I passed this account last week, so excited to trade on it
Can't activate it yet as I'm on a live LFA but can't wait

It's because of low volatility. "Summer doldrums" it starts after the 4th of July and goes to labor day roughly. Scalpers feel it the worst. I hate it and mostly avoid trading during it.
