Is weekend trading good?

[Zanab247]

Very good, because that is when some people will  like to settle down to focus on trading not to make any mistake that will make them to experience lost. It will be hard for you to see crypto traders who don't have other job or business they are running in their various areas and some of them created weekend for the best time for them to trade to earn what is making them to prefer weekend trading and it will not going to affect other business or job. I know some people will not accept weekend trading, because majority of them don't have other job they are doing apart from the trading, because they will not have much time in other activities than trading.

To me, I guess weekend trading is very good, because market price can change sometimes and it will help to know if some traders have started trading their BTC or they are waiting for the price to pump before they can take action to start trading.

I do below that everything should be done in moderation. Traders should have rest times which is healthy and a safe way to reflect on their trading strategies and also be refreshed to start again. However , there shouldn’t be a hardcore rule that it must be the weekend. It can be anytime they decide whenever they best feel comfortable.

In fact, it is always perfect for trading if you can moderate it properly and understand the market movement. Many people like to trade on holidays, while many prefer to spend time with their families and some prefer to travel. However, trading is not completely closed on holidays. I often see the market on holidays. Sometimes I see the market pumping and sometimes it is down. However, the trading volume in the holiday market is comparatively less than other days.

Resting during trading is subjective to the person and also the kind of market the person is trading on that allows resting on some particular days. The whole trading market is very vague and even trading for five days out of seven days is enough to make you a lot of money and still take some days off to trade. Addiction in trading will mean a trader willingly taking loses due to lack of knowledge of the market and forcing the market to make the most money out of it. Let’s take our time and reflect back on the market, it can be traded in such a way that we can’t get addicted to in anyway.

Trading should go with schedule inorder to track ones habits and progress, I know that some people tend to love weekend trading because it gives them the opportunity to rethink, restrategize, and make good decisions in regards to the trading, some say they get a different mindsets whenever they trade during weekends  either ways a trader goes with what works best.

Well, as far as they are trading rightly, it doesn't matter of it should be on weekends or week days, all that matter is that they are doing it in the right way and with the right mindset, and also the should trade with the amount they can afford, because trading is not something one can predicted as the market does fluctuates but having the right information will help them in achieving their goals and will have lesser chances of losses.

I am not referring to spot market or convert because that should be opened 24/7 bit I am talking about the derivative trading where most traders are concentrating on.

The traditional market was no joy, because whoever is in this market is not as a corporate worker who wants to sit and enjoy the weekend or the market when it is off. But the timing forced them to enjoy that time or at least forced them to focus on something else besides trading. Because thinking and analyzing the market all the time is not healthy for anyone.

Even if someone is making a lot of profit from that time spent well, but it is not healthy, managing a balance between work life and personal life is important and these days people are more focused on their fitness life so when they are doing it, they think, let's monetize it too which is again unhealthy so avoid that. Find a hobby and don't monetize it because it can kill the joy.

Traditional market will close for 2 hours daily while it will not be opened throughout the weekend. Is it not a good thing?

The reason I asked is because some people are day traders but they supposed to have time to rest. What if they are becoming addicted to trading, as the market is not closing, it may significantly have bad effect on their health.

But this can not change anything, the best is that we should avoid trading addition. We should not open position or trade in the night. But I think the traditional way is better as people will not be able to trade during weekends when people supposed to be having fun.

I get your point about traditional markets forcing traders to rest, but I’m not fully convinced that fixed hours automatically solve addiction hence some people can still overtrade within a limited window. In fact, 24/7 derivative markets can actually offer flexibility, letting traders manage positions on their own schedule instead of being pressured by opening and closing bells. At the end of the day, discipline is personal, and market hours alone won’t protect someone who hasn’t built healthy trading habits.
