110 ticks up after two weeks, which is acceptable but not as good as I would have liked... 16 down today but may make them back.
Typical web forum participation
As a slight tangent to the main topic.
Typical web forum/newsgroup activity ratios is believed to be around:
(total membership) : (intermittent participants/long term lurkers) : (heavy users)
=
100 : 10 : 1
90% take a look, brought by a search engine or a link from somewhere else and are never seen again.
10% are happy to lurk as they don't have much to say or don't feel like it.
I don't see any reason to think that it would be much different here.
I guess everyone posting here belongs to the 1percenters.(Except me)
However, 750 heavy users seems a bit high to me. I say that without being able to justify it in anyway.

We seem to have hit some resistance @75,519, but this will be only short term. I have no doubt we will break out of this level and run up all the way to 78,000 (minimum)
I will go:
LONG @ 75,600
STOP @ 75,450
TARGET @ 78,000

the homepage shows approx 76,900 members, but the "Members List" shows 1984 pages of 30 names, meaning approx 59,500 members.
My arithmetic isnt the greatest, but there is a discrepancy of around 17,000.
am I missing somefink?
(sitting on a loss on EURUSD 😢 : went SHORT 1.4853, but it spiked up. )

no, but surely, once they have been deleted, it would honest to subtract them from total.
otherwise, theoretically, the membership could exceed 6.5 billion, the total population of the earth.
EDIT: and what with the "one laptop per child" initiative, this may become reality sooner than you think!

depends what you mean by "regular".
I get 94 pages of members visited in this month (Nov). thats 2820. I would consider that regular. but no data as to how many visits in that month, and how many are newbies.
I think your 3 dozen are "hard-core". 😆
some members may be at work, and are EOD players, and only get to read/post in the evening. some may be australian/far east, and log on during our night-time.
sorry to start this thread up again. was just finding something to do in between trades.
.......some are not at work.....and do not work.....and are EOD players.....and get to read/post full time throughout the day......but do not post posts regularly just to be called traders.....sometimes they may be abroad.......hopefully they will qualify to be called.....Traders.......!!
