Lounge

What the Lounge is

Lounge in the sidebar is the community where members share records and talk. It has a Community tab and a Content tab; the Content tab is still in preparation. Posts in the Lounge are visible to all logged-in members. Reading and posting are available on every plan.

Browsing the feed

The toolbar at the top narrows the feed to what you want to see.

• Categories — All, Following (only traders you follow), With record (posts with a report, backtest, or review attached), and Text only.
• Search and sort — search by post, author, or record title, and sort by latest or popular (likes + comments).
• Saved — tap the bookmark at the bottom right of a card to save it, then use the bookmark icon in the toolbar to see only what you saved.

Tapping a card does not navigate away — it expands in place. The full text, all record metrics, and the comments appear inside the card, and Collapse closes it. Scrolling down loads more posts automatically.

Posting and attaching a record

Tap New post to write freely, or attach either an analysis report or a P&L heatmap so the discussion has evidence behind it. Before you attach, note the following.

• Only reports you have already made public can be attached. The Lounge never turns sharing on for you, so enable sharing in Reports first. The card shows the report cover with a QR code, and turning sharing off also blocks that link.
• The heatmap is posted as an image. The month you pick is rendered into a single picture and posted with your text. Deleting the post also deletes the image.
• What you attach is frozen as of the time you posted. Editing or deleting the original does not change a card that is already up.
• Your nickname and profile image as of posting time are shown with it. Changing your nickname later does not change past posts.

Interacting

• Likes and comments— comments support one level of replies, and comments from the post's author carry an Author badge.
• Editing and deleting — edit your own post from the ⋯ menu on the card, and your own comment with the Edit button. After editing, (edited) appears next to the time. Attached records cannot be changed — only the text.
• Copy link — copy a post's address from the ⋯ menu to share it.

Following

Follow traders you want to keep up with using + Follow on their card. The Following list on the right gathers them, and tapping a name filters the feed to that person. Choosing the Followingcategory shows only posts from traders you follow. If you haven't followed anyone yet, see the Traders you might like suggestions.

Only you can see who you follow. No notification is sent to them, and who follows you is not made public either.

Community rules and reporting

The Lounge is for talking through records. The following posts are not allowed.

• Investment solicitation such as recommending buying or selling a particular instrument, trade signaling, or guaranteeing profits
• Promoting external channels such as paid signal rooms or open chats, or inducing payments
• Abuse, defamation, discrimination, and false or exaggerated claims such as fabricated profits
• Spamming the same content repeatedly

You can report a problematic post or comment from the ⋯ menu (or the Report button on comments). Reports stay anonymous to the author; reported content is reviewed and may be hidden or deleted, and repeated violations can restrict your ability to post in the Lounge.

A post reported by 10 different members is hidden automatically until we review it. The author sees a notice at the top of the Lounge when this happens, and the post goes back up if we find no issue. Being hidden this way is not itself a finding of violation. See Article 9-4 of the Terms of Service for the full rules.

Posting limits

To prevent spam, posting has the following limits. Normal use will not run into them.

• Consecutive posts need a 30-second gap; comments need 10 seconds.
• You can write up to 20 posts and 200 comments per day.
• You cannot post content identical to what you just posted.
