im looking into building my first pc its for online trading forex market. im not nervous the problem is lack of knowledge I am looking as a second hand HP XW 8600 workstation with 2 times quad core x54503.0 GHz 32gig 1TB SATA compared to a intel 8th gen i7 -8550U if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated,

 
For the best getting any Intel Core i7 CPU 8th gen would be great and as Graphics is a non issue the built in graphics in the CPU will be more than good enough for your use case. I would also go for at a least a 240GB SSD as the operating system drive (they are so cheap now and make a huge difference in performance that you will actually feel) to go with the 1TB Sata drive. It all depends on your budget but idealy 16GB of RAM though 8GB will do.

Equally you could also go for Ryzen though it would have to be the 2200 or 2400 as they are the only ones with built in Graphics..
