Hi everyone! My name is Evgenii. I’m from Ukraine and I trade prop firm accounts. I’m creating a trading community in London for people who are interested in Forex trading, prop firms, technical analysis, and improving their skills as traders. The main idea of this community is to bring together people who want to learn, share experience, analyse the market, discuss trading strategies, and find practical ways to pass prop firm challenges and improve trading performance. This community is for people interested in: Forex trading; prop firms and funded account challenges; technical analysis; market structure, liquidity, support and resistance; risk management and position sizing; trading psychology and discipline; backtesting and journaling; sharing real trading experience; finding better ways to pass challenges; improving consistency and trading results. The first meeting will be mainly for introductions and sharing experience. We will get to know each other, talk about our trading backgrounds, discuss what markets we trade, what challenges we face, and what goals we have as traders. If more than 10 people RSVP for the event, I will choose and confirm a suitable meeting place in London. The exact location will be announced before the meetup. This is not a signal group and not a place for financial advice. The purpose of this community is education, networking, support, and practical discussion between people who are serious about trading. You don’t need to be a professional trader to join. Beginners, developing traders, prop firm traders, and anyone interested in Forex and technical analysis are welcome. Event plan 15:00 – 15:15 — Arrival and introductions 15:15 – 15:45 — Everyone shares their trading background and goals 15:45 – 16:15 — Discussion: Forex, prop firms, and funded challenges 16:15 – 16:45 — Sharing experience, mistakes, and lessons learned 16:45 – 17:30 — Open networking and contact exchange Location London — exact location to be confirmed.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

Grab a drink or some food and get to know each other. This is our first event and we can take it slow. I’d love to meet everyone and hear if there’s anything you like to get out of the group. Looking forward to meeting you all!

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. **SCHEDULE:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
