Is it just for aesthetics? or does trading on a big screen have an effect on the outcome of your trade. I often see that professional traders have created a work space for themselves where they invest heavily into hardware and big monitor screens. So I wonder if trading on bigger monitor screen has a better effect on trading because I think that with the big screens a trader will be able to make better analysis. Is this my opinion correct or is there no special effect that trading on big screen has?

No special effect than to have better trading experience because big screens are better than smaller screens.

It doesn't matter for the professional trader who already has the skill and knows just what to look for on the screen. But for the beginner trader who needs to learn about technical analysis and see the full screen so as to get conversant with the details, screen size matter alot. There is also a small group of people for whom whether they be beginners or not their trading is not affected by the monitor screen size

Most of them do it, so they can be able to carry out Technical Analysis or view multiple charts at ago, but it has less to do with the outcome of the trade. It has more to do with convenience

I personally know how hard it is to analyze charts using a mobile phone. So I use my PC to analyze charts and then if I am to use a mobile phone. I only open or close a position using it. Ever tried opening trading view on a mobile phone? It sucks!  ;D

it's not only for aesthetics. trading with a wide monitor gives you better experience in trading since you can have a larger size of chart. I'm trading with a triple monitor setup since I'm trading with different coins. Also monitor size give you space if you're going to use multiple screen windows has that feature where you can split your screen with different tabs. It doesn't have affect the outcome of your trade but gives you more insights with the move of the market. You can use big monitor if you have a lot of budget but if you're starting on trading only you can start with only what you can afford. before I only use 24 inch monitor the basic one but now im using 32 inch wide monitor and 2 extra 24 inch curve monitor.

It's more convenient with big screens, especially if you are a day trader. It could be helpful in that case. It's like having better tools that can lead to better results. If you are serious about trading and considering it as a full-time job or venture, investing in that kind of setup is essential. As for me, I use my laptop and it works for me, but I'm not a big-time trader. :)

Bigger is better but screens only need to be big enough. We don't actually need to use oversize screens just for trading and think such screens are helpful for our trading and positively increase our trading accuracy and profit.

Our profit is from our entries and exits which are determined by our knowledge, experience and patience to keep up our discipline for position open and closing. If we don't have enough factors, only an oversize screen is useless and can not help us to increase our profit.

Bigger screens potentially affect our emotion more that will cause more bad decisions and also negatively affect our eye-sights in long term.

This is about practicality, there are some people out there which trade on their smartphones, however the screen of any smartphone is smaller than a monitor, so you risk reading the price wrong and as a consequence making a mistake, and depending on how bad you read the price the magnitude of the mistake can be smaller or bigger.

So instead of taking such a risk trading using a big screen is recommended, also if you trade several markets you could even use several monitors, now this will only save you a few seconds as you can always switch desktops with ease, but when execution is key and a few seconds can be the difference between winning and losing then it is better to get more monitors to aid you as a trader.

If you are a trader, you need to check the charts clearly and analyze them. If you have a small screen, it will be really difficult to check the chart and see the overall view. But if you have a big monitor, you can clearly see the overall action and the history.

You can answer it by yourself, what device you're currently use to access this forum? PC, cellphone or iPad? If you have two devices, try to use both of them to post in this forum, which one is more convenient and better for you? same happen with a small monitor and big monitor, you will feel different and know which one is better for your productivity. A big monitor itself will not increase your profit in trading.

I think the use of such a large monitor will be multitasking showing several windows simultaneously, this means it must be supported by a high CPU specification.

I personally am not a trader who is said to be a pro, so I don't really need a large monitor size as long as there are no special needs, the most important thing is comfort when viewing it longer.

A big monitor will bring you extra x2 when trading any crypto pair. :)

I am sure that a big monitor is an element of convenience and comfort for traders during their work, as they spend a lot of time analyzing the state of the cryptomarket. Bigger monitor size = more information can fit. You can also trade behind a small monitor (look at the old movies - in those days, they also somehow traded for profit, right) and at first, it makes no sense for traders, when they are just starting their activities, to spend money on big and expensive monitors. In the end, you can always connect several smaller monitors and the effect will be close to large sizes.

Lol. It's solely due to the fact that bigger and more monitors means you can see the charts in a clearer manner, and that you can fit more charts in those bigger screens. You don't necessarily fit one chart in one single big screen — you can divide them into smaller pieces using certain websites and/or software.

I see where you are coming from. The social media is filled with users showing off their large monitors and RGB lights which are promoted and shows trading going on. This is a narrative that is done by many social media jerks. The objective is to induce a sense of greed for money through these aesthetics and equipment that most people may not be able to afford.

I trade mainly from my smartphone or laptop but I make decent amounts every month in fiat and bitcoin. Most decent traders keep their spending on devices to a necessary amount and not luxury so work on trading not your computers.

Monitor size really matters for me since you can clearly see all the information you need to see in the chart. If you have a big monitor, your eyes will be relax and no need to be near in the computer just to see small details in the chart. It's also good to see multiple charts in one monitor. So it would be better if your monitor is big, that is trader's dream. However, no matter the size of the monitor it's doesn't affect your trading because you can both make analysis. For you to know, I have friend who can still make profit in trading even though he is only using phone.

I think it's individual. For me personally, the monitor matters. More of some details may be visible on a large monitor. For some people, monitor size doesn't matter. I think that there is not much difference, but for example, some operations are difficult to carry out from the phone. Therefore, the larger the monitor, the better for me. Also, if you carry out any analysis of graphs, then this can be done better using a large monitor
In my experience, the more experienced a person is in trading, the more monitor he has, and sometimes even several monitors - two or three for better analysis.

Yes, that is you can see the charts bigger but instead of buying a monitor for thousands of dollars they can simply use the split monitors which will do the same work for much less cost but when they have money they don't know where they are spending.

In some case, they simply do it to show off their workplace like a studio for them and we can see the same kind of attitude with gamers.

Apart from this there is no positives for using big screen and regular screen.

With or without a big screen trading system, you can make a profit off the market when you trade the right way, however, one thing differential that it does is that during market analysis using a big screen PC, helps the trader to see the bigger picture of the trending market and helps traders make better trading decisions and thereby enhancing their trading experience only if you are already a good or profitable trader.




 

No, a bigger screen won't have a significant impact on the outcome of trading. Knowledge, experience, and good mentality are the big factors that can bring impacts on the outcome. Professional traders use big monitor, top hardware, and decorate their work space to make them more comfortable in trading. They must spend a lot of time to trade daily, they will make the work space to be as comfort as possible. So, it is very clear that there is nothing to do between the size of monitor with the outcome of trading.

Well, a true craftsman or journeyman must have the right tools inorder to excel at their craft. Same goes to those who have made a career out of trading from their homes.
We see cases of traders having to customize their living space by fitting in  aesthetics and furnitures that makes the environment comfortable, gamers do same too.

In my opinion, the screen size has little to do with affecting trading, but it such can help one feel more atuned to the environment and easily spot and monitor different trade zones and timelines in one go.

For me, a large monitor is 60 inches, but I have not seen traders with such monitors.
The larger monitor size allows traders to view multiple charts, indicators, and other financial data at the same time, but all this does not require a large monitor.
I am comfortable with 2 monitors of 24 inches, but since I do not trade every day, I watch movies and YouTube on the second monitor.

No, it doesn't have anything to do with the trading result but if it provides comfortability to the trader, well it could help them create better decisions. It is important that we have a better working space and equipment so we can focus on what we do. Some professional traders prefer big screens so they could focus firmly on the chart.
However, there are also traders who don't care too much about the equipment and gadgets but rather focus on the strategies and wait for good results. Some of them are just trading using their mobile phones. It all depends on our personal preferences of comfortability. What important is we can deal with every market situation.

This is a childish way to approach this and I do not think that its going to really matter as much as you think it will. I am not denying the help you may get from a monitor, of course a big one (or multiple regular size ones) would be help if you really know how to use it, that's why there are so many people with bigger ones, however that is not a requirement at all. For example a lot of professional traders on wall street have just one, they also have a screen that shows general market information for all of them at the wall, but the trader has just one in most places. All in all I have seen people trade and profit with their phones, its not the monitor that makes you profit.

Not really that totally that a serious thing to mind about which i could really even make trades in the convenience of my own phone or mobile specially when im in transit on which it would really be that so easy when it comes

to accessibility which it cant really be denied but the fact that having a huge screen does really give out also that good view on your trading chart on which you could really be able to execute it out well or not really that prone to errors because you cant accidentally click those buttons because of good view angle or space. In my current set up specially on my desktop then i do have triple monitor.
One is for open chart and the other one is for social media and messaging apps and the other one is the screen of my own home based job which it does really bring out that kind of experience which it isnt really
that hassle on making alt+tabs on everytime you are trying to access something.

On the question does it affect trading? Not really because you can still trade with small screens but cant really deny that having a huge monitor is really that something
good in the eyes.

Yep, I can relate here, because in my work I use multiple monitors but I am using them because of productivity, I feel productive if I have more than 1 monitor because each monitor has their function but on trading, I don't think so. I don't know how it works.

What I can see only if they have big monitor or multiple, they tend to use it to display multiple pairs in the same time, maybe they are using it to monitor some price action real time? and they can enter on the trade immediately?

Trading view has android app [1], should be more convenient to use.

It depends a bit on how much you trade and what kind of information you rely upon. Having a big screen or using multiple screens has some advantages over small/one screen users. The biggest advantage is that you can display a lot of more information at once and don't have to Alt+Tab through multiple layers to find what you are looking for. I think that in today's world any person that work on a PC every day should have at least two screens if their monitor is not that big. The price for a new monitor is relatively low at the moment and if you only need a monitor for office work and trading than you don't have to pick any expensive ones with a short reaction time for gaming. For me it helps a lot if I can have the browser or YouTube open one side, excel in the centre and my portfolio on the other side. But this is mostly for comfort and I wouldn't say that a bigger screen directly leads to better trading results. It's not like you make a better judgement of the market only by looking at bigger numbers on a huge screen. If it makes your life easier use it as an additional tool, just don't rely on it as the solution to your trading problems.

Those who know how to trade will get a profit even when using a smartphone. But of course, a large screen for trading is more functional, as it allows you to place a lot of charts and tools without the risk of becoming unreadable due to the small size. It's about the same as watching a movie on a big TV screen or on a smartphone.

You should trade at your most convenient way, and if having a big screen can work with you then so be it.
Just to remind you that your PC Monitor will not affect your trading at all because it will always depend on your analysis and your strategy towards trading.
There are traders who are just using their mobile phones to trade and the screen is not an issue with them, I think you have to develop your skills that upon looking on a plain price trend you can already see the possible scenario of that trend.

60 inches is surely too wide, it is not a proper size for trading. Yes, it is only appropriate used for viewing the charts or displaying certain data. But since it doesn't really needed, it is unnecessary to have 60 inches monitor. I think 14-15 inches are enough for trading, it is the standard/common size for laptop monitor. Or if we want to have a larger size, a computer with monitor 18-20 inches is enough.

It will be comfortable if the size is appropriate/suitable. But if the size is too wide, it won't be comfortable anymore. I am sure a professional trader won't choose a large monitor with nonsense size, they will choose a normal size that fits with the need of trading equipment.  ;D

Yes, it always matters. Instead of zooming in and out when using smaller screen like phones or tablets, using a wider screens based of your choice is always much better and reliable.
But remember the outcome still depends on your decision making not on your devices.

if you are already a professional trader who has a large money turnover then a monitor with a large size and good resolution will support your trading performance, but if you are still a beginner in trading, monitor size is not important to support your trading activities, your skills and understanding in trading are needed for that.

In addition to monitors with a large size, professional traders also need a healthy and calm environment, so many professional traders have special rooms that are not allowed to be entered by random people, to support their trading activities.

Size monitors support bigger graphics - of course it will help you visualize and display. But regarding analysis and trading success - it really depends on your skills and knowledge. Many successful people trade with just a 12-inch notebook - while others with monitor screens the width of a bedroom wall still don't necessarily make the same profit.

The screen size of your monitor does not affect your trading results - it only affects the wider screen view with the same tool. There is no difference - only aesthetics.

Even today many are successful just by trading using a smartphone with a 6-inch screen.
Actually not just trading, but doing some investments with income that can touch hundreds of thousands of dollars or even millions of dollars.

A screen is only for visual display in detail, doing technical analysis with various supporting indicators that require a wide display and it will not fully affect the results of trading or investment.

And this also depends on each person, preferring to trade on a small screen or a large screen.

Your skills are the only thing that matters, and not big screens. The good thing about having a big screen is that it's going to improve your experience, since with a bigger screen you can have a wider view of the chart and not stress your eyes so much as you would do when trading with a smaller screen. But this doesn't determine who is a good trader or not.

I think trading with a big screen or a small screen doesn’t matter, but depending on what you prefer, all you need is experience and knowledge about trading to know what you're doing. Because if small or big screens really affect traders, there are traders who trade using mobile phones, so what can we say about these ones? They will not gain anything, so I think having knowledge is the key. Once you have it, you will trade, especially beginners. Some of them don’t have the resources to acquire a PC, but they still trade, so I don’t think a big screen or a small screen has an effect on trading that much that will affect your confidence in trading. Once you have the knowledge, you will trade.

Well, clear vision is very important, and the size matters but not a lot. Of course, if we compared using a phone vs a laptop/desktop computer, I can say it was better on the laptop or PC. And I say not a lot because it also matters in our strategies as well. Because is makes no sense to have a big screen when trading if we are not consistent and our strategies are ineffective as we still end up losing as the only advantage that it gives is only a wide view that we can see right away without a need to zoom in/out.

Normally  most traders analyse their market on a big screen  which enables them to  cover long trading chart so they place their trade on a phone after their analysis  it's just a better way of looking into long trading chart so you could be precise and sure of your trading Analysis

No does not effect because  it doesn't matter if  big screen or small or cellphone

 they use top down analysis to see the chart movement
In trading knowledge is important and experience

I think having a decent size of the screen that you are comfortable with is good enough if you wanted to execute your trades very well. But the most important is the hardware in either both desktop and mobile phone.

I see some friends are having high specs mobile phone and just being okay with their trades no matter if the screen is small. But when it comes to the technical analysis part, I think having a decent screen size is necessary that is if you can afford or you already have it. Just my own two sats. 

It's obvious full time experience traders with huge trading capital would definitely create a work space for effective trading, of course those multiple big screens would enable them to analyze multiple timeframes at a time while using one of the system for entry, however that doesn't mean small traders should must also utilize or opt for multiple screens or work station to trade, an Android phone with a small screen can also be used to trade that means the trader will switch to different timeframe or better still utilize TradingView which is a better platform alternative to mobile MT4 or MT5 platform because of it ability of using customized indicators.

The professional trader will create their own work place for the trading,it is more better option to trade in the systemic way.Then the trader can increase their limit in the trading by the systematic trade.The systematic trade will have many system to monitor the price of investing coins,it will have many number of employees to find the exact price of investment.The monitoring with big screen will help the trader to find the accurate value of investment and it made us to earn more profit as compared to normal trade.

The laptop is used only on a trip, but constantly trading with a laptop is not very convenient. Some traders trade from the phone, but I don't understand them. For trading, I need to use a comfortable environment. It is ideal to use a widescreen LCD monitor or 2 standard monitors of 20-24 inches.

i can agree with here. but laptop is more than enough to trade. but when it comes to using smartphone, i am also not very comfortable. but if you are mobile, this will do especially if you need to execute a trade and you can't wait. but if you have a wide screen, that would be better of course. however, do remember it is not owed to the screen why you will become a successful trader, it is the skills and experience that matters.

It is true. Laptop is enough, it has 15 inch of monitor. We can do anything with 15 inch, it is also comfortable size to see the chart view. I don't see any problem if we use laptop, it already has everything we need for trading. Moreover, laptop can be brought anywhere, it will make it easier to trade anywhere. We don't need to trade at home only.

Sure, smartphone isn't quite comfortable for trading. The monitor size is very small and the processor is a bit slow. Yes, it can be an obstacle if we want to trade a coin quickly because we want to accumulate the profits immediately.

A bigger monitor doesn't affect your trading activities or increase your chances of making better trades, it is just to have a better vision and be able to trade on a bigger screen just so that you can have bigger charts and figures and enjoy when you trade. One thing that might matter is the speed of your device but that doesn't have anything to do with the monitor or the screen size, better hardware configuration can increase the speed of your system and give you the ability to perform multiple tasks simultaneously without it getting heated up or stuck.

Also, it just feels better and more comfortable to have your separate working space with a good setup, a high-end system with great configurations and settings, big monitors, and everything else that you think will make you feel better when you are working or trading, it makes it a bit more effective.

The results aren't quite different but if we talk about how comfortable we are when using a phone vs a laptop, it is totally different. Traders have made a choice to have a wider screen for a comfortable view and choose a laptop/PC for some research. However, if you are still found doing with the phone just like with my friend, that is still okay as long as the results seem good. But for me, I prefer to have a bigger screen because I feel that I can perform better than using my phone.

Even with a small screen whosoever that is smart will understand the analysis of trading if is well explained to the learner, been conversant in anything doing is all about your engagement and how desperate you are to achieve it, when someone lacks concentration what do you expect the person to do, definitely it will find whatever you are teaching very difficult, that is while it's encouraging to allow someone to make it's decision towards what it wants to achieve, me specifically I believe achievement of anything it's base on concentration.

Smartphones and tablets are without a doubt good devices when it comes to your entertainment and to keep you in touch with other people, but when we are talking about an activity which can make you a lot of money or lose it as well based on your execution then there is no point using those devices at all.

A desktop computer will be way more comfortable to use for such an activity and I am sure that almost every single trader out there prefers them as well, and they only use their smartphones to trade when they are away from their desktop computer and they have no other option available to them.

Very good traders can still actually perform great trades even without big screens. But having a big screen, a separate comfortable room for trading and many screens help them to become more effective and productive. For instance, you want to see bitcoin/usdt charts with various indicators. So it is quicker and less hassle if you have many screens and bigger screens. Having a lot of screens also helps them monitor more pairs rather than just a few ones.

Not all good traders have these kinds of trading materials but probably all of them dream of having all of it so they can be more focused.

Big screen like I believe others have said have its own advantages to the traders, I agree totally with Mk4 said, big screen grants the trader access to opportunities to view more charts on the screen on the go, and also see it clearer.

For example, I myself have tested to this on several occasions while trading, I connect my laptop to my TV through the HDMI port, and I can really tell of a truth that the experience is absolutely different, aside a better trading experience, this helps me see charts clearly and also gives me the opportunity or ability rather, of viewing chart of different currencies at the same time..

So yeah, there is indeed a good benefits with big screens.

It's all about the viewing experience. The more you see, the better your brain can process that thing. As far as I know, it is better to have multiple monitors than to have a single big screen. You can place those monitors in places where you can see them better and when the work is done, you can put that aside so that it won't distract you. I am telling this from my own experience. If I am working on a single screen and there are other applications or tabs open, I might jump into other apps or tabs and that will delay my work.

In trading crypto, staying focused is essential in order to get the best results. One wrong calculation can lead to very bad things. Switching between apps is time-consuming when you are using a single monitor. Also distracting even if it's a big one. So I will say it helps in trading but not as much as multi-monitor option.

If we are doing this like being a full-time trader, it is better to use a wide-screen monitor for a greater view.
Because for me, it really matters a lot especially when using a phone as I was afraid that my buy/sell order would be placed wrong as it happened to me several times that cost me a lot. And I know many traders have this experience which I believe that choosing a bigger screen is ideal and using a computer is good enough to perform well. If we can afford to have it why not? We can really find a different experience and for sure we can also see different results as well.

Indeed it's all about preference so therefore the results really can change. It can be good if you use the device that you prefer but no-good if you use the device that you don't like the most. For me, I am a very versatile person, and that means I can use both Phone and PC but if I'm inside the house I prefer to use my PC the most so that I can have a wider view of the market but if I'm outside, a phone or even a smart watch can come in handy for getting signals.

My ultimate goal is to have two or more monitors and maybe an upgrade of my CPU/GPU just like what I saw on other professional traders. I think that should make my trades more easier so I'm now saving up to have that kind of set-up.

I strongly disagree with you here, I use both my phone and computer to trade, and even if I would still prefer a wider screen like that of a computer, I will still not entirely condemn the phone version.

Human nature is wired to adjust to any condition and the screen size and resolution of the phone version are not so bad that traders can't fit in and adjust to trade comfortably on. The most valid point which I expected you to say is the availability of the same feature in the two versions. This varies among platforms, and once what I trade with is available on the mobile version, then I'm good to go.

It's even good to get acquainted with the mobile version because it's handy, you can trade or monitor/manage your trades anywhere you are easily without the burden of carrying your computer about.

A bigger screen is comfortable when the application is not optimised for all types of screens. The major trading platforms are having this and this very useful mobile apps. I really don't see much difference here rather than being portable. However in case of day traders this might be a different thing altogether because the cases that are often shown in social media of traders using many monitors to track multiple things - truth behind which is not known to me.

Even then trading comes from experience and that in my opinion does not depend upon monitor size.

I also think so, it won't have a big effect, it just affects the level of comfort which allows it not to affect other aspects of the trading we do.
And if the effect is only for comfort, it all depends on each individual, there are those who are comfortable with a small screen because they are used to it or vice versa who require a large monitor for comfort.
I think this is something aside from the technicalities of trading and not everyone cares about this.

That's it, as long as we are comfortable using whether it is a mobile phone or not, there is no problem with that. But for me, I prefer to have a bigger screen as I could work so well compared to using my phone. Indeed, it was just the view that differed but it also affected the result of my trade based on my experience. And for one reason, I often commit mistakes from using my phone which makes me decide not to use it anymore. If we can afford to have a bigger screen, why not do it and see the results?

Most traders have bigger screens and it's not just for aesthetics but it's needed for them to view the charts precisely and widely.
The outcome varies and depends to the decision of the traders but with the help of bigger monitors or screens.
That contributes to the decision that they make because lines and curves are more visible than the smaller ones, so in short it is helpful.

On the one hand, a lot of data is a good thing, but on the other hand, it can all be confusing. It takes a lot of experience and great intuition to make sense of it all. A beginner doesn't need a lot of data, especially on large screens. It will only confuse him. This is my opinion

Those who have good trading conditions and are experienced are the ones who profit from their trading. But it is no effect that it is possible to profit from trading on the big screen, it is about the good experienced trading that one can profit from in person. But trading on a big screen is better and looks much better than trading on a small screen.

Yes, for beginners it certainly is very confusing. But it's a step by step process where a new trader gets to learn these techniques done by the experienced ones.
Like having a multiple monitors setup and the larger ones. It all comes with an experience and someone who knows how to do and checks all of those charts understands why he needs it.

I agree that the size of the screen does not affect finding profits in trading, your expression is the same as @Oshosondy previously.

But speaking of a "better experience" whether large or small the screen used in trading I think it depends on each individual's comfort.
I personally am very comfortable with a 14 inch screen for trading, when I tried several times to carry out trading activities using a wider/long curved screen like the people out there, it made me dizzy and made me uncomfortable so I returned to the previous screen.

I understand that using a wider screen can provide better mobility in reading data because it can display more data that we need to carry out an analysis. I think beginners actually display more data for the analysis process.

Trading skill depends entirely on a person, how he conducts trading or what kind of device he uses to conduct training is entirely up to him. Many trade well only through their smartphones and there are some traders who use three monitors and mobile phones for trading.  Basically, you should trade the way you trade that will benefit you. If a trader feels that he can do good trading using a good monitor from a mobile phone then that person should purchase a good quality monitor and conduct trading activities. However, if multiple monitors are used from the mobile phone, then the candles can be monitored very well and accordingly, trading or selling at a specific time can be done very well. That is why a trader uses multiple monitors to take his trading skills to another level.

It's not for aesthetics for sure. But yes as a person who is starting his trading you don't really need to necessarily have all this into your system. A new trader can easily start with it. It does makes your trading a bit easier, infact if you scalp then it could make your trading a lot easier but at the end you have to trade using your brain and that can be done only by your skills not the skills of your system or monitors.

Can I relate it thus;
Watching football match on a 32 inches TV and watching same match on a 75 inches TV with smart graphics. Will the type of TV used affect the outcome of the match? Definitely no. But the comfort that the 75 inches TV will give to the site cannot be compared to what 32 inches will give. With the 75 inches TV, you might not miss any scene or beautiful moment.
Likewise, bigger screen gives bigger pictures of the market. But then, the bigger and better the picture, the tendency to make a nice or error free analysis.  We also have to consider ergonomics and work comfortability. If you can afford the expensive hardwares, go for them and you will have another experience.

I will not fail to mention that another reason they show those expensive appliances is to make people believe they are successful in trading and register with them.

For hardcore traders, or should I say full-time, that might be a mandatory thing to must-have.

"They want to see everything" and they really need to have a wide scope of view, especially for day traders. With the volatile world of crypto, lots of actions can happen even for a bit of a minute. Having multiple trades currently in action, a big screen should help them monitor all of those.

Self-preference indeed. These traders are more comfortable seeing that way.

Of course, the outcome still depends on their own strategy regardless if they are using big screen or not.

I don't think it will be that much of significance honestly, what does monitor size would affect trading, if you are doing some chart analysis, even using mobile phone would suffice, if you want to see the orders taking place, mobile phone would also suffice, i would say there are so many traders out there that quite literally make their career through mobile phone, I think its more of a gimmick honestly to use humongous size of monitor to see the market meanwhile even if you see all the data of the trading assets all you want, it wouldn't even affect your decision for your trading.
I guess its just more comfortable to have humongous size of monitors but in the end it doesn't make that much difference, but if you want to invest in having good monitor for the sake of your comfort in your working activities then no problem I guess.

Big or small screens have no influence in trading.

1. Analysis skills (Technical and Fundamental)
2. Understand candlesticks, doji and so on.
3. Experience
4. As well as actions in trading

Maybe these 4 things can help you make trading activities easier and profitable.

Back when I used a new trader I got like 4 monitors and couldn’t make any money trading. Now I can trade from my phone and make good trades.

You don’t need many monitors like they do in the Wall Street movies. It helps to have at least 2 so you don’t need to look back and forth between windows. However if you don’t know what you are doing in the first place then having 10 monitors won’t help you at all.

Your post is funny but it mentions about facts in trading. Traders can start with good capital, prepare good trading tables and many accessories like multiple monitors like you did, but if lack of knowledge and more important experience in trading, risk to lose capital is always big.

If it is a newbie trader, having many monitors and overlook at those monitors will destroy that trader emotion. Bad trading positions and bad results would come unavoidably.

Monitors are useless and can bring side effects too. I have one more advice for newbie traders, they should not trade on phones because they can make mistakes when opening or closing their positions. If they have computers, laptops, they should use those devices rather than phones for trading.

 The primary advantage is the ability to view multiple charts, data streams, news feeds, and trading platforms simultaneously. This enhanced visibility can aid in quicker decision-making, especially when seconds count in fast-moving markets.

Larger screens can offer a clearer and more detailed view of charts, making it easier to spot minute price movements, trends, or anomalies. For traders who analyze multiple assets or use various timeframes, being able to display all this information concurrently without constantly switching between tabs or windows can be invaluable.

However, it's essential to note that while having a larger screen or multiple monitors can improve workflow efficiency, it doesn't guarantee better trading outcomes. Successful trading hinges more on strategy, discipline, risk management, and continuous learning. While a bigger screen might enhance the experience and make certain tasks more convenient, it's just one tool in a trader's arsenal.

So, to answer your question: Yes, there's a functional benefit to trading on larger screens, but it's not a silver bullet for trading success. @OP

Not just the beginners but every trader that's seriously doing their task to trade.
It's vital information that they need to check every time there's movement in the market. That's why bigger or having larger screens are a must for them.
If not, they can just have multiple monitors depending on the use of it but the ideal one is the bigger size.

Usually this depends on the time frame used in making an analysis, and the shorter the time frame used is shorter the trading time is more and more formulas that need to be used in making analysis, but if in the time of time 1 month more in making analysis, we don't Need to use a lot of data as an analysis material.
And if you are good at remembering a potential based on sentiment, you don't need to display a lot of data in making decisions in trade.
I want to ask if you trade binary options or trading spots? Because this has a different way.

You don't need to rack up your brain, the answer is obvious. Have you tried trading on your mobile phone and your computer device? Try comparing both experiences. Big screen gives you a better representation of the charts, indicators, and tickers. So it helps you not to strain your eyes, provide comfortability and aid better execution of trade. More importantly, it should be noted that the overall success of a trader has to do with the skills he possesses and not the computer screen size or workroom setup.

I don't trade binary options because I find it more risky than doing spots in the crypto market.
But I am interested in doing that soon when I've got a lot of money to play with that market. Well, as of now, I don't want to get into it because I know that I might not survive there.
So, staying on the spot is the best for me.

I guess not. Because that will depend on your skills, professional traders do not use too big monitors and can even use their smartphones to trade.
But someone who trades may feel that a bigger monitor screen can have a better effect on trading and make him confident to analyze the market.
He can pull the line to the old time to check the pattern and find the other information for him and with his skills, he will find the time to enter the market or just watch the price moves.
But no matter what the monitor is, you still need skills to check and analyze the market and without skills, you will get nothing unless the line.
But if you feel that a bigger monitor screen gives you better analysis, you should buy that monitor to help you with your trade.

The big screen is very important when we learn because here all the information can be seen and worked on But in terms of trading a big screen is very important for beginners if not for experience you should buy big monitor.Working on a small screen is no longer difficult for a person but doing all kinds of work on a large monitor has advantages.There no difference between the two but for ease of use the bigger monitor will definitely help you work better mentally.

This has less to do with the skills of the respective trader but with the time frames in which he trades. An (intra-)day trader will need a completely different setup than someone who does market trades. Investopia has written a very good article about this and also shows how such a setup can look like.

The article also gives setup tips and shows pictures of how to arrange the individual screens.
However, this is not for someone who trades every now and then. You have to spend a lot of time trading here so that this effort pays off.

It is not a larger screen, but rather several screens where you can track several information at the same time. It is more like a map that you need to see from several perspectives to get a better understanding.
this type of trading requires experienced traders and not beginners who are trying to learn how trading can be done.

I also advise you not to be influenced by posts on Twitter, as most of them depict that they have several screens and an elegant office, which indicates that they are doing something dangerous, but the result is the same if you can divide your screen into several screens.

Not just for aesthetics or to influence betting results.
however, the function of a larger monitor provides more comfort and experience. This will make it easier for a trader to view and analyze indicators and others more comfortably because of the larger monitor screen. Yes, this is comfort, and comfort can make us more focused and enjoyable in doing various things. And sometimes they need a bigger screen for certain purposes.

But when it comes to trading skills and abilities, it's different. This is a person's ability which depends on how much effort he puts into learning and understanding trading. In this way, his readiness and the maturity of his trading skills and abilities will be better as long as a trader is willing to learn and always upgrade his knowledge and insight, as well as how to manage himself to be ready for a trading career, along with good emotional management, mental readiness and preparedness. financially too. So that a trader can be better prepared in any way for trading, especially crypto which carries high risk.

I can attest to this on which having multiple monitors could really bring out that kind of comfort and experience when it comes to accessibility since you could really be easily be able to switch up your eyes to look if ever you do tend to trade or stream or accessing your social media unlike when you are always making those +Alt +Tab thing on your Keyboard which kinda hassle or something that not liking because the other browsers are really that been covered. This is why i do have 3 monitor set up on my own rig on which 1 is for trading chart, 2 is for social media apps and 3 is for those searches or for my work on which you could really be able to monitor if ever you do see some odd changes specially on trading.Unlike when you arent that aware then you might be able to missed up some opportunities or trying out to apply some back up plans whenever the market becomes shit.
Somewhat its not really that necessary to have 2 or 3 because 1 is really just that enough, it would really be falling down into the category on which it is really that preferred if you are really that liking on easy and good
user experience on having multiple monitors.

thats true, the comfort could get us more focused into making analysation, imagine making analysation using typical laptop screen, like chromebook which only spans about 11 inches that'd be really scuffed.
if some individual think they are expert enough that they need the edge advantage of having larger screen so that they could analysis better then its fine.
there's most certainly no harm in having bigger screen when you're quite literally making money out of your career from it.
therefore its some sort of investment too honestly, whatever increase your productivity if you put your money into it, then its gonna be all fine.

It is for professional and experienced traders who know exactly what they are looking for. They don't let emotion affects their decisions like newbie traders and they focus on some indicators, information they see fit. Unlike newbie traders, who read many useless information, over attach many indicators on their charts that all together affect their thinking about the market and movement of a coin. With newbie traders, more screens, more emotion, more bad decisions.

Personally monitor size not effect yet in trading because I got comfortable when researching and analyze with chart of some coin trading by using mobile phone, I don't know with an expert or professional trader have user large of monitor size for understanding with chart. Its not really required when trading in bitcoin have to use large monitor size, during we know when support resistance price of bitcoin how large of monitor not really important yet.
All my friend have been success in trading most likely trade by using mobile phone and easily how to manage every time with trading without need to bring large monitor size, but if some professional trader have large monitor for accurate predicting is not wrong because they are enjoying with trading and reading chart by using large monitor size.

Beginner traders will of course be very different from traders who are already professional, because most beginner traders have to spend more time learning while using their money to try it, so obviously those who are still beginners will have more screens and emotions that can arise. as a result of some of the mistakes they made. Because even those who have become professional traders have also made mistakes in the past when they were still learning like beginners today, so this is a comparison of two traders with different levels of knowledge.

Its overkill i would say on which a noob tending to make some multiple  monitors just to make out some trades is never been that efficient or basically you are still wasting money since you cant really be able to utilize those monitors for your advantage on which you would really be still that focusing on learning those basic stuff on a single monitor which i should say that it would really be just that enough.

2 monitors for a professional trader would really be that enough but just like the rest been saying that it would really be entirely be depending on someones preference because we know that there are people who do have multiple jobs specially to those who do WFH which it is really that necessary to have those multiple monitors for best user experience and that comfort which it gives but somehow
you would really be needing to spend some extra for that kind of benefit on which it would really be still depending with your budget.

The best thing to put focus on is on how you would really be able to make yourself that learning without needing to spend much not literally on trading capital
but on the resources that it really needs.

I assume that this depends on whether the trader is trading one asset or several coins, in addition, this will only be necessary for day traders, since I doubt that long-term traders sit all day in front of several monitors and monitor the market. I assume that several monitors in this case will give an advantage, since this will really allow you to monitor several coins at the same time, but I personally do not have such experience, so it is difficult for me to assess how much this really is.

I think the answer to your question is pretty much mentioned in your question. Like you said that the professional traders are created those workplace so the fact is professional trader. I really don't think big screen monitor or small screen monitor makes much of a difference in trading. But for professional traders, time is valuable. I think it's easier to analyze on a big screen and it saves time, I'll actually take it as a main fact.
For example I am a coder, I am coding software on one monitor and watching its output on another monitor. If I want, I can see the output of my code in the browser by pressing alt + tab, but if there is another monitor, I am watching the output and doing another coding, then I can save the time of pressing alt+tab.
So I want to say, first become a professional trader after then big screen can be need ffor you. But for learning or doing trading, I don't think the screen size of monitor is mandatory.

There is absolutely no need for any long term investor to have more than one screen at all, what are they going to look at in a different screen that they can't see in a single one? Plus, it is important for not just a trader, but a day trader as well, because traders could make moves slowly and do not need a lot of screens whereas a day trader would be making trades within minutes and they may need it, plus a futures trader may need something like that as well.

Basically anyone that needs to do something quickly may need something like this and that is the important part of it. I believe that we are going to end up with an issue that would be a bit more problematic in the end and could be considered a bit of a trouble.

I use a mobile phone and laptop for trading and I can say that the experience isn't quite the same because it was more comfortable to use a bigger screen than a smaller one. However, using a mobile phone also has an advantage as you can easily bring it and very handy but if the problem is that I often make mistakes I don't use it anymore in placing orders. For me, if we think about being successful in trading, we need also to level up and acquire stuff that we think would help us to grow like having a bigger monitor size.

Big screens are only for those who look for the charts in all timeframes to understand the trend in each timeframe. They then decide if the trend is bullish or bearish based on the majority timeframes showing where it is heading. Then they mark the support and resistance boxes, and decide their TP and SL for the trade. I don't use a big monitor personally, I'm fine with my laptop and I can trade with it as I don't need longer timeframes to decide my current trade.

I strongly disagree with you, the wider screen has nothing to do with better trade efficiency, what you know is already known. And there is no such thing that wider screen makes you see or do what a smaller screen wouldn't, your laptop would do what any widest screen would do as well as long as it's the same platform, except that the wideness will magnify it bigger in the wider screen.

Those who use a wider screen do that for some reasons;

1. Some use it because of their eye issues.
2. Some use it for people to take them more seriously as a trader or to prove that they are expensive.
3. While the last set uses it simply because they love bigger screens.

That's right, most traders who trade with such a setup where they have multiple big monitors are actually processing multiple things at once, they might be tracking different coins simultaneously or maybe watching the same coin with different indicators and timeframes, or they might have different markets and prices open to decide which one they should choose for a certain trade. And you are right that this is only done by traders who are experienced in this craft.

However, a lot of people might also use this thing to show off, some people who run signal groups might also show such things so that they can trap more newbies because when they see this they will feel that the guy is an expert because he has such a big setup for their trading activities.

Base on my experience actually having a single monitor is not enough reason why im using too my phone just to spare for the additional screen into different time frames, also additional screen gives additional information for example you can make a different TA with the different monitor with the whole potential of the screen so you can easily check if the position is ideal to make an entry or waiting for the confirmation. But you don't need to have a really large monitor 2 to 3 monitor is enough don't get too much excite with the too many monitor its so annoying to your eyes especially at night.

I don't fancy TV screen of traders, most of them are doing show off with the blue and purple colours just to impress people that they are really making money mean while, they don't have anything to show in their portfolio at the very end of the day. Trading is not by big screen or curve monitor for impression, it is the amount of money you make at the end of the day that matters a lot. Imagine showing curvy big screen and then you have lots of losses on your trading history.

It's good to upgrade your trading desk but I think finding a way to win traded and master them should be utmost priority, if you learnt that quickly and master your own technics and skills, then designed and upgrade can follow because by then, money will be there to enjoy and the live the passionated life you always wanted.

That is true, there is really no need for that at all and most of it is just for show off nothing more. Any trader would know that there is no need for anything like that, any random screen would do. Hell people do it with their iphones, why would they need a big screen. But even for chart reading, any decent monitor would do, I mean decent because of course you shouldn't use those old style ones, but anything even with a laptop would be fine, you could do it fine.

There are small laptops that you can use, and can carry in your hands, they are not big, and they would be enough. Would it hurt to have multiple giant screens? Of course not, I am not saying they are bad, I am just saying that they are not needed.

I've seen most of the traders using big (or should I say) longer (width) screens in order to understand the charts and the patterns and spot their trading points. However, there had been successful traders ever since these big monitors were not even available in the markets, so it's just a hoax that you need a big monitor to win in trading. You just need 4 things to get going in trading:

1. Discipline
Always remain disciplined towards trading and don't take it as gambling but a business that can actually earn you lots and lots of money

2. Patience
Even if you are disciplined but can't be patient enough to let your trades make you what you expected from it based on its (possible) true potential, then you're losing a fraction of your possible total earnings you could have made.

3. Self-control
Making money in trading is easy, but you must know when to stop. If you have decided a specific percentage for your daily performance and you have reached it that day, then just leave the desk and enjoy outside.

4. Strategy
Last but not the least, a strategy you can stick to. Because without strategy, you can't win long term.

Yes, again, this relates to the comforts when doing trading activities. For us, most who are only playing with one or several trading pairs, this probably won't have that much of an impact. But for professional traders, who in fact really focus on trading, especially with lots of trading pairs, using a larger monitor and several monitors in one activity can really help.

I have a friend who is focused on trading as his main job at the moment and he once told me that one of his desires was to buy a bigger monitor and more advanced devices. And finally he was able to buy these devices. Because it really affects his trading activities, he doesn't just analyze 1 coin but several coins at a time. He spent a lot of time in front of the monitor, and eventually he needed a bigger one that also supported multiple devices as well. So, maybe this will also really depend on how our trading activities are.

Trading on the big screen of the monitor does not have any special effects but it looks much better and makes it easier to analyze the market. There are many professional investors who trade using such large screen monitors mainly because they can easily understand market trends. Moreover, there is no difference between mobile or monitor, it is possible to trade with experience in both places, there is no special effect. You are right that an investor would benefit from using the big screen for market analysis because they do it. Moreover, trading on a large screen provides many benefits and looks great, which is why most investors use monitor skins for trading.

If you talk about speed and efficiency, then size of your screen can make a trader a million times better.
With a bigger screen size, your productivity a d efficiency improves, your analysis turns up to be amazing and pleasing to the eyes.

Big monitor does not give any big advantage in trading but can help a trader in many ways and make many tasks easier. Compared to the small monitor, the details are seen in a larger size so that all the issues are easily noticed while doing any chart analysis. It is true that Big Monitor will not give any extra advantage to a trader while trading, but Big Monitor will help a trader to see the market in big picture while doing market analysis. That makes those traders more productive.

That's true, everyone's needs are different. And of course, all of this is also to increase convenience and comfort in various access and activities for not only trading but also doing other things that require more devices or more than one at least. And they each have their own function, which is clearly not for style, this is purely out of necessity which can actually increase the effectiveness of our work.

This will also make not only our eyes but our brain tire easily. Moreover, if we do several things at one time that require speed, convenient access, carefulness and effectiveness, then once again, this is not just for style or even aesthetics. Surely all of those have its own function.

Those with better skills I don't think they need it.  Whose skill is good doesn't make much impact on big screen or small screen.  But it will be very convenient for the newbies. It will be easy to see the big chart hole on the big monitor.  The facility will be open to all, but ties are best used according to skill and need.  But I will say what's the use of keeping the monitor big if you don't have the skills.  Efficiency should be increased first. Buying a bigger monitor for convenience is not a bad thing if you can afford it.

Bigger screens make it easier to aim and see smaller changes. If someone doesn't understand it, I encourage you to try to play a shooter on your phone, or try to write an office document. It's going to be much harder than if you had a simple 14" screen. Having an even bigger screen like 20" makes every detail stand out.
An even larger screen will allow you to split it in two and have 2 browser windows next to each other, which is very good for copying text, comparing notes, translating... It can also allow you to have a big chart on one side and your exchange window on the other.

Just remember than a lot of screens won't turn you into a professional trader. This requires experience and luck.

Might people think that if they use big screen, they will become profitable but that is wrong? Convenience is the only advantage that big screen gives to traders as you can do more searches easier but the results are quite the same as it depends on the capabilities of the trader. In fact, one of my friends uses a mobile phone and is still able to earn more and succeed than others who use laptops. That is why I would say that it doesn't really matter, the most important is to have a better understanding of trading and make use of effective strategies.

I consider big screen for the ease of technical analysis, and splitting the screen across timeframes also. 

All technical analysts knows that timeframe matters a while lot and good setups always considers beyond just one timeframe and this is aided by big screens. Other reasons also contribute to big screen preferences but amongst all, for me, its tor the variations during technical analysis.

It's a hard question. Pretty much like asking if a big screen affects the work of graphic designers. Most will tell you that it's not the size, but quality of the display that needs to show colors as close to the truth as they can be, without any artificial changes, shadows, uneven lighting... But most of them also work on big screens. There are some who use smaller ones, but whoever has the money to buy a large high quality display will do it, although the work can be done on a professional tablet (like the iPad Pro) that's just 13."

Large display isn't a must, but it helps a lot, whatever you do.

Convenience is really the only benefit but we do know that once a certain person would really be on the state on which he's that convenient and comfortable then this is where they would really be that efficient on their
trading on which we could really be able to say that it might really be that able to make them good trades if ever they do really find out the relevance on having that multiple monitor but its true that it would really vary or just depend because we know that not all would really be able to afford on making trades with having lots or a couple of monitor on which only one should be enough or suffice and its true that profitability wont really be
depending whether you do have more than one monitor or not because it would really be all depending on how well you do trade but cant really deny that having multi monitor does really give out that kind of convenience.
Just like into my situation on which i do have two monitors which one is intended for social media use and the other one would really be used for regular browsing.

Trading on a bigger screen has no effect on the outcome of the general market and where price is heading but it has on the experience of traders. Ordinarily, what a trader could miss viewing a setup on a small screen could be easily heightened or highlighted on a big screen. It's more so when one has to draw lines of support and resistance over a period of time to mark supply and demand zones. Bigger screens are for better trading experience, and every trader likes to have such an experience. Except for the constraints of cash in buying bigger screens, I ain't sure there's any trader who wouldn't want them. At least, have them at home as a rally point for consultation.
