Go with trading intra day, you might need these things but I find all these are a waste. Go with long term trading and you will be able to keep a stable sleep pattern and trade at the same time. The more you go into spot and all those leverage and All the more stress you will have to face.

Why increase that stress with chance of varicose veins and all?

If you feel it's good for you, do it but I don't know ho long in the older age you would be able to continue standing like that. Ergonomic chairs are good as an alternative but the best is to move to long term trading.

Even then a good trader knows when to buy or sell with just a device in any posture.

But here's a question for you, fellow Bitcointalk traders: Does standing really help make better and faster decisions in the high-speed trading world?
I think this all boils down to preferences, as well as how people take care of their physical health, such as getting a good amount of sleep and maintaining a proper diet, among other factors.

However, on a scientific note, there is research[1] that shows standing could affect a person's concentration because standing utilizes some parts of our brain instead of allocating them to more intensive tasks, such as trading, for example.

But if you have the budget and you think it's cool? Why not?

I find that standing makes me more mentally alert and allows me to make decisions faster, whereas sitting makes me feel slower.
However, I usually limit myself to one or two trades, because too many trades can cause my mind to make bad decisions, which leads to more losses.
