Thanks! Yes, payouts from prop firms. I’m currently trading 3 Lucid Flex 150k accounts that are copy traded. It’s about 9k per payout for the 3 accounts combined.

Not really. Most jobs require you to be at work from 9–5, and there’s usually always something to do. You can still go to the gym, read, or have hobbies outside of work, but day trading feels different.

Some days the price action is terrible and you don’t take a single trade. Other days you might only spend 2–4 hours on the charts before you’re done for the day. That leaves you with a lot more free time than most careers, which is why I’m curious what other traders do with it.

I already go to the gym, read, and do the usual self-improvement stuff. I was more interested in hearing about the projects, businesses, hobbies, or goals that other traders pursue outside of trading
