I'm using AmpFutures as an example, so check with your broker for specific intraday & overnight hours for that specific futures contract.

Nothing too technical here. Imo to be successful in trading (or very successful in anything) most improve quicker when there is extreme focus and desire. And with that is a firm understanding of the Why you want to be successful in the effort.
If you are pursuing this dream or already have—what is your why?
Part 2, do you think your “why” helped you in your success?

What would happen, theoretically, if one started applying trading & arbitrage concepts to game assets? Do you think it could takeover the market?
