Conversation Two:
對話二
So, why exactly does your job have a reputation for being stressful?
那么，到底為什么你的工作以緊張出名呢？
Stress is generally driven by the feeling of being out of control of a situation and the feeling of a situation controlling you. Trading in financial markets combines both.
當人們束手無策或感覺被控制時，就會有壓力感。金融市場上的交易正是這兩者的結合。
How do you relax in the evening?
你晚上如何放松？
I very rarely do anything work-related so it's easy to escape the markets. I generally go to the gym or go for a run, especially if I've had a bad day. I always cook a meal rather than have a take-away. To do something my brain would regard as creative.
我很少做與工作有關的事情，所以很容易逃離市場。我通常去健身房或是出去跑步。尤其是在我感覺某天很糟糕的時候，更是如此。我總是做飯，而不是叫外賣。做點兒有創意的事。

Would you consider changing your job because of the high stress factor?

What do you enjoy about the stressful aspects of your job?

Having said all that, I do actually enjoy an element of uncertainty. I enjoy a mental challenge. Trading generates a wide range of emotions second by second. How you deal with and manage those emotions dictates short, medium and long term trading performance and success.
說了這么多，我的確喜歡不確定因素。我喜歡挑戰。交易會在瞬間產生一系列大范圍的情緒波動。你如何處理及管理這些情緒支配著中短期及長期交易的業績與成功。
