I am sure that many of traders drink coffee, black tree, green tee, coca-cola and eat chocolate just to get some energy or alertness as well before the trading day as during the day. All of these drinks and also chocolate contains caffeine which is considered a natural stimulant.
There has been many studies on this subject. They conclude that if consumed in small amounts there is very little or no threat to our health. However in large doses there is serious risk, especially for some people.It can be different for each person. Interestingly enough that smokers metabolize caffeine two times faster than non smokers. Meaning that their health is less affected. To be honest I don't know what is the connection there.


Although caffeine also is addictive, it can cause insomnia and stress and so on. This is why all the traders should reconsider the amount of caffeine consumed. As it can affect the trading decisions significantly. When one is stressed it is much harder to pull the trigger when there is a trade setup, it is also much harder to let your profits run and not close the position out of fear as fear and stress gets along very well.
I guess it will be hard to say no to a cup of coffee in the morning. Not more than that
