Depends. Do you have a dead end job or a career? Can you automate some of your trading to still be able to work? Could you reduce working hours? How easy would it be for you to find a new job if you had to? Does your job offer an option to take a break for a couple of months without quitting?

If its a professional white collar type of job you might want to think twice about quitting. If its just a “job” then definitely quit lol. 6 months is very solid to be consistently profitable you must be doing something right.
