Do you ever trade at work or trade on your work computer? Any reason why you think this might be a terrible idea?
I do trade at work but I don't trade on our work computer. I do all trading on my personal computer or on my phone. One thing that can make trading on my office computer a terrible idea is that, I may not be there forever and the system is not too secured for my account details, it could be invaded by anyone and could expose my account to hackers. Why I could even trade at work is that I am usually alone in my office so, I have some privacy
Having a good background with your company first and foremost you will think about securities of your account, the possibilities that being exposed or being hacked by the network admin is very possible. Work computer is not yours personally and every IT guy can check it out without your knowledge
so be very careful especially traders who have a huge amount of assets to protect, it's always better to use your personal devices and have all the securities that you need to protect your money.
