Looking for a trading laptop


Xerxes

Question

Is anyone using Prorealtime on an LG Gram?

My trading template consists of four charts at different timeframes, two of which contain several custom indicators and several thousand bars. The other two have only a couple of hundred bars and no indicators. I also switch between different issues occasionally and need the switch to happen with reasonable speed (sub-second).

All of this runs perfectly on my small desktop computer but I was surprised to find it quite sluggish and laggy on my M1 MacBook Air (which is a faster machine on paper). I had already decided I need a portable machine with a larger screen, hence my interest in the LG Gram.

Hi @Xerxes,

I have never used ProRealTime on a M1 MacBook Air but looking at the specifications it appears as though it should work fine.

ProRealTime has a built in tool where you can test the performance of the device, to access this tool go to help->computer performance, then click on "close platform and scan on next launch" This should give you some idea on why the platform feels sluggish. 

Another thing you can try which in the past improved the performance on some older machines was to disable 3d chart effects and anti aliasing. You can find this setting under settings->workspaces->colors & effects. The charts won't be as pretty but it should be much faster.

Hope this helps!

Thanks @AntonL-IG. I'll try that out tomorrow.

    • I've been exploring the world of play-to-earn gaming recently, looking for something that's not just about endless grinding but actually offers a fun and rewarding experience. OGC really stood out to me because it combines gaming with a sense of community in a unique way. OGC isn't just a game; it's a platform where you can play, earn, and even help shape its future. You're not just a player; you're part of a community with a voice. The idea of earning crypto while playing games is exciting, but what makes OGC special is its focus on community involvement. Your feedback can directly influence the development of the game, which is a big deal. I've also heard that the OGC token is available for pre-market trading on Bitget. While I'm still getting to know the platform and its features, it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Has anyone else tried OGC? What has your experience been like? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any tips you might have.
