my system is doing well but no trades are being sent to my twitter, and i see they are still down at https://status.twitter.com.

i wonder when will they fix it? it's already been over a day an a half.

for the past few weeks, twitter have been really unreliable, and that's gonna hurt them for sure.

I wonder how many forex traders will it take to bring stocktwitts down?

Now that it's all automated here in Myfxbook, an automated system can have over 200 trades opened and closed in the same day, which is 400 tweets..

So if for example 1000 accounts sending tweets daily, and on average each account opens 5 trades per hour, it comes out as 10,000 tweets hourly..

I think it's a matter of months until we clog their systems..

I realized that as well today. They will tell you if you post to much and then eventually block you. But if there's hundreds of us they might block the API or something.

I've decided to just use the # in front of the pair. So it posts #eurusd, that way it makes it a keyword, so if anybody does a search for eurusd my calls comes up. That's good enough I think. I did that earlier and saw at least 4 fxbook chatters posting...
