That was my (very) failed attempt to speak like a young person. My mother is cringing; my boss (Dave Lemont) is ordering a book from Amazon to help me with business communication. And is “tweet” really a verb? Maybe I’m too old for this stuff but I digress. This week’s “How can I help?” post takes on the Twittosphere.

For those of you who don’t already know you can set up your Currensee account to automatically “tweet” your trades through your Twitter stream. From time to time members ask why their trades aren’t being posted on Twitter. Let’s see if I can help you solve this fairly simple issue:

First, have you linked your Twitter account to your Currensee account? To do this, please log into your Currensee account and click on your profile. Next, click on the Tweet My Trades link next to Twitter on your profile. Now enter your Twitter username/email address and password then click “Allow” on Twitter’s pop-up. You’ll be directed back to the Currensee platform. Where you’ll automatically begin to tweet your closed positions. If you’d like to tweet all positions (pending, opened, increases, decreases, closes, etc.) then click on the Edit link next to your Twitter username. This can be found on your Profile, and un-check the “Tweet Closed Positions Only” check box.

Once that’s completed we’ll start sending your trades to Twitter and from there Twitter will work some serious magic. Your millions of followers can see all the trades you’re making using the Currensee platform. Remember, this will only tweet your trades to your followers, if you want to follow the trades of your friends check out their Twitter username listed in their Currensee profile and start following them on Twitter (don’t forget to follow us too!).

In response to demand of traders we’ve just implemented connectivity between Currensee and Twitter allowing traders to automatically Tweet their positions. The way the service works is that once you link your Twitter account you can chose which one of your brokers accounts you’d like to Tweet and we are automatically Tweeting on your behalf whenever you open or close a position. Since Currensee is the only platform that is connected in real time to more than 50 brokers the moment you execute the order we would Tweet on your behalf in real time. For those who are running business via Twitter we’ve also added the ability to Tweet only when positions are closed and thus attract customers.

One great service that can be along side with Currensee’s functionality is StockTwits and since we see the great value for our traders delivering the transparency we strive to into StockTwits we’ve implemented our Tweets using the same format that will be picked by StockTwits allowing traders for the first time to really Tweet what they do in their live accounts.

Currensee members who link their Twitter account are also going to be awarded 5 Currensee Bucks.
