screen resolution

doug456 · Feb 8, 2004

i was just curious as to what the best optimum screen resolution is for trading, i just change my screens to 1024 x768 from 800 x 600, going with this higher res. obviously allows me to put more things on my monitors, but will the smaller size have any affect of my eyes? is this bad?

When I ran CRTs, I had two trinitron 21" tubes at 1600x1200.

I've actually managed to develop exotropia, which helps me to see both of my monitors at once.
