[mt4trader]

not size of monitor is important but resolution is main 1920x1080 or higher
bigger monitor with lower resolution is no use

here we are not watching the images the monitors good for images may not be good for dots.
we are watching the dots not pixels, dots have only color no brightness.
more resolution more details of graphs. each candle is made up of dots.
so for selection of monitor main criteria is resolution not pixel depth.
a chart in 22 inches 1920X1080 monitor looks same in 36 inches 1920x1080
even 16 inches 1920x1080 looks same
while buying the monitor keep this point in mind.

you can add more graphic card if your mother board support.
multi head graphic cards are available but expensive.
cheap alternative is using usb graphic card.

Pls tell us more abt USB Grphc Card
Thank u

 

[mt4trader]

usb graphic card can be plugged into any usb ports even laptop.
output will be VGA port. you can connect 5 to 6 monitors.
these are available in ebay from 2.6k to 4k.
PROS: just plug and play connect to usb port start working.(onetime driver installation required)
CONS: can not be use for fast refreshing displays like videos and images.
can be use for trading and word processing.

Meaning NOT gd 4 Charting ?

 

[mt4trader]

good for charting. chart refreshing only one second, only one candle.
not good for viewing videos and games. video refreshing is 30 per second and whole screen.
