I am looking at the below configuration on an Ultrabook for my Trading with Ninjatrader (With TopStepTrader).
7th Generation Intel Core i3-7100U Processor (2.4GHz, 3MB L3 Cache)
14" Full HD (1920 x 1080) Widescreen LED-backlit Display
4GB DDR4 Onboard Memory, 128GB SSD
Windows 10 Home
Is this enough or should I go for a higher Memory and i5 Processor. This falls into my budget. Currently I work on a desktop with 8GB Ram and 4th Gen i5 Processor.
I second 8GB ram. can't have enough plus a SSD is a big help. I bought a laptop for trading on the go and found this configuration suitable for running Sierra Charts.
15,6" Asus P2530U with i5 6600U Skylake processor,
8GB Ram, and EVO-850 SSD
running windows 10 home
