Quote from Gabfly1:

Does anyone even know what that means? I hate being condescended to.

I am not a toaster. I am not a waffle iron. I am not a coffee maker...

they are called social media trader.

Quote from emg:

3rd party educational vendors "churn and burn" small traders accounts

Patently false in terms of my relationship with my clients. I have no clearing, broking, data provider, or any kind of 'haircut' arrangement either disclosed or not disclosed with my clientele.

Quote from emg:

of the 98% of small traders lose 602K small traders, at least 95% (572K small traders) of them losses came from 3rd party educational vendors.

3rd party educational vendors "churn and burn" small traders accounts

sure... those stats you pulled straight out of your a** are about as legit as you are a trader

tell us now... how many +1pt profit ES trades have you booked, lately?

Quote from icetrader:

they don't seem to be selling anything, but rather bringing traders together in some new inventive way. i for one am quite interested to see what it is.

of course they are selling something... why else do you think it is a "blind signup and you get the details later" offer?

nice hype video about emotional fluff, unsells what it is not, leaves your excited imagination to fill in the blanks about what it is

wonderful marketing ploy... now what exactly do you get in return for giving them your contact information?

Maybe someone invented a forum where membership required a legitimate trading account with an adequate balance to clear futures.

Great business opportunity - filter out all of the hacks and trolls. Actual trading discussion with input from persons actually knowledgeable in the art.

Model sounds great.

Getting a large group of TRADERS under the one roof (pits excluded) sounds scary. I would start to worry about my stops getting hit etc. Paranoid, well?

All those egos would never co-exist happily in one room

The whole marketing concept here is very professional: create a slick, high impact video theme of "us against the world", we're traders, we won't be dissed, we'll be seen and heard, you'll respect us, etc

Promote the idea of legitimizing the stigma of "day trader" and leave the content or even actual intent purposely vague. That allows the imagination to ass-u-me it is whatever each person desires it to be.

Heck, there are people here defending the service when they have no idea what the actual service is / will be. Proof positive how effective the marketing ploy is.

Someone spent a lot of time and money to get attention and contact info from a lot of traders. Maybe there is no money involved on their end... just the kindness of their hearts to donate time and resources for the betterment of random strangers in this profession.

Well, since the TT Pro License and CQG with about ten live exchange data feeds will run you ~ $2700 per month, the sex might be too pricey for most.

Its called Covestor--- but I am uncertain if they allow futures or if its just stocks.

Cut the CME in on the deal, ( someone mentioned that) and I bet the data feeds are free.....
