I trade off of two different setups, primarily, believe it or not, I trDe from my car about 90% of the time. From there I have a dual monitor setup using a steering wheel laptop desk, an all leather mouse pad, a surface pro and my phone. Obviously all of the trading happens on the surface pro. The phone is really for a hotspot but often used to check FIO and other sites while trading. If I don’t feel like sitting down, with just a 90 degree turn of the surface pro, it’s now setup for standing mode.
My preferred trading station is my home setup.
