Pictures of your trading stations

My trading pit. :D

Please note the $10 calculator sitting next to $3k worth of calculator. I find highly amusing sometimes... it's just easier!

What part of the house is that? Looks kinda gloomy if you ask me :p still better than mine of course.

What charting package is that and what do you trade?

It's out the back in a strange 80's add-on.

Why thank you. Maybe that's why no one bothers me out here? ;)

The picture was taken more than a year ago so I was trading with Oanda, CMC and my banks share program. I'm trading only FX now. The left screen is Metatrader and the green/red indicator is a Willaims%r custom.

I was using XP at the time due to issue with Linux and my gfx card but now I've got it working... minus a few headaches so I'm a happy camper.
 
When i see all these trading stations i always wonder if the results of trading would be in relation to the investment in hard- and software.

Or would it be like many bicyclists who buy bicycles worth between 2000 and 5000 $ but are not able to keep up with grandma when she's making a tour.

Just wondering, no insinuation.

BTW i have a modest tradestation: pentium4 2.4 Ghz, only 512Mb RAM, 2 harddisks, two17 inch flat screens, windows 2000, tradestation 2000i. Plus second computer as backup.
 
Spiky, as an experienced trader you know that hardware and software mean absolutely nothing when it comes down to being consistently profitable in this business....

There is nothing wrong if a trader uses one monitor or 20. It depends on the trading style, instruments and methodology the trader uses.

To critique other's setups without knowing their trading plan or system is a little naive imo...

No insinuation here either......:)

Comparable to the guy that buys a 3-5000$ bike and has to force himself to keep up with his fellows when they make a ride in the weekend.

Zero points for originality :p
