The only issue i had was the cable to it. I found it must be an active or powered HDMI cable. An AOC HDMI cable otherwise the picture is not clear. Its a cheap 4K tv but the picture is perfectly clear on 4K resolution with the correct cable.

Hello friends,

Here is the trading station I use. Over the years I've tried many different setups and ultimately SIMPLE wins it all for me. The office is surrounded by a forest which I something I also found to be loving. Just going out quietly for a walk is a blessing.

Why am I entering?

I have tried many combines in the past but haven't been able to pass yet, however took the lesson and moved on. This time all the constant improvement will be with me to pass the Gauntlet. I will share the whole journey with you in a FIO journal and offer third of the gift card to the local dog shelter, so that the support goes to their well being as well.

Best,

M

Very good

Hi guys,

It is my pleasure to announce a new challenge event for November 2019: Battlestations! (with $1,400 in prizes)

With this event, we are encouraging members to share pictures of their trading desks. We will be giving away $1,400 in prizes in total, with all prizes being equal to the top three winners.

1st, 2nd and 3rd place will each receive:
  • $150 Amazon Gift Card - plus 1 month of Earn2Trade's 100k Gauntlet Mini™ ($315 value)
  • $150 Amazon Gift Card - plus 1 month of Earn2Trade's 100k Gauntlet Mini™ ($315 value)
  • $150 Amazon Gift Card - plus 1 month of Earn2Trade's 100k Gauntlet Mini™ ($315 value)

These prizes are provided exclusively by @Earn2Trade, a site sponsor on futures io. Please thank @Earn2Trade for their contributions to our community, and for agreeing to exclusively sponsor the November Battlestations event!

There are just a few simple rules to follow:
  • a) The contest begins November 1 and ends November 30. All decisions made by futures io are final.
  • b) One of the photos in your post must show the futures io logo on our website. Don't forget!
  • c) Take a selfie or have someone take a picture of you at your desk! For at least one of the photos, we want to see your face! We are making this optional but highly recommended.
  • d) The photos need to be uploaded here on futures io. No linking to external sites. No videos.
  • e) You may submit multiple photos (please do!) -- but only your first post in this thread, containing photos, posted between November 1 and November 30, and following our rules, will be considered for the contest.
  • f) Winners will be chosen by counting the numbers of "Thanks Received" on each qualifying post.
  • g) You are ineligible to win if you have previously won a Battlestations event within the last 12 months.

I am looking forward to seeing a lot of great trading desks! Please remember to follow the rules, and please remember to vote by hitting the "Thanks" button.

Thank you @Big Mike and @Earn2Trade and for all who have voted! It means a lot to receive this support and as I promised I will journal my process and spend part of the gift card to share the FIO love.

Regarding the prize: My trading has considerably slowed down recently and I would like to ask @Earn2Trade if it would be possible to run a normal gauntlet where I have two months and slightly different ruleset, instead of the 100k mini, which requires much more of an aggressive trading style.

Greatly appreciated,

M

Congratulations on winning! You can do the regular Gauntlet if you'd rather do that one!

Shzhning,

Would you share what studies you are using on your 5 and 10 minute charts? Also the volume studies below?

Looks like a modified Ichimoku on the 5 min?

Thanks
