Hello,

 

Which trading room is being used by forum traders. Yesterday I have tried Campfire from the site toolbar but no traders. Is it the one in Trading Rooms?

Yea we use campfire. So im assuming not many traders occupy the chat room now? I personally can no longer make it due to the time difference. I might just revert it back to the old chat system if no one is using campfire.

I don't think it's an issue of the software. I just think when you stopped coming around, James, a few people dropped out and before you knew it nobody showed up. It was a good thing but it needs a leader. Tingull was sort of second banana, but I think his mentor advised him that chat rooms might be distracting.

 

I miss it, but I can't be there every day either nor is it helpful for me to be chatting all the time. Sometime I need to just focus on the market. But the camaderie is nice.

Yea, not a lot of us use it anymore. My coach as well as my girlfriend and others who know my 1 track mind thought I ought to concentrate on the markets instead of anything else. So far it's been working out nicely for me.

 

But yea, its tough to trade and talk, especially lately.

It is tough, that's for sure, esp if you have a group of traders all trading different setups. One idea, which is taken from this thread on et, is to start a thread for real-time (or close to) postings for the sake of some sort of chat during the day. Again, it may be just as distracting as a chat room, so I don't know. Just an idea. I enjoy the camaraderie of talking w/ other traders, but it can hurt your trading as well. A fine line to walk.

 

Any other ideas besides the chat room, which obviously has lost interest, or an ongoing thread?

I'm with you there, buddy. That actually explains why I have been gone so much...I took it to the next level of isolation!

 

How's it going Chris?

Well, let's do it. Everyday someone start a daily chat thread. Then we can follow it and contribute at leisure during the trading day. It should be less intrusive than a chat room.

 

What do you think?

Chat rooms are definitely distracting. I remember seeing a 200 point or so profit disappear in the days after the February 27 slump because I was too busy chatting to monitor my position properly and make a timely decision. I'm glad I wasn't in any chat rooms this Friday. I like the idea of a daily chat thread where we can cheerlead the market up or down ET-style but without the abuse.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
