Chat Problems

Guys and ladies, don't spend time on stupid troll, he doesn't understand that non-formal communication of kind of virtual traders lounge while often seems like completely not trading related talk, often can be a brilliant discussion with invaluable trading insights too.

Only losers need pure calls to follow them, real traders discuss general ideas which lead to great improvement in market understanding and trading technique quality...

And that's exactly what ET chat was about...

But no problem, really, as cvds said, people just found their own communities, it's not hard to do these days...

These people lose nothing, it's ET loses loyal users...
 
Quote from TheStudent:

Baron,

Chat doesn't appear to have many users at any one time, but the number of different users who have used chat at any one time probably numbers in the thousands.

And chat has been a resilient beast - some loyalists have been in chat every trading day for the past 3 or 4 years. Some of ET's most committed members are in chat, so perhaps the low daily attendance doesn't tell the full story of chat's value to ET.

A lot of people meet briefly in chat as well to do some real time conversation, so to the extent that ET's purpose is to create a community of traders, chat serves as a side meeting room when people want to meet "face to face" after browsing the boards.

A few of the popular journals are written by chat residents, like Nodoji, CFerret, 1Reason and many of their readers pop into chat from time to time to talk to the journal authors.

In short, chat's value to growing and maintaining the ET subscriber base punches far above the apparent attendance numbers.

Hi Baron,

I couldn't agree with TheStudent more. As a long time chat regular, I hope you find a way to keep the chat going. I know we are relatively few but like stu says, chatters add to the board traffic and loyalty to ET- chatters always have an ET window open and rarely a day goes by where discussion doesn't touch on and link to board threads.

Also, on days of major news or market volatility the chat is packed and serves a valuable real time function not available from the bulletin board format.

Please reconsider.
