No but from what Ive seen... it requires long hours. Our assistance had to retreive data from the Tokyo Stock Exchange everyday at 7:30pm so would be working till around 8:30-9:00pm. Also note the early hours starting from around 7:00am for traders.

You do want to give off an impression that you are passionate about the markets though.
Yes I agree! And also when giving the impression that you are passionate about markets, talk that up with certain goals you have set and achieved. That will reinforce that fact that you are not only passionate, but determined.
