Is one screen enough to trade?
You've been trading on one screen for a while and struggling to succeed. Maybe you just need a second or third screen and you'll be all set?
An elaborate trade desk setup is like putting a really expensive scope on a rifle. It's not going to help you shoot better until you master basic marksmanship fundamentals. If you put that rifle in the hands of a novice that $2000 scope will make no difference.
Same goes for number of monitors. If you haven't yet mastered the basics, adding more screens to look at won't sharpen your skills.
If you're trading profitably on one screen, but find yourself switching between windows frequently to look at something, this is when you should consider buying a second monitor.
If you're not trading profitably on one screen, you're not going to be profitable with two, three, or four screens.
Don't worry about not having a fancy trade desk setup. Focus on mastering the basics of trading. You'll know if it's time to add a second monitor.
