#TheStrategyLab (formerly known as #FuturesTrades) is free along with being a serious professional trading chat room for traders using WRB Analysis by itself or merged with other trade methods to improve the performance of those other trade methods regardless if you're a position trader, swing trader or day trader. Therefore, you're welcome to use the chat room to post real-time trades, real-time price action analysis or market commentaries involving stocks, futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. In addition, we welcome all traders (beginners, experience, part-time, full-time) that are merging WRB Analysis with their trade methods or using WRB Analysis to develop a better understanding of the price action (market context) they're trading...improving their position size management and trade management after entry.

#TheStrategyLab is primarily designed to be a trade journal for documentation purposes only so that members can have a real time stamp archive of their trades and their market commentaries of each trading day...giving them a better understanding of their broker statements from one trade to the next trade when they review their performance numbers on any given trading day in the past. Therefore, if you use our chat room...its highly recommended you post messages that reflect what you see in the price action on your monitors. Your diary (journal).

Also, if you want #TheStrategyLab chat room to be educational for you...please ask questions instead of lurking (not participating in conversations).

Quote:
Chat room only for traders using concepts of WRB Analysis. In addition, traders that use #TheStrategyLab are not required to post trades but if you do post trades...the trades must be clear (not ambiguous) entry price/exit price and position size. Traders that consistently post ambiguous trades will be KICKED (removed) from the chat room.

With that said, thanks for reading the trades, price action analysis or market commentaries that's below and we highly recommend you make reading of the logs a part of your trading routine because you will sometimes find useful market context information that's critical to understanding the price action you're trading. To log into #TheStrategyLab chat room...please follow the instructions here at the FTCHAT Support Forum @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewforum.php?f=5 or for registered members of the chat room at the TSL Support Forum @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/viewforum.php?f=164

[16:19:32] <@wrbtrader> Happy New Year all
[16:19:59] <@wrbtrader> Good trading day with a ton of help from the Fiscal Cliff resolution expectation.
[16:23:32] <@wrbtrader> Take care all and see all on Wednesday in 2013 :)
[16:23:41] <MUMU`> u 2 :)
[16:24:10] <+MUMU`> wrb: when are you going to teach us to trade like you? :)
[16:24:32] <@wrbtrader> It's all there at the website...
[16:25:00] <@wrbtrader> Most don't want to use the info because they're busy trying to develop their own stuff.
[16:26:46] <+MUMU`> why? it seems your methods work
[16:28:17] <@wrbtrader> Its human nature for folks to do it "their way".
[16:28:48] <@wrbtrader> Regardless, to the career...we all trust our own opinions.
[16:29:04] <@wrbtrader> Therefore, its hard for most to trust the opinions or methods of others.
[16:29:14] <@wrbtrader> That's life :)
[16:29:37] <@wrbtrader> Here's an example...
[16:29:57] <@wrbtrader> I remember about 18 years ago sitting next to a "very profitable trader".
[16:30:26] <@wrbtrader> Me and two other traders watched him trade about 6 hours per day for 7 consecutive trading days.
[16:30:57] <@wrbtrader> He shared with us his opinions, experience and main concepts of his trade methods.
[16:31:29] <@wrbtrader> I remember one guy saying his own stuff "will work better".
[16:32:07] <@wrbtrader> As a result, that guy dove deeper into his own trade methods and IGNORED what the profitable trader was sharing with us all.
[16:32:30] <@wrbtrader> I think I was the only one really paying attention.
[16:32:43] <@wrbtrader> Anyways, all the others are no longer trading...
[16:32:55] <@wrbtrader> except for me and that profitable trader.
[16:33:43] <@wrbtrader> I just think as traders...its hard for most of us to "let go of our own opinions and beliefs".
[16:34:09] <@wrbtrader> We're just naturally "too stubborn" and not as open minded as we should be.
[16:34:26] <@wrbtrader> Anyways, don't want to preach.
[16:34:39] <@wrbtrader> Take care and see all in 2013...bye
[16:34:50] * wrbtrader is now known as wrbtrader_away
[16:37:30] <+MUMU`> ok thnks..
[16:37:35] <+MUMU`> sorry was on the phone :)
[16:37:41] <+MUMU`> see you in 2013
Session Close: Mon Dec 31 17:12:28 2012

-------------------------

#TheStrategyLab is free and is a serious professional trading chat room involving WRB Analysis in which any trader (position trading, swing trading, day trading) can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries about stocks, futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. Simply, you don't need to be a client of TheStrategyLab.com to use the chat room nor do you need to be a price action only trader (no indicators) because some members use indicators while others do not. Yet, the only requirement is that you want to learn WRB Analysis.

Therefore, we welcome all traders that want to learn about WRB Analysis regardless if they are beginners or experience

The purpose of #TheStrategyLab is that it's designed to be a trade journal for documentation purposes only so that members can have a time stamp archive of trades and market commentaries of each trading day so that they can better understand their broker statements from one trade to the next trade when they review their performance numbers on any given trading day.

Further, members are not obligated to educate nor help other members but members are encourage to ask questions about any trades or market commentaries that's posted by others because sometimes the answers contains useful trading tips.

In addition, our primary job in the free chat room is to moderate the room (keep the peace) because with so many members using different trade signal methods along with different opinions about the market...debates or arguments can easily flare up without moderating. In addition, our presence in the chat room is to ensure it's a spam free chat room during trading although these archived chat logs may contain advertisements for guest visitors.

Also, to prevent the usual mix-up about our different chat rooms, most of our fee-base clients do not use chat rooms just like most retail traders do not use chat rooms. Yet, the few clients that do use chat rooms, our fee-base clients are discussing market analysis or price action only trade signals via concepts from our strategies in the private chat rooms called #VolatilityTradingTSL or #SwingTradingTSL and they're not allowed to do such in #TheStrategyLab.

Reminder, our Terms of Use (TOU) Policy is a must read to prevent any misunderstandings along with revealing that #TheStrategyLab is a serious professional trading chat room and we expect members to act professional. Also, these logs may have been edited (rarely) to remove any messages that a member has complained to me via private message that they consider a particular commentary to be inappropriate, offending or too far in the off topic area that's a distraction when the commentary was posted.

Note: chat logs saved (timestamp) from Québec, Canada in eastern daylight time
