  2. I was wondering what happened to MAESTRO.

    Has he built a trading station in orbit?

    Anyone knows?

  3. Just a question...
    Would someone give an example for a good use of 10 monitors or 5 for that matter?
    You would think in all that clutter it would be harder to focus even if you have the ability to look at multiple positions/charts and such...
    Would it be better to have no more than a max of 2-3 monitors right in front of your eyes and just click back and forth as necessary???
    I only use 2, but did think of getting a few more. Just have not figure out what the reason for that would be :)

  4. Don't get anymore.

    If your setup works for your style of trading you don't need anymore, actually it would only confuse you.

    Cheers !

  6. Your breaker limits are a function of power running through the lines and how much they draw on that fuse. In the case of monitors, each one is running on its own power supply, so there is no problem there.

    The limitation, however, is in the WinXP monitor applet. It can only control 10 before you have to beef up with 3rd party software. I have done a 16 monitor setup and had to get that software to control and configure them. WinXP itself doesn't have a problem, but the application that controls them will. I was able to run 16 using UltraMon for someone I know. Here's the website for that software:

    The other considerations are your system's power supply and its cooling ability (you need a well designed computer case for this).

    I hope that helps.

  10. here's another shot of the quote screen.

    notice the spreads got even tighter, with EUR/USD @ 1.5 wide in normal volume.

    normally this will register 1-wide when you execute a trade. the tightest spread in the market.
