Wondered if someone would comment on the same chart being used for the picture. If you read the post above it you'll see I'm working on getting it set up. And no I'm not a beginner.
I don't have as many as some, though more is definitely how to make more money, as everyone is saying: http://static.businessinsider.com/i...financial-news-outlets-and-sometimes-espn.jpg Apparently 980 monitors are required to trade properly. I've got more desk space than the guy above, woot.
Dart: Some of these are really "you can't win" comments. Instead of appreciating what one can do, some people cannot see beyond their narrow view of the world. First they will say: why do you have 14 blank screen? What the hell for? Then they will say: you have 14 screens looking at the same chart. Are you really a trader? Then they will say: 14 screens on different charts, that's way too distracting. And start asking if your profitability is proportional to the number of screens you have, etc.. And they will say: too messy. They cannot get by without feeling the urge to say something unnice. Good work getting all on one computer. I spreaded mine over 3 computers, for load balancing and redundancy.
Hey Dart, thanks for reporting your experiences on the 14 monitor project. Please leave a couple dollars in the pond for the rest of us. Looking forward to your Gestural Interface prototyping project to help put those monitors at your beck and call. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesture_recognition http://www2.technologyreview.com/article/423687/gestural-interfaces/ I like this guy's Samsonite idea, attached.
You guys do realize that the number of monitors you use is directly correlated to your P/L...actually exponentially so.
I trade directly from the Star Trek USS Enterprise chip. Here you can see chief communications officer Nyota warning me about a potential breakout in the pork bellies market: I trade with one computer and one simple monitor. That's all I need.
You might want to have them bring the USS Enterprise a little closer to the CME. Your "ping test" to aurora Illinois must be measured in Julian years and not milliseconds. Since "Bellies" haven't traded in almost 3 years!
LOL Went Fishing! Now Stock777 needs to ask Captain Kirk to go back in time via a time machine to kill some pigs and beam them back to the Enterprise to feed the crew.
