[12:35] {bruce} poor dino
[12:35] {GeoArb} totally diff trading styles
[12:35] {dino} now you understand why i complain when the beer is gone
[12:35] {dino} y
[12:35] {dino} \you only compete w/yourself in this game
[12:36] {bruce} drat - dumped rimm way too early
[12:36] {dino} uthr stop to .81
[12:37] {dino} out .75 slip, +.65
[12:38] {dino} brb
[12:39] {GeoArb} i need to learn to hold
[12:39] {GeoArb} i was in and ou of rimm for 15 cents
[12:39] {Threei} until they starte reversing and hitting your stops after 1:1, then you say "I need to lear to book profits"
[12:40] {GeoArb} eheheh
[12:43] {bruce} lvs spking dino
[12:45] {dino} hmmm
[12:45] {bruce} ffiv spike
[12:47] {bruce} couldsn'tsee where to short ls - up and down was too quick
[12:47] {bruce} lvs
[12:52] {dino} ffiv
[12:52] {dino} \either break of .50 or 20.15ish
[12:53] {dino} mf again
[12:53] {dino} woof
[12:53] {dino} too fast
[12:54] {bruce} dk
[12:54] {magoo} .
[12:54] {magoo} ..
[12:54] {magoo} ...
[12:54] {bruce} mtrx
[12:55] {bruce} sheesh - lotsof spikes - both ways
[12:57] {Threei} MF actually starts looking like long with stop under 12.50
[12:58] {Threei} with half out closer to 13 if works
[12:58] {magoo} what entry u get?
[12:58] {Threei} .68
[12:59] {Threei} no worky
[13:02] {judijim} do most in chat rm use inteliscan?
[13:03] {GeoArb} i have it but still learning how to use it
[13:03] {GeoArb} one day this bird will try to fly without vad;s calls :)
[13:04] {dino} lol
[13:04] {Threei} everyone wants to render me useless... sigh
[13:04] {Threei} wait... that's my hope for retirement
[13:04] {Threei} strike that sigh
[13:06] {judijim} noone uses esignal? maybe consider intelliscan down the road.
[13:06] {GeoArb} MF... so much for looking at previous pivot for support
[13:06] {Threei} what's wrong with it?
[13:06] {bruce} wfr short dino?
[13:07] {dino} rick stop to .50
[13:07] {dino} .60 i mean
[13:07] {GeoArb} i was looking at 12.4
[13:07] {GeoArb} it went thru it
[13:07] {dino} wfr, hmmm, heck of a comeback
[13:07] {Threei} support does not mean it will hold
[13:08] {Threei} support is for stop placement
[13:08] {Threei} same with resistance
[13:08] {GeoArb} ok
[13:08] {Threei} by themselves they are not very indicative
[13:08] {Threei} what is indicative is what they do when they hit support or resistance
[13:08] {GeoArb} ok
[13:09] {dino} out rick .61, +.49
[13:10] {dino} wfr nice spot, missed it
[13:11] {bruce} not in - not sure of entry for it
[13:11] {dino} no it ramps, maybe too hard
[13:11] {bruce} nihd - if can't breaqk 38.15 good short potential imo
[13:12] {bruce} just did - invalid for now
[13:13] {dino} was watchoing it at lunch
[13:13] {bruce} k
[13:13] {bruce} joyg spiking
[13:13] {dino} rick, ugh
[13:17] {dino} mf s sm risky .60
[13:17] {Threei} FSLR CEO: HOLDING MULTIPLE DISCUSSIONS REGARDING PRODUCTS WITH US UTILITIES
[13:17] {dino} nihd s .05 sm
[13:18] {Threei} MF is holding too well still
[13:18] {bruce} s ffiv .57 w 10 c stop
[13:19] {dino} hold this
[13:19] {Threei} shakes out but returns
[13:19] {dino} jesse, never know 'til you bet
[13:22] {dino} missed mtrx by .08
[13:23] {Threei} if you want to try MF again, .65 long if holding above .50
[13:24] {dino} my bstop mf is hod
[13:24] {dino} same w/nihd anyone took
[13:26] {bruce} still waiting on nihd dino
[13:28] {dino} smarter than i
[13:29] {bruce} you're luckier dino - trade you
[13:30] {dino} rbcn l .60, stop .23
[13:31] {dino} truthfully bruce, i think you're stops are too tight, otherwise you are a great capitulation trader
[13:33] {bruce} s mtrx .84 stop 20c
[13:34] {bruce} thanx dino
[13:34] {bruce} learniung - I think
[13:34] {dino} i'm waiting at .18, most likely not fill
[13:35] {dino} you are learning, , i just think in this market you need small size wider stops. otherwise rinse city
[13:35] {dino} magoo had same problem for awhile, as did i last june
[13:36] {GeoArb} back to flat for today
[13:36] {bruce} k- definitely get ots of that
[13:36] {GeoArb} grrr MF
[13:37] {dino} especially playing capits/euphorics, great big moves on them
[13:37] {dino} limit your loss to $250, size down widen stops, imho
[13:40] {markweb} 250 per trade?
[13:40] {GeoArb} thats 250 per play?
[13:40] {markweb} lol
[13:40] {GeoArb} whats daily stop max? something like jim's? :)
[13:40] {dino} yes max $250/trade loss
[13:40] {dino} if scalping, then tighter
[13:41] {dino} 2x's
[13:41] {dino} daily goal
[13:41] {dino} daily max stop
[13:41] {GeoArb} ok
[13:41] {dptl} so if you have 4 loosers in the row you stop for the day?
[13:42] {GeoArb} his goal is 700 so 6 loosers in row
[13:42] {dino} right
[13:42] {GeoArb} how many days like that have you had? :D
[13:42] {dino} very rare to have 6 l in row , but it can happen, yesterday had 3 l's out of gate, average loss was 185
[13:43] {dino} if something cchanges (looks wrong,) i tighten
[13:43] {dino} once itm i tighten, etc
[13:44] {dino} hate to give back profits, especially in this type market
[13:45] {GeoArb} curious what time zone dino
[13:46] {dino} eastern standard, pennsylvania
[13:46] {bruce} twilight geo

[13:50] {GeoArb} ok
[13:51] {GeoArb} i guess i am running a decade behind

[13:55] {bruce} mtrx stopped - 24c
[13:56] {dino} thing is strong, cx my s order
[13:57] {dino} would've thought hod stop on it bruce
[13:57] {dino} watching to see what happens
[13:58] {dino} somebody slap nihd down
[13:59] {dino} 38 wall
[13:59] {bruce} strong resistance at 19 even dino - shouldn't have done the trade -
[14:00] {dino} just wondering, hod +.01 usually
[14:00] {dino} no worries, lets find another
[14:01] {bruce} prefer to set stop betwen a double top or bottome - smaller stop than if h or low gets taken out aggressively
[14:01] {dino} manually or auto/hard?
[14:02] {bruce} thats what I did there - - lower high at 19
[14:02] {bruce} auto in thiscase
[14:03] {dino} eye on uthr again, around .00 imo l
[14:03] {bruce} should have awaited fot stock to get close to 19 instead of taking close to breakdown level
[14:03] {magoo} [14:01] {dino} manually or auto/hard?
[14:03] {magoo} pervert
[14:04] {dino} mf bstop to .41 stuck
[14:04] {dino} cov mf,
[14:04] {dino} +.19
[14:06] {dino} the problem mtrx, is for our style chart was too gradual, needed that last big spike
[14:09] {bruce} k
[14:09] {bruce} will keep in mind - thought good chance itwas done
[14:10] {dino} good stop tho, look at it
[14:10] {bruce} good point though - no spike showingt yet in it
[14:12] {bruce} only 10 c above where I got stopped - but looksto be going north now
[14:16] {dino} uthr l .40 sm, stopm .09
[14:22] {magoo} rally to bell..or sell from hell?? {still a poet}

[12:57] {Threei} MF actually starts looking like long with stop under 12.50
[12:58] {Threei} with half out closer to 13 if works
[12:58] {magoo} what entry u get?
[12:58] {Threei} .68
[12:59] {Threei} no worky
[13:02] {judijim} do most in chat rm use inteliscan?
[13:03] {GeoArb} i have it but still learning how to use it
[13:03] {GeoArb} one day this bird will try to fly without vad;s calls :)
[13:04] {dino} lol
[13:04] {Threei} everyone wants to render me useless... sigh
[13:04] {Threei} wait... that's my hope for retirement
[13:04] {Threei} strike that sigh
[13:06] {judijim} noone uses esignal? maybe consider intelliscan down the road.
[13:06] {GeoArb} MF... so much for looking at previous pivot for support
[13:06] {Threei} what's wrong with it?
[13:06] {bruce} wfr short dino?
[13:07] {dino} rick stop to .50
[13:07] {dino} .60 i mean
[13:07] {GeoArb} i was looking at 12.4
[13:07] {GeoArb} it went thru it
[13:07] {dino} wfr, hmmm, heck of a comeback
[13:07] {Threei} support does not mean it will hold
[13:08] {Threei} support is for stop placement
[13:08] {Threei} same with resistance
[13:08] {GeoArb} ok
[13:08] {Threei} by themselves they are not very indicative
[13:08] {Threei} what is indicative is what they do when they hit support or resistance
[13:08] {GeoArb} ok
[13:09] {dino} out rick .61, +.49
[13:10] {dino} wfr nice spot, missed it
[13:11] {bruce} not in - not sure of entry for it

[13:37] {dino} limit your loss to $250, size down widen stops, imho
[13:40] {markweb} 250 per trade?
[13:40] {GeoArb} thats 250 per play?
[13:40] {markweb} lol
[13:40] {GeoArb} whats daily stop max? something like jim's? :)
[13:40] {dino} yes max $250/trade loss
[13:40] {dino} if scalping, then tighter
[13:41] {dino} 2x's
[13:41] {dino} daily goal
[13:41] {dino} daily max stop
[13:41] {GeoArb} ok
[13:41] {dptl} so if you have 4 loosers in the row you stop for the day?
[13:42] {GeoArb} his goal is 700 so 6 loosers in row
[13:42] {dino} right
[13:42] {GeoArb} how many days like that have you had? :D
[13:42] {dino} very rare to have 6 l in row , but it can happen, yesterday had 3 l's out of gate, average loss was 185
[13:43] {dino} if something cchanges (looks wrong,) i tighten
[13:43] {dino} once itm i tighten, etc
[13:44] {dino} hate to give back profits, especially in this type market

[13:55] {bruce} mtrx stopped - 24c
[13:56] {dino} thing is strong, cx my s order
[13:57] {dino} would've thought hod stop on it bruce
[13:57] {dino} watching to see what happens
[13:58] {dino} somebody slap nihd down
[13:59] {dino} 38 wall
[13:59] {bruce} strong resistance at 19 even dino - shouldn't have done the trade -
[14:00] {dino} just wondering, hod +.01 usually
[14:00] {dino} no worries, lets find another
[14:01] {bruce} prefer to set stop betwen a double top or bottome - smaller stop than if h or low gets taken out aggressively
[14:01] {dino} manually or auto/hard?
[14:02] {bruce} thats what I did there - - lower high at 19
[14:02] {bruce} auto in thiscase
[14:03] {dino} eye on uthr again, around .00 imo l
[14:03] {bruce} should have awaited fot stock to get close to 19 instead of taking close to breakdown level
[14:03] {magoo} [14:01] {dino} manually or auto/hard?
[14:03] {magoo} pervert
[14:04] {dino} mf bstop to .41 stuck
[14:04] {dino} cov mf,
[14:04] {dino} +.19
[14:06] {dino} the problem mtrx, is for our style chart was too gradual, needed that last big spike
[14:09] {bruce} k
[14:09] {bruce} will keep in mind - thought good chance itwas done
[14:10] {dino} good stop tho, look at it
[14:10] {bruce} good point though - no spike showingt yet in it
[14:12] {bruce} only 10 c above where I got stopped - but looksto be going north now
[14:16] {dino} uthr l .40 sm, stopm .09
[14:22] {magoo} rally to bell..or sell from hell?? {still a poet}
