Napstex is to Forex Traders what the CB is to Rednecks

I remember back when I was a kid, how excited I was to get my first CB radio. My handle was "Snake Eyes." I remember how much fun I had pretending like I was a girl (which isn't hard when you're a prepubescent boy) flirting with the truck drivers on the nearby interstate. And for some reason to me, that was a party. Way more fun than, I don't know, hanging out with actual friends or flirting with actual girls.

Now here I am, hardly the squeaky voiced little kid I used to be, and I almost never flirt with truckers anymore. But I still have this fascination with being able to communicate with a variety of people from all different places. And that is one of the things that motivated me to write Napstex. I wanted to be able to see what lots of different traders were doing at any given moment from all across the world. I have to admit, my primary purpose for creating Napstex was selfishness: I wanted to become a better trader.

Don't take it the wrong way, I wish you the best too. It's not like I want you to fail. I just don't care if you succeed as much as I care if I succeed. But in the same way that Napstex can make me succeed in the Forex market, it can also help you succeed. You can see what I'm doing, I can see what you're doing, we can both see what everybody else is doing. I'm telling you, this could be big. Like, Napster big.
