Join inkX and set up your profile
Pick a username, accept the guidelines, and choose exactly what your public profile shows — it's private until you say otherwise.
inkX is Ink's community: a feed, groups, chats and stories with other traders. It's separate from your journal — nothing you log is shared unless you choose to share it.
Join
Open inkX in the navigation bar. The first time:
- Pick a username — 3–20 characters: letters, numbers and underscores. You can change it once every 30 days, and a name you give up can't be taken by anyone for 90 days.
- Read the Community guidelines, confirm you're 18 or older, and click Enter the community.
Edit your profile
Open your profile (account menu → click your name at the top) and click Edit profile. One window opens over the page:
- Picture — click it to upload a new one; Remove takes it off.
- Name — up to 40 characters.
- Username — checked as you type. You can change it once every 30 days.
- Bio — up to 280 characters.
Click Save: your profile updates right away. Edit profile → at the top of Settings → Community opens the same window. Not in inkX yet? It opens there too, without the bio.
Your profile is private until you make it public
Who sees what is set in Settings → Community — "Private by default — you choose what other traders see."
- Public profile — off to start. While it's off, others see "This account is private." You need a public profile to post on your profile and in the main feed.
- What your profile shows — each stat is off until you turn it on: Win rate, Avg RR (winners), Planning streak, Best days and Imported badge (shows that your trades come from broker files).
- Accounts that count — which accounts those stats are worked out from.
- Money — show results as percentages (the default) or dollars.
- Who can message you — Everyone (the default) or People I follow.
Refresh stats updates the numbers on your profile. Your profile has two tabs: Posts and Stats.
