KOdoubleUR posted a link to this video of the guy from HighProbabilityTrade blog going bust on a long position he took just at the close on Friday afternoon. Warning: there is a lot of swearing – it reminds me of how I sounded when I traded futures. Although, thankfully, I didn’t go bust.

I hope the best for the guy at HighProbabilityTrade – he is still young and should be able to get over it. Things like this happen in life – you just have to do the best with where you happen to be at the moment. Remember your mistakes so that you won’t repeat them, but don’t let them keep you down. Make use of your suffering.

I am hoping this will be useful for a couple of reasons. One, you can create your own wallstreak room for anything you want – a “dummy trades” room, for example – or a room for your blog readers. Or if you trade with others (e.g. with a group at a prop firm), you can create a room private to your group.
This is the other thing – rooms can be private. When they are set to private, only those you invite to the room will be able to read and post in the room. None of the messages will be posted to the front page. You could even create a private room where you are the only member – to keep a trading diary of what stocks you are watching or ideas you have.
When you create a room, you can include an image, url and description. The name of the room shows up in large font on the top of the page. Eventually I’d like to make this page layout much more customizable to the creator of the room.
I’ve created a public room for position trades and one for wallstreak help. There is now a tab at the top for “Rooms” – which lists all rooms that you have access to.
Let me know what you think and if you have ideas. Thanks!

It should speed things up a bit.

The way the messages were displayed previously was pretty slow to read, so I fixed it up tonight so that it is a lot easier to read quickly:

Awesome. I’m going to have to organize one on the East Coast.

This one made me laugh today:

The increased user load was causing a lot of problems until I rearranged the Paamayim Nekudotayims. It is surprising how much impact a runaway Paamayim Nekudotayim can have.
