At least several hours per day in a lot of nebulous work. Looking at news, looking at technical analysis, it's a pain :)
Actually placing trade orders and closing orders is only a few minutes of work and a lot of waiting/thinking, like chess!

No worries! Honestly it's a bit of a random walk more than anything but the single most important statistic is the RSI of a specific stock, because stocks tend to return to the average after a large move.
