Pics of your trading station

[malvado xetra]

actually, there are 10 if you realise of the two monitors on the right side of the video wall that are in the shadow.

the reason why I use 10 screens and only trade with one future it is because I like to have the whole picture of the market. Such as: US indices, west texas oil, USD/EUR, volume rates, volatility rates and so on. I also see different frame times to see elliott waves interactions in the long term and big supports/resistances. When I get into the market I like to see the forest and not only the big tree I have in front of my eyes. take in account that, I trade swinger so I trade 3 or 4 times monthly more or less. so the big picture is very important if you want to get into the big wave trend and stay inside 3 or 4 days per entry.

best regards

Heres a portion of my workspace. I have another screen and system on the far right which is missing from the pic.

Soultrader, is that Schwager's fundamental or TA on futures book? His fundamental book was next on my list until i found mind over markets on here.
great setups guys, i just ordered a second 19" inch widescreen so 2 19" wide screens should be enough starting out i hope.

I like malvado xetra's setup. The more the merrier, if you can keep up with it all.

Its the TA version. Its real basic TA stuff. Thomas N. Bulkowski's "Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns" might be a better pick.

With fundamental related books, I did enjoy all of Benjamin Graham's book.

ahh wow im surprised Jack's TA book wasnt more advanced. From what I have read about his fundy book it sounds pretty unique. Basically, about using regression analysis on commodity fundys.

I love the Intelligent Investor but never got much into Security Analysis. If you ever want a mind blowing valuation book check out Damodaran's Investment Valuation. He has all the models on his website as excel sheets and even has full video of his NYU valuation classes.

Wow, marcus! If you can add a few on top and below, you'd be almost like an astronaut in orbit! You're the winner! 12 is now the record! I guess you're ace with multi-tasking. I get a headache just having 3 monitor in front of me.
