took like about... 15-20 minutes just to download the pokerstars update. probably many people are connecting to the server to download the update now and the tables are lagging pretty badly. checked my connection on speedtest and its perfect, facebook and everything else is fine too, just pokerstars so i guess for the next 1-2 hours ill be doing something else... maybe play on full tilt?
this is how my typical day looks like, and ill track how it changes into the future. right now my focus is mainly on poker, and helping out my friend with his forex company.
12:00 - wake up, pop 2 10mg ritalin, drink berocca vitamin C orange flavor, 10-15 tablets of kyoto chlorella
12:15 - go downstairs for a quick lunch, im eating first because ritalin causes gastric which can affect the mindset and causes discomfort. i usually prefer to eat like 1-2 hours after i wake up and the hunger pangs sets in, but have adjusted to eat immediately after i wake up. i have a 30 minute time frame for ritalin to kick in before i do effective work.
12:45 - back home, fire up tables and start playing poker. im thinking how i can eat faster and start earlier. i made an arrangement with my dad to buy food for me, but he has a very big ego and time management problem, he would be slow to leave the house, buy wrongly or refuse to buy, and after that make requests like asking me to pay the bill and give allowance (which i already discussed with him multiple times and already paying part of the bills). there is no one else that can help for now, maybe hire a maid? but that would cost money and in singapore i think i need a proper declared income to hire a maid? not too sure about that. even if i have a maid will she be able to buy quickly so that i can eat?
or maybe there is a better solution, there is this instant food pack, but still i have to bite, is there something thats tasty and liquid that i can just swallow down in less than 1 minute?

16:00 - take the 2nd dose of 2X 10mg ritalin, in between 12:45 to 16:00 i have 3:15, but effectively i think i only work closer to 2:45, with 20-30minutes wasted going to the toilet frequently. i think i go to the toilet maybe every 15mins, and each trip lasts maybe 2mins so thats about 10minutes wasted every hour. i have been drinking alot of water since young and it has been like this for a long time. getting a piss container is not the solution because i pee so much everyday and i dont like pissing in my room. i drink about 4-6 litres water everyday, i went for check ups before and this is normal. i am trying to reduce my water intake and maybe change some conditions. my aircon is usually on, maybe that causes me to feel more thirsty? ritalin also causes thirst but thats something i cannot change. i also have my chat clients like skype and line on, and check my emails maybe every 1-2 hours or so, it is not interrupting my plan too much but i wonder if i increase the checking time of emails to 4 hours is a good idea? the cons is that important emails from skill or stars get delayed, but i am not guaranteed a definite reply time anyway and that extra 4 hours is probably not critical.
18:00 - gastric starts to set in and i have to take dinner, my mum usually calls 90+% of the time (unless she is out with her friends) asking me what i want to eat and buy back. rush for dinner for 10mins and back to work. i dont like the food that contains bones especially the small fragmented bones and the curve bones where special effort is needed to take out the meat. i guess i will just go for the breast portion instead.
20:00 - ritalin is fully faded but somehow i am still able to continue focusing, not sure why maybe its already an attitude.
22:00 - focus drops, still can work but at this time i focus my effort on other things that require less brain power, for example designing the pre flop hand ranges on my excel sheet, analysing forex data for my friend, writing macros on auto hot key. i am intending to write a macro that is able to play for me. right now i am successful in writing one that opens up pokerstars and then log in for me (of course that compromises on my passwords and disabling of the RSA key and i stopped this). i am in the process of writing the macro that can raise the desired hands while unopened ( of course this does not take into account table dynamics that affect ranges but this can be incorporated at a much later stage). the purpose of this macro is for me to pan out my thoughts in a logical systematic way where i can look at it like a floor plan and point out where the mistakes are.
i have had some experience writing macros for maplestory, where my macro was capable of automatically replenishing health and mana, switch random channels/maps, logging in and out at predetermined times, commence different attacks, randomize movement. that was when i was about 16-17 years old in around 2006, with no prior computer skills, i basically ripped everything off an existing bot (i think it was meant for diablo), studied the terms and rewrote everything. now i have some knowledge of python, competent knowledge of excel and some autohotkey knowledge and probably will have to learn a more basic programming language.
i also wrote a statistical analysis spread sheet on MT4 candlesticks which is used by a SME 500 singapore company in their trading strategy.
i went on to further make spread sheets testing the results of each trader to find the flaws in their strategy, show some essential data to match their said strategy, (for example a strategy that depends on the monthly candle should match the number of pips in that month(maybe 200-300) and that time frame(4-10 days) and that risk profile(percentage determined based on strategy))

i am currently in the process of analyzing tick data to study patterns to find how each currency pair behaves, and find patterns that coincide with a human behavior that i can exploit.
i am intending to write a bot that can analyse these data and find that relationship to human behavior by matching the times there were significant changes to news release from different sites like bloomberg and forex factory, and then coming up with a range of entry and exit points based on multiple time frame analysis and execute trades on its own. its supposed to be able to study constantly changing data and factor in variance in news timings, and find out how much each news affect each pair. for example
1. every news by bernanke causes a large change in currency fluctuation of XXX pips 2-3 hours before and 2 hours later.
2. every interest rate change by the bank of more than 0.1% affects the pair 30mins before, and every 0.1% change causes an estimated 50pip movement. so we can expect a 500pip movement for a 1.0% change or something like that.
02:00 - very tired already and go to sleep.
