Today's, complete text chat logs below.
##TheStrategyLab primary purpose is for you to use the free chat room as a trade journal of your trades merged with WRB Analysis via you posting your trade fills and/or you talking about WRB Analysis of the price action you see on your monitors, posting price action analysis, ask real-time questions about WRB Analysis or posting your real-time trades (simulator or real money) in a timestamp environment after you've received confirmation from your broker trade execution platform.
Simply, the free chat room is a trade journal of your trading day (thoughts and trades).
At the minimum, you must be using the WRB Analysis Free Study Guide. In fact, you must verify your understanding and application of WRB Analysis in your trading prior to being allowed entry into the free chat room...no exceptions.
TheStrategyLab free chat room is located on the Libera IRC network along with being a serious professional trading chat room for traders that want to talk about their use of WRB Analysis (e.g. Contracting Volatility, WRBs, WRB Hidden GAPs, WRB Zones, WRB/WRB Hidden GAP profit targets, Key Market Events, Reaction Highs/Lows, Expanding Volatility, R area of WRB Zone, S area of WRB Zone, midpoint of WRB Zone and speed of the price action) merged with their trade methods to improve the performance of their trade methods regardless if they're a position trader, swing trader, day trader, trend trader or range trader.
Therefore, you're welcome to use TheStrategyLab chat room to ask questions about WRB Analysis, post your real-time price action analysis involving WRB Analysis merged with your own trade methods, post real-time trades via WRB Analysis, or talk about general market issues impacting today's price action involving stocks, futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies as part of your trade journal. In addition, we welcome all traders (beginners, experienced, part-time, full-time) that are merging WRB Analysis with their trade methods or using WRB Analysis to help develop a better understanding of the price action (market context) they're trading.
This is not a signal calling (trade alerts) room. Our free chat room has never been advertised as a trade alerts room and we ban traders for attempting to use our chat room as a signal calling trade alerts room for the purpose to mimic / copy / piggyback / replicate trades posted by any of our members.With that said, thanks for reviewing (reading) the below-timestamped trades, price action analysis or market commentaries and we highly recommend you make reading of the chat room logs (we use it to provide critical missing info for our broker statements) a part of your trading routine because you will sometimes find useful market context information that's critical to understanding price action trading.
Yet, be aware that many traders (including me) are posting our redacted screenshots of timestamp trade fills in broker trade execution platform and quantitative statistical analysis of the trade performance via WRB Analysis in the private thread section at the forum. For members that have questions about their trading with WRB Analysis, I use their redacted screenshots of timestamp trade fills in their broker trade execution platform and their charts to verify if a trader is correctly using WRB Analysis...is critical info I can not get from their broker statements alone.
Reminder...most users of WRB Analysis do not use the free chat room but they still are posting their DOKs to verify their understanding of WRB Analysis and posting redacted screenshots of timestamp trade fills (simulator or real money) in broker trade execution platform to verify trade performance in their private thread.

@ wrbtrader @ Frequently Asked Questions @ What is WRB Analysis ? @ Risk Warnings @ Terms of Use Policy
-----------------------
##TheStrategyLab (located on the Libera IRC network) 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 free chat room nor do you need to be a price action trader (no indicators) because some members use indicators while others do not.
The only requirement is that you've verified you've learned (understood) / applying the WRB Analysis Free Study Guide in your trading. Therefore, we welcome all traders that want to learn/use WRB Analysis regardless if they are beginners or experience traders in price action trading.
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.
The free chat room is not a signal calling trade alert room with a head trader telling you what to trade, when to buy or when to sell. In fact, we do not believe in the business model of a head trader telling other traders when to buy and sell. It's a flawed approach to trading and it's a flawed substitution for mentoring in which a trader can not learn how to be a successful independent trader.
Further, members are not obligated to educate nor help other members but members are encouraged to ask questions about any trades or market commentaries that are posted by others because sometimes the answers contain 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.
Commonly discussed trading instruments from stocks, futures, exchange traded funds, and forex currencies:

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, racist, harassment, lies, hackers, pikers, trolls that's a distraction to members of our chat room, our forum or our website. Yet, the original logs are always maintained for security reasons and legal reasons if needed.
Disclaimer: Today's trading performance is not an indication of my future performance and not an indication of the future performance for any trader that decides to learn/apply WRB Analysis. The risk of loss can be substantial. Therefore, you must carefully consider if trading is suitable for you within the context of your financial condition.
