Unfortunately the page "http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php" is inferior to what it was before: It was very helpful to see immediately where a new post was made. (Was shown with a visual clue.) Please bring back this feature. (Thanks for not completely omitting this page as in an earlier version.)
I am closing this thread because it's referring to prior version of the site. Click on the the link in the blue bar at the top called "New Posts". No more visual cues are necessary (and you aren't limited to 5 threads per forum of information) because the page is all about what's new since your last visit. Furthermore, you can follow the forums you want by clicking on the "Follow Forum" button at the bottom of any page of threads within a forum, so ultimately you'll be able to be notified via alerts (and emails) about new content posted in only the forums you care about.
