Terrible internet day

The connection today is really awful. I’m already kind of used to trading with a bad connection, but today it was ridiculous, my charts were 1 minute and 15 seconds behind actual time. For those not day trading - it’s a bit like driving a car and the view of the traffic in front is 1 minute old. Sure you won’t die from trading but you can wreck your “caR”..
It was so bad that I thought for a second of shutting the computer down and just going for a walk the whole night instead, obviously feeling quite pissed off. But it looks like a good volume day at this point with some interesting candidates. Missing out on the good days in trading kills your performance and can turn a month from decent or even good month to a losing month. So I tried to do the best I can given what I’ve got, we’ll see later if taking a walk would have been a better course of action.
