Posts and sharing trades
Post to the feed, share a frozen copy of a trade or a Day, and like and comment on other traders' posts.
The feed
For you shows posts from across inkX; Following shows the people you follow.
Someone's profile card
On a computer, rest your pointer on someone's avatar or name — in the feed, comments, stories, follower lists, chats and DMs — and a card opens: their photo, name and @username, bio, followers and following, and the stats they've chosen to make public (only those — the same as their profile shows). Follow and View profile are on the card. A private account's card says Private account; someone you can't see shows Profile not available.
On a phone or tablet, tapping an avatar or name opens their profile, as before.
Your own profile: open the account menu (your avatar in the navigation bar; ⋯ on a phone) and click your name at the top. In inkX on a phone or tablet, the Profile tab shows your avatar.
Write a post
Type in "What's your trade today?". A post can have up to 5,000 characters and one of: up to 4 images, a live link (YouTube or Twitch), or a GIF. Posting publicly needs a public profile — see Join inkX. To post in a group, use that group's own composer.
Share a trade or a Day
From a trade's review or a Day page, click Share to community (or use the trade button in the composer). Pick where — My feed or one of your groups — and what to include:
- a trade: the chart, entry and exit, P&L, R, contracts and your notes, in dollars or percent (always percent while your amounts are masked), as the trade or as its P&L card;
- a Day: the plan, the review and screenshots.
Others see a frozen copy of what you pick — never the trade or Day itself. Editing the trade later doesn't change the post.
Sharing to a group? With Ink Pro, tick Ask for review and the group's admins see the post under Needs review.
