Benchmark websites providing educational social network
First of all, none of them are about creating a social network of traders sharing information. They are plainly selling whatever little they can and run away. Largely they are anonymous and can close the shop any time. We are going to create an educational platform with values shown upfront with or without subscription. We are not anonymous, we have physical location and real names. we create community, we are not selling bullshit.
As you can see there are not many of any webservices similar to our project.
www.TradersRoundTable.com.sg
www.TRT.com.sg
Those links do not work.
http://www.ecnprovider.com/
This one is such a hoax! I now very similar company in Singapore, founded by former staff of http://jflennon.com . They used to teach forex in Singapore. The jflennon was sold and the staff left with nothing. They decided to sell EA for Metatrader 4. Only complete idiots can buy into this (and I am sure there are some around). This doesnot come any close to what we want to develop.
http://coveredcalls.com
This site is a simplified version of optionistics.com (I am a subscriber to the latter one and to IVolatility.com).
This is a simple screener for overpriced calls (this simply means high IV). There is a small educational component in form of webinars. No community, no care of individuals.
From terrance:
http://www.10percentpermonth.com/Home.html
this is complety anonymous site as ecnprovider.com Their offer is dubious and claims unverifiable. It is not a benchmark for us at all.
http://www.fx360.com/
this is one of many fx oriented sites. Comparable and competing with dailyfx.com, forexfactory.com, oanda.com etc.
It provides important information on calendar events, futures open interests, expert opinions, forex streams, some education.
