Ask HN: Hacker News for finance?

Second zerohedge.com and also tickerforum.org, and learn the lingo / slang / inside jokes if you want to participate, expect a fair amount of dark humour, it's how people cope.

I think you need to narrow your search parameters a little bit here. Just as there are thousands of sites about technology, so too are there thousands on which you can discuss finance. HN is unique in its potent mix of entrepreneurial minds and technical folks; what kind of analogue would you seek for finance? A particular niche? Or just 'real cool people'?
