    TeenStockTrader.com

    Hi, I was wondering what you guys think about a new website that I'm starting, teenstocktrader.com. I have a business partner who is a web designer and is currently designing the website, but for now I have a mini site up. It's a community for teens who invest and trade stocks. They can share their experiences, strategies, etc. It will be kind of a social networking site that will have a web portal where people can write articles and submit them and eventually become a TST Expert. I also have come out with t-shirts. Please let me know what you guys think and any suggestions or feedback you all might have. Thanks.

    I like the idea. However, it'll be interesting to see the strategy you adopt for this unique target audience.

    i did the virtual stock exchange when I was young. I'm not sure if you have looked at it or not but your site can run private contests their and have prizes to give away.

    I like the idea. The key is to target teens in all that you do. Really focus on providing value to this group in ways that are not currently being exploited well.

    This is a great idea. The site needs a bit of organizational work... but you are on the right track.

    Thanks, everyone has told me that it is a great idea, and the new site will be a lot better. The new forum should be up tonight, so if anyone wants to register, that would be great.

    Your Idea sounds good....but as veteran jmenq suggests, you need to be rock solid on your strategy.....

    I am a wholesaler cum retailer of Readymade garments based out of Bangalore supplying stock to South-India...let me know if you want something arranged from my end for your users in particular the Indian users.
