📌 Experienced Traders — Rules (read before posting)

[Dave]

This section is for advanced trading discussions: execution, risk management, psychology, systems thinking, market structure, and professional workflows. The bar for discussion here is higher than in the rest of the forum, and that's intentional.

Basic conduct

• Assume the person you're talking to knows what they're doing until proven otherwise. This section attracts people with real experience and they deserve to be treated accordingly.
• Disagreement is fine. This is where some of the best arguments on the forum happen. Keep it about the ideas.
• If you're pointing out a flaw in someone's reasoning, be specific. Vague dismissiveness doesn't belong here.

Promotion & advertising

• Do not promote paid services, courses, funds, or any commercial product without admin approval. Experienced traders are exactly the audience bad actors want access to, so this gets enforced strictly.
• Mentioning tools or platforms in context is fine. Building threads around them to drive traffic is not.
• Referral links get removed without warning.
• DMing members with commercial offers will get you banned.

Posting standards

• Be precise. This section isn't the place for vague market takes or surface-level analysis. If you're making a point, make it properly.
• When discussing systems or workflows, include enough detail to make it useful. High-level generalisations don't move the conversation forward.
• Psychology and mindset discussions are welcome, but ground them in practical experience. Abstract theory without real application doesn't add much here.
• If you're sharing results or data to support a point, be transparent about the methodology.

Other things that'll get your post removed

• Content that belongs in beginner or general sections being posted here to get more visibility.
• Posts that use the credibility of this section as cover for promoting a product or service.
• Unverified performance claims used to establish authority.

Warnings for minor stuff, bans for anything deliberate or repeated.
Not sure if something fits here, message a mod before posting.
