The thing that jumps out is "continuously track price movement". That's what's incompatible with a job, not day trading itself.
The first ninety minutes after the US open is where most intraday edge lives anyway. If you can protect 9:30 to 11:00 ET and be genuinely done after that, you're trading a full session as far as your results are concerned. Sitting in front of charts all afternoon isn't adding edge, it's usually where the giving back happens.
So the question is less "can I trade with a job" and more "can I ringfence ninety minutes and actually close the platform after."

I run a trading bot with two thoroughly tested strategies that hold up to 14/32 market days depending on the strategy. Anyways, I have a paper trading module in the trading bot and a claude skill to pull in reddit posts for analysis including all pictures and posts. Here's what it says about your post.
**What the OP is doing** (from the post, 56 comments, and chart forensics): scalping **QQQ 0DTE options** — I identified the underlying by matching their chart to today's intraday tape (QQQ hit its −2.19%-from-open trough at exactly 10:43 ET, matching their chart point-for-point; SPY doesn't). Signals are RSI/Bollinger/MACD on the underlying with ML-selected parameters, \~18 morning trades/session, stop-only exits with winners left to run, a session-equity trailing stop, and \~2-second fills at mid via Schwab. Their published stats are internally consistent (rare for Reddit — the PF, compounding, and chart labels all cross-check), but the current config has only \~3 live sessions behind it, tuned in response to earlier live losses.
**What I built**: a pre-registered 14-cell × SPY/QQQ replication family (frozen at commit `0d67889` before any results) on the July lab's real-option-bar harness — rebuilt its deleted \~13M-row cache and extended it to 619 sessions per underlying through 2026-07-24. Before trusting results, a 9-agent adversarial review found **4 real harness defects** (a null miscalibration worth +1.4t on one cell, silent censoring of v-bounce tail mornings, an entry-window off-by-one excluding the OP's signature 09:31 minute, and a cell that couldn't test its own hypothesis) — all fixed (`4dc6b5a`), everything re-run from scratch.
**What the data says** (full detail in `REDDIT_REPORT.md`, tables in `results_reddit_tables.md`):
* **All 28 cells lose at realistic fills; 27 of 28 lose even at frictionless fills.** The one exception is noise (t +0.5).
* **The signal doesn't exist**: RSI(2) scalps on QQQ — the most OP-like cell — earn exactly **0.0000%/trade gross at zero cost** over 5,835 trades. On the underlying shares, all six signal families are *negative* even at 2bp cost (t as bad as −14) — nowhere near our standing ≥+40bp/day reopen gate.
* **Their exit math is a 2-second-reaction artifact**: our trail cells reproduce their winner shape (29% win rate, +46–54% average winners) but average losses are −27%, not their −3.1% — 0DTE gamma gaps through tight stops at any reaction speed we could implement (we measured −15%→−32% across two 1-minute bars on real prints).
* **"Dynamic indicator selection" makes it worse** — the walk-forward best-indicator meta-cell is the *worst* cell at raw fills. Selection chases noise.
* **The commenter's afternoon 2%-OTM-put play**: the \~1000% winners are real (+700–900% average when they hit) but occur 5–7% of the time; mean −30%/trade with no stop, identical at frictionless fills. It's theta, not spread.

That's a great question!
The fees associated with your 401(k) are usually dictated by your plan's rules, created by your employer. I recommend checking out your Summary Plan Description (SPD) to learn more about what exactly this fee entails. If your employer has provided us with this document, you can review it online by following these steps:
1. Click the 3 dots next to your plan that says "Quick Links," then choose "Plan Information and Documents"
2. Select "Summary Plan Description (SPD)"
If you'd like for us to take a look at your plan in more depth, feel free to contact our Workplace Investing team directly. They are available through the link below from Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to midnight, ET.

Thanks for following up with those additional details.
Based on what you’ve shared, it sounds like the change to your son’s new external bank (credit union) account may have affected the standing transfer instructions associated with that specific bank linkage.
Recurring transfers to a third-party bank account are supported once the appropriate instructions are established. Once on file, you’ll generally be able to create and manage recurring transfers through both Fidelity.com and the mobile app.
To get the full picture, however, it will be best for us to review your account and instructions in a secure setting. Associates are available Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET., and can be reached from the link below.

Thanks for choosing Fidelity as part of your retirement saving strategy! From your question, it sounds like you've already requested your transfer of assets (TOA) requests to self-directed accounts. If that's correct, since Fidelity Go accounts are a type of managed account we offer, you'd need to go through the process of opening a new Fidelity Go account to get started.
As part of opening a new Fidelity Go account, you'll be asked if you would like to use an existing eligible account, which generally includes Traditional and Roth IRAs. Note that your transfers must be fully received and settled in your Fidelity IRAs, and that this conversion can only be completed for one account at a time. Depending on your situation, if you are also interested in consolidating your accounts (so you have a single Traditional IRA and Roth IRA as opposed to multiple managed accounts), that can be accomplished by funding the account from the transfer tool on Fidelity.com. We're happy to provide navigation steps here, so let us know if you have questions!
[Learn more in our Fidelity Go FAQs.](https://www.fidelity.com/managed-accounts/fidelity-go/investment-account-faqs)
That said, there are instances where your request(s) cannot be completed online, but you can give us a call so an associate can take a look over your situation and help with next steps. Representatives are available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET; just say "Fidelity Go" to be connected with the right group.

Thanks for following up with us and providing more clarity on what you're looking to accomplish.
In short, if you decide you'd like to roll over your old plan into an IRA with Fidelity, you'll typically choose either a rollover IRA, a Roth IRA, or both. In your case, it sounds like you're looking to split the pre- and post-tax assets currently held in your 401(k), in which case you would need both a Roth IRA and a rollover IRA. If you'd like to roll over the entire amount into a Roth IRA, keep in mind that moving any pre-tax funds would be considered a conversion, and you would be liable for paying taxes on the amount converted.
From there, the process depends on whether your old employer plan is with Fidelity. The link below provides step-by-step instructions for rolling over your workplace plan if you decide you'd like to proceed. If your plan is with Fidelity, step 2 is where you can request the rollover online by logging in to your NetBenefits account. Step 3 applies if your plan is not with Fidelity.

Oh ok. I was going to fuck with you.
But he just means stock futures open at 6pm ET.

I happily started buying ET at 15 and kept adding my average is now 17.8.
I think adding or entering right now might too late but the dividends are nice

**Bull case for Energy Transfer ($ET):** The Iran conflict and disruption around the Strait of Hormuz make dependable U.S. energy exports more valuable. If global buyers replace threatened Gulf supplies with American NGLs, ET could capture more transportation and export fees through its **1.4M+ barrels/day of NGL export capacity** and roughly **20% share of worldwide NGL exports**. With about **90% fee-based earnings**, ET is less a gamble on oil prices and more the toll road for America’s energy response

I'm in my late 30s right now and have a fair amount in ET and EPD in a taxable investment account. I roll the dividends every quarter so that they continue to grow. The way those companies are structured, tax wise, you pay nothing until the cost basis reaches 0 or you sell. My plan is to continue stacking until I am ready to retire. This should give me the freedom to retire before I can withdrawal from my 401k if I want and not have to worry about the taxes for several years in to retirement.
