I've never understood the benefit of so many monitors on your PC? Sure having 2 makes sense sometimes or maybe 3 at a push, but 6 seems like overkill unless you're a CCTV operator or something.

3 PCs two monitors per PC one Reuters traders keyboard connected via a WEY TEC switch you can move the mouse and drag items to any PC using just the one mouse and KB. Setting up 9 you need a ladder.......

Its all data feeds coming in analytics, prices of commodities/stocks etc etc. A Reuters terminal will cost you about £1500 pcm one floor where I was working at had 400 traders so thats £600,000 pcm Bloomberg a bit more I believe.

I have worked in quiet a few of the top banks over the years even did a stint at the old stock exchange. Some funny stories to tell.
