Day trading scared the hell out of me. I studied up on it learned to read all the graphs and charts. Even had a good friend who quit a job paying 1k bucks a week to go into it. This was back in the sixties and playing the market was like fishing in a lake where ya had to stand behind a tree to bait ya hook.

Things got tougher later and he went broke. Some of his family had given him their passwords so he could manage their accounts and they went broke too.

4 22" monitors, and I could make all 4 one screen . That was kinda cool. I think I paid around $4000 for the setup. Giant liquid cooled heat sinks on the processor. Dual video cards. Top of the line at the time......bottom right was Level II, I could see what the market makers were up to. That worked till algos come on the screen. A good bid with 7 MM on the bid could be gone in a Milli second. Thats when I quit.......

I let my bro use this computer for gaming and he blew the damn thing up LOL.
