lost in your concentration in seeing market movements.

Yes, you are right, we don't know if the office computer is secure or not because I am sure that our boss can watch us from his office. And if our work is not focused, our boss can get angry with us and that means we will get a warning from the boss. It is better we use a computer in our home or at least we can use software or apps for mobile phones, so we don't interfere with the computer at work.

It's better to bring our own laptop to trade at work or at least we use our phone to trading at works. also don't forget not to use the office network because our activity could be traceable by the IT people in the company.

It all depends on the work done using a computer, and I do not do it because when I work for real I only use my smartphone to trade and in my free time.
and I am more relaxed doing trading at home with my personal computer and not involving other lian jobs.

I am using mobile phone at work. And take note, I do some swing trades. There's nothing wrong about using mobile phones in trading. I still execute orders, (fill and exit orders)and it wasn't a terrible idea at all. I certainly gain profits without hassle. When it comes to technical analysis or indicators, there's a tradingview app to monitor chart and prices.

It could not work for me and besides its a big no no. The sites are restricted and no time to make it either because of a very busy work. Mostly I can do it before I go to work and when I got home from work. I just do it part time on weekdays and full time on weekends.

Mobile trading environment was too complicated if we have to compare it with personal computer. If you're working in the office of some clerical jobs, that's a good opportunity when we trade on full webpage viewing. But not all job has given this chance to do that due to some restrictions by company rules and regulations, so finding separate time schedule after work was I think very safe and convenient.

In work, we have different sets of rules that we must follow, but sometimes we break that rules for our selves. One of the most problems of the traders today is the time management we cannot skip just a little time to trade, it is money, and if we just skipped one trade for just a second sometimes, it was a bit lost on us. Still, work is a work that is our passive income we need to have a stable work this is the main source of our expense. You must focus about it, many people are struggling to find some work, and it is better to love your work, use trading as an extra income for your self and future don't take too much focus on trading if you have a good life and work with a high salary.

I think it would be better to trade if you are free and not really preoccupied because you will be focused on trading. And just like you said, i think the company knows where you were logging in that's why they blocked the site because most computer companies are connected to the server computer. I guess trading at work is not recommended.

Don’t do it! If you have a regular job that you need to pay the bills, don’t do anything to risk losing that job. Trade when you are off work and never use a work computer.

Why you are going to trading while at work? Work honestly and don't do any other businesses aside from your work. You can trade at your convenient time not just at your work because you can't focus on trading and probably you will have an error in picking coins to trade.
In trading, this is not an easy task you do, it needs further research and spends more time on it. QUIT your job in you want to trade, or QUIT your trading and choose your decent job. If you are in a long term trader probably that is fine after work but in daily trading, it needs for you to monitor every minute.

do more trading activities at home, several times also in the office, no problem because there is always free time after completing presentations, bring my own netbook so that it does not interfere with the main work, friends with higher positions and have their own room also do it, but professionalism still must be awake.

I don't work yet because Im still studying at school but I tried to trade during my class in my mobile phones and I will never do that again it gives me nervous during that day. I think better for us to do trade when we have a free time Or break to not interrupt what we are doing . If you are in the work do your work and you can trading when you get home or after the work hours.

Of course, as this is what the benefit of trading is because it can combine well with anything and everything. In fact, I put myself into various such business. And believe me, there are many quality businesses we can do. Check this https://bulawayo24.com/index-id-business-sc-local-byo-164513.html, it shows so many businesses including trading can be done.

I don't consider trading at work because it will take your time in your work and that would be a bad idea if your boss see you doing nothing. I only recommend trading if you have a free time which is a day off not taking your time at your work. Trading requires patients and focused mindset without bothering to your work or at your trading time.

To be honest, I tried everywhere, at home, at work, when I'll be outside. I even got a trading chart in my car too lol. I really enjoy trading and I've concentrated a lot on it because it's really a good source to make a huge money if you predict accurately the market movements.

Yes because we are able to do trade any time and the time needed is not so cunsuming when trading. You can even trade while cooking buy and selling crypto is not so hard to understand that why every where we go we can trade as long as there are internet connection that you can use.

In trading there is nothing wrong as so many people use to trade and gain money so it’s kind of work only. We should trade not feel embarrassed about trading. Now a day people has smart phones and it’s really easy for them to carry their personal stuff in mobile phone even about trading we can keep our data in mobile phone.

I can't trade without use my computer and trade by using mobile phone make me not fun because I can open many tab for trading in mobile phone, always stay front of computer and make trading at my home. I feel not large when trading using mobile phone with slowly update of altcoin price and look too difficult when selling or buying altcoin to trading.

Maybe a lot of people will prefer on computer. So do i, but in trading which i am not usually do i usually do it at night so it is not disturb when i working. Market in my timezone  really active at night, maybe in other countries that dominate market still in day. Maybe problem that i face sometime less time to sleep, but to trade at work sometime i am not think about it. But if trade to anywhere and anytime and can be do trading in a mobile too, will be very good because in anytime advantage come we can take profit from it.

Lol! That thing tho yet it's savage.
I tried that before and it nervous me out of hell when it was my first time, like it's a matter of split of second. But seriously, swear I never do that again and don't want my work to get compromise.

Maybe I could glimpse to the chart but not totally doing trades.

you're the same as me. although I always check the price achieved for a certain time, I can not do it without a PC that I have. Well, I tried to do it, but it seems like when I do that at my work, I can't focus. Yeah, but I'll do it when something important happens. so far I have only checked prices and searched for other important information.

I am not working with company and focus my live with bitcoin and altcoin investment, every day I full my activities with bitcoin trading by using my computer in my house, I dislike by using public internet for trading because very risk with my bitcoin account data and I afraid some one can stolen my assets if using public internet,

Its not that complicated or confusing as people think, I use all the automated powers which exchanges provide and can easily trade without keeping the tab on all the time. Also the restriction in my office is not that strict so probably never felt a thing.

In my office, I do have a separate cabin and internet connection but I still don't do trading at the office. I am not a day trader rather a holder for me seeing the market rate once in a day or two are good enough. Avoid doing these illegitimate activities at the office, it may be embarrassing for you if you are caught.

With the type of job that I have, I am always tempted to do my trades using company resources or during working hours. I am in front of a computer from 9AM to 6PM. My access is open to anything including Facebook, some company blocks Facebook but in my case its not. So I have access to Trading sites and actually, it is during work hours that I discovered Bitcoin and Bitcointalk.org.

We have the similiar job which is in front of computer all day and we have a really nice chance to trade or opening crypto sites. But my office connection not allowed me to do that, so i'm using my own connection for seeing charts or opening bitcointalk at work. It quite refresh our brain after lots of work to do.

I have no intention of judging your choice but considering participating in bitcoin and crypto is a major job, it's really too risky and difficult when this market has too many manipulators, if we are clever and avoid their trap, that's great but if we are unlucky, the loss is huge, and without a job with steady income offsetting that amount, it would be a big financial problem. Coming back to trading at work, it's really like you said, with such public internet networks, information leakage can occur, setup at home is still better.

Yeah, me too I find it quite hard rather than trading in front of computer like there are some keys which is very small that my thumb can't fit to press it. But I never think of trading while working on my job, I'm a part time trader so that's maybe why I never imagine doing it. My personal preference on trading is really in front of computer and not on mobile though it offers portability.

I guess many do it on their free time or even they are busy they might be a trading tab in our computer. I also did some ponzi like mining before in my work computer but the btc value were too low that I wasn't able to transfer it. As long as we were able to submit and passed our work tasks then it's fine. It's a matter of skills how we will be able to do them both.

I used to use the company's computer to monitor the market during office hours, and I only use my personal computer or phone to trade because I don't want my information to be stored in the office. and I want to keep my account secure. Luckily, my boss is quite easygoing, as long as I do nothing to harm the company. Until now, I sometimes use the computer to see the market situation

That's good to hear, anyway, if you are doing your work then for sure they will be fine with it, me too, sometimes I do trading at work especially if I don't have deadlines too finish, or when I already finish my task at work, most of the time too, I am just having my lunch break for 20-30 mins so I can still have the chance to check the market and trade.

My company has been known to fire people for misusing a company computer. One of the things that they define as misuse is doing another business from the company computer. I think they could use that rule to fire me for trading. It’s not worth the risk.

I think why it might be a terrible idea is lack of concentration. If you are just casual hitting buys and sells for the hope of making money then it doesn't matter but real trading requires a lot of concentration and consistency which only comes when you spend a lot of time in this field and study about this field. What I have heard from most of the people is that this concentration is pretty easy to break which is why most of people trade in a clutter free environments at their homes with proper desk setup. Office would carry it's own certain distraction which could be your work related making your trading less accurate.

There is not too much free time when working. So sometimes I just use the company's computer to see the price of cryptocurrency market at coinmarketcap. And my company is very strict. If found out, we will be punished severely or fired. I only use my personal phone to trade when I have free time in the office, it's convenient and doesn't need to be always scared and alert

I never bothered to try and trade at my working place I see working as well as trading as a complete distraction, when trading I ensured full concentration thus I remained focus invariably I trade at home fortunately I used a 4 hour time frame as the minimum platform for my trading thus giving me opportunity to analyse trading set-up in  every four hours except working period.

Me too! But I am using the company's internet connection not the pc, because my bosses will see what I am doing, also my workmates arent reliable enough, once they saw what I am doing aside from they will becoming curious they will  start making rumor and will tell my boss.

It can be a reason, of course, that is the company properties and they could think bad about it. Aside from that, they could think also that you aren't doing your job as well. That is why( for me), I'd never do this, for sometimes I have some glance using PC but only when I was in a break this is to anticipate what the others can see.

We cant really avoid to those kind of workmates which do have that crab mentality where they do trying to pull down and try to impress their boss.so its much better for you
to avoid rather than risking to trade and let others see on what you are doing while you are still on duty.

We can trade though but be sure that you wont get noticed by everybody.

It depends on the kind of work you're into, but it's not really advisable. If it's an office work that keeps you really busy, like a serious accounting job, then I don't really see why you should be giving yourself stress by adding extra work on top of that, you might end up making a mistake that will affect your job.

Lots of exchanges these days now have mobile app, so you can just chill and wait till you get home, eat your food and take your birth before you start trading. You can just lie down on your bed with your phone and switch on the eye-care mode and trade with your phone, or if you still have the time and strength, you can go to your table and trade with your computer. But, it's best not to trade at work, wait till you get home or you will be distracting yourself.

Yes we can use smartphone if we want to doing trade if the time we are in our work even do it was to hard doing on phone but we can easily set the prices of coins that we need to trade.

I did not quit on my job because I know there are times we cannot get money in trading. Actually it was only my part time job in crypto to earn more and have big help to pay bills in my house.

This isn't a terrible idea since it doesn't consume a lot of time thus it won't interrupt your work too much. Besides, you can trade at anytime you want thus it doesn't demand too much. Computers can allow you to alter different tabs, allowing you to shift to another website or software once the priority task was completed (this should be something you're doing at work). At the end the day, time mamagement is really needed in order to perform both tasks at the very same time.

i think you just have to trade where or when you want, it cool money dear

Within these days, most of the big exchanges of cryptocurrency have a mobile version or application of their website and that is very convenient for the people who want to do some quick trading while they at their work. I suggest to do your trading setups while you are home so you can concentrate very well and when you get to your workplace, that is when you are going to execute all of your trading setups so it will be simply buy and sell.

Yes, since I have no restrictions on my computer at work and there is no ban on using smartphones at work, I have done transactions with both my smartphone and my work computer during my working hours.  I can easily access my accounts and wallets because our screens are not monitored and since I work in a financial institution, our computers are protected with 2 different security software.

Nope thats disrespectful I mean the compqny and your boss pays you to work in the company not trade, at the same time, you should focus in your work and to trading at home, bad thing about that is if you get caught , you'll be trading for the rest of your life, so better work on whats paying you, and thats your work

you must becarefull when accessing private wallet in general computers. no one know this computer was save for us. maybe there are virus or keyboard logger that injected. before we access our account trading private wallet make sure this computer save from any spy programs.maybe it will take time , but our money here could saved from any accident.

of course it's bad, first you break the rules of work even though it's not mentioned in as much detail as possible.
then your performance can decrease because you are too focused on your computer.
you should trade at home or after you finish working so that your mind is calm and there is no burden.

I only trade using my phone because it is not possible for me to trade using the company's pc and even thou it is hard but i still need to make a trade and not be left behind.

And i don't want to sign in my account to snother computer that is not mine and i have a trust issue and i think that every key stroke could make me feel bad using the keyboard when typing.

Oh, I ever 2 or 3 times using an office computer but it feels uncomfortable because trading while working cannot focus, you know that trading requires strong analysis so there is no mistake in buying and selling. actually it was a strange experience and not very impressive because the results of trading ended up not good. so I decided to stop trading while working, just not comfortable.

First of all it is not safe to use your office system for login to your crypto related accounts because it has risk of someone could access to your account with the credentials you entered in your office,because all of them will connected to master server which may record those things.

And we may not have enough concentration on our trading activities if we are doing other works along with so just do trading in the dedicated time if you want to make profits.

You can still use your office system to log in your cryptocurrency related accounts and you just need to make sure that you have 2fa authentication for additional layer of security. To be safe and to not leave any tracks of your activity, you can do all of your cryptocurrency trading activity at a private browsing so you don't need to mind the data.

Actually, I'd tried it before but it is of big difference when you are doing it at home or someplace that you aren't disturbing. And I'd find out that it never gives a good result as we can't have in focus on doing this, and I'd stop doing it at the workplace. Only I have to do now is to check and regularly track prices for I am also aware of the trend.

in my opinion, trading can be done anywhere and is very flexible, all you need is an internet network so you can access to trade and will not miss the right time to sell or buy

The things that people bother about is the privacy about our exchanges wallet, if we use computer at work or our office connection it will be more risk because our privacy and traffic could be detected by the IT section of the company. We better use our own device and own connection to trading at work

2FA might be a barrier but its not a complete security to crypto accounts.

4 Methods to Bypass two factor Authentication (https://shahmeeramir.com/4-methods-to-bypass-two-factor-authentication-2b0075d9eb5f)

---

And also as per the agreement while joining you wil be asked for not to use anything for your personal use from this office or you could be terminated.Don't lose your job. ;)

I need time to focus, and often set the time at night or holiday to be completely free from noise from social / work activities. It is not easy to focus on trading in a different scope, including mixing it with office work. As long as both still lead to productivity, then I must separate the two so that each can be effective and not collide.

Yes, I do business in my workplace and I do business on the computer. I used to work in my office There are many problems at work. I think this is a terrible idea because if you do not work with the rules of the office or you have a problem with the boss then you have to deal with the loss of your business often.

yes, coincidentally in my work there are lots of free time, and I use that free time to look at the market and trade. sometimes I also see this forum to just read and post, because I also make a living by participating in a project in this Bitcointalk forum. In my opinion, what I have done is not a bad idea, as long as what I do does not interfere with my work and interfere with my concentration in analyzing trade. maybe all of that will be a bad idea when the concentration in trading can not be fully because it still has responsibilities in a workplace.

Quick from worker and become trader is very funny where we can control every time which one coin have trade and we can get much profit than become worker in company, maybe if get payment every month about $5000 I think is enough become worker and save our salary for investing with bitcoin or ICOs, but if during trade and working is not good time for manage our trading time.

Why not if you can maximize your time and have the time, then it would be a better opportunity for you especially if you are an office worker and your boss is fine with it. Since I am only student for now, then I also make sure that during my class break, I am trading too or reading some crypto materials for me to enhance more knowledge.

I don't do that because I think it is unfair to the comapany where you work when you are using their computer or even internet in doing on your personal purposes. You can do your trading and other crypto activity without any hassle on your personal work. Believe me it is hard to do two things at the same time. Manage your time.

It depends, because there are some hour wherein you have slack time to or break time, then  maybe it is okay, for as long as you are not in service industry, as I do trading when  I am done with my work and still have time to do it, I make sure that I  am maximizing my time and fund, as I don't want to missed a day too. But, if I am too busy at work, I am focusing on it as well, so I don't think it is unfair.

   With available mobile apps you can trade from anywhere! I believe that many people use trading mobile apps, but I'm
not one of them. Mobile screen can't be compared with my 25 inches monitor, where I have everything that I need.
   Trading and crypto-currencies are hobby for me, when I have time I sit on my computer and I do what I need, but
in the mean while I have job and family, so I can't spend every minute on the app trading.

That's the advantage of having mobile app and internet over phone, while you are on your way at work or during your lunch break and while on your own way home you can have the ability to trade using your phone, so it is really important that you can analyze market as much as you could so you can have trade for a day.

I want to do it, but honestly, it is very difficult to do that. sometimes there is a break for that, it's just that it's really only used for rest. when I try to do it, I'm not very focused and think of my work. however, I think that traders will surely do that if they have the chance.

Those who trade can ever assume that they trade so act i do not apprehend if area unit doing this as a result of there area unit many folks who area unit creating a living doing trade there'll be more those who are presently learning as a student. we have a tendency to typically don't steal them for they too serve to form a living.

Actually lots of distractions when you do tend to trade on your workplace.The ambiance or the surrounding will surely not able for you to focus to trade.It will depend though yet there are certain individuals
who can actually perform their trades no matter where they are.

On my case, its really hard yet i do only have a small space of time for other non-job related things so i do trade off the rest when i do get home.

Yes. I have experienced trading at work when i am only on a break time. I only trade or check my trades at work twice a month because it is not allowed to do other things while i am doing at work and our boss monitors us when we are infront of our computer, that is why i only trade after i got home from work.

Yes I do, infact alot of times. Ofcourse everybody can trade at their lunch break time or cigrette break time but I sometimes trade at working hours when there is no work to do. That doesn't mean I'm bad at my real job! Lol

we really need to have proper time for trading and for this we all have to focus specially on day trading but if to are trading for long term you can easily hold your coin and you can work also keep checking the market price I also use to do this and I do it when I am trading for long term. I just keep all my trading connection in my mobile phone.

My real job, for now is not in front of computer and i am bad at trading in phone. So maybe not from me, but if can i will do that because sometime my trading activity is not really on active market. Usually i only set order and after it filled, i set sell order. Only like that actually wouldn't disturb we people to work and we can do both in same time. But unfortunately i can't do it.

set order is the best way when we don't have a lot of time in the market or in front of the computer, but even though we work at the computer doesn't mean we have time to trade properly because it won't be good for me, because all activities have at least their own time must be done comfortably

Trading is not like playing game where we can play depend when we have free time, trading need most focus and we have waste all our time with coin trading and never left our computer because bitcoin and altcoin suddenly become lower and higher price, we can miss chance with working and trading because impossible to get profit, maybe can space our time in night day for trading and in day for working.

I saw people commenting that they are trading at work and some are not but I find trading while at work/job very unethical because basically you are being paid for the job you have at a certain time and doing something else outside of your work. I don't trade while im off with computer coz it tends to make more silly decision and I feel trading at phone is dispersive.
Not unless when you are on break on your work, that is quite reasonable but that does not mean to prioritize the trading at that point.

How come users can verify that two factor authentication can be at your office location unwantedly. If the company monitoring the workers it will creating the problems for you.
For newbies I never suggest also to go with trading how come trading at such location can work for it.

One problem with trading at work is that you really need time to focus on the charts and your trades. You can’t really devote time to that while you are working. It would be very easy to make a mistake that could cost you money.

Still easy to devote your time between trading and working as there is an order button that you can use to actually control the profit (: and also I bet you don't even work 24/7 so it's not that difficult to actually manage between those two.

This is actually correct.

That question was asked for many times if I remember correctly. Btw depends on your job, if you are your own boss then you can manage time as you wish but if you are employee of a company and are on lower position, I highly doubt you'll have time/permission of that. If you work in bank as an operator, there is no way to trade from your work computer, depends on situation in overall because a lot of company controls what you do via keyloggers and that's done for their security.
In overall it's better to do one job on high level rather than do two and badly.

Yes I do but I use my own laptop not office inventors. I did that because already replace my open position and need more up the get my take profit area, wait for glory. That is bad decision before if I get caught my job is gonna. Please never do like me. Good trader know the right time and place for trading.

This is right! where your current job position will vary on your vacant time for you to make trades and as said if you are the boss then you are free on things that you do want to do.

No one can scold you if you do something which it outside scope of your work but if you are just a simple employee then its risky for you to do things because anytime that activity of yours
would really generate out some negative impressions towards on your work performance.

Sometimes. I don't trade nearly as much as I used to, so I don't trade that often at work (I get phone alerts when things start moving anyways), but there have been times when I've logged in to my exchange accounts at work just to tweak a few things, so I don't actively trade at work. I'm pretty busy most of the time with other work-related and non work-related tasks anyways, so that leaves less time for me to trade nowadays in the first place.

Depending on the type of job that you have this can be a very bad idea, your boss is paying you to perform a job and if you are trading then it is obvious that your attention is not where it should be, you need to be careful because depending on the personality of your boss you could get in trouble and you could even get fired, however if you have no option but to trade because the market conditions are too good or too bad then don't not trade from the computer that you have available on your job and do it from your own computer or your smart phone.

yes of course I have traded while working, because I think trading can be done anywhere as long as there is an internet connection, so you can still observe market movements and can remain to get profit

Sometimes it is good to break a rule. Just don't let your officemates catch you because it makes a mess in your career. But for those who don't required to stay at the monitor can make a double time job. Just like a teacher that can trade after the class. There is always a free time in teaching specially if you are a easy go lucky teacher. I will do that soon if I got a job.

But you can control price of some altcoin do you wanna trade during you work? awesome when you can manage your working with tarde maybe you work in front of computer and you can do with double job, absolutely fantastic where you will get double income from your office working and you can get much profit with your trading during you get good coin for investing.

I think you didn't get the question here. Of course trading can be done anywhere as long as there are internet connections. But you are at a work place, meaning it's a job and you have to take it seriously because it's where you get the money to feed your family. Unless you're willing to take the risk and be caught or not concentrate on trading, because for me it will take some time and focus so that you will ended up successfully in trading and get a good profits.

In the world of gambling, you cannot skip any time to trade as a trader; we must be aware of the price of the coin we invested. Today I prefer for short term trading so I must be mindful of the transactions happening in the market when I was in my house most of the time I check the market price and then trade and get profit in just an hour. Still, if I'm in our work, I trade if there is free time or break time because we cannot use any gadget in our workplace that is a workplace etiquette and better to use trading to have an extra income, not for a full-time trader.

Sometimes yes :D But I'm my own boss so it's okay. I trade all the time to be honest. And I'm super satisfied that coindeal has finally launched its mobile app, this is something which definitely helps me with daily trading.

Yes, but I only trade from my phoneit since I am too afraid of the work computers. I have checked them for loggers, spywares etc and I think they are clean but you never know.. However, I do use them for other side gigs (e.g. freelancing or to build my own websites) instead of procrastinating when there is nothing else to do. Good thing is I get plenty of idle time so I can make quite an extra nice extra income, for time that would otherwise be wasted !

Trading requires complete attention and large amount of your time. It's a full-fledge job in itself. I don't think it's possible to do day trading while you are at work neither it is recommended. You can be successful once or twice but in the long run trading at the office won't work, your office work may start getting affected due to this.

Please see the risk when doing this. Personally, I experience big losses for I couldn't double-check the selling price and accidentally I wrongly put the amount instead of 0.00001BTC, I put it 0.000001BTC... How was devastating and even out of my mind after that? That it serves me a lesson to learn and that is why I'd never do it again.

For you to be trading at your workplace, I guess it depends on the kind of work you do there.
There are jobs that wouldn’t give you an opportunity to be doing another business that doesn’t have anything to do with the company.

Imagine that you’re working an office job in a big company where there are lots of work to do, you wouldn’t be saying things like this. Even if it’s a restaurant that you’re working at as a chef when do you think you will have such a time to be trading cryptocurrency when there are lots of customers trooping in and out of the restaurant? You wouldn’t have such a time and if you try it your employer will get your a$$ fired!

Trading cryptocurrency should be your side job that you do after your day job and that’s when you get home.

It is not recommended to trade at work, it needed your full attention, you might get mistake if you do. But I think if you only want to monitor your trade then do it, it is more possible but if you gonna sell or buy coins while working is not good, especially if you want to do a day trading. Your boss might scold you too, and maybe the website you will gonna browse is prohibited in the network of your office.

Of course, most of the people will experience this type of loss because sometimes it is impossible to make a profit at our workplace. In my workplace, I can not able to open the website because our companies will use firewalls, that's why I used to place orders before going to the workplace.

If you want to avoid losing money then you should not place an order before you go to work because the market of cryptocurrency is so volatile and it can bring a lot of losses to you since you are not active and in control of you trade. You should only trade when you are at home so you can watch the market an monitor of something is still in your favor or not.

Will agree with you, but some people out there maybe think bitcoin income higher than their job. Sometime we see people out from their job and do full bitcoin trading. Moreover something like that they can do, and how about only trading when they at work. Maybe trading at work can be done  like when people work in internet cafe, since they are paid to see the users.

I once traded at work, but I didn't use an office computer. only trade using my own cellphone. I never thought that trading at work is a bad idea when we can focus. but when your concentration in trading, you feel disturbed by office work, I think it's a bad idea if you force to trade in your office. you better trade at home, with maximum concentration without being burdened by other responsibilities.

I never used a computer in my workplace to trade, it will definitely disturb my focus and make it difficult for me to make decisions.  trading requires a high enough concentration, don't let losing focus because using an office computer makes you lose money.

Ideally, you don't trade while working. No matter how good your focus, your mental isn't totally there cause divided with your jobs and your emotion might not stable. That's a terrible idea. You may feel okay now, but you don't know if your emotion cuts off your decision later, you could take the wrong decision.

If you do have that kind of work then focusing or minding other things will just simply affect your job which would in result to inefficient and might cause up some trouble.
So in this case its much better to let it pass and do only trades on your break times or simply when you are already in home.Dont risk your day job for a temporary time on trading.
If Boss would caught you in act then say goodbye if you havent given any chance.Some are strict and some might consider it out.

Yes trading is so easy that we can trade even if we are at work because for this we need our internet connection and our mobile updates along with us then we can gamble at work me also when getting free time I open my trading page and I learn trading from there or I keep checking market so when I feel coins are good to buy I just buy and put in long term trading.

Honestly, i have been do it. but i think its not terrible idea and no problem during not disturb your mainly work. ussually when do offline work it feel so bored, so better to fresh my feeling and trade help me to remove feel boring. beside i trade, i always do my job as well so its not problem with me and especially thing is i get double profit from that

no, because you will not concentrate, yes, although it seems easy, but you need peace.
unless your work is easy and you can do it without the pressure of work.



i see on your profile you are 39, and now you say u are student, its confusing.
which school student is 39 years old  ;D

Yes i do trade while in my office although with my personal laptop and phone and not with official laptop or desktop computer. Why I choose to trade at the is because am a day trader and I do see my signal while in the office and is not in any way affecting my job.

Yes, you have that point, unless it won't disrupt your time and doing your job well, it is gonna be fine. But my job is different from you, most of the time I've been in the look of the entire business operation which I don't have enough time to think about my trade. That is why after my bad experience before, I'd learn that it is the best time to trade when we are not at the workplace and we are comfortable doing this without any distraction around.

Well it is not a terrible idea at all as long as you can efficiently handle your work and your trades you don't need to be glued on your trades if you know what is applicable or appropriate for your time availability to trade all it takes is discipline and of course dedication to your work.

No one as such is able to trade properly during office hours because you have so many other tasks to do. Moreover you can simply sneak into your accounts on different exchanges but cannot make proper purchases. I also simply view my accounts during lunch break so that I don’t miss any important update. Moreover turning on notifications also keeps you alert all the time.

Yeah, it is a terrible idea. You will be losing focus on work and on your trading. You will perform badly on both sides thus you will suffer on your job evaluation and make huge losses on your trade. Thus, you will suffer financially and will struggle a lot with your life.
Lol i was kidding. I don't think switching tabs from time to time to trade will bring you any harm.

^ It's definitely a bad idea, just focus on your work and don't do anything aside from your work. Probably you can check your portfolio in a quick but if you give priority in trading than your work, you probably get fired. Trading needs to spend more time, just like 6-12 hours or it is quite good if you can online 24 hours a day. Just leave your job if you want to trade, or leave trading if you want your job. It's quite good if you are responsible enough for your job.

When you have good skills and are accustomed to doing it maybe it will be a comfortable routine to work on simultaneously. Because honestly, doing two different jobs at the same time will be bad if you do not have a mature plan, because at least there will be a quick initial step that must be done so that everything can go according to plan.

Trading not know about timing when you have trade on day or night because always have chance to get profit in trading, but when you doing with different job in the same time I think you need an extra hard working because is not easy to control with your trading, when you success for buying trading assets you don't know what happen later if keep left maybe few hour your assets have lower price.

the main reason I can't do that is that my focus is divided in two. to be honest, trading also requires a large focus and also a good way of thinking. so doing it at work will only make work harder and harder to focus on, especially if your work conflicts with it and requires you to continue to focus. but, I'm pretty sure many people have tried to do this.

No i did'nt do that. When i busy with my work i don't like trading. When i am fully free then i do trade

We have different point of view in doing trading. And also depends if we can manage our time in a job and trading crypto. We often cannot focus doing trading at work because of a restricted actions outside of our job. So usually in me I really do trading when I have free time to focus on it.

I resign from my real job and focus with trading in bitcoin and altcoin, I know many people claim I am crazy because leaving my best place position but I think most profitable trading with bitcoin and altcoin than working with real job without know when we got much money because working in real always have the same salary.

to be able to make a profit in trading, we must first be able to focus on doing it, it cannot be mixed with the time we have when we are busy working. and usually a veteran trader also if he can't control his emotions when trading because he loses focus then he will most likely experience a loss

I have done this before when I was still working for a brokerage company,
My ex-boss didn't mind if I traded at the office but he said "don't let it interfere with your main work".  I often fail to focus if I trade at the office because of the high target the company gave me,  trading while working is a risky activity.

Of course you need to spend a lot of time trading because without careful analysis, you will be the most risky investor. I don't usually trade at the company, but sometimes I open my phone to see the price of Bitcoin because it's the market I'm investing in. Maybe when Bitcoin price drops will make you depressed so it is best to spend time trading at home.

I don't prohibit people from trading but your odds of losing would be 90% if trading because that's where you need to focus a lot on your current job.

I agree but there are times that it needs to be done.

I don't usually trade while working since I usually focus on my job and do the trading later though I just check price charts while break and when no customers are around. I did one time traded while working luckily there are customers to deal with, my boss were. I get out of it with a warning since that is the first time amd he understands since the price are dumping hard at that time.

Sometimes it is very hard to manage both of them simultaneously, trading is an unpredictable job because sudden drops will not help us to make profits. With the minutes the prices will change and it is very hard to work simultaneously, for trading we need lots of patience.

Trade with computer more easy than we have use mobile phone where we can always update with change of bitcoin and altcoin price, many time I failed for getting profit by trading with mobile phone and I look easy and free space when trading using computer, I can open several tab looking some altcoin price and faster to refresh when my trading assets have higher or lower price.

Significant parts of my professional duties involve trading, so I'm obligated to trade at work ;),

also with crypto markets open 24 / 7, any serious crypto trader should prepare to be dynamic enough to react to the markets at irregular hours.

The advantage that we have in the cryptocurrency market is it is open 24 hrs unlike the other market like stock market where it has specific operating hours and also it is only open in weekdays and it is closed every weekends and holidays. I have job and I manage to trade cryptocurrencies, it is a misconception that if you are a trader you should always monitor the coin. I'm sorry to say that it is not like that, I can focus on my job even if I also trading cryptocurrencies.

If you have a job then you cannot be a day trader, I consider that in order to be an effective day trader you need to give it your full attention otherwise you are not going to perform your job or your trading to the top of your abilities, and it is the main reason why I am a long term trader, because I only need to spare a few minutes each day to watch the markets and I immediately know what I need to do and since I do this after my job there is no risk for me to lose my job because I was doing something else during the time I was supposed to be working.

That is cool. in general, my job is also trading, it's just that it's quite different from trading on the internet. so, when there are visitors, I find it difficult to open a trading site and focus on that. I have tried it, but in the end, I just focus on my work, and not focus on trading as little as I do.

That's a very good choice. Indeed, if we want to be professional in everything we have to do it full time. It's the same if we want to become a trader. If I may be a little easier in terms of time because I'm a freelancer. So when trading is not interrupted by anything.Maybe you can hire someone else to look after your trading business so you can start trading online

If you are a daily trader then do not know where and when you are trading, you are required to continue to monitor the daily charts on the Exchange. So I think all daily traders must have done trading while working. I also often trade when I work at my store.

True. Once a traders always a traders the chance of doing this business wherever you are is really possible. Though it isn't good since you can't balance things especially when you are also doing some rush things from your work, but the lust of doing and checking can't be resist when your mind reminding you of opportunities that you can have.

first the connection is not secured,second the computer is not mine so i might damage the files of the company if ever there is a trouble happens.

and besides trading can wait because my work is more important than my trading schedule.

and also i dont wanna be kicked out from work just because i have some other business in crypto.

I don't have a separate room rather we have a combined hall that is shared by many of my coworkers so it's only possible to look at how the market is behaving but not possible to do day trading at the office. I love my job and don't wanna lose it, so I abstain from it while at work.

taking actions in 24 / 7 markets are is very stress work I was trading in forex every day waiting for the trade set ups in front of computer is very boring this is big cons of full time trader , if I go outside for some work then also I watch charts and do trading 

If your position as officer maybe you can trade during working where you work in front of computer and manage with trading and your task work, but when your job as seller maybe you can manage trading with your work and you have choose which one must be focus, or you become seller on day and trader on the night can't working on the same time.

It really depends on the trader what he/she prefers, some are not comfortable doing trading at work because trading requires focus and if you are at work you can't really focus on your trade because you also have to think about work. Some also are good at multitasking and that they can juggle from trading and work at the same time.
In my case, I seldom trade at work, I only trade when we are very slack time or if I'm on break and got nothing to do but I am more comfortable trading at home because I can analyze better and can focus more.

This is not easy for everyone to focus on two different tasks at the same time. When you are in office, there is so much else going on and if you start trading at that time it becomes hard to analyze market properly. Often you are totally monitored in offices for whatever you are involved in. I am of view that visits your trading profiles when you have lunch break and simply turn on notifications if you don’t want to miss any important updates.

If you don’t get time to trade properly then you only should spend time to check the market price. Trading is the best way to make money in an additional way of earning. So if you get free time for lunch or tea/coffee we can spend that time learning trading or checking market values. I mostly spend time in trading for trading.s

For myself personally, I don't trade on the job because I prefer to have my full concentration on when I trade. Of course, I may have orders in for a few days so that means technically I trade 24/7 if I have trades open for days or even weeks on end. I like to have a really calm mind when I trade so I think it's better to keep your day job and your personal trading separate so that way you make fewer mistakes. Of course, if your job is swing trading as a profession then you will be trading on the job and that's pretty cool. I think it would be nice to day trade as a profession but I would need to get super good at it. Right now I only spot trade a few of my favorite coins as a hobby and that's fine by me for now. I need the steady income of a day job right now so am happy with things as they are for now.

It depends on the type of job your have. If you're a heart surgeon for example, trading on the job would be beyond irresponsible. Or if you're a security guard sitting in front of a monitor checking things out. Those are obvious. But if you work say in a computer lab, or in a job with lots of down time. Then yeah.

Not advisable, but if you can manage trading while at work. why not? Sometimes we have our own weird styles specially when do serious things like trading whether you have a boss or no, just do it if its benefits you most.

Before I quit my job, I used to trade a lot at work but I used to do it on my own personal computer but at that stage in my life, I was ready to make the transition to being an entrepreneur because my job just wasn't challenging anymore and so I used to trade in my free time, this was a time when trading could be done by any noob and they would still make mad profits because everything was just mooning like crazy, the good old days, I don't regret that decision though.

Why not? I have known to a lot of people who usually do this during their office time, they are not bothering at all because they are maintaining both sides very carefully, It's not anything wrong for me, if your assigned work could have done well then you can do whatever you want. Since you can trade via your phone set so you may avail of this opportunity whenever you want, but if your working environment doesn't allow you then it should not be continued because you need to focus on trading actively.

But the thing is, the company has the access in all their worker's browsing history and datas on their computers. So all of the workers does not have privacy in their offices. I am not agree in the idea of trading during office hours so if you have permanent job and you do trading as a side line I must say that you should do trading after the office hours or maybe at home to prevent invasion of privacy.

In a professional trader, I think it can be handle simultaneously. You can trade while you are working specially if you know already what you are doing in your company. Basically, you can hit two birds in a row if you have knowledge in trading but as what you said, it is preferable to concentrate when you will gonna be in trading to prevent loss.

Lucky you! That you entered in the market when everything was gold and you easily got hands on profits. I at times regret not joining the market earlier but that is okay if I am still making some small profits. If you have really quitted job and started some other stuff where you are owner, I am really impressed because this is what we need in our people i.e. independency and that is the same reason why people like bitcoin.

It is rare to enter the market perfectly. The most important thing to have in this market is to stay profitable for long term and since you are making profits even it is small, it is still a good thing because everything is working for you. Quitting job is not a good idea even you are earning huge amount of money in cryptocurrencies because in just a few snaps, the market can get you good.

can be through a smartphone, or even a laptop and personal modem, your opinion does occur in certain companies, especially Japanese companies. But as long as the productivity of workers is still within the established standards, I think doing other things is permissible, including accessing social media and YouTube in spare time. I personally do not have a problem about how to access it, but how to divide time in the same two fields and each clearly requires full concentration.

I was trading from work in 2017. I was basically trading at home all day and at work I was watching price most of the times, but there were so many opportunities and if I didn't trade I would have to skip going to work.
Imagine going home and find out that Roger Ver started shilling Bcash and basically your investment went down 30% and Bcash up 500%. I'd have to leave work completely if I didn't trade there. I basically doubled my btc holdings at that time after two days trading. I think I either had day off the next day or it was weekend. Basically I was asleep for more than 48 hours. I traded all of 2017 from work and noone said anything as there was no regulation against it and I was doing my job as usual.

I guess it just boils down to whether your company allows that or not. Some are pretty lenient when it comes to non-work related activities and browsing non-work related sites. If your company allows that, then trading at work shouldn't be a big deal as long as it doesn't compromise your tasks. If the company doesn't allow that, the i wouldn't compromise my job. Trading can be done in your spare time anyway. No need to force it.

That's why we need mobile apps, to be able to trade whenever we can. I have some free time while I work too, and sometimes I use that time for trading. Not every time, my trades are usually mid and long term, when the time for trading comes I'm trying to keep up from wherever I am.
Trading at work depends on what kind of work you are doing in the first place. Many people can't do anything else, while some of us have more free time on our jobs.

It's much easier now to trade at work if you can bring your mobile phone and have access on exchange website and set a notification if there is a movement in the price.

And i really like new apps created by exchange since we can trade much faster using our mobile phone and no hassle at all as long as you connected to the internet.

We should use a phone for trading as it will be reliable and easy to trade with the phone and we can carry it all around the world easily and will be no problem in this regard. There are so many companies around the world who gives break and Free time to the staff so workers can do their other activities easily so happens in Japan so I think it’s possible to trade at the workplace.

I was only thinking about the ramifications of trading in your work and what could happen if you were discovered, but you make a very good point, when you are trading you need to access your account and I make sure that my personal computer is completely free of any viruses or malicious software that may make me lose my money but I will never get the same kind of assurance on the computer that I use at my job, if anyone found out that you have access to cryptocurrencies they may install a keylogger and then get access to all your accounts and steal your money.

several times I tried but still failed, no longer about whether I can do special activities without being tracked by the office network system, but it is difficult to find steps to always focus trading in a bearish position like now, especially when I have to prepare files for clients with deadlines that cannot be postponed, for a moment I want to retire, but capital to be independent is not yet possible.

Trading is not the perfect place at the work, I tried many times to make a profit at work because market fluctuation cannot be estimated and this makes me lose money many times. It is impossible for us to predict which simultaneously, we cannot concentrate on the market, so it is good to place the orders only when we are free.

Due to the nature of my job I don't trade at work. Because its more focus demanding and not make trading error I just don't.

The fact is that many cryptocurrency users face a real dilemma, where they can not decide to leave a permanent job or not for the sake of trading in the cryptocurrency market.  Indeed, the risks in cryptocurrency trading are very large and there is no guarantee of a constant income, therefore, some traders work full time on a permanent job and at the same time use all their free time to trade cryptocurrency.  In which case, if there is a suitable moment during working hours, then it will certainly be used for trading.  Of course, in this case, you need to be more careful, because it is very difficult to concentrate on the analysis and market indicators.

I think this isn't a good idea. It invariably means that one is using up company's time for one's private business. It's time theft and it doesn't look good, if one has a conscience anyway. You do this and you expect to be paid in full for the time you use in running your own business? For me this should only be permissible when one is on lunch break.

You are not alone within the way many people such as you have made similar mistakes in their lives notwithstanding with tons of diligence and diligence, they need succeeded in doing things that inspire others to require to inform you that borrow and check out to try to better will hopefully at some point succeed.

I am not a frequent trader. But I do trade the trends. Recently when Bitcoin came back to $7050 after testing $6800, I knew it gonna try cross the $7500. So I longed at $7050 and exited at $7450. Decent and quick profit. I am not a regular trader and don't sit and study regular trends. Just cash in through some obvious and evident trades which don't require much of technical analysis and I am good to go. I just stick to my targets and stop loss. That's important.

So you must not tried again,  it is not good to use trading at work because trading needs fully concentration and a fearless mind and at work you must remain afraid of staff check & balance. It’s really bad to trade at work it may put you in list of bad workers but if you get free time for tea break or lunch, you can give that time to trading market check.

We trade in the workplace but if you do not know the trade then it is terrible for you. That is why you must know the trade before starting a trade You can achieve success by trading your talent.

Of course, no. Work is a kind of Hell where everyone simmer in their own individual vats of suffering and resentment. And trading is another a pain in the neck, so why to double your sufferings?
I have enough to worry about at work.

I will never trade at work, only focus on my work while working. This allow me to de-attach from trading and I feel more fresh when I come back to it

I did that in 2017-2018, since trading daily helps a lot of investors get profit, I take advantage of all the time I have to trade. And of course my work has to be idle to be able to do that and my boss does not forbid me. But now trading daily is no longer the same as before so I just check the price of the market while working

You are right trading at work can be danger because when you are trading you will have yo pay your full attention and you will have to trade in free time so when you are at work you might don’t get her proper time for it and make wrong decisions so better avoid trading at work but if you are expert and you can face everything you can trade even at work using smartphone or laptop.

I have done that last year and I admit that it was risky. I really got no choice at that time because my personal computer at home got broken and still on the process of replacement. It went fine but I have only done it once. It's really a big risk to trade using our work computer. There are some incidents where some wallets have been hacked because of being reckless. It's better if we'll focus on our job and just focus on trading when we have our personal resources.

Yep but it become distracting some time as i get involved in trading rather than focus on work. I think it is advisable to keep trading aside while working as it need full attention to read chart and it is quite addictive in my scenario and prefer trading at night.

I am doing the same thing. I pay all of my attention to my work so I can give a quality type of work to my company and to get a chance to get a raise in salary or even in a position. Once I am home, I spend most of my time looking at different videos and articles that might help me to become more efficient in trading and I always try to apply it through paper trading.

That is the numerous risk may happen when you are using another computer which is not really at your controlled. Either it hacked by the other person or getting confiscated by the company. On the other hand, it is better not to used the company properties for protection and also no question about our job performance. Just trade only when we have time and of course, not during office hours.

I have never used office property like a computer to trade crypto in my free time or whatever, and not because of hackers or anything that disturbed my trading assets, but I did not want to involve office work with my personal affairs.
I only trade temporarily or check using a supported smart phone and it will be more comfortable for me, and will return to trade at home using my personal computer.

It can create all sorts of problems at work. For example, imagine quietly buying a crypto and then a few minutes later while you're in a meeting, the crypto price either dumps or pumps hard, you receive an SMS message that your crypto is dumping or pumping but you can't get out of the meeting to close the trade and you sit there losing money while pretending that all is well.

I experienced trade on my work in my computer desk its so hard because i know the risk if i got new client my trade was pause for how many minutes or an hour so that i never try it again. And some reason why its so hard to trade when you are at work because my boss always see me what i am doing in computer.

I have never traded crypto at work or on an office computer. because I'm always principled always doing something in its place. if I am in the office then I will focus on my work and not think about cryptocurrency. because if I do both trading crypto and doing office work I'm afraid I will make the wrong decision because I'm not focused. I will trade crypto when I am at home.

never, in work ethics it is not permitted and trading at work feels very disturbing to me. I trade in need of a calm atmosphere so I can think clearly, especially in trading that is fast fluctuating,

the principle is not much different, but it doesn't hurt to just look at the price tracker on the android application and turn off the volume. I have a friend who can trade comfortably through a smartphone at work. I'm quite curious because I always feel uncomfortable when trading seriously without exploring charts using various complicated indicators.

Why not! I have enough time at office so that i can easily trade on my work place. On the other hand i have no restrictions about using internet and personal work. I just open 2 browser when one is my personal work and another is official work. So keep going ;D ;D

I trade at work but I do not use the computer in my office because it is centralized where information and data are saved in the main servers. I use my own laptop and my smartphone in order to trade at work. Even though I'm busy at work I still manage to monitor my portfolio because of my good time management. I also using different trading strategies that is suitable in my time and my skills.

I've never try that and it's a terrible idea because it's not allowed at my work. My boss has a capability to monitor softwares and webites we visit thus we wouldn't be able to trade at work. On the other hand if so happens that I have a free time, I just tend to open my account through my mobile phones to check my open positions. Sometimes during at work time, it's good to exit my position.

besides that, of course, the thing that I am very worried about when I have bitcoin on a trading site or wallet, I have never login outside my computer, because of course there is a fear of security from ignorant people who install software or hackers, and that is correct, just check on mobile phones, because now we are given enough ease to trade using applications on smartphones.

Unfortunately I have done some trade during my work. Because sometimes bought coins start bump, so I don't wanna miss to sell it.  Although trades were successful but I really don't like to trade during work. I believe trading should done by cool mind and during working time mind can't be cool always due busyness. I always like to trade on good environments, so I can decide in cool mind what should I do.

Lately I am not trading hugely, because I have holding some coins which has dumped huge. So likely it's very hard to recover by trading. And that's why rather then trade just holding and waiting for recover. But also I am not trading working time almost from a year I think. When I go room, after fresh I sit on PC and try to do something including trades.

Wow this is really sweet of your seniors that they never say anything to workers and unlucky at my side because we are always under observation and we can not gamble at work because if I will gamble Secretly I will not able to pay my fully attention to gambling then I can lose some money so gambling needs concentration and I can’t do at work.

A good trader wouldn't mind if they can not always control and monitor their trades because they already determined their position in trade before they buy a coin. So they don't worry to anything that will happen in the market because they already have the backup plan until the worst case.

I constantly follow the charts in search of an interesting point to enter the market (in my opinion). You can trade anytime, anywhere. The main thing is that this does not cause any inconvenience to anyone.

Of course. For reaching the desired financial freedom, I have worked hard to manage my trades on go, work, restaurants. The beauty side of trading is the given freedom that you can feel on every step you made while not worrying about the market performance. The trading bots and stop/take profit orders will do the job without human interaction.

Yes i did it and years of struggle made me confident and left my work and took crypyto trading as full time job,Its really too difficult moment you trade at work because you unable t give proper attention due to continuously other small task a big hurdle in your trade.But i learn all from that even small effort and will of can do take you a place where you want to be.

As a professional full time trader you are own boss and enjoy your profits and learn from losses.Even you make small here but motivates that you are doing for yourself.Trading is all about learning process and another move need more tricks and knowledge so do not stop learning.

But trade is a field in which you will need full attention and a total peace of mind so that you will not do any wrong decision while doing trade. While at the work place you will have to give time to any task given any time so at that time if you have opened a trade when you get a sudden task then you will not be able to manage and you may lose there.

Of course you can trade everywhere, but I don't like it. I have to be focused, otherwise everything around me distracts me and I make mistakes. And in the crypto world, even a small mistake can cost a lot.

I never trade when going to work because it will greatly affect my current job and if you lose money at your workplace it will be the day you feel bad. I think trade takes a lot of time to analyze and must always focus on that problem because even a small mistake will directly affect your current profit and that is what no one wants when participating this market.

However, you can check the value of some coins and order at a cheaper price than the current value but don't focus too much as it will only make you more nervous.

fulltime traders can do trading in home without disturbance , not all can do this many go to work and trade which is bad for trading but there is no other choice I was doing trading while in office for couple of years

There is nothing wrong in giving a buy order when you expect that there will be a correction and you do not really need to glue on the trading platform to see the movement quite regularly, there are many applications in the market that will alert you if the market reaches a certain valuation and then you can make your decision according to that, yes i do have my trading inputs during my working hours too.

Yes, but it is different from trading at home and working in the office. well for me i do trade at work but it seems like every time i'm at work the market starts to move and then i can't focus and analyze my trades in the current time so at the end i didn't want to work and trade as much as possible because u can't concentrate.

you are right that trading at home and working is quite different, as in home you can trade very calmly and could focus on the trade but in working hours i felt like i am doing very disturbed trade, i have trade in office for once or twice because of less spare time and also we are not allowed, but i tried it which was worst.

That is correct. You have to manage your time if you have a full time job but you want to trade also you have to fix your schedules like for example when you are inside the office, what you are doing is office matters only snd then when you reached home at night, that is the time for you to trade just as simple as that. Coz if you do this at work you have the chance to be fired by your boss coz we all know that doing unnecessary things inside the office that is not related to your work is strictly prohibited.

That is correct but only if a person want to do a long term trade because in long term trade we buy coins when get a signal and then we do our daily routine work and when we get the sell signal or we see that the price is now high enough to sell then we get online and sell our coins and then start our routine work. That things are okay and can be done easily when we are in office but if we do day trades and do buy and sell instantly to grab some profit in the rally then it will be a stressed trade and we may do a wrong decision in that condition.

That's depends on you,  because trading at office using your work computer are not good especially if you have some work to be done because you will really don't have focus on trading,  and maybe this might be the cause of your losses. 

same with me. i never trade at work. its very risk for my work so i always divide time such in the morning i go to work and at the night i trade. i know this condition can not take maximum profit in the trading, but i will not to take risk in my jobs because trading is side job so i did not do that and  accept whatever the benefits

It is not about the workplace or boss. It is about you. Trading needs a clear mind and focus to make a decision. It is an existing field of work in itself.

This is not really a surprise, trading is an activity that is incredibly hard and if you are trying to do it while at the same time you try to do something else then most likely you are not going to put enough attention to the markets and this will make you to commit mistakes that under ideal circumstances you will never make, while I understand the markets can move really fast and you will want to take action almost immediately at the same time it is better to wait until you get home to trade the markets.

Yes, it is more comfortable to trade at home, there will be no distraction and any hindrance , and probably can affect our trades, we need to choose the best trading location also, for us to focus on what we are doing, especially if we are doing a day trading, we can easily  be distracted by our boss or by workmates since we all have a work load or job order in our office when we do that, so best place to trade is at home.

I agree with this. You should master trading at home and practice all of your strategies inside your home because that is where you can think peacefully and there will be no pressure of any unrelated work or tasks from your boss. You can trade at work if you know that your strategy is working or effective because it will be fast and easy for you to execute it anywhere you go.

Strongly agree with you a place where we can do all our things with relaxation and concentrations is out home and for trading its important for you to be mentally relaxed. Working place sometimes does not allow to get access phone use that's why trading is not good to do at work place and if you think you will be easy to trade there then you can.

Yes I did. When I work an exchanger is always open in browser on my working computer. Trading is another way to me to earn, at least little by little. I am lucky that my boss understands that I doesn't say a thing about that. Anyway it doesn't take a lot of time and attention from my side to check the price for coin and sell/buy or whatever depends on situation.

As you quoted because you do not spend maximum time on trading exchanges and within few minutes are able to check the prices of coins, your boss has no solid reason for snubbing you. If you are giving him good work, he has nothing to do with your other activities. I believe everyone involved in trading goes for peeping into trading exchanges once in a while at workplace in order not to skip any important event.

Short term trading could be done this way. But once you are into this field with all your energy, then it is required to maintain your focus just on trading and avoiding everything else. Office work could not be handled perfectly with trading. Trading is a long term process so I think that preferred method is to keep the two works separately.

I don't like trading at work because my boss often check your work. Moreover, i cannot focus on 2 things at the same time, so the result will not be good.

I have quit from my job and now focus with bitcoin and altcoin as trading and investing or looking other way to earn bitcoin by joining bounty campaign or airdrop project, I can control and manage when working during trading or investing because I can miss many good moment where have to buy and sell assets with good price, when you working you have stop and close you bitcoin exchange account because you can't trading.

well i think it is not a good idea to quit your job and only work for bitcoin or trading because i have once quit my job for trading and also at that time the bounty and the signature campaign was easily available so trading and campaign made so busy that i quit the job but some days came that there was nothing to do that is why again join the job.

That is the thing which I want to explain here. The owner of the company or the boss of the company want you to work for him in his timing for that many will keep a check on you which will disturb you and you may lose in your trading. There are some people who are saying that their boss do not keep a check on them which is because they have trust on you and when they found you working even for yourself in their timing then they will start to keep a check on you.

I really hope that you do well but you took an incredible risk that in my opinion was completely unnecessary, one of the great advantages of becoming a trader or joining bounty campaigns is that you could do that in your free time after your work, so you could be earning fiat and at the same time earning some cryptocurrencies, this is important because if for some reason one of your sources of income began to go down or disappear you will have the other one to back you up.

It is good to hear that you have quit your job so that you can bring all your attention as well as put all your efforts in trading. This is common for everyone as trading is not easy to be handled along with any other job. You need to be focused every second because the prices could fluctuate anytime on the chart and hence it would lead you to bear a loss.

You may lose your momentum when you trade in your work, it will lose your focus in trading, also in company they can easily track what you are doing with your pc even though they will not come to see what you are doing , it will affect your work when they caught you, and you get fired in your work also.

I do agree  with your points that for trading we need proper time and proper place other wise we will not be able to pay full attention towards trading. At work we remain worry about getting trap etc. So it’s hard and risky to manage trading but if you have facility of internet and your staff does not mind your access use of internet then you can trade but with a lot of care and with fresh mind.

To be honest, i never actually have done trading while doing my job or at work and on my work computer because i will be really get in trouble to my boss if that happens, but i experience doing trading if i am on a break time on my work computer because i am freely can do whatever i want if i am not in my working hours.

trade at work is definitely a big mistake.  Because no one can do 2 things at the same time, so your main job and trade will be greatly affected.  If you find yourself better at trading, just trade and stop doing official work.  or you want to do both things, you should trade only when you are free.  That is the secret to help you trade 50% better.

Why will you want to trade at work when you already know that you will not give 100% attention to your trading,  even during coffee break,  it's better to relax the mind after some stressful hours at work than to use such break in trading.

Trading on work computer is totally a bad idea in my opinion,  once you get addicted to it at work,  you keep on checking your portfolio movements and such activities will definitely affect your performance at work,  because your mind will be diversified and we all know trading is all about profit or loss,  you cannot win always,  when at loss, this will hinder your performance at work whenever you check your trade calls,  it's best to not trade at work in my opinion

That's not being fair to the company of whatever business type you are working, you are spending your work time for your personal agenda. haha.
actually I am also guilty with that in the past, but I don't do it many times, I stopped doing it when I realize that when trading we need to focus more and we can't do that at work since our job should be our main focus.

either your performance in trading would improve but your performance or output in your job should definitely decrease.

I never did it and personally that was a very bad idea,
because it is very dangerous if trading on a public internet connection, especially on an office computer, this is very risky for theft and the data and funds in the exchanged account,

Mostly I do my trading at home but there are times that whenever I was at work and got a notification on my phone about reaching the target point or reaching the selling point (since i don't subscribe to trading bot) but i'm doing this about 3-5 mins just a really quick buy and sell however doing trading I do it at home. Also, when i'm doing it i'm very careful about doing this because i might be monitored on my pc or I can do it on my break as well.

Whenever at work you supposed to work and offer your time to the work and if they caught you you might get a warning or maybe you would be fired in worst case scenario, I think avoid it as much as you can.

I traded at work more than once. The truth is that having a diverse portfolio, I understand very well that at any time I can get a signal about a sale or purchase, depending on where the market trend will go.
Obviously, I do not want to miss this moment, especially because of the work. This can not be called day trading, but rather a rearrangement of stops or profit taking.

I have never done this, because I know where I have to put myself between work and also my side income. so I will trade outside of my work hours and also when I am at university, and I personally trade and monitor the market in the morning and also when I want to take a rest.

not just might  but it is a terrible idea   .

why  ?  simply because you are working  and if you have work you shall only foccus on it  . what if your boss and other workmates caught you opening an exchange and doing trade   . see  ?  you will get punish or worst you can get fired   .  would you love to exchange your trading career on your job  ?  if that is what you want and you think trading is your passion then you should quit working so that you can foccus more on your trades   .

Well then this is one’s practice or ability of multitasking. Especially if you are into a trade that requires you to pay attention timely like you have to check the values like in crypto, you have to look close to all the ups and downs you can mark figures for you and then can check the important one while job.

It really depends on type of your job. Many jobs in IT have more flexible working rules and people get payed for projects, not per hour. So they allow employees to check some news or entertainment while at work because they believe this can motivate people to be more productive later on. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you made some quick trades when getting a notification of price crossing some important level.
Also if you work at university, your schedule is quite relaxed and you have time in between your research work or lab work to check the charts and so on. Obviously not during your lectures though.

I do not know if it is such a good idea to trade in the computer of your job, even if you can secure it and you make sure that it is not infected by viruses if it is discovered that you are trading when you are supposed to be working you are likely to get in trouble, and in the worst case scenario you could be fired and that will be a very difficult situation to be in since very few people can sustain themselves with the money they make trading the markets.

I have never done this because my work in the real world is package delivery so I never touched a computer in an office

but if anyone has done it I think it is a very risky activity because if caught by the boss then most likely the person will be scolded

I think easy trading at work because after success for buying coin just put selling price on order sell then we are waiting our assets selling order completed selling or not, without have check every time with our selling order have finished and completed or not, just keep waiting when finishing for buying before coin have higher or lower price.

not only scolded in my opinion, the biggest risk is to be fired, because it violates office rules, and besides that it violates office hours that should work but is used for personal gain, but it would be a different story if the company owner also trades, I think this can be an advantage, because it can be close to the owner of the company because it has the same hobby.

sometimes if we do work that is not one of the jobs assigned we will accept the consequences. but sometimes we can take advantage of free time if there is, by making use of it by trading I think it's quite good, the most important thing is not to disturb the work and also other people.

only little company that runs on the trading. so just small chance that the trading support by company. i think its mistake if people do trading in working time because like you said that is only profitable by personal. in the market there is stop loss option you can use it to make easy your trade without do trade in working time

Sometimes it might depend on how urgent your current assignment is at work, but regardless of the conditions on what you're doing you shouldn't be caught by your boss doing other things unless he or she is like a close of you although that is kinda biased for your co-workers, it would still be best to avoid it. You're earning anyway in your job so you could just take it as a part time at home.

But there is no need to manually trade anymore! Platforms such as yanda, cryptohooper, mudrex let you trade automatically!

In the modern era of technologies and advancements, people do multiple jobs at a time. This is the need of some people to run their families and make themselves financially more stable. For others they do it for fun or knowledge. For part time job trading is a very good option. The only thing it requires is your time management and active participation in both tasks. Your work should not suffer because of trading.   Similarly in order to gain a good experience out of trading you have to pay attention to it also. Many people are doing it now a days as in crypto market because it allows you multiple benefits.

Yes at every workplace people get free time and thru use time as they easy to use there will be no restrictions. So I use to enjoy my free time with trading and learning about trading because its good for my financial problems because in my office I get more than two hours for lunch and relaxation so at this time I can trade better to be a good trader.

it's good to trade in your spare time, so that your brain does not focus on two branches (trading and office work), because trading is not an easy problem. After all, office computers can usually be accessed by anyone (fellow employees), aren't you afraid that the computer you use turns out to have malware that is ready to eliminate assets in your trading account? be careful friend.

Two hours for lunch and break better to use rest your feeling and make new inspirations for the next your working than trading. but another people has own choice with their activity maybe if they are trading in break time it can bring new inspirations for them, can make their feeling happy because get double profit from their company and their trade. during not disturb your work, its back to own person

I've tried it on my work computer a couple of times, but mostly I trade with my phone because it's more convenient and I can trade anywhere I'm as long as there's an internet connection. I don't think it's a terrible idea as long as the computer you're using is fully protected and the anti-virus has been updated and you're also making sure you log out whenever you don't use it, especially if the work computer is common to anyone at work to make sure that nobody can use your account.

I was trading from work before, I was essentially trading at home all day and at work I was watching price most of the times, but there were so many openings and if I didn't trade I would have to miss going to work. When I didn't trade there, I would have to leave work absolutely. Basically, after two days of trading I doubled my btc holdings at that time. I suppose either I've taken the next day off or it's been the weekend. I've been sleeping for more than 2 days. I traded from work  and nobody said anything because there was no rule against it and I was doing it.

The problem is can you focus on both tasks? Anyone can do both but not all, it's a terrible idea if you can't do your job properly because of trading.
Having a job gives you a stable income and if you lose that then it will also put your trading at risk because you have no source of funds.

Being well blanced types of person will give you this priveledge but like what you have said, it's not everyone who can deal with this and if you
failed to keep your time in the right way both sides of your sources of incomes will be ruined to the point that you'll be losing both.
Assess and keep being focus use your time in the right way and in the place and time.

Yes, it is simply hard to focus on two tasks at a time. Most of the traders who go on trading at work weren't professional traders. Only the professional traders requires more time, as it is the primary earning for their living. When someone has got a work it'll be enough to meet the life needs. Trading is secondary source upon which less time or leisure time is enough.

Specifically during break time, and a lunch break. But not really trading but checking the portfolio and price updates.BTW, I am using my phone for checking because its not good yo used the company's resources during working hours for personal gain /purposes.  ;)

This is about how we divide time, and of course the priority is the work that is in the office, I have also done the same thing, but I do it when work in the office is done and I have free time, there I use the opportunity to trade. I don't often do things like that because I really should focus on work in the office and don't let the office target not be reached.

what if someone knows about crypto and tries to spy on your account if you log in at work? I'm worried about that. I better do it on a mobile phone, because there are many trading applications that are good enough to use anywhere.

If you are doing a job that does not involve much physical activity and mental working. If you feel yourself fresh and workaholic you can go for trading. It is not easy to manage if you are doing a tough job. It also depends upon the resources available and the knowledge of the person. If you can manage than this would also give you extra profit, makes more money for yourself.

Agree with your opinion, it is risky trading at work and using an office computer. Your first risk is likely fired from work because our boss found
out by using office facilities for personal gain. The second risk since computers in the office are widely accessed by many people, then not only
is the threat affected by malware but there is a possibility we forget to log out our account. If our colleague is found out to be dishonest, you can
lose the capital and profits that you have already obtained from trading.

sometimes it is necessary to keep away from trading on computers that many people access, I think more if talking about funds it would be better to use a personal computer. if talking with money it would be better to keep doing their activities privately rather than having to steal time when in the office. or if you want to trade while working, it is better to use a Mobile device.

Yes, distraction will not help you. When trading, we need maximum concentration. because we need to seriously analyze the chart and if we are distracted by some other factors, our decision making will be inaccurate. I used to do that at the coffee shop, when I was addicted to trade and it was really silly. As a result, I did not serve the best and my trade results were not good. after that boss also fired me and I was extremely embarrassed. So I recommend you only do 1 job at a time, don't try to trade while you have to do something else.

Trading could never be done in office hours. If we look more deeply then I think that it does depend upon the kind of job that you are doing. There are many people out there who work at places related to the finance such as the banking systems or others. They do get benefit because they can easily trade at work. In fact, their job benefits them as it is much relatable to the crypto market.

Yes, we can trade at work and if we get free time in working place we can use that time for trading I like to trade at break time or at lunchtime. Carrying phones all the time at work can make you get in black so stay careful about it and always trade-in free time only so you will not suffer from anything and will be able to trade easily.

This will also affect your trade badly. As office computers are monitored, someone else can get your confidential data. They can adopt your keys. There is a big risk of losing your trade. Your mind will be split between the two and you will not be able to excel in any field. In order to gain good results give your whole attention to work when you are at work lace and involve yourself in trading after that.

yes you are right sometimes the computers of offices are under the control of the office head and nobody knows that when will the head find out your all data and may get greedy about your asset, i think this is the most private thing to be treat, i always open my accounts in my personal computer in my home not outside so that my asset must be my secret.

Yes, I do, even I do trade in my class! Because you never know when the price will go up suddenly! If the price goes down, I trade to convert into USDT or sell, even two days ago, I did a trade in my Parasitology class, lol!  It's all about you. If you can manage your works with the trade then do it. But it can not help you most of the time, because trade needs passion and attention!

We don't know with bitcoin up and down suddenly and have trade during working or not, I make alarm notification on application checking of bitcoin and alcoin price, when price is up I know from alarm notification and I can open trading for selling or buying, we can't prediction with bitcoin price will grow up when we sleep or we are working.

Yes sometimes, only have the time to trade and when there is a chance to buy or sell coins.. because my company not watching my activity everytimes, and i think no problem during not bother my mainly work. it can be another source income for me its mean this i can get double profit for my self.

Of course, it's good to be able to work and trade in parallel, but it all rests on quality, if you were able to spend enough time and learned to trade on the plus side - then you are the winner.

You know, in your case you can say that you masterfully turn your time into double profit, trading at work is expensive).

Maybe some employers legally use devices on network to see what is going on, others might use keystroke capture software or devices - so it is not a good idea to use a third party PC to access your trading account whether at work or anywhere else.

I would stick to using safe laptops or PC in your own home just to be on the safe side.

When you are applying to a company it is important to know and understand all of the rules and how they treat their employees so you can have an idea if it is advisable to do trading at your office. Most of the companies are not that strict that they monitor every small activity of their employees so I think it is good to trade at work but to make sure you are safe, just bring a pocket wifi and a decent laptop so you will not get monitored.

I completely agree with your point of view, if your job is linked to crypto in any way, that would give you the background knowledge and you will be more comfortable in dealing with both at the same time. If you are from a completely different field like literature or science than you will not have any knowledge about exchanges and trade. This will require much effort from your side. There will be more chances of errors from your side in both types of work.

Yes, when but i have control i entered for a trade that will don't eat my time watching the chart every minute Trading at work is not good however as long as you can handle it without any problem and you will not lose because of trading at work then its fine. Don't make things complicated if you cannot trade at work simply don;t trade at all

Well, if you have a job as a trader then by definition you are just doing your job and you could easily trade your own account and make money that way and most people will never realize this, but if that is not the case and I guess that is the case for most people, I really think it is a bad idea to trade at your job, if you do it you could easily be fired since you are doing something else with the purpose to obtain a financial gain and you are not doing your job correctly because of it.

I think it is a high risk strategy to use work PCs especially if you have a phone to hand but if you felt it was safe and your PC was protected and nothing untoward happened afterwards then that was good.

Does your employer use any key-stroke software or have T/Cs stipulating what you can and cannot do on work PCs?

There will be a distraction if we will execute our trade in a kind of environment that we are not used to trade. I only prefer to trade at home because of the convenient feeling where I can strategize and think very well. But there are professional trader who trained theirselves to trade in all type of environment. That kind of trader in the another level and we can only achieve it through experience and studying.

Indeed, I once used an office computer for crypto affairs and often did because I was lazy to bring a laptop from home for work. I trade on office computers in various exchanges and I feel safe because my office computer is just me that uses it, and at the office only I deal with crypto. My friends don't know what crypto is all this time.

no and never compromise your accounts from other internet server and also never compromise your companies file also in this way everyone will keep safe.

i have once tried to do trading at work but after that there is a thread crosses me here in forum saying that using other internet is not safe so i decide not to have done in other area than my house.

though now i know that my trading desire has ended instead i will choose Holding since then.

Yes some times it become difficult to gamble at work but some times it become easy  if you are allow to trade at your work. I am not allow so better Avoid trading as it needs proper knowledge about trading and then you will have to pay full attention towards trading. So don’t trade at work and trade only when you are mentally relaxed and free from other works.

At the workplace, it becomes so hard to trade as you will have to keep eye on market if want to trade. When you are working then it’s hard to manage so if you get free time from your work you can trade at work but it may reunite your reputation in office or your workplace so be good at your work and trade when you are free from work good people knows well how to manage both well.

I resign from my office and keep focus with trading and investing in bitcoin, during still work in the office I can't focus and manage when I have trade and work because bitcoin and altcoin price growing up not wait for my time is free, many time when I working bitcoin and altcoin have potential growing up to higher price.

"Trading at work" The worst day in my life, where i can't forget it.
I am still reember when i do trading at chinese market huobi, buy some Litecoin white leverage market, i just open it, not setting any cut lost or take profit, because i think its will be profit easily during FOMO market, but the market is down, just a quickly down, "Flash dump" and i lost all my 2.5bTC thats make me can't forget it, don't try it bro, just trade when you ready at your computer, don't use office computer.

That's really sad to hear, that's why it would be too risky too if you are trading at work and you have full load, and you have boss around you so it is not really recommendable.

As per me, I am trading at work when I just done with my deadlines, and when my boss our out, it's just likely twice a week.

i always take my free time to learn more about trading and sure to update about the news of coins because new help so much price of coins. not all traders were able to spend enough time and learned to trade will always be the winner or always get the profit every trade. not like that winner have to pass the lose before you are winning

in conducting trade against cryptocurrency, the main key so that we can be profitable of course must be able to focus on the trade that we do, because to be able to read market charts requires calm and good emotional control. a successful trader of course he will not do stupid things because trading during working hours where we have to divide the time we spend on both

In cryptocurrency, trading is the most profitable transaction today, and it depends on the user or the trader how do they manage their transactions to make more earning. Today one of the problems of the trader is getting feared to the deals they made, and I think trading in work is not a good idea because in just a single of time you can trade, but you cannot monitor the transactions or the market price because you need to focus on your work and it is not good because if we are talking about trading, you need to monitor the transactions because in just a single minute may change a lot in market price. Also, it depends on your trading technique how it will affect on your income sometimes, you can make a wrong decision because you focus on your work that may cause of loss of income.

You can trade at work lol, and trading is just watching the price chart and click sell or buy if you want. For me, it's possible as long as your office and boss are not strict with regards to that. Trading at work is just fine if you are applying to use your phone and access the internet.

If your firm is strict with regards to using a cellphone at work, you should consider long term trading considering that you don't have enough time to monitor day trade or scalping. Long term trading is the best trading strategy if you don't have enough time to monitor and analyze the chart.

it is true that trading must be done during quiet times because it will help focus. maybe if trading in a company would disrupt work and blame the rules and the level of focus would also be disturbed, so I think it would be better at free hours to trade.

Always trade although working at company because bitcoin and altcoin raise to higher price without waiting for we are free time, they always getting to be in higher price we we sleep or busy with our job, so stay tune with your mobile phone and keep alert after bitcoin want to growing up with higher price.

yes you alright, trading is need concentration and you should focus on this. although there are some people can trade beside doing another job but also a lot of people should focus on their trade. trading at work is also not good enoght because when your big boss know about it, maybe you lose your job

Do you only do that when prices increase? Because that is the reason you do trading even when working. Yes, you can indeed use a mobile phone to keep trading, but I'm not sure you can do it well, instead of expecting something right there to sell or buy, but I'm not sure it will be right on target because the pressure we have when working will make we have no control and tend to be in a hurry.

true, I've tried this, honestly, I can't focus on trading, not even the work I do. Well, I find it hard to focus on two things at the same time. besides, I feel unprofessional. so, I will only trade when I am truly free. however, I did it to reduce the error that I did.

This kind of attitude is very dangerous, what are you going to do if one of the people that work with you finds out that you are dealing with cryptocurrencies, they could steal your password and then steal all your money and you will never know what happened, it is better that when you trade you only do it in computers that you know are completely safe and that no one has an easy access to them otherwise you are taking a huge risk since you are trusting that everything is going to be fine and one single mistake can be enough to lose your coins.

Yes, the right time is always right for traders and investors we should trade in percent time with perfect coins. We can not trade at the wrong time when you are not free or maybe doing work along with trading can make you suffer than earning. That's why I think it's really hard for me to trade at work and we should fix the proper time for trading.

Indeed it's important to learn trading well and never expect  that you can trade at work place because trading needs proper time and place and I think at my work place I will not be able to pay attention towards trading when i will be working I can earn good from trading so better keep your trading and working away from each other and trade only in your free time.

Trading at work time is not a good Idea because once you caught by your boss possoble for you to be fired, I know trading need to check regulary or every few hours to see if they have any movements happens byt they have right time like your launch and break you can do that fast and also using your work computer for trading is not a good Idea that is property of your company not yours but if you use your own that is okay.

But I know many workers who are using their work time for trading if they are trader if they work on the office that have internet connection theh do that.

i've done it several times. but the problem is i have to connect internet from a general wifi of the office. that makes me feel uncomfortable. i don't know everybody in the office and it looked kinda risky for me.

Trading may do anywhere and anytime you want, but you need to manage monitoring it. At work, you need to focus on what you are doing so I think there is no time to do a trade even in your break time. There are times that you need to choose what thing you should prioritize in a certain day. Today, you can do trade using your phone so you don't need to use computers. That workers you knew, I think are the one who used mobile phones because it is handy and easy to hide.

All in all, it still a bad idea to trade at work because you can't focus on two things at a workplace and also you can't excel on multi-tasking, one should be prioritized and monitored. So use only free time to trade. If you badly needed it then make a free time for yourself while making your day still productive.

That's risky as maybe some day the office staff will complain against you so we should trade only when we are fully comfortable. It needs to put fully concentrations towards trading and trading blindly is not worth acceptable. I often trade when I am free and not at work. At my work place I only work or sometimes when I get break I check the trading markets.

To trade crypto at work, well for me is hard to do it because i can't follow price anytime and i have a lot of work to do, even if i try there are software and watch all the job we do.

Not only that, you're also risking your investments. Though secluded from the public network. Work internet still connects on a single server. And using a computer like that is pretty much similar with connecting to a coffee shop wi-fi. So there is a chance of your information being tapped into by anyone who can get their hands on all of the information stores on the main server. Plus, most offices have rules that no computer shall be used for personal interests. So that already puts you at risk of getting fired.

However, if your boss is cool with it, then go for it. Just make sure that you cover up or delete your search history at the very least in order to ensure that your information is safe and secured.

There is nothing terrible here. I do trade at work almost every day during my break down. This is am avenue to get passive income if you know what you are really doing. The only things is that I do go long for a week or more

Yes, I do trade my workplace but I feel there are tons of risks involved I work on a corporation were performing on the pc during work hours are often avoided if the facility goes out or when others come and sit at the pc because many don't realize this job. Usually the office computer isn't browsing.

Although we can enter the market during a break at work but this amount of time is too little, it may even fall at an inappropriate time, our participation will not be most effective when trading is required a regular and long-term focus, time off does not allow us to last too long, each company has a limit to avoid employee laziness. Besides, the working environment always has peak days of the day, using too much brain for two different jobs will be very tiring, one day can be easily overcome but many days will make mistakes

That should be realized because at recess that is the time for us to refresh our brain and body to continue the next work remains optimal, making resting hours for trading will make you not have good concentration because it uses limited resting hours for many things like eating, trading etc., of course it is very forced your brain to work more extra. So take the best time to trade when you are at home because it is the best.

I also trade at my workplace, and I enjoy that. I think trading can be done anywhere as long as there is a right time. We can trade daily or short term at work, but you need enough time so that it does not interfere with your work which can cause you to be fired by your boss.

I never interested with working at the other companies during bitcoin and altcoin worth to get much profit and keep stable give us earning every day or every week, keep waste all my time with trading and checking which one coin have to buy, I left my real job and take care with trading and investing business because in this way I am boss but not when working.

Using an office computer for trading is risky. You could lose your job for this. Because all the office rules are without official work, you can not do any other work with the computer. On top of that you have to think about the security of your assets. If you login to an exchange account using a public network, then your account may be hacked there. I have seen many such incidents. And that's why I use the exchange mobile app on mobile phone when I'm at my workplace.

Its fine using an office property as long you used it at the right time, example at break working.

Sometimes i used my computer office for watching a youtube and checking my crypto porfolio, as long you have a good securit example like 2FA, Confirmation Code Via SMS & Email for each time you login/wd should be fine.

yes, in my opinion that's the worst idea, if employees in the company / office trade Altcoin at work / office, what else in this government is very bad to do it.

A professional does not involve office work with personal work.

I do trading at home never bring individual problems to the office, employees should serve the people who need it, instead we have to do our work in public places, we are paid by the government to serve the community.
Not vice versa, individuals do personal activities in the office that can harm many people, because the individual is not professional in sharing work time.

Yes because i will spend my most of the time at my office so don't get much free time to trade at home, and yes it is difficult to trade at your work  you have to handle both the work but Money makes me to do it.

Agree, if you want to trade in the office you should use smartphone only, it's safer than trading using an office computer. But you also have to keep your work time in the office, lest your boss reprimand you for your negligence in trading. Trade when the break time comes.

Making transactions at work or on the computer is what happens to me often. This is also a way for you to save time. You can do the same to prove what I said. Moreover, when you invest in cryptocurrencies there will be no transaction time limit.

For me, I don't want to try that kind of idea. In my own perspective, if we try to trade at work it looks very difficult because in trading we need a lot of focus to make a plan and strategy before we trade, so that if we multi task it during a work time it would be a terrible idea. If we caught us in making trades in work hours our boss will getting mad because there's so much work must be prioritize before anything else. I suggested if necessary needed to trade, well do it at your break time not in work hours. 

I do trade at work but I don't trade on our work computer. I do all trading on my personal computer or on my phone. One thing that can make trading on my office computer a terrible idea is that, I may not be there forever and the system is not too secured for my account details, it could be invaded by anyone and could expose my account to hackers. Why I could even trade at work is that I am usually alone in my office so, I have some privacy

Aside from it is very restricted for us to browse on the internet through our working PC, any means of communication to the outside is also prohibited when we are inside the working area so trading will be very impossible in my working PC. But I thinkif it is not strict , I will just visit the site or check the coin price only when I am not busy.
Instead of the computer, I used my cellphone in trading. It is OK and I do not encounter any problem yet

Why would that be risky?

Unless your boss or your officemates are hacking through your PC or phone. To be honest, I am doing that at work but I am not always trading. I trade when it is my partner's shift but when it is my time, I just check the movement or the price changes that are happening. I think that is not risky since there are a lot of applications that you can use for that. 

You just said most of the work is completed for the sake of cash I traded my business but the office computer wasn't ready to do so If there's tons of labor stress I take my laptop and check out to try to to the maximum amount time as I can. Like you  i can not do tons of labor at the office so I roll in the hay for the sake of cash unless I feel good back home.

Having a good background with your company first and foremost you will think about securities of your account, the possibilities that being exposed or being hacked by the network admin is very possible. Work computer is not yours personally and every IT guy can check it out without your knowledge
so be very careful especially traders who have a huge amount of assets to protect, it's always better to use your personal devices and have all the securities that you need to protect your money.

Yes, It's too risky. We should not do that. Even we should not visit any other site which is not related with official works. I did not done trading on any other official computer even I did not use any others mobile/pc to do trade. But I remembered one day I tried to login bitcointalk on a centre where I did a Course.  

Yes, i have my notification on https://cryptopanic.com/ (for news alert) and https://www.gettradingedge.com/ (for technical analysis alert) mobile apps. if those alerts are really great trading opportunity, I will go into toilet and trade with binance mobile app  ;D ;D ;D

I never tried trading at work or while working, I just think I needed more focus while I am trading and definitely the workplace is not the perfect place for me.

You don't know what other people's thinking actually. There might be the evil users whose actually using your credential by using public wifi, that's wifi it's not recommended to actually enter your credential on public wifi unless it's trusted. There is always a risk on everything.

What applications are you using?

You probably don't know how easy it is to intercept packets that go through wifi. Read about packet sniffers.

Also you never know what people have been doing on computers at work. There can be some spyware installed and you don't want some random coworker to know your password.

I am talking about VPNs, there are a lot of them, I don't to list all of them.

Also, there are a lot of ways you can do to take care of your personal files or informations in your PC when you connect to wifi. From enabling firewalls to turning off your sharing capabilities. You don't need to limit yourself from this since that would also limit your profits. I know that alot of us are just taking care of it but this really depends on us.

I think it's a bad idea to trade where we work, because we will face some risks. As likely to be fired if caught by the boss, the use of
public wifi at work can cause our account to be hacked, usually the device at our workplace there are many viruses and malware, and when
trading will not be able to focus because our minds are divided by work in the office and this very dangerous can cause losses. So from that
I never trade at work.

First if you are in work that computer is property of your company and that is not yours and all you need to do on that computer is related to your work. But if you do that on your free time it's good but make sure use your own device not in your company device.

I don't know the protocol of the company about what is the limitation that you can do to your work computer but others traders who work for sure arw doing trade at work.

Yes, our main job responsibilities will never be best fulfilled when the terrible concentration of trading will distract us from the work around, the only thing we care about is the prices and numbers, and unfortunately, supervisors see such issues, that would be a critique and deduction of our salaries, future results can be the influence on job advancement. The most negative point here is that our assets may fall into a public state with this connection, this community connection allows hackers to attack too easily, so sometimes observing market volatility is possible, direct trading is not recommended.

Yes I used to trade at work but I have never used my work computer to do it.
I only use my personal computer and my mobile phone to trade  for security purpose.
I don't want to risk my account and money on it,
We couldn't be sure that the IT of the company wouldn't find it out if they check all of the computer and all of the browser history.

We cannot pay more attention when doing trading at work. Much better to do it at home where you can focus and a secured environment. So I also never tried doing this when I'm at work and also at home I am at ease.

Trading at work only makes me feel more tired because trading takes a lot of time to research and must always focus on market fluctuations. In my opinion, it is best not to and only observe this market at work because you need to do your main job well. In addition, if you trade at work, sometimes you will be psychologically and if the market collapses, you will feel very pressure.

though i know that this is risky for both Me and my Company but i can't help myself sometimes to check the market and look if there are potential currency to buy or to sell.

but i only do this very occasionally and not that often,because i consider the risk and the the limit of time to wait and check the movement.cool so you leave your office job and turn into trading?

It is always important to understand what is more important for you and concentrate primarily on the most complex and most important tasks.
If trading during work interferes with your work, then you need to build your day in such a way as to do your work as efficiently and efficiently as possible and only then engage in trade.

I rarely even check my phone when I'm at work since I'm in an always-sterilized environment handling live samples of different organisms in the laboratory. I can't find time to even check the forum nor whether someone has texted me, but I can do some checking on the forum and the price during my lunch break which is quite long (2 hours). Personally, I view people who risks their jobs in doing such a rash thing as someone who are careless and are willing to use the company's resources for their own gain. It might be hard but there are certain limits to which you can do your stuff, and it's certainly not in your workplace. Besides, how can one even focus on trading when they are pre-occupied with something else?

As a rule of thumb I try not to use any other public computer's VPN to do my trading as I get paranoid of multiple tracking and potential risk association to my account. I do however, do regular market checks from my work computer and only in certain situations, when I really have to I may do a quick buying/selling but on my phone rather than the work computer.

It's probably not absolute to not use your work computer for trading, though this I feel also depends on the company you're working for, but if you do I also think it is not the end of the world!

I never try trade at my work because its not easy and I'm so busy in my work. I only trade at night because its my free time I trade 2-3 hours everyday after my work and the result is good because I got profit everyday but only small amount. So not good to trade if you are in work because you cannot focus on it.

Exactly when worse comes to worst i might got caught by my boss and at the same time lose the trade. :-[

As I said before, if you have flexible working rules on your job then it is okay for doing trade at work.
Actually, I hardly make any trades during my work hours.
1- In my work hours I’m busy with my work, so I might make wrong decisions while trading and
2- It hampers my work the other way around.
