Today's Chat log is at
mtrader.com
I think there is some good content yet there is always far more to such discussions than could ever be put into a 1/2 hour event. First, you have traders with all different levels of experience and then you have traders that each want to know various things about various execution systems.
Personally, I think many would LOVE to talk about a very, very specific topic, hash it out, break it down, under a magnifying glass, yet a session with 200+ visitors isnt the place to do it.
What I am proposing is the following:
I would be willing to host a free chat session in our chat site yamner.com at around 8:20am a few mornings each week, for twenty minutes to 1/2 hour, where we can discuss some area of trading with great specificity. I know its early, but unfortunatley I start to get jammed in here around 9:00 so we'd need to finish up before then.
We then also have a Jag Notes Session at 9am ( i have no part of that, Joe in here handles that) where we discuss with our clients what brokerage houses are talking about for the day. But then the site really dies down and is for clients only to get reports or status on their orders.
This would be somethingmany ofyou could do before logging into your regular chatsites whereever they lie. In no way is this any kind of substitute for what many ofyou rely on in Ken's site or elsewhere. Its simply a forum for more indepth analysis of trading concepts, someplace to spend 20 minutes before you 'get down to business'. In fact if you stayed beyond the Jags session at 9:am you'd probably be boredout of your mind.(unless you're a client getting reports, etc.)
With great respect, these sessions will not be geared toward beginners. They will get into the nitty gritty, areas of trading that make the difference. Everyone is more than welcome, but in general, we wont spend the time to introduce concepts like 'what is soes?' or what is an ECN? and what does it mean to display my order?'. We'll have a few special sessions for more basic topics.
One caveat...we WONT be talking individual stocks or have any "calls of the day". I'll leave that to Ken and his well-considered site.
I've changed the login page for our site. yamner.com. You can login as a guest or as a registered user. Registered users have full functionality and permit a more indepth analysis as we'll know who we're talking with day-in, day-out.
If you're interested stop by. If there is interest, we'll put together a schedule of topics to discuss over a particular period of time. I'm open to suggestions.
Any questions, email me.
