TBanque Community Guidelines

How people use TBanque

TBanque is an online trading platform. It is home to millions of users around the world, who use it to manage their finances and carry out trades. However, TBanque is also a social network, on which users can exchange thoughts, ideas, strategies and more. Like many other social networks, TBanque is often a platform for debate, which, for the most part, is carried out calmly and politely.

The following guidelines will help you understand what type of sharing is acceptable on TBanque, and what type of content may be flagged, removed or result in restricted access.

For clients of TBanque AUS Capital Limited, please read and acknowledge the Social Network Disclosure and Warning – TBanque AUS Capital Pty Ltd around postings on the TBanque social network, set in accordance with ASIC Regulatory Guide 162 for Internet Discussion Sites, and applies is in addition to the TBanque Community Guidelines above.

Why we have community guidelines

TBanque is first and foremost a community of financial enthusiasts. Spanning dozens of countries around the world and supporting more than 20 languages, the TBanque community is truly diverse. Naturally, some users misuse the social aspects of the platform on occasion. Some do it out of malicious intent, but more often than not, they do so because they are not aware that the community has guidelines. For this reason, we have created this detailed guide, to enable TBanque users to maintain a healthy and beneficial community.

The goal of the guidelines

  • Safety: We aspire to ensure the safety and well-being of all TBanque users. Following these guidelines will ensure that.
  • Dignity: TBanque is a place for people, and all people deserve to maintain their dignity. Following the guidelines will enable us to make sure the dignity of our users is not harmed.

Please note that the English version of the Community Standards reflects the most up-to-date set of the policies and should be used as the master document.

TBanque users should never act in a violent manner, or encourage violent behaviour, directly or indirectly. This includes, but is not limited to: the use of expletives, profanity, trolling, abuse, fraud or solicitation. 

Trolling

TBanque users should never intentionally incite conflict, generate provocation or purposely upset other users. All discussions should remain polite and to the point. 

Deception and impersonation

Please note that users are responsible for any third-party advertising in any content they share. For example, you may not post, share, or display any video content on our platform that includes third-party advertising, such as pre-roll video ads or sponsorship graphics, without our prior consent.

What you are very welcome to do:

Be constructive

We are home to many traders of different age groups, cultures, lifestyles and of varying opinions, but we all share a mutual interest in trading the markets. Please be polite and respectful of others’ ideas, comments or trading activity even if these do not correspond to your own opinions. You are encouraged to share your thoughts and feedback, but please keep them respectful and don’t harass anyone.

Encourage a discussion

We encourage you to discuss and challenge ideas, strategies and market events as they happen.

Keep it relevant

Ask questions if you are uncertain of something, but keep discussions on track and ensure you are putting information in the right place. Please do not disrupt others’ conversations or use the market feeds for personal or irrelevant posts. This includes tagging market feeds in your trade stories, using them to promote your own results (see Spamming) or asking general questions on discussions on other subjects.

Don’t be shy if you are just starting out

Ask questions and enquire about events if you are not sure what they mean or which expected outcome everyone is forecasting and why.
