“The Impact of Social Media on Trading & Investing”
Thursday January 19th, 3:45-4:30pm in the Waldorf Room, Chicago Hilton & Towers.
If you are in Chicago and attending the Security Traders Association of Chicago Annual Mid-Winter Meeting this week, I have the pleasure of sitting on a panel to discuss Social Media and it’s impact on trading and investing.
The panel will be moderated by Tom Sosnoff (formerly of thinkorswim, now Tasty Trade). And on the dais with me you’ll find one of the hardest working men in the financial blogosphere – Greg Harmon, author of Dragonfly Capital; and industry experts Don Montanaro (Trade King), Tony Battista (Tasty Trade), and Kevin Callahan (AX Trading).
Should be a lively discussion. If you’re attending the event, I hope you’ll put us on your schedule. If you haven’t already made plans to attend the two-day event, you can find registration info here.
I promise to wear pants.
