Alex, it took me a while to understand your post. You really mean traders just live and sit on IHUB to be credited and backpatted for their gains? I thought you were giving us some trading advice on 17 minute chart timeframes or something to that effect. I'd hate to think you are right. I use the edit here to correct typos, add more ideas and such, but who would bother to change a trade when no one really cares? What is the point in an invisible and one dimensional persona with no actually identity where anyone can be posting from Ryker's Island or some rehabilitation center or worse for just the 'glory' of the pat on the back. I've been stinged a bit from certain posters here (in my pocketbook)from a certain service I joined and lost in, but I'm getting over it since i'm learning more than I lost from the irresponsible calling of a certain poster.
I think anyone who makes a 'life' of sitting on IHUB is definitely in some kind of emotional or social crisis. I don't post realtime trades because I have a life outside of trading, definitely outside of IHUB and could care less if I don't get any pats on the back (and I haven't <g>) I believe a few posters might be sincere or else the IHUB idea is based on a fallacy and fullfilling a desire for folks to be 'somebody' in this very nebulous cyberworld where nothing is as it seems! I pity anyone whose life is IHUB or any chat room or messageboard. Was I wrong to think this forum was to discuss and throw around ideas? I know one or two are using it for promotional reasons and marketing but does it turn out these traders are at least honest enough to try to gain some bucks beyond the 'phony' cyberspace accolades from another one-dimensional fraud to another. I think you might be wrong, I hope you are. If you're right I'll never sign up to this IHUB. Is it nothing more than a compilation of lost souls looking for validation and acceptance?
