    Anyone using projectors to display their charts?

    The resolution is low, but I was thinking, I could sit on the couch and put up my feet while trading.

  3. I used to use a projector. But after the novelty wears off, it is not really practical. The low resolution will get real old real quick. I was using a wireless mouse and keyboard and that became cumbersome as well. Better off just utilizing a desk with a nice monitor with high resolution.

    I like the idea of pointing one at the ceiling and watching a movie while lying on my bed. I'd be surprised if they were suitable for trading though.

I've watched compressed videos of some of the more interesting days on my 80" projector screen, but not considered trading from it (it's just another layer of technology to go wrong, for one thing). However I recommend it for review and teaching others as the change signals kind of jump out at you even when you're only half concentrating, sitting way back on the sofa with a chilled glass of white wine in your hand.
