This is the room with my Battle Station. Hope you enjoy it. I have been renovating my office over the last year and I custom built my Battle Station (trading computer) last month when everything was on sale. Previously, I had Six 23”monitors and used an ASUS Gaming Laptop. Now, I LOVE THE DELL 49” Curve Monitors !!!! Each Dell 49”Curve Monitor replaces 3 of my previous monitors and got rid of A LOT of cords. Also, NO SPACES between charts and Awesome resolution. The Lower Dell 49" Curve monitor is my main screen so I that neck and eyes are in comfortable positions. I use the Razer Obweaver for Hotkeys and Macros for speedy execution so that I don’t have to take my hand off the mouse and reduces clicks for commands. Volume / TPO profiles and Orderflow including Bookmap are the main tools I use for trading. Custom Build Trading Workstation - 2 Dell 49” IPS U4919DW Curve Monitors (5120 x 1440 QHD) - ASUS ROG STRIX X299-E Gaming Motherboard - Intel I9-7900 Processor 10-Core - 64GB RAM - EVGA GeForce RTX2070 XC Ultra Gaming RGB Graphics Card, 8GB GDDR6, Dual HDB Fans - Samsung 500GB 970EVO NVME M.2 SSD - Thermal Take View 31 RGB ATX Case - Thermal Take FOE AIO RINNG RGB 360 - Razer Orbweaver (for Hotkeys and Macros) - Razer Huntsman Elite Optical Mechanical Keyboard - Razer Firefly Hard Gaming Mouse Pad - Sony Bluetooth Speaker for music ASUS ROG G750JM-BSI7N24 - 17.3" - Core i7 [email protected] - 24GB RAM - 250 GB SSD (Backup Laptop, Traveling and Reference Computer).

I thought about getting better Graphics card, but the RTX2070 is sufficient. I use Bookmap and it is a Resource HOG so a Dedicated Graphics card is a MUST. Hope this helps.

I have been pretty obsessed with the turing cards since they came out. RTX2070 is just an incredible value.
The 2080 TI is more for the tensor cores and the best for real time ray tracing. For a trading computer it would be no difference really.

I think I am going to build an i7 6 core / RTX2070.

I know I am going to get an occulus rift too if I have a sweet VR machine.

Just recently joined the forum and all I can say is wow , some nice set ups in this monstrous thread.

Hey guys and ladies,

The one big difference I see between the amateur screen set ups and pro set ups are the number of charts vs ladders. Amateur set ups have far more charts, pro set ups have more of a balance. I'm about 60/40 ladders to charts, I probably should have a few more charts for 50/50, but some of my strategies don't require a chart rather simply staring at the order book. Food for thought. Good luck to everybody posting up their trading desks, some really cool set ups out there.

That looks like a Phone (dealing room) Trading Turret. How do you do that without a PBX?
