The typical day, Paris time

A profitable trader does not read the market better than everyone else at 4 pm. They prepare better at 2 pm, hold their discipline better at 5:30 pm, and keep a better journal at 10:15 pm. This lesson lays out the typical day hour by hour, on the normal schedule; in the clock-offset weeks, when US and European clocks are out of step, everything moves one hour earlier. It is not eight hours of trading: it is three hours of reading, four hours of waiting and reviewing, and one hour of preparation.
