Avoid completely !Its simple, the trading mind requires as much computing power as possible, nothing less.OK, I do concentrate, now what ? Now, don't relax ! Keeping going at the same level of concentration. The only trap here is that you tire. So regular breaks are a must. One very important point you must note: after taking a break the performance may not be as good. Scalpers will generally make this observation.
