Trading for a living do you write off certain months ?

I am just wondering for anyone who trades for a living, are there certain months you simply write off and therefore work harder around those months to compensate ?

In my couple of years FX experience, it seems you could just about write off December and January for example as the market can get either quite thin or volatile... or both !

Thx

August can get a little nuts too!

I don't think you need to work harder to compensate though, second half of December and first half of January, and August, is only ~8 weeks holiday a year, I'd say just relax and enjoy the time off

take december off , closing book month for institutions ,
a month every year is good enuf I think
