any good chat rooms in Paltalk & Hotcomm?

  1. Absolutely, I always question it though because I know that more often than not the chatroom is the main business, so unless you show me that you actually make money trading, you are just an imposter. It works so often that the very rare exceptions only prove it...

    I also agree with both of you. It is really hard to shuffle through so many chatrooms. For the most part, they all seem the same. If you are trading well, why would have a chatroom? At the same time, I have seen a couple that actually show thier trades. Not saying they are good trades:), but at least show them.

    NO P&L records- NO credibility?

    So with the exception of Futures Trading Room which qtip was in, there is absolutely no guru run trading room mentioned on this thread who actually shows their P&L or their trading account results.

    Seems to me if any of them were actually successful, that they would most definitely be proud enough to post their actual account results in order to keep and attract subscribers.

    Yes, I agree, no P&L, no good. They are actually trying to attract me back but i don't have the time. Every so often, they send out these performance reports.

    Just for the record, the website is wwww.ftacademy.com

    If any of you do use them currently, please give us an update.

    thanks!

    I'm not positive about this, but unless they are registered with the NFA they may not be legally able to show real p&l statements. Again I'm not positive on this.

    Best Free Rooms IMHO

    HotComm

    Woodie's CCI Club...biggest by far
    Trader's Haven

    mIRC

    #emini on Othernet

    But a thought. If you want calls, why don't you just have someone else trade for you? Much easier!

  7. The ES market is being so constipated that it surely must be because of chatroom gurus waging this tug of war with their 400 contracts in 30 trades a day. Forget hedge funds...

    Oops, I am sorry, I forgot that simulated trades have no impact on the real market...

    LOL :)

    Oh, the other thing about www.ftacademy.com is that I didn't have to purchase hotcomm :) I really hate the way Hotcomm pimps traders out...

    The chatroom I was in didn't cost me any money to come into thier room.

    Here's one for Samson, just noticed Traderbrad is back on Paltalk. I guess Samson must have eaten his lawsuit against him if he's still out peddling his wares. Dang I hope the markets get moving I'm spending too much time lurking around!:D
