Trying to work from home on cafe wifi for a whole month is a real hassle though. It goes beyond just being a small annoyance.

Sounds like you might be mixing up stress with real fun. Didn't that constant checking just make you more likely to sell at the wrong time out of panic? Maybe the fun part was the idea of making money fast, not the actual gut punch of watching losses. What exactly did you enjoy about that feeling of your heart racing? Was it worth the lost sleep?

Your post, @lily_lee9, reminded me of my college roommate. She relied on a simple desk lamp during all-nighters and never complained. Different gear, but endurance is key for long hours.
