Which application you guys recommend?

Hello,
I think this is the best place to ask this. Any idea what chat application to use on my page? I already found rumbletalk but I am researching more options. It needs to be htmp5, able to post yt videos, post charts, and I want to manage design as well, please give me some advice!

Thank you so much!

Well I started researching on my own then. I made a lot of research in finding a chatroom for my Algo-Trading website. I used envolve for a while till they closed up, pitty. I tried IRC but I truly did not like the look and feel and the “mess” of text in there.
I had several points which are important to me.
1 – First I needed a chat that can be seen in mobile (all versions) so I narrowed down the search for html5 chat room that look good on both mobile and pc.
2 – I needed a custom design, I needed my background to be black or transparent. This was very hard to find (my site is dark).
3 – I do not like to install the chat in my server as this is high cpu and resource consumer. So I need a chat service.
4 – Lastly, I needed the ability to add youtube videos and upload files (technical analysis).
I have checked several chats and only 2 met my needs, RumbleTalk and Cbox.
I choose RumbleTalk finally as it can be integrated into my page and not only as toolbar.
