Trading Equipment

Some day trading strategies (including scalping and arbitrage) require relatively sophisticated trading systems and software. This software can cost up to $45,000 or more. Many day traders use multiple monitors or even multiple computers to execute their orders. Some use real time filtering software which is programmed to send stock symbols to a screen which meet specific criteria during the day, such as displaying stocks that are turning from positive to negative.

A fast Internet connection, such as broadband, is essential for day trading.
