Question to the Mods - Thyread Placement

If I have short term (i.e. intraday) market comments (and I'm NOT talking about live trading calls here, just kind of a rolling, blog / stream of consciousness type thing) where would you like me to put em.

Should I start a blog? (do we have such a thing here?). Or you guys want a thread somewhere (and if so, where do you want it)?

Happy to try and comply with the general tone of the site.

If you have no particular focus, such as Market Profile or candlesticks, consider the Market Analysis Forum, either an existing thread or a new one.

What Db said, or, if you prefer a blog format you can start one here yes. Click on the "TL! Blogs" box on the menu bar near the top of each page.

Re: Question to the Mods - Thyread Placement

It's really up to you, GJ. If you want discussion and to see others' charts but you don't care about being able to moderate, opt for a thread. If you want the opposite of the above, start a blog.

Re: Question to the Mods - Thyread Placement

Went for a blog in the end. As much because I've not tried one yet as anything. And like you say, at least that way I have some control (not that it seems like I'll really need much on this forum compared to others).

Just my vague mutterings - sometimes I'll be specific on trading levels, sometimes not. Sometimes just my thoughts on market conditions etc. Kind of a cathartic thing or an excercise in marshalling my thoughts, call it what you will. Can't promis it'll be any good, but what the hell.

Re: Question to the Mods - Thyread Placement

A blog would be good because you can control your train of thoughts without outside distractions (if you want to delete the posts from yourself or others, etc).

I consider blogs something like self-moderated threads. Wasp & I started one too btw. With 19 blogs on 10000 members, it seems like the concept has yet to gain popularity though...
