 What's going on traders and investors Alex here and today I'll show you guys my traveling trading station because it's my first one I never had one in the past because I was never really traveling and trading but this time I'm going to be traveling with traders so I thought it was pretty normal for me to have a station while I'm there otherwise I would look a little crazy so for this setup we have a keyboard we're gonna have an external mouse we're gonna also have two external monitors and everything's going to be connected to my MacBook Pro that I forgot to bring in this room so I'll go get it right away and the MacBook Pro that I had for about two years and I'm currently running Windows in this I'm not using the actual Mac well I'm actually using the Mac but I'm running Windows instead of the Mac OS and let's just build this setup and as usual all the tools I use to trade will be linked in the description included all of these tools so let's get right in first thing first let's open this MacBook Pro and you guys can see how dirty it is having a bit of battery is pretty good normally and we're gonna be using Windows as an operating system and now it's gonna be connecting soon I would also highly advise anyone to not get a Mac if you're planning to trade on it because it's it's gonna do these weird ass reset and sometimes there's a bit of issues but for the most part it's okay if you're not like in a rush or something like that so right now I have to restart it again the way I'm connecting this with this kit for the monitors you get this not this part but you get this USB-C cable that I'm just plugging into a Thunderbolt adapter because on the Mac you only get two little plugs like this so not quite the best for the keyboard I went with this little blue and white keyboard it totally looks pretty good and it was a cheaper version so it's not bluetooth I'm gonna use everything connected with wires the reason why is this bluetooth is somewhat unreliable when when you're using bootcamp so I'm not gonna take a chance I'm gonna use a wired keyboard as you can see it's pretty small the MacBooks are 14 inch and you guys can see they're like the same size for the first screen we get this one over here as you guys can see it's pretty nice just have to flip it like this and it gives you a pretty big big screen I'll give you guys another view in just a second when everything is down and we're gonna do the same thing with the other one mouse I'm using this little razor mouse I mean it's just super light and it's also cable so that's the main thing I don't need that screen number one is done all right which is annoying the plugs are on this side over here so you get a bunch of cables for the keyboard you've got more wire and the second one is going to have to be plugged with an HDMI and we also need the power adapter because the Thunderbolt gives the power to the monitor but the second one you need a plug right so I'll just show you guys how everything is actually connected so it could be a little bit easier to see you know one screen over here these are 15.6 inches get one more screen over here you get also one more screen over here this one is a keyboard that's actually connected so it looks pretty good this is just a little bit mouse pad and the mouse over here and everything is connected mainly with this little hub over here so you get this is for the mouse and the keyboard these are just connecting the screen the power source and the other this monitor over here and over here this side is the HDMI that connects to this one and this one has the two cable because you need the power too and now you pretty much have your trading station and I'll show you guys how much space there actually is on all this all right so on this one that you're currently seeing so right now there's going to be one level two two level two and all this order window stuff so I can see all my orders because it's pretty important when you're actually traveling that you're able to see your orders properly and they're not hitting on some micro space on your screen I get a news feed scanner on this side you know you can choose whatever you want but everything that you need is going to be there and over here I'm able to look at four charts so maybe the two stocks I would be watching with their higher time frame so like a daily or a 15 minute or something like that everything would be there so 15 minutes 15 minutes two minutes or three minutes whatever I feel like it on that day and all this little keyboard and mouse over here so the last thing we'll do for this video is put everything in a backpack just to see if it's worth traveling with all this or if it's just too much weight and it's not actually possible so you're going to be able to find out for yourself if it's too much or maybe not enough so we've got a slim fit backpack and let's see how everything fit which I think we should probably close everything right you can actually see it's pretty it's pretty thin right for all this unplug the keyboard which is pretty nice that he unplugged from that side so we're not going to do a cable management or anything like that so we'll just everything inside because that's probably just how I would do it to be honest right I don't think I would be worried too much about how everything is packed right so we got just a little backpack it's actually super slim it's good actually see right it's not even bad it's actually pretty as you can see right 13.5 that's pounds so not kilos right depending on where you are
