Spending 1K in PC for 5 years costs annual $200 per years. If you pay $10/Month for data subscription, it is same as $120 per year. Therefore, due to IB's monthly data feed of $10, the two minimum expenses summed to $320 per year. Also if the internet fee for $30/M then the three is $700, for most traders. For your remaining 50 years from now, you are supposed to pay 35K lifetime.
Oh, you're one of those guys who thinks the more screens, the better the trader. Aha. That amount is often one tick movement for a position, it doesn't mean I like to spend cash as if $400 is nothing.
Some child claim 4 desk to dad, to study well to pass bar exam. 4 desks are better than 1 desk, but not significantly.
on the other hand, if one can afford them, then.... why not? i have one screen for each product, then another separate order screen, then a screen for watching any entered order, to see which direction, it is going.... the a screen to exit.... well.... until i can come up with other good profitable ideas, i won't want to add any more screens.... LOL
may i just whisper in your left ear, so no one else would be able to hear, not even your right ear....? LOL most software out there, if it is worth anything, and if it is at all half way profitable, do you imagine anyone, creator or not, proprietor or not, thief or not, would put it out there for whatever pricing....? ok, if you really really like to know which software i use to conduct my trading with.... but beware though, at any given moment, this same seemingly profitable software, settings and setups would in a split second chew up your account and spit it out just as easily as it adds profitability to your acct. everyone who trades know better to rely too much on one's own aparatus. then, like most like to ask, why on earth do you want to continue to use any of those when you can't really rely on them? the answer is simple, it is just the best that i got on hand at the moment to trade with. good trading everyone, ladies and gents. http://content.screencast.com/users...4et livechat ms t NOT CLOSED 2016 02 16T.png
Wrong. No monster setup here. 1 screen for charts, 1 for everything else. Just find the "coupon clippers" of trading hysterical
@SunTrader some traders, perhaps like yourself, are sprinters with quick brain and such. others like myself, are even having difficulty just walking straight ahead and very slow in motion, particularly in getting in and out of trades.... LOL well, just so we are all profitable, that's all it matters.... fun trading everyone. chow.
