#FuturesTrades is
free along with being a serious professional trading chat room and any trader can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries involving 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.
Therefore, we welcome all traders with their own methods and different perspective of the markets as long as they do not violate our
Terms of Use (TOU) Policy.
Thanks for reading the trade and market commentary log.

[11:58] <+jbuch> reading about Obama pressuring wells fargo , JP, Citi and some of the other big boys to lend to small businesses.
[11:59] <+jbuch> In my opinion the majority of small business lending is done by small local and regional banks.
[11:59] <+pat255> instead of taking risks they $$$ from consumers ..
[11:59] <+pat255> higher rates , late fees etc ..fees on everything ..
[11:59] <+jbuch> and the FDIC has for all intensive purposes shut down their lending capabilities
[12:00] <+pat255> y local banks are the best ..
[12:00] <+pat255> for lending but they too have become careful
[12:00] <+pat255> until the economy comes back .
[12:00] <+pat255> catch 22?
[12:02] <+jbuch> I have become friends with my banker he owns 5 regional banks. 2% of his loans are delinqent.
[12:02] <+jbuch> he is not getting any bailout $
[12:03] <+jbuch> he is not getting 0% overnight lending
[12:03] <+pat255> good ..
[12:03] <+jbuch> but he having the FDIC crawling up his ass and making call in a bunch of loans early
[12:04] <+pat255> not good ..they need to help local banks
[12:04] <+jbuch> it is to the point where he is afraid to lend because he doesn't know what the next requirement will be
[12:05] <+pat255> y
[12:05] <+pat255> he should write to O ..lol
[12:15] <+jbuch> they are bending over backwards to help the companies who had a big part in getting us into this mess but they are killing the companies who had good banking practices
[12:17] <+jbuch> drives me crazy

-------------------------
#FuturesTrades is
free and is a serious professional trading chat room in which any trader can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries involving 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.
Therefore, we welcome all traders with their own methods and different perspective of the markets. To gain access to #FuturesTrades...please follow the instructions at the below link.
http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewforum.php?f=5The purpose of #FuturesTrades 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.
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 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 advertisments for guest visitors. More information about #FuturesTrades @
http://www.thestrategylab.com/FuturesTradesChatRoom.htm 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 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 #FuturesTrades.
Reminder, our
Terms of Use (TOU) Policy is a must read to prevent any misunderstandings along with revealing that #FuturesTrades 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.
Last of all, prior to December 1st 2008, archive logs of #FuturesTrades is stored at the below link.
