Firing Up the "Trader Chat"

[MadMarketScientist 11]

Fellow TL'ers:

 

Sandwiched between "Blogs" and "Exchanges" at the top menu is a menu item called "Chat" -- as some of you know in days gone by this has been a real goldmine of active trading chat. Other times it can get mighty quiet in there.

 

We're going to make some real effort to reinvigorate the chat and make it a great place to hang during trading hours (or after if you like) and both share your trading knowledge, and, if you don't have any -- that's ok, it can be a great place to learn and get some nuggets of knowledge.

 

At the very least it can be a place we can all cry on each others shoulders when the market beats us up and we wonder why we ever started down this path.

 

We have a handful of TL members willing to come in and hang out during trading hours -- of course if you go in during a quiet time of day or night, it might be a little lonesome.

 

But, I'll try to start coming in there during prime market hours and sharing what I know (and I'll fake the rest and we're hoping here at TL that you'll join us and get the word out if you find it useful.

 

This isn't one of those Chat rooms you have to pay for, nor is it one of those black box signal rooms -- it's as good as we all make it, and definitely at the right price, or your money back . Hope to see you there.

If the chat software allows it, posting realtime screen captures could add value to the conversation.

PS I still have an issue with searching for keywords tied to a username, currently it only shows one post when I know of almost a 100 posts from a particular user that have that keyword.

Thanks for feedback.

 

I'll have to check on the posting of the graphic -- at the very least someone could in theory provide a link. If it turns out we need more features for the Traders Chat we'll look to change platforms and upgrade. Just will depend on the usage and requests.

 

I do have someone looking at the search issue you mention as well. Thanks for your patience.
