Trading is a solitary endeavour
Without members posting graphical information about their actual trades or trading results it's hard to benchmark your own trading performance. We tend to trade in our own little bubble & at times (if you are like me) wonder if my trading results mirror the trading results of others. Basically, comparing my equity curve to others allows me to gauge if my results are in the normal range (if there is such a thing).

Posting equity curves
By sharing information, it allows a small glimpse of how others handle trading by displaying their actual results. Admittedly the trading results will vary but that's not the point. Looking at equity curves is an affirmation (a process) if your personal trading is within the ballpark of others.
