Hello Jonny!
If I where you I would consider this monitor as well. If I knew that I would have needed two 38 inch I would have compared it to the 49 inch as well. Unfortunately it wasn't available when I bought my screens and I didn't have the patience to wait for it either.

Hello,
Thanks for answer. I also look on this type of Ultra-wide monitor. But in my case better use 39 inch. 49 inch too big for me) One monitor I want use for trading and second one for other work. And may be install in two different corner of table.
But on your photo install two monitors together also looks very good. This is next question for me

This is the room with my Battle Station. Many thanks to the FUTURES.io community for helping me to continue to improve on my Trading War Room. My recent additions and changes included adding Portable monitors to my Traveling /Backup laptop, adding dual 24 inch Dell Monitors to my MacBook Pro (internet computer), and reconfiguring my screen setup to focus more on order flow / price ladders. Special thanks to @ninjus for inspiring me to get traveling USB monitors (ASUS MB169+ 15.6” Full HD 19x1080 IPS Portable monitors. Also, Special thanks to @Jason Berry for inspiring me to have a better ratio of Price Ladders to Charts and use to order flow as professional traders do.
Hope you enjoy my Trading War Room !!!

My Battle Station (trading computer) is a custom built system with Dual DELL 49” Curve Monitors !!!! I LOVE THE DELL 49” Curve Monitors !!!! Each Dell 49”Curve Monitor replaces 3 of my previous monitors and got rid of A LOT of cords. Also, NO SPACES between charts and Awesome resolution.

I use the Razer Obweaver for Hotkeys and Macros so that I don’t have to take my hand off the mouse and reduces clicks for commands.

Orderflow (Bookmap) and Volume / TPO profiles are the main tools I use for trading.

Thanks,

This is very similar to my setup, except that you are a much neater person!! I haven't submitted a photo of mine because it looks like a computer setup my grandmother might have, with notes taped here and there, old cables and electronics sitting dusty on the shelves. Someday i really must do something about that!
