I envy your office space superfrank.
I trade (or rather 'Attempt' to trade) from my tiny bedroom, hence the little desk space I have available is mostly cluttered

Switesh

Unlike you guys, I decided to set my desk not against the wall, it looks like you are being punished somehow?
Imho, it's really important to keep things tidy and clean, I found it helps me getting concentrated.
My setup needs to grow up, as I find I have little space in my desktop, so a third screen is on the cards now.
On the right you can see a white bottle of water that my beloved wife keeps always full and on the left that small yellow book is where I keep all my daily notes and a record of market behaviour.

My wife paints, you can see part of a canvas on the right of the photo.
On the left you can see a small copy of a paint by Roy Lichtenstein, this one:

hi
This is my new setup.
in my day to day job I need to have many applications/windows open and the ability to cut/paste between them. i love the multiple desktops that you can have on a mac and other functions and wanted to get the best from them.
It wasn't cheap to put together but I recon I can save a good 25% in terms of productivity and the hours I 'save' from my day job can be spent on trading ...so it's self funded (well thats how I sold it to the Mrs!). I had a good year on Betfair last year, so why not spend a bit!
regards
Peter
PS Although I will eventually get around to listing it on Ebay; i still have have my original set up (Ergotron stand/Samsung Monitors)if anyone is interested in buying them!
Edit: Before you ask "Did you tidy it before the picture was taken"..hell yes!

It's really a beautiful setup. I'm not into Apple, but they do know how to make things look pretty.
Curiously I immediately recognized that table, I have one on the countryside
