Crypto charts etc. I want to work on the charts in a monitor while using the laptop for actual trading. Basically I went down a rabbit hole looking at specs, refresh rates , connection type, etc but I’m thinking for what I’m doing, most of that stuff is not important??? I arrived at the conclusion that about 27 inches would suit me and that flat would be better than curved. Does that sound about right for what I’m using it for?

Andrew 4762 Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 @Christmas Tree Ahh I see, yeah you're on the right track, you don't need anything fancy for that. The other stuff is more for multimedia/gaming types where colours, fidelity, refresh rates etc. will actually make a difference. As long as your laptop has a port that can connect to your new one, you'll be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, can I buy a wireless mouse that will work on the monitor or does it actually need to be wired to the monitor when using a laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The monitor is just a screen, it can't do any computing on its own. Its just an extension of your laptop so whatever mouse you're using on that will work across both. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This bit's confusing me. Are you actually after a monitor that you can connect your laptop to do this charting work, or are you after something independent of your laptop that you can do the charting stuff, like a Surface Studio? Which is basically an all-in-one computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter tells me it’s called extending your laptop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trophyshy 7083 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 @Christmas Tree , which do you think will have a greater impact on value of Bitcoin this year? The ETFs or the halvening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ETFs or the halvening? I’ve no idea mate. On my discord group, the main guy reckons we will see a new BTC ATH in 6-8 months followed by a Bull run high 12 months after. Basically I think it will really start to heat up in April to May when the US is predicted to cut interest rates. Some of the Alts he recommends are going crazy already such as Fideum. Just wish I had more to spend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I just follow the Guru. Buy when he buys, sell when he sells. Luckily he's pretty good at researching the Alts we are involved in.
