Introduction

At StockTwits, we believe the stock market can be a fun and profitable place. Whenever you bring together a group of highly talented and motivated people chasing profits and ask them to talk about what works for them, you're bound to hit upon some valuable ideas and unforgettable stories. Whether you trade once a year or every day, the learning never stops. And that's one of the key messages of The StockTwits Edge. It takes time, repetition, and strict discipline, but if you dedicate yourself to learning, you will discover the true power of money and your inner self.

StockTwits is an online “idea network,” a Facebook for finance, an American Idol or farm system for traders and investors, a virtual global trading floor. We strive to help people share and receive ideas, discover like-minded people, leverage a community of passionate people, build a publishing and research brand, and help people monetize their work. The community is made up of more than 100,000 people from all corners of the world who trade thousands of instruments. You can customize your StockTwits streams to get the ideas you want from the people you want and about the stocks that matter to you most. You can get them on the web site at http://stocktwits.com, or pushed to you on your phone or e-mail.
