The idea of a chat site, was to make use of intra day developments, without adding much to the irrelavant data/mails in group members mail box.Because, between the time when a signal is generated and a move takes place is usually within 2-5 minutes. Also there are a lot of one liners which get spoken. The chat site is for persons who are day traders. All long calls gets posted here and not in chat site.
In my opinion the chat site would be fully utilised when all participants contribute meanigfully in some way.
Hope this clears the concept.

The IIP, growth rate numbers had printed much hotter than individual company industry news and the market moved sharply higher taking Sensex from near 16,000 to 17,000 levels in 3 trading sessions.

Markets started taking cues from global markets in its movement on daily basis, which started experiencing bad news after 11-month rally. Also supported by the history of Sensex, markets always experienced pre-budget rallies and went down post-budget.
> > Though technically, charts shows a clear bounce in the immediate term, but decision to go ahead was sting by analysts short-term bearish call on the media. Some analysts stated that price had hit technical resistance and was unlikely to go much higher. I had already taken out a quick 10 stocks out to trade. In the first few minutes of budgetary session, there started some action in all of stocks, and many started to take fresh positions on my picks. I took the opposite point of view believing that Sensex could rally more as d-day came nearer. In the end I turned out to be right as markets rallied for 1000 points in 3-sessions and ironically enough retracing almost all fall in the last one month.

Certainly news well anticipated will have minimal impact on price, as market will often adjust ahead of time to the data. However, when the news is unexpected it tends to have a meaningful impact on price action that does not get captured in the first five minutes of trade.
