Do You Need The Best Trading Computer?
... or Do You Just Want It? There Is A Difference.
There is a big difference if you need some technology for your day trading computer setup, or if you just want the technology because it would make things easier. It's time to get honest with yourself on what you need and what you want.
When it comes to computers desktops are far from dead. Sure there is something to be said for mobile taking off but when it comes to trading graphic cards with multiple outputs and big monitors are some compelling reasons to stick with the desktop setup.
Questions To Ask Yourself First:
- Were the funds I'm using generated by my returns from trading or are they in hopes of getting some returns?
- Is the equipment 100% necessary to generate the growth of your trading account?
- Are the funds you plan to spend on your technology more than 5% of your trading account balance?
