the following are some of the reasons i could share with you why trading forex is advantageous compared to stocks;
*forex is traded 24 hours a day from Sunday evening (20:00 GMT) to Friday evening (22:00 GMT)
*liquidity – there are always buyers and sellers to trade with
*forex is often traded without commissions which makes it very attractive as an investment opportunity for investors who want to deal on a frequent basis.
*leveraging – with a minimum account of USD 10,000, for example, you can trade up to USD 500,000.
*profit potential- there are always trading opportunities, whether a currency is strengthening or weakening in relation to another currency.

I want to setup a multi-monitor trading computer like you
see on Wall Street with the four lcd monitors on one stand.
(two on top and two on bottom)
I have also seen them in the Day Trading Software infomercials.
How can I setup a Four LCD Multiple Monitor Computer for
Day Trading the Stock Market and Forex Financial markets?
Is there somewhere I can buy a system, or are there other
options available to consider? I’d appreciate any good advice!
The Three main ways to Setup Multiple Monitors
1) You can buy a pre-manufactured multiple monitor computer. The best place to purchase a multiple monitor computer is at: http://Multi-Monitors.com. They carry a multi-monitor computer line called SUPER PC that can support from 2 to 12 monitors (or more if you ask).
2) You can get a USB to VGA Adapter, or USB to DVI Adapter that will allow you to add an extra monitor to your computer via any USB2.0 Port. You can also add multiple extra monitors by using multiple adapters. This is a great option for viewing documents, surfing the web, using Microsoft Office and many other business tasks. This is not a good option for intense graphical situations such as HDTV, Blu-ray, Gaming and 3D / CAD Workstation applications. For those types of scenarios, it is highly recommended that you purchase a high-powered multi-monitor workstation or a Matrox Dual or Triple Head2Go.
3) You can replace or add an extra video card to your existing computer, depending on how many monitors you wish to support. Although this sounds easy enough, this is a rather complex solution for a beginner, especially when trying to find a compatible graphics card. For this reason, I am going to write an entirely seperate post on that topic and will link to it here, very soon.

Once you have your multiple monitor system set up and ready to use, you will need to enable all of your monitors in your “Display Properties” Control Panel. Here is a great link to a complete and animated walkthrough of how to enable your multiple monitors in Windows.
