Monitor mounting solutions for every day trader
Day traders passionately debate optimal computer system setups. There is no element more hotly contested than application windows and monitor configuration.
Single display, multiple, curved, number of display layers, and position angle greatly determine how much data – stocks, news, communities, and more – can be monitored at a given moment. The amount of information that different people can productively consume to synthesize actionable insights varies just as widely. We sell monitor mounts to day traders in EMEA, North America, and Asia-Pacific, and with insight of those interactions built a high-level guide to mount monitor configurations used by day traders around the world.
Given you may spend 7 to 12 hours a day in front of your monitors, it’s important to get the configuration and ergonomics right. Your long-term health and trading success will thank you.
Which day trade setup suits you?
Mobile-ready
Trading may be a side gig, necessitating a laptop for urgent moves when on the go. The monitor in your home office improves visibility and ergonomics that will enable you to consume data and react to it more rapidly and confidently. Especially vital if you’re burning the midnight oil readying to make the jump to full time trading.
Your characteristics:
- Multitasker
- Excellent long-term project planning
- Resilient & resourceful
For you: Dynamic monitor & notebook combo AWMS-2-ND13
For you: Dual mount with swing arms AFS-AT-DC
Essential dual
Day traders tell us that this is the minimum to consider for a fixed (non-laptop) day trading setup. With 2 x 27” displays you can watch SPY/Nasdaq/ASX/FTSE, 1-minute tickers, and trends for three focus stocks while monitoring news and messages.
Your characteristics:
- Function is the priority
- Thrifty & cautious
- Focused & zone distractions out
Elegant ultrawide
Ultrawide monitors are super popular, with a 49” curved display delivering the same screen-space as 2 x 27” flat panels. This solution enables day traders to monitor the same essential feeds as the above setup on one sheer display, with a superior viewing experience that is less arduous on the eyes. The most popular ultrawide is 34”, with 49” screens (pictured) the preferred premium option.

Stacked ultrawides
Day traders able to concurrently manage a larger number of stocks require more display real estate. Stacked ultrawides are the go-to solution in the premium space, with the mount pictured extremely popular in both black and silver. The huge amount of screen space is enhanced via the eyesight-friendly curved format. Many users of this solution tilt the top display ~10° downward for a cockpit feel.
Your characteristics:
- Determined & confident
- Superior analytical processing skills
- Candid preference for luxury
Freestanding flexibility
Recommended for day traders that want the flexibility to relocate without disassembly and reassembly. For complete freedom we recommend a quad desk mount which can be configured for one, two, three, or four displays, in horizontal or vertical configuration.
