Two last posts

Sorry for the confusion guys, last two posts obviously should have been in trading log where they belong... I don't want to move them over to preserve calendar order of trading log.

Jul 27 2009

The day started well with wins on BCRX, DRYS longs and RIMM short. Then things got boring and narrow, we took small stops on AIG and AXP and finished slightly positive and bored. Such is summer.

Session Time: Mon Jul 27 00:00:00 2009

[09:05] {BillyD} GM all

[09:06] {Threei} fern, billy :)

[09:09] {JohnK} gm folks

[09:10] {Threei} John :)

[09:12] {Threei} okay guys

[09:12] {Threei} not much is happening which is not really surprizing,

[09:12] {ese} pres.......never thought i'd see you on this board.......good to have you aboard

[09:13] {Threei} Mondays are like this lately: action seems to be a weelend hangover

[09:13] {Threei} somewhat lost,

[09:13] {Threei} no clear direction,

[09:13] {Threei} hectic opening with no patterns,

[09:13] {Threei} then flat.

[09:14] {cosmo} .... and you want to go home...right?

[09:14] {nemo} yeah...sounds like a hangover

[09:14] {ese} how dare you describe my like on this board vad!!!!!!

[09:14] {Threei} Let's see if we get something more or less playable,

[09:14] {ese} life

[09:14] {texus} gm all

[09:14] {nemo} resource stocks up though

[09:14] {Threei} sorry ese... I thought I was describing mine

[09:15] {Threei} DRYS maybe a scalp candidate at the open

[09:16] {Threei} on daily 6.30 was forming as a trigger, but it gapped above that

[09:16] {Threei} ideally, pullback into .30 would be a perfect entry

[09:17] {Threei} if we don't get it, then hopefully it forms an opening range narrow enough tp structure break play

[09:17] {larisa} gm :)

[09:17] {Threei} Larisa :)

[09:17] {Threei} JASO, I don't know...

[09:17] {Threei} solars get some attention last days,

[09:18] {cosmo} they rise in the morning....

[09:18] {Threei} whether it's a new play in the sector or traders just go through the motions testing waters, hard to tell

[09:18] {Threei} hmmm cosmo...

[09:18] {Threei} I'll have to ponder that

[09:18] {Threei} see you in three months

[09:18] {cosmo} makes cents

[09:20] {Threei} Human Genome Sciences Inc Hearing Piper Jaffray making positive comments (timing uncertain)

[09:20] {Threei} - Piper suggests HGSI could fetch around $22/shr in a takeover scenario

[09:34] {Threei} any dive under .40 deserves an entry on a first sign of strength

[09:34] {nemo} mellowing with age ese?

[09:34] {Threei} with stop under .30

[09:34] {BillyD} HGSI may take the 15 today

[09:34] {Threei} if never loses .40, then .50 break becomes long trigger

[09:34] {ese} ya what can i say

[09:34] {Threei} HGSI 15 long trigger as we talking on Friday

[09:35] {Threei} DRYS tries to go for a break

[09:35] {magoo} on tv

[09:35] {Threei} Long Setup: DRYS .50 break

[09:35] {Threei} stop under .40

[09:40] {ese} L sqnm .93

[09:41] {Threei} I'd say, break is still valid

[09:41] {Threei} although aggressive entry seems to be preferrable

[09:41] {Threei} but it's a kind of personal call

[09:41] {fernp} took .42

[09:41] {Threei} yup, that seems to be the best approach

[09:42] {fernp} I am out. TY Vad

[09:49] {magoo} you thinking 11 today?

[09:51] {Threei} didn't make much sense to me to partial

[09:51] {Threei} my risk appetite was a bit too high maybe, lol

[09:52] {Threei} okay, now SQNM seems more likely to do a pullback dance

[09:52] {magoo} out BCRX .55..look to reload prob

[10:04] {Threei} BCRX is consolidating closer to high again, lol

[10:04] {Threei} hmm CAT

[10:05] {Threei} if we get sharp dive into 42, will be interesting

[10:09] {Threei} SQNM, now this level doesn't look attractive enough

[10:09] {Threei} want deeper pullback

[10:09] {Threei} as day progresses, tyhere is more wekness

[10:10] {Threei} CAT near 42

[10:10] {nemo} wonder if money going to move to the sidelines with the big auction tomorrow

[10:10] {Threei} but slid there slowly

[10:10] {Threei} no sharp drop

[10:10] {Threei} not sure about entry

[10:10] {nemo} rimm ended up dropping .70

[10:13] {Threei} GM Treasurer: hope to repay govt loans "much sooner" than the 2015 deadline

[10:14] {nemo} oops, fell over

[10:15] {ese} did it ever

[10:15] {nemo} still sell side strength on LII

[10:17] {nemo} RIMM bounce coincided with Qs

[10:19] {nemo} zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[10:21] {ese} lookin to go long sqnm again after the rinse out

[10:22] {Threei} volume dried up on it so much, can't get firm read on it

[10:22] {Threei} no pace

[10:26] {Threei} here is the name we haven't heard in a while:

[10:26] {Threei} VNDA Hearing renewed takeover chatter circulating (15.69, +0.53, 3.50%)

[10:28] {magoo} any read amzn or rimm boss?

[10:28] {nemo} just took this off Big Picture on new home sales: Sales of new one-family houses in June 2009 were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 384,000, according to estimates released jointly today by the U.S. Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. This is 11.0 percent (13.2%)* above the revised May rate of 346,000, but is 21.3 percent (11.4%) below the June 2008 estimate of 488,000.

[10:28] {Threei} RIMM... .35 break short

[10:29] {Threei} AMZN, could be a scalp long

[10:29] {Threei} aww

[10:29] {Threei} late

[10:29] {nemo} invalumidated

[10:29] {Threei} meant .90 break

[10:29] {Threei} no chasing

[10:30] {nemo} huh?

[10:30] {Threei} and not sure it's good again

[10:30] {_matt} parameters for rimm short please

[10:30] {Threei} it's invalidated, went over resistance

[10:30] {nemo} below .60?

[10:33] {Threei} RIMM is trying to reestablish

[10:33] {Threei} Short Setup: RIMM .35 break if stays under .50

[10:34] {Threei} invalidated again

[10:34] {ese} roll up the rimm to win

[10:34] {BillyD} tough to get RIMM to cooperate

[10:35] {nemo} not at 77.60 it wasn't?

[10:35] {Threei} ?

[10:36] {nemo} what ?

[10:36] {BillyD} u take it there nemo?

[10:36] {nemo} no, I asked at that level

[10:37] {Threei} I don't understand the question

[10:37] {Threei} RIMM's reestablished

[10:37] {ese} ok learning question....why .35 and not .60

[10:37] {ese} where it would hit resistaqnce

[10:37] {ese} too risky in terms of a break out long

[10:37] {Threei} RIMM 1:1

[10:38] {ese} nice one....who ever took it

[10:38] {BillyD} got it ty vad

[10:38] {Threei} ese... I outline the setup - level of aggressiveness on entry is your decision

[10:38] {Threei} enter on the trigger, or aggressively before it, or conservatively after break and retest...

[10:38] {Threei} can't make this decision for you, it's too, umm, personal

[10:39] {nemo} nice monday morning so far Vad

[10:39] {Threei} 1:2 RIMM

[10:39] {Threei} me out

[10:39] {nemo} at the end of July no less

[10:39] {Threei} yeah, not a small feat, lol

[10:40] {Threei} can I go home?

[10:40] {nemo} You are home

[10:40] {ese} sorry missed vads vads invalidated statement

[10:40] {Threei} invalidated or reestabilshed?

[10:40] {Threei} I made both twice, lol

[10:41] {ese} i get ya vad.......i don't short much so am very curious.....

[10:44] {fernp} first trade for me on RIMM since long time ago. shorted from .39 to .04 ty very much Vad

[10:44] {magoo} any read BCRX vader?

[10:44] {Threei} :)

[10:45] {Threei} yes mags... I can read "you idiot, you missed entry on pullback near 10" written on it

[10:45] {Threei} was easy scalp with .10 trigger...

[10:46] {BillyD} Vad, is there a way to assign sound to your official alerts in Mirc?

[10:46] {Threei} I believe so

[10:46] {nemo} not to the alerts, but to the "floor" so you'll get alerted to all Vad's comments....even the inane ones

[10:46] {Threei} but it needs to be done on your side

[10:46] {BillyD} right

[10:47] {Threei} why, you can set an alert for "long setup" and "short setup"

[10:47] {larisa} you can get sound to "setup" word, it is in every alert

[10:47] {larisa} lol

[10:47] {BillyD} how Larisa?

[10:48] {larisa} right click on vads nick, ifo, highlight

[10:48] {larisa} info

[10:48] {nemo} some setups are informal though

[10:48] {Threei} better yet: right click on my nick - Control - Ignore

[10:49] {Threei} nemo... Billy asked for "official" alerts

[10:49] {Threei} okay guys, so far so good - no stops, and things worked out nicely,

[10:49] {nemo} I'm looking for the word notification myself

[10:49] {Threei} what we have here is slow erosion of activity,

[10:50] {Threei} much like most days during this "summer rally"

[10:50] {nemo} "A failure to communicate."

[10:50] {BillyD} thx Larisa :)

[10:50] {Threei} so I am hesitant to play breaks

[10:50] {larisa} yw

[10:50] {Threei} like BCRX right now,

[10:50] {Threei} forms breakout

[10:50] {Threei} but IMO, more likely to be a trap

[10:51] {Threei} I am skipping it,

[10:51] {Threei} instead looking for pullbacks or range plays to scalp

[10:51] {BillyD} Vad, when you have a minute, can you do an official test setup alert....want to see if works

[10:51] {Threei} if some break works, so be it, I'll miss it

[10:51] {Threei} Long Setup: TEST at whatever price it is

[10:52] {Threei} works?

[10:52] {fernp} works fine. TY larisa

[10:52] {magoo} no quotes TEST

[10:52] {BillyD} not here

[10:53] {BillyD} do I have to put an & in front of threei when adding to highlite

[10:53] {Threei} do you have sound enabled?

[10:53] {BillyD} fern can you help me out

[10:53] {larisa} do not forget to check "enable highlight" on same screen :)

[10:54] {BillyD} I do now Vad...can you please try again

[10:54] {Threei} Short Setup: TEST for magoo to ignore

[10:55] {BillyD} perfect TY

[10:55] {Threei} :)

[10:55] {fernp} Works fine. Billy. just "enable highlight" and select a sound for "Setup" word

[10:55] {fernp} ok

[10:55] {BillyD} hmmm...just went off for you as well fern for the word "setup

[10:56] {BillyD} figured it out

[10:58] {BillyD} HIG strong

[11:01] {Threei} well... 16 break is kind of obvious setup

[12:08] {nemo} seems reasonable

[12:08] {Threei} strucrure is right

[12:08] {nemo} not that I would consider my opinion valid

[12:09] {Threei} time of the day is more prone for random outcomes

[12:52] {BillyD} fern, please see dcc

[12:52] {Threei} not really... no slightest signs of long, and short on 23 breakdown, while possibe, will offer just a small scalp most likelty

[13:36] {Threei} can't tell in advance without seeingh how it gets there

[13:36] {Threei} the point is,

[13:36] {Threei} if it drops fast into levels you are interested in it's one thing,

[13:36] {Threei} and if it slides slowly into them, it's another

[13:37] {Threei} equally important is the price where it tops out before dropping there

[13:39] {_matt} very educational, thanks

[13:40] {Threei} sure

[13:41] {jfjf64} vad aig 13 break ya lk

[13:50] {Threei} remember last week I said, DRYS is not dropping anymore and even trying daily range highs while Baltic Dry index drops every day

[13:59] {Threei} do I have any other choice now than "no"? we have to hedge each other, right?

[13:59] {ese} ya.....I thought that was prety funny

[13:59] {jfjf64} vad here in lot about flash trading you know anythin hurt us or help us??

[14:00] {magoo} vad, how i add a new chart too laser?

[14:01] {Threei} jf... it will hurt you badly if you read and think a lot about it

[14:01] {nemo} view=}chart

[14:02] {magoo} ty, now how i get a stock symbol in it?

[14:03] {larisa} magoo was trading without charts ?

[14:03] {nemo} do you want to use it to trade Mags, or use it with existing windows

[14:03] {Threei} thought so

[14:03] {magoo} just as another stock to follow

[14:03] {magoo} not connected to lev 2

[14:04] {nemo} so, you want to follow one stock all the time, or be able to change stocks?

[14:04] {Threei} to put a stock symbol in it you need to do this very complicated manipulation, mags:

[14:04] {Threei} click on it,

[14:04] {Threei} then gently hit the key wioth first letter of your stock symbol on it,

[14:04] {Threei} then hit second key with second letter of symbol,

[14:05] {BillyD} rflol

[14:05] {Threei} and repeat it until whole symbol is typed in

[14:05] {Threei} then hit this big one which says Enter

[14:05] {Threei} close your eyes

[14:05] {Threei} and when you open them again, voila

[14:05] {magoo} how do i know which stock symbol to enter??

[14:06] {BillyD} go ahead Vad

[14:06] {Threei} for that you need to bring chicken entrails to trading gods altar

[14:06] {Threei} and say kreks peks phecks three times

[14:06] {Threei} in the miodnight, on the crossroad

[14:06] {Threei} spit three times over lweft shoulder

[14:07] {Threei} and go back home.

[14:07] {nemo} at full moon...the tough part will be finding a virgin

[14:07] {Threei} In the morning, the symbol will be revealed to you

[11:21] {Threei} and change it

[11:22] {Threei} one case makes the logic invalid not

[11:22] {Threei} but discipline to follow the logic of the moment is what makes or breaks the trader
