Hello all, I currently have a 43 inch Tv i'm using as my trading monitor looking for suggestions to keep it or set up a 4 monitor display as I am going to be trading multiple instruments with a Bot. Thanks

If your 43" TV is 4K with 4:4:4 chroma and low input lag you can set it up as (4) 21.5" monitors with Display Fusion.

A 4:4:4 chroma TV with low input lag is usually cheaper than 4 smaller monitors and all the stands. If you don't have 4:4:4 text and numbers will be blurry. Bad input lag will cause ghosting.

I currently use a 43" TV, (2) 21.5" monitors, and (2) 19" monitors. If I were to clean build a trading rig I would do a 50" TV and (4) 24" monitors or (2) 50" TVs to save money. The big TVs will have viewing angle problems because you are sitting so close. Small monitors allow you to adjust for best viewing angle

The advantage of a large 4k TV is it allows 3060 vertical height for things like time and sales tape.
