    With my new trading space, was wondering if some of you would like to share some of yours, that is, your head space on how to organize and manage trading. In short, how do we properly process all the information?

    This dimwit always seems overburdened, which isn't helped by the overload of homework set by Professor @gamefisherman, or @mouse 's brilliant and uninterrupted commentary, which by the way has significantly economized. Are you on sabbatical, maybe a Mykonos sojourn?

    It is not so much the type of desktop you run, whether IT or tabletop, as mine are both sufficiently advanced, but rather your organizational methodology that I would like to hear about. But no doubt your type of decor could be crucial in your trading style. We have seen numerous photos in recent years of trading labs that resemble NASA HQ, so if that is important, then please share.

    My own organizational method is limited to growing lists and lists of stocks with a few notes. The lists grow like a train of caterpillars, the pages multiply, the number of note books increase, yet I still feel lacking. Obviously my method is unsatisfactory.

    The only mental comfort I'm getting is by becoming familiar with certain stocks, a mental list that is slowly but surely growing (and does extend further than my beloved for all you wise guys who think you've seen an opportunity to make a wise crack ), so that notes on these are hardly required. But this meager mental comfort leads to a more fearful consideration; does it mean that I have to become personally familiar with the entire ASX before my anxiety subsides?
