How do you avoid checking prices all day?

Price-checking is a compulsion that masquerades as diligence. Every check is a chance to overtrade, and the phone makes it constant. Breaking the habit takes deliberate friction.

What worked for you?

• the practical friction you added (alerts, app removal, phone-free hours)
• how checking frequency changed your trading
• what you do with the freed attention

Alerts are the standard fix: let the market call you instead of you calling it.
