Guys, a refresher:

Here are the rules:
a) One of your photos must show the futures io logo on our website. Don't forget!
b) Take a selfie or have someone take a picture of you at your desk! Optional, but highly recommended! (Qualifies you for a 50% discount on FIO Elite membership.)
c) The photo(s) need to be uploaded here on futures io. No linking to external sites. No videos.
d) You may submit multiple photos (please do!) -- but only your first qualifying post in this thread will be considered for the contest.
e) You are ineligible to win if you have previously won a Battlestations event within the last 12 months.
f) The contest period is March 1 to March 31, 2021. All decisions made by futures io are final.
g) Winners will be chosen by counting the numbers of "Thanks Received" on each qualifying post.

I noticed a few entries without the Futures.io logo in the pics, would hate to see you guys miss out on the opportunity to win prizes!

Here's a link to the original post for this event:

Hi Guys,


First things first … I wanted to make sure I got Futures I.O. logo in there so that’s the first photo A bit small but do hope you can make it out all right. :-) As for the hardware it is a 32” main screen surrounded by three 25”. I thought about getting 28’s but liked this ratio a bit better. As far as the PC specs are concerned I really don’t remember other then I paid a lot of money for it last year. Obviously not a tech guy here, just a trader, and have been doing it for a little over thirty years now. I like to say it’s not the dog in the fight but the fight in the dog. So while not the focus of the contest I do want to point out that what you are looking at is a combination of advanced volume analysis, a basic indicator tweaked the way I like it, an advanced cyclic method I developed, and a geometric pattern I also developed that I use for hunting S/R areas. In the background I have Wave59 running which I pull up whenever I want to look at things from a different perspective. It all adds up to a combination that works for me and hope your setup does the same for you.


Good luck to those who enter the contest and the best to all here,
Joe

EDIT: My photos don't seem to expand like all the others here and was wondering if someone could tell me what I did wrong. Thanks -

Wall mounted a 50" Toshiba 4K TV with a thinner one beside for my 30 minute footprint.
I'm running an R.O.G Asus gaming computer and a Mac (for the news)





Set up a "captains chair" to be at the right height.. (found it at staples - reasonable) Adapted the
mouse board from a lap desk to the arm rest. The post mounted keyboard is from my laptop
truck mount - works really well. (I'm also high enough to look out the window )

Wow! CPU speed of 39,255!!!

That will get the job done!

I recently went from a speed of 2469 (Dell Optiplex) up to 18,327 (Ryzen 5 3600X New build). Finally the new pc could handle the NQ data without freezing up!

Xidax looks like a decent company.
