New 2018: Pictures Of Your Trading Stations

Oh, because you saw tws on the screens? I like to follow markets during work hours even when I am not myself actively trading, though I do occasionally place discretionary orders. But nothing latency sensitive on the discretionary side.

Why do you have so much hardware at home instead of the cloud? Isn't latency an issue in SE Asia as it seems you're sending orders from home.

Makes sense, I also have TWS open to keep an eye on executions for debugging purposes.

This is a temp set up. It’s been a temp set up for a few months now. Still trying to get bed room set up. Goal is to stay with fam at home. That said.

I'm not sure what is going wrong, but I can't see the photo.

During the evening session I do. I’m trading the Euro Open (I think) in this pic. You know the whole Brexit thing...

I actually do like trading overnight vs the morning sessions. It’s less susceptible to violent swings from “news breaks”. Also the order flow doesn’t (usually) change so violently to cause “v” bottoms. I like crude the most

Nice.. can you explain please what for to have so many monitors. What do you basically track I assume you have to get picture of several market aspects simultaneously. What are those assets or indicators or something else?

Well it depends, I have a futures workstation, crude, retail, (clothing, electronics, auto/motorcycle) computers/chips, etc. I don’t sleep a lot. Usually during the lulls of the market. If the euro is quiet I’ll go back to sleep. I think my internal clock is set to the market lol. My quote boards alert me when a sector is getting more active, and I can switch over with a couple clicks.
