Our chat room aims to be an environment in which traders can effectively locate and share trade ideas and market news. We strive to be inclusive and educational, and to foster a community that is welcoming to traders of all experience levels and from all walks of life.

At the same time, we focus on the safety of our members and adhering to rules and regulations set forth by regulatory agencies. We always strive to better the experience of the community as a whole while protecting the integrity of our business so that we can continue to support traders around the world for years to come.

Full terms of use for our site can be found here in our Terms and Conditions. By entering our chat room, members agree not to use the platform in any manner that is, or could reasonably be construed to be, in violation of (or encouraging of others to violate) these Terms and Conditions.

This page is designed to help simplify the terms that most commonly apply to our chat room while adding context in plain language. You can click on any rule to expand it for additional information or clarity.

By using our chat room, members agree:

Not to use Warrior Trading’s services in any manner that is, or could be considered, unlawful. This includes violating any law, rule or regulation related to securities or investments, any rules or regulations set forth by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and/or rules of any national or other securities exchange and any regulations or other pronouncements having the force of law.

  • Any discussion related in any way to market manipulation is strictly prohibited. Similarly, members should not be advising others on whether to buy, sell, or hold. This job should be reserved for licensed financial advisors. Any member who is a licensed advisor should not be using our chat room to exercise this license.

Not to share sensitive personal information with members, or request such information from others. This may include login, account information, social media profiles, or other personally identifiable information such as a phone number or address.

  • Sharing or requesting contact information is prohibited in our chat room as a measure of security for our members. In a public chat room, sharing with one person means sharing with all.
  • This also helps to prevent spam and scams from originating within our platform.
  • We don’t facilitate private exchanges of contact information so as to avoid possible ill-intent from another member.
  • We understand the desire for community members to connect in a way that is personal and meaningful. Members are welcome to have light off-topic and/or trading-related discussions publicly with others in the Warrior Lounge.

To follow guidelines (see below) when sharing links, files, and other resources. This includes not marketing, promoting, or broadcasting competing third-party services.

  • All links, files, and images that are not from the Warrior Trading website will be placed under review for our moderators to approve or deny at their discretion. As you can imagine, if we allowed any and all third-party resources, there would be a significant amount of people joining the community simply to share affiliate links or try to advertise.
  • Acceptable files include images of stock charts or earnings or other stock-related information, as well as P&L images (more on that below).
  • Images must be shared as .jpg files. Learn how to post an image to the chat room here.
  • Members can submit their own scripts, layouts, or other information for our Student Resources section of the education portal, if interested. Email us at [email protected] or fill out our support form here if you would like to submit something for review. Resources must be your own (such as your personal layout for a trading platform, or a self-made guide on how to track trades) and should not violate the copyright or intellectual property of another entity or individual.

To follow guidelines (see below) when posting one’s P&L, whether through a chat message or image.

  • We follow a strict compliance program that is designed using the guidance of rules set forth by market regulators. For compliance reasons, claims of profits $25k and above must be verified. Our application page can be found here. Members who have had profits verified in the past will have a “profitability badge,” which you can learn more about here. You can also email [email protected] with any application or verification questions. Do not send statements via email.
  • No account numbers or other sensitive information should be visible in posts. Please edit any P&L images as needed to remove sensitive information before sharing.
  • Members are limited to 3 P&L posts per day. Moderators will deny additional posts.
  • Members who continue to post consistent profits or large profits may be asked for verification of profits per our compliance policy.

Not to broadcast or reshare our chat room or its content; not to make your account or any portion thereof available to the general public or any portion thereof.

  • Rebroadcasting or reposting content from our website and services is a violation of copyright and intellectual property laws. The content, materials, services and other intellectual property contained or embodied in our site are owned by Warrior Trading and are protected by patent, copyright, trademark and other similar laws.

Not to bully, intimidate, or harass the community or any specific person, whether a fellow member, a junior moderator, or member of the Warrior Trading team.

  • To ensure that our community is welcoming and a productive place to trade and learn, commentary should fall under the category of “family friendly.” We do not tolerate content that is hateful, threatening, pornographic, incites violence, or contains nudity, graphic material, gratuitous violence or anything else found to be objectionable by Warrior Trading in its sole discretion. Please refrain from cursing or using language that is foul, derogatory, or otherwise offensive.

Not to post political commentary unless it is objective and related to trade ideas or market activity.

  • We understand that politics and world events can heavily influence the market. Our community includes members from all around the world with different opinions and beliefs. To promote a productive trading and educational environment for everyone, any political opinions or comments that invoke political discussion may be removed unless it pertains directly to the stock market.

Not to post comments that can be easily misinterpreted. This can include “fake news” comments, “inside jokes,” or any comments that may be otherwise misleading or mistaken as true.

  • Please refrain from sharing comments in a joking or sarcastic way, as misinterpretation is not uncommon in these situations.
  • Information that is false, unverified, misleading, or does not provide a source for its claims is subject to removal. For compliance purposes, we ask that, when possible, claims provide information about what source the information is from to help ensure accuracy. This is beneficial to the community since it allows each trader better resources with which to guide their own decisions.
  • Our chat rooms are moderated for everyone’s safety, security and enjoyment. We require all chatting to be in English for this reason.

Not to use the chat feed in a way that is disruptive to others or discourages the larger community from participating.

  • We encourage our members to use the “ignore” feature to ignore any members that they find are not contributing to their own growth as a trader. In the event that our moderators or compliance team finds that a particular discussion or member is disrupting the peace of the chat room, moderators will intervene to ensure the environment remains productive.

To review announcements and use the various chat rooms (such as the Small Cap, Large Cap, Lounge, and Support Rooms) appropriately.

  • Reading daily announcements and using the various rooms of our chat room platform appropriately benefits everyone in the community. It allows members to find the discussions they are looking for and information that is relevant to them and, most commonly, it allows active traders to focus on trading and avoid distractions. To learn how to access announcements, please review this page.
  • For clarity on the purpose of each chat room, please review this page here. Messages that don’t fit the guidelines of the chat room they are posted in may be moved to the appropriate room, or deleted.

Not to use capitalized words or letters in succession unless referring to a stock ticker or market-related acronym..

  • To benefit all traders in our rooms, capitalized words are reserved specifically for references to the stock market so that traders can more easily locate trade ideas in the chat rooms. To most effectively identify stock tickers, members are encouraged to use the cash tag $ preceding any stock tickers so that those comments will be filtered by the “trade ideas” filter and also lead to a clickable hyperlink for more information on that ticker. We are a trading community, and so ease of locating trade ideas is emphasized in our chat rooms. You can learn more about our chat room filters here.

Finally, members are not to intentionally bypass the moderation and filters that are in place to enforce these rules.

  • All website links shared by students are sent to moderators for review before they can be shared in the chat room. Furthermore, certain words and phrases are automatically blocked and filtered out of the chat room. Intentionally bypassing the website link and text filters is a violation of chat room policy.
    Any questions about moderation policies or our Terms should be addressed to [email protected].

Notes Regarding Our Moderation Procedures

Conduct that is disruptive or disrespectful can result in messages being deleted or chatting ability being muted. Continued or extreme behavior will put your membership at risk. Our chat room moderators have full discretion to delete any posts that do not abide by the rules, or to mute accounts of members who violate them.

We understand that members rarely intend to violate the rules, and that having a message deleted by a moderator can be off-putting. We all make mistakes – this includes both members and moderators – and are simply doing our best to enforce the rules of our community and compliance program.

When a message is deleted or an account is muted, members will receive a message on our chat room platform with an explanation for the deletion or muting. Except in extreme cases, deletions will typically occur before a member is placed on a one-day mute. In more extreme cases, our moderators will escalate violations to our compliance team for review, and a compliance team member will communicate with the member regarding the violation and next steps. In the most extreme cases, violation of rules may result in immediate termination of a membership without refund.

If you have had a comment deleted, or have been muted, and you have questions about the reason for a mute or deletion, please contact us at [email protected]. We are open to feedback and happy to address questions or concerns regarding these policies.
