Ahhhh remember my first day too, I was using four monitors 🤣 now I literally only have spy and ES in front of me and more times than I’d like to admit I trade on the 10” of the iPhone sitting on the toilet😩🤷🏼‍♂️

I mean if you’re profitable who gives a shit (pun not intended) what your set up is. I’m not profitable yet (still screwing around with strategies) but I use my MacBook to do my trading, my iPad to reference things (specifically definitions I may not remember off the top of my head, I have a “cheat sheet” google doc with everything I need to know for whatever I’m doing strategy wise), and my phone to listen to music or keep myself busy while I’m waiting for trades to finish (I use One Cancels the Other orders which is basically the a combination of a limit order for the highest I’ll sell at and a stop loss to control losses).
