Live Trading Room

Question:

Hi Toni, Where are the directions to enter your daily chat room? Thanks!

Answer:

Hi! The link to my live trading room is http://www.tradingfrommainstreet.com/roomsetup.html. You can also use http://www.icechat.net/ to access the room for free without the mIRC registration.

Please note that this is a social forum. I trade at all hours of the day and night, so I am not always in the room personally since my schedule does not give me the time to manage a room full time anymore. I do post market commentary and my trades during the times I am in and a number of traders actively participate in scanning, locating trade ideas and general market chit-chat throughout the day, so please feel free to stop by and hang out anytime.

The room is completely free of charge, although I would like to ask you to please help support it via my Trader's Library affiliated bookstore located at http://www.invest-store.com/tradingfrommainstreet/. Prices there often beat out those on Amazon and through my affiliate you have access to many special offers and discounts. To check out this month's current specials, please go to http://www.invest-store.com/tradingfrommainstreet/currentspecial.html%20.

While participating in my trading room please observe the following rules/guidelines:

1) Clean family-style fun only… i.e. no cursing (or mock cursing), excessive/undeserved trouting (deserved trouting still approved)

2) Everyone knows how difficult trading can be at times, so let’s keep all posts positive and encouraging… discussing difficult issues with trading is encouraged, but avoid unconstructive complaining

3) Only post stocks and setups which are similar to those you see posted by Toni (mwah). This way even newbies will be able to catch on easier to the style traded here.

4) If watching a security for a trade, post the symbol ahead of time when possible, as well as buy/short and the general type of trade, i.e. breakout, 2t, etc. There will be times we will post missed setups though in order to expand our familiarity with certain patterns and learn from them.

5) For stocks which fit the criteria of the room’s style of trading, you are welcome to post these in purple to make it easier to follow the setups and pick them out from the rest of the chat dialogue. You can do this by typing for example “/me watching XYZ.” (without the quotations), which will post “watching XYZ.” in purple as an action. I will use similar commands on the setups I am watching as well.

6) I, or my associates, will often pop in to answer questions, tell stories, teach, etc. You are also welcome to relate market-related material, however, all such activity is restricted during the first 45 minutes of the session. During that time, please keep the focus solely upon current trade activity and ideas.

7) Absolutely no solicitation or posting of services from market vendors such as for-fee chatrooms, newsletters, etc.

8) In consideration of copyright lawsy, cross-posting from other for-fee services is not allowed.

Thanks and I'll see you there!
Toni
