[13:33] {Threei} guys, while we are waiting for Big Ben to tell us where the happiness is
[13:33] {Threei} http://www.realitytrader.com/blog/2008/04/traders-job.html
[13:42] {Threei} full room of sleeping beauties...
[13:42] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[13:50] * Chaeron slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[13:51] {Threei} CSIQ unusually strong
[13:51] {Threei} not sure what gives... FSLR retreated, market too
[13:51] {Threei} usually this thing follows
[13:57] {dino} ok., dji will go to flat or slight neg., then bounce to 90, then back down,close neg.
[13:58] {patience} great post vad, just read it after finishing my daughter's income tax
[13:58] {Threei} thank you
[13:58] {patience} amount of paperwork for revenue canada is quite the reality check
[13:59] {Threei} meaning, trees be damned?
[14:00] {patience} paper for her first income tax, electronic starting next year
[14:08] {Threei} that's going to be one crazy show after Fed announcement
[14:10] {dino} hod
[14:10] {Threei} 5 min
[14:12] {Threei} playing "what I would do if I were Fed"... I'd do no cut, expressing confidence in economy, spiking USD and tanking oil
[14:12] {Threei} first knee jerk reaction would be down, then rally
[14:15] {dino} thats what i want, no change
[14:15] {Threei} me too
[14:15] {Threei} 1/4 cut
[14:15] {dino} 1/4
[14:17] {Threei} oh good... market moves in two directions at the same time
[14:17] {Threei} - Economic activity remains weak
[14:17] {Threei} - Vote was 8-2 for cut (Fisher, Plosser dissented, preferred no change in rates)
[14:17] {Threei} - Uncertainty on inflation outlook remains high, labor markets have softended, financial markets under considerable stress
[14:17] {Threei} - Notes the substantial easing of monetary policy to date should help promote moderate growth over time
[14:17] {Threei} - Inflation seen moderating but will monitor carefully
[14:19] {dino} cme 3 buck spread
[14:20] {dino} ntrs s[pike
[14:20] {dino} nah
[14:20] {Threei} - Says readings on core inflation somewhat improved, but energy, commodity prices up, some inflation expectations have risen
[14:20] {Threei} - Board vote to cut discount rate was unanimous
[14:20] {Threei} FOMC DROPS REFERENCE TO DOWNSIDE GROWTH
[14:21] {Threei} NQ chart is something
[14:22] {Threei} COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CURRENT AND MARCH FOMC STATEMENTS: FOMC DROPS REFERENCE TO DOWNSIDE RISKS TO GROWTH
- this change in the balance of risks statement was one of the anticipated signals that the Fed is now on hold. They also added that the 'substantial' easing to dated should promote growth, again signaling that they are ready to let the cuts that are now in place to work through the economy.
[14:22] {Threei} - the rest of the statement is largely unchanged: the FOMC reiterated it will 'act as needed' to promote it
[14:23] {dino} dbtk s .58 sm, stop .81
[14:24] {Threei} SIRI AND XMSR EXTEND MERGER AGREEMENT- agreed not to exercise their rights to terminate the Merger Agreement prior to May 15, 2008. SIRIUS and XM also announced that they have agreed to further extend the merger agreement, as necessary, for rolling two week periods unless either side notifies the other of its intention not to extend.
[14:29] {dino} ok i'll say it... that's the most boring fed reaction in years
[14:30] {dino} oh mannnnnnnnnnnn, swiper. i'm glad i have a tee time in 90 minutes
[14:42] {Threei} I have to agree, this is quite unusual reaction
[14:42] {Threei} sharp spikes in both directions is normal,
[14:43] {Threei} but staying locked in relatively narrow range for so long after that is not
[14:47] {Threei} AAPL seems to be the best follower
[14:47] {Threei} when direction finally resolves, I'd use it
[14:50] {bruce} economy is stalled vad
[14:50] {bruce} without you to spend your massive nigerian wealth we're all doomed
[14:50] {bruce} recession
[14:50] {bruce} depression
[14:51] {Threei} hmmm
[14:51] {Threei} see, here is the problem
[14:51] {Threei} I spent it, even before I obtained it
[14:52] {dino} back in 15
[14:54] {Threei} watching AAPL for bounce scalp

[15:05] {Threei} feels like there is some development we don't know about yet
[15:06] {Roman} 21 RIMM dumping
[15:06] {Threei} what isn't? :)
[15:08] {bruce} indeed
[15:09] {Threei} could it be this:

Apr 29 2008

Session Time: Tue Apr 29 00:00:00 2008



[08:21] {Threei} SDTH
[08:21] {Threei} ADDS THREE NEW CUSTOMERS, UPDATES INTERNATIONAL MARKET EXPANSION
- Announced it has successfully added three international customers in the first quarter of 2008, and is in active discussions with more than 10 potential international customers.
[08:43] {hawkfan4} good morning
[08:43] {Threei} Good morning
[08:50] {dptl} good morning all
[08:50] {Threei} dp :)
[08:51] {Onix} Good morning all you hard-working people!
[08:51] {Threei} onix :)
[08:51] {Threei} that's flattering for us, very lazy types
[08:52] {hawkfan4} great, now i feel like i have to get out of my pj's :)
[08:52] {Threei} oh no
[08:52] {Onix} oh no, this scalping/trading business is very "hard" work ... well, difficult is the beter word I suppose
[08:52] {dino} gm all
[08:52] {Threei} that could start dangerous trend
[08:52] {Threei} dino :)
[08:53] {Threei} it's not really, Onix
[08:53] {Threei} or, I better put it this way
[08:53] {Threei} it is what you chose it to be
[08:54] {Threei} interestingly enough most sucessful are those who chose it to be fun
[08:54] {Onix} whaw ... that seems a long way off for me
[08:55] {Threei} follow the process, you'll get there
[08:55] {Onix} but I can see your point .. it could certainly be a lot of fun once you know what you're doing
[08:55] {Threei} yes, and the best part is:
[08:55] {Threei} it's not a rocket science
[08:56] {Threei} if there are obstacles on this path, those are barricades you erect within yourself
[08:56] {Threei} pure technicals aspects of trading ar fairly simple
[08:57] {Threei} unless you elect to mire yourself down in zillion of indicators and studies
[08:57] {Onix} have not read you latest part of the psychology on the blog, but I believe you 100%
[08:57] {Threei} as you can imagine, during my time in markets I've seen many failed traders,
[08:58] {Threei} so let me tell you this:
[08:58] {Threei} none of them failed because they couldn't get down technical aspects of trading
[08:58] {magoo} morning
[08:58] {Threei} literally, NONE
[08:58] {Threei} mags :)
[08:59] {Onix} so, reading the setups and the entering & exiting are not the worst of it?
[08:59] {Threei} some, not too may, failed because their personality was absolutely adverse to trading environment
[09:00] {Threei} most did because they never recognized where the major culprit is, or refused to do anything about it, or were too rigid to allow themselves to change
[09:00] {Threei} fact is:
[09:01] {Threei} your trading is reflection of who you are, because trading is just a part of life in general, and not a some kind of stand-alone application
[09:01] {magoo} so what was major culprit?
[09:02] {Threei} just like success in sports, in business, in relationships, and whatnot
[09:02] {Threei} requires interal changes in your mindset
[09:02] {Threei} so does success in trading
[09:02] {Threei} setups, entries, exits is secondary
[09:02] {Threei} and relatively simple part
[09:02] {Onix} so if you are a nervous, indecisive person, you will have a hard time in this environment?
[09:02] {Threei} not saying it's unnecessary
[09:03] {Threei} just saying it's not too complicated
[09:03] {Threei} ummm
[09:03] {Threei} you are oversimplifying it
[09:03] {Threei} it's all about how you apply it
[09:04] {Threei} nervous person can translate in careful trader
[09:04] {magoo} put up the blog link vad and oill go read it
[09:04] {Onix} OK I'll buy that one
[09:04] {Onix} thanks Vad
[09:04] {Threei} it's right on the homepage magoo
[09:05] {magoo} what is the major culprit?
[09:05] * Threei slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[09:05] {magoo} gonna make me go to home page??{lazy magioo}
[09:05] {fernp} gm all
[09:05] {Threei} fernp :)
[09:06] {GeoArb} gm
[09:07] {Threei} geo :)
[09:08] {esemde} good morning....
[09:09] {Threei} ese :)
[09:09] {esemde} had to reinstallreality trader program again this morning
[09:09] {esemde} bizarre
[09:10] {Threei} does whole program disappear or just a shortcut?
[09:10] {esemde} I think the program
[09:10] {esemde} because I have to reinstall
[09:11] {Threei} next time it happens, try to locate the program
[09:12] {esemde} will do
[09:12] {Threei} go to C, Program Files, look for RTC
[09:12] {Threei} if it's there, it's just a shortcut
[09:12] {Threei} and you can launch the program by clicking on mirc.32.exe
[09:12] {Threei} and restore shortcut by right click on it,
[09:13] {Threei} Create shortcut
[09:13] {esemde} the thing that comes up is the reality trader install connector
[09:14] {esemde} when i click on the destop icon it can't find the program
[09:14] {esemde} so i then just reinstall
[09:14] {bruce} didn't you just get computer cleaned for virus ese?
[09:14] {esemde} sure did...to the tune of $150.00
[09:15] {bruce} thought so
[09:15] {esemde} it works better now for sure
[09:15] {Threei} wait
[09:15] {bruce} yes - except now glitches with installed programs
[09:15] {Threei} so shortcut is there but it's not finding the program
[09:16] {Threei} then right click on shortcut, Properties
[09:16] {Threei} and edit target so it pints to that mirc.32.exe
[09:18] {esemde} OK done...we'll see what happens tomorrow
[09:18] {bruce} cna looks like possible reversal candidate this am dino
[09:20] {Threei} interesting read for later:
[09:20] {Threei} http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Global_Economy/JD30Dj02.html
[09:21] {Threei} and general comment for today's and tomorrow's trading:
[09:21] {Threei} this FOMC rate decision is somewhat different from couple previous ones
[09:21] {dino} ua might be a bit of overreaction
[09:21] {Threei} those were clear cut case,
[09:21] {Threei} everyone knew what to expect
[09:21] {Threei} and it was kind of in the cards
[09:22] {Threei} as we near the end of rate cuts, both Fed action and market view of it become less clear
[09:22] {Threei} that's why we see this swampy action
[09:23] {Threei} let's continue being on defensive, for these couple days and see what transpires after
[09:23] {Threei} being out of earnings season and done with Fed, it should become more clear
[09:27] {dino} watchiong gil, ua, enr

[10:10] {Threei} IMO, you are fine qwith this entry ese
[10:10] {dino} watching it
[10:10] {Threei} .50 is safe reliable place for a stop,
[10:11] {Threei} with right size damage will be minimal
[10:11] {esemde} come on....come on....if it breaks .75 it should get to 11.00
[10:11] {Threei} and if it takes .75, your potential is quite lucrative
[10:11] {Threei} risk/reward wise it's a well-managed and fairly valid trade
[10:12] {esemde} tks
[10:13] {esemde} have a good instructor
[10:14] {Threei} not working
[10:14] {esemde} damn....stopped
[10:14] {Threei} quite possibly a shakeout, but who cares
[10:15] {Threei} there are just two states to any trade
[10:15] {esemde} -.15
[10:15] {Threei} works or doesn't
[10:15] {esemde} still a good trade though
[10:15] {Threei} it is
[10:15] {Threei} or was
[10:16] {esemde} yep
[10:16] {esemde} followed NDX to a tee
[10:16] {esemde} NDX was bumping up against 1926...it could have gone either way
[10:17] {Threei} magoo, you shorted RIMM off 124?
[10:17] {esemde} appears to be a shakeout
[10:18] {magoo} ah no..bidu off 367
[10:18] {magoo} covered 365.90
[10:18] {Threei} oh, I get it
[10:19] {Threei} RIMM is not enough adrenalin-laden for you
[10:19] {Threei} so you switched to BIDU
[10:19] {magoo} kind of same setup
[10:19] {magoo} can only handle 1 at time
[10:19] {magoo} same seup
[10:19] {magoo} setup
[10:19] {Threei} I'll wait for you to start trading GOOG to officially qualify you as adrenalin addict {G}
[10:23] {Threei} RIMM worth a long try if holding above .40
[10:24] {Threei} if loses, let it be for now
[10:25] {Threei} market sharp downtick, RIMM handled it rather well

[12:44] {bruce} mon long candidate dino - tricky one
[12:44] {Threei} pullback, return to the high,
[12:44] {Threei} now break of intraday high is needed to launch rally
[12:45] {Threei} ARBA is trying
[12:45] {Threei} if you go for it, stop under .30
[12:47] {dino} sidetracked for bit

[10:46] {bruce} insu - traditional break of high setup here vad
[10:48] {Threei} works too, to my amazement
[10:48] {bruce} sheesh - teleported though - no chance to enter

[10:51] {esemde} moved my stop on CREE to .83
[10:52] {dino} let me look then
[10:52] {Threei} HIGHER OIL PRICES WEIGHING UPON RECENT USD BULLISH SENTIMENT - DEALERS- Oil firmer on supply disruptions disruptions from Nigerian pipeline attacks, UK strike impact and geo-political factors that US Security fired warning shot at Iranian Boats in the Gulf on April 24th.
[10:53] {Threei} - A vessel contracted by the Navy in the Persian Gulf fired warning shots Thursday on two Iranian fast boats, FOX News has learned. The Westward Venture, a ship contracted by the Navy to carry military cargo to Kuwait, fired upon the boats Thursday after attempts to get Iranian boats' attention failed.
[10:53] {dino} that'll get their attention
[10:53] {esemde} i'll say...
[10:54] {dino} insu good report
[10:56] {Threei} OIH volaitlity is incredible today
[10:59] {bruce} vad - ifyou call up pbt does level one show you high and low for day?
[10:59] {Threei} not for listeds
[11:00] {bruce} k
[11:00] {Threei} use daily chart
[11:00] {bruce} yes - just wondering if laser was working right
[11:00] {Threei} point curos at today's candle, press left button, read high/low

[11:02] {dino} stop lod
[11:05] {dino} rimm feels like wants wed. bottom
[11:05] {bruce} can't blame vad for cursing - has to put up with magoo
[11:06] {dino} you should hear me then
[11:09] {esemde} out CREE .95 +.03
[11:10] {esemde} price is turning down
[11:16] {bruce} languahge not suitable for this room dino
[11:16] {dino} :)
[11:19] {dino} fstr stopped -.37
[11:19] {Threei} is this iranian thing getting any attention anywhere else but Fox?
[11:19] {Threei} I don't see it on CNN
[11:20] {Threei} or any other wires than one referring to Fox
[11:20] {esemde} signing off for a few minutes....
[11:21] {Threei} you'd think ness sinking market like this should be front and center
[11:21] {Threei} ness = news
[11:21] {patience} was reported on BNN News, but citing Fox
[11:21] {Threei} yeah, all I see refers to the same original source
[11:23] {Threei} if report appears about it being an unconfirmed rumor... I'll buy everything
[11:24] {fernp} US Security fires warning shots at Iran boats in Gulf (Briefing.com)
[11:24] {Threei} ty fernp
[11:25] {Threei} unclear if they got it independently or are citing the same Fox
[11:25] {fernp} citing Dow Jones news
[11:25] {Threei} ahha
[11:25] {Threei} that's more solid
[11:25] {Threei} ty
[11:26] {fernp} :)
[11:26] {dino} cme l 481.39 sm wide
[11:26] {Threei} I really hope it doesn't escalate to full blown military conflict
[11:26] {dino} rimm l 119.25 sm
[11:26] {bruce} not likely vad - that stuff happens all the time
[11:26] {bruce} boys playing with their toys
[11:27] {bruce} gotta gun - gotta use it
[11:27] {dino} it won't we are too stretched
[11:27] {Threei} well... very bad timing for this game
[11:27] {bruce} they sink a ship - then it gets serious
[11:27] {dino} happened about 2 weeks ago too
[11:27] {Threei} we are stretched... oil is already priced above economy's ability to handle it... inflation is already beyond bearable...
[11:28] {Threei} IMO, this war, if heaven forbid it starts, won't cause market rally like previous one dids
[11:29] {dino} of course, we are already in position. just need to paved and drill iraq
[11:29] {dino} paving it would take care of that nasty sand issue
[11:29] {Threei} VNDA?
[11:33] {dino} magoo just stopped by, slacker is taking today off
[11:34] {Threei} say hello to him
[11:34] {bruce} isis looking longagain dino
[11:34] {Threei} probably good choice, not much readable and tradeable so far
[11:34] * Chaeron slaps magoo with a large trout
[11:34] {dino} no mas, isis no mas

[11:44] {dino} bad prints at 28
[11:51] {esemde} i'm back....missed the Chaeron slap eh.....would have been highlight of the day...... rats...
[11:51] {Threei} I am torn a bit... on one hand, slapping laserdave on his appearance is always joyful occasion... on another, afraid of making it too routinish
[11:51] {GeoArb} not a fun day at all
[11:52] {esemde} tough decision
[11:52] {GeoArb} i think i am going to watch a kungfoomovie on netflix.... (instant gratification)
[11:53] {dino} lol
[11:55] {Threei} what can I say Geo... I am glad I backed off after first stop, haven't seen anything readable since then
[11:55] {GeoArb} yeah same here
[11:55] {GeoArb} took the first stop
[11:55] {Threei} some days are calling for defensive stance
[11:55] {GeoArb} and then have had the iron discipline of a kung foo master
[11:56] {GeoArb} ahh friday lots of drinking and barbecuing
[11:56] {bruce} only the discipline? thought you were a kung fu master geo
[11:56] {GeoArb} nah..... the wrong asian

[11:59] {GeoArb} an inside range day for sure till now
[12:14] {bruce} wow - above zero outside again - would break out the shorts but snow expected again
[12:14] {Threei} oh boy...
[12:14] {Threei} HOUSE SPEAKER PELOSI: SEES A STRONG NEED FOR A SECOND FISCAL STIMULUS BILL, DISCUSSIONS WITH WHITE HOUSE HAVE BEGUN- House Republican leader Boener says talks are a step in the right direction.
[12:15] {bruce} sounds like desperation moves vad
[12:15] {Threei} this is beyond ridiculous
[12:15] {bruce} I think theyt should just send money to their friends to he north
[12:15] {bruce} then we can buy stuf and stimulate their economy for em
[12:15] {Threei} yup... at least we would cause more inflation on this side of the border, not on theirs
[12:15] {bruce} whatcould be fairer?
[12:17] {Threei} also, on per capita basis it would be much more effective
[12:17] {dino} can you tell it's an election year?
[12:17] {Threei} since our entire population is less than just Califirnia
[12:18] {Chaeron} that much?
[12:19] {bruce} l aet 43.36 - stop 8c

[13:20] {bruce} hk short candidate- prefer a small long retace before breaking below .72
[13:33] {Threei} if market proceeds to make new lows, it's going to be first real follow through in weeks
[13:35] {Threei} in l,ine with recent patterns, I'd rather expect 30 points rally now, lol
[13:52] {Threei} 5 points so far... 25 left
[13:53] {dino} same thinking here

[12:56] {GeoArb} his library and plane is about 15 miles from my house
[12:56] {GeoArb} love the jelly bean portrait
[12:56] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:56] {dino} cool
[12:56] {Chaeron} I'm close to Nixon's Geo :)

[12:57] * Raven slaps Threei around a bit with a large trout
[12:59] {Threei} what was that for
[12:59] {Threei} as if it wasn't enough that I am sooo removed from all the famous libraries
[13:00] {Raven}
3 who gives a rat's ass about the libraries ... your climate makes up for that
[13:00] {Chaeron} move to Arkansas... be Bill's best bud and hang out on the porchof his library
[13:00] {Raven}

[13:10] {Threei} tough read here guys
[13:10] {Threei} staying on a sideline
[13:10] {Threei} market is pregnant with sharp move, and sirection is anyone's guess
[13:10] {Threei} direction too
[13:14] {dino} gibberish huh?
[13:15] {Threei} what did you call me?
[13:15] {dino} lol
[13:16] {Threei} slapped by raven, called names by dino AND living in area removed from all the sources of knowledge
[13:16] {Threei} my life goes down the drain...
[13:16] {GeoArb} who said presedential libraries were knowledge?
[13:16] {GeoArb} google
[13:16] {patience} guess all you can do is sit on the dock, with butter and garlic and fresh crab
[13:17] {Threei} google doesn't help much when you can't read
[13:17] {GeoArb} i just like the jelly bean portrait
[13:17] {Threei} books on the other hand provide protection from prying eyes if you place them (books) strategically, so they cover your closed eyes
[13:18] {Threei} the only thing you need to take of is not to keep them upside down
[13:18] {Threei} that could be a clue
[13:34] {Threei} feels like RIMM short will be a play soon
[13:34] {Threei} need more confidence that NQ is done rallying
[13:34] {Threei} so far, 50/50
[13:34] {magoo} aapl too
[13:37] {Threei} OK... can we have a bounce now please,
[13:37] {Threei} with RIMM staying under 124.20
[13:38] {Threei} but coming close enough to it for a stop to be narrow enough
[13:41] {Threei} in
[13:42] {Threei} .31 stop
[13:42] {Threei} didn't take long eh
[13:44] {Threei} second try

[13:47] {Threei} sheesh
[13:47] {Threei} sigh
[13:48] {Threei} back to sleep
[13:52] {dino} cap't cavm spike
[13:52] {Threei} US TREASURY SEC PAULSON: CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC ON GSE REFORM FOLLOWING MEETING WITH FNM, FRE AND LAWMAKERS
[13:55] {dino} shake 'n bake
[14:02] {Threei} US TREASURY SECRETARY PAULSON CITES PROGRESS IN CALMING FINANCIAL MARKETS, FOCUS INCREASINGLY ON STIMULATING ECONOMY
[14:02] {Threei} - Likes part of Rep Frank's FHA bill, no veto threat from President Bush, supports idea of having FHA back troubled loans after write-down.
[14:02] {Threei} - US economy has slowed considerably, faces headwinds from high oil prices. Cites progress in calming markets, says focus will be increasingly on stimulating the economy.
[14:02] {Threei} - Aiming to minimize spillover from market turmoil into the economy, but it can't be avoided entirely.
[14:02] {Threei} - Risk is being repriced, astute investors are putting captial to work in distressed markets.
[14:03] {Threei} - Financial markets, not govenrments, best set benchmark values for illiquid securities.
[14:03] {Threei} - Won't forecast when the turmoil might end, some markets still not operating normally.
[14:03] {Threei} my personal read is:
[14:04] {Threei} We seem to be succeeding in postponing the crisis and making our kids or grandkids face it
[14:04] {Threei} and, since it's going to be their problem, we care not
[14:05] {dino} isn't that the governmental way?
[14:05] {hawkfan4} {==and no kids, so that goes double for me ;})
[14:06] {dino} promise the world, don't worry about paying for it
[14:06] {Threei} reminds me a wise hero of some Far East parables who agreed to teach a donkey to speak, accepting hefty amount from shah; money was supposed to sustain him for 20 years which was the term for a donky to demonstrate speaking skills
[14:07] {dino} i have to laugh, the $600 rebates hilary and obama are taking credit for, but at the same time they are going to raise all taxes
[14:07] {Threei} when asked how he was going to keep the promise he said, "come on, in 20 years one of three will be dead - me, shah or donkey"
[14:08] {Threei} JPM
[14:08] {Threei} TO SUSPEND TAKING FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN APPLICATIONS
[14:08] {Threei} why?
[14:08] {dino} so, we give the average guy $600 next month, but next year he pays $4k more in taxes
[14:09] {Threei} isn't credit crunch defeated?
[14:09] {Threei} or JPM made not enough on BSC deal?
[14:09] {dino} wants another deal perhaps
[14:10] {dino} needs funds for it
[14:12] {markweb} BRCM nice, Roman

[11:42] {Threei} that was what I was wondering as well :)

[11:42] {Threei} lol dino
[11:42] {dino} livermoore would
[11:43] {GeoArb} thats what they would do after april 26?
[11:43] {dino} you will soon see the filings come thru msft owns 30% etc
[11:44] {Threei} livermore withdraw his offer, sold big, showed huge offers all over the place, started nasty rumors all over the place, drive price down to 15 where he would have bought whole thing
[11:44] {Threei} insert "would" in there
[11:44] {dino} and you have a problem w/that...isn't that whats going on all over

[12:30] {hawkfan4} nice one, thx vad
[12:30] {Threei} :)
[12:30] {GeoArb} yeah i was going to say
[12:30] {Threei} wanted RIMM too but two of such simultaneously would be too much
[12:30] {GeoArb} nahhh
[12:31] {magoo} very nice AAPL vad
[12:32] {Threei} ty
[12:33] {Threei} moved 20 cents beyond our sale price, lol
[12:33] {Threei} but heck... easy money is easy money... last 1/8 is the source of all the troubles
[12:34] {Threei} RIMM close to previous turning point
[12:35] {Threei} watch NQ for reversal and scalp
[12:35] {Threei} will be too fast to call
[12:35] {Threei} don't enter until you see NQ turning
[12:36] {Threei} if you miss, so be it
[12:36] {Threei} no confidence still
[12:38] {Threei} AAPL sharp downtick, not holding double bottom
[12:38] {Threei} RIMM is better candidate this time around
[12:39] {Threei} closest support is .20
[12:39] {Threei} OK, in
[12:39] {Threei} .19 stop
[12:39] {magoo} where?
[12:39] {Chaeron} in .33
[12:39] {Threei} .33
[12:40] {magoo} .31
[12:40] {Threei} AAPL bouncing, NQ too
[12:40] {Threei} come on RIMM
[12:40] {Threei} move your butt
[12:42] {Threei} offering half above .50
[12:44] {Threei} hmmm... am I too greedy on this one
[12:44] {magoo} crap..aapl went near a poiunt
[12:44] {Threei} don't care
[12:44] {Threei} it was unreadable move by itself
[12:45] {Threei} but as leading indicator for RIMM it served well
[12:46] {Threei} RIMM is solidly above 1:1, just want more considering how small risk was on this entry
[12:46] {Threei} meaning, don't care about 15 cents stop
[12:47] {Threei} if you do, just take 1:1 and be done with it
[12:47] {magoo} you are a machine..u have completely elimated the emotion of it
[12:47] {Threei} what to be emotional about... it's a stock
[12:48] {Threei} not a girl
[12:48] {Threei} not even a cool techno gadget
[12:48] {magoo} see..i know we played laast aapl bounce..i see it as lost opportunity
[12:48] {Threei} that one was readable
[12:48] {Threei} this one wasn't
[12:49] {Threei} I can't play what I can't read
[12:49] {Threei} lost opportunity to me is when I see a move, get read on it and for some rteason don't uitilize it
[12:50] {Threei} that bothers me because it shows something was wrong with my action
[12:50] {Threei} out RIMM
[12:50] {bruce} \out shpgy for now +.25

[12:52] {bruce} you played it well
[12:54] {Threei} somewhat controversial play: RIMM long on .50 break
[12:54] {dino} not in bruce waiting at 47.98
[12:54] {Threei} it showed to be such strong resistance, break makes sense for entry now
[12:56] {bruce} k
[12:58] {magoo} all we need is the 1 pm market spike
[13:01] {Threei} market becomes a bit too jerky here
[13:02] {Threei} RIMM is no break anymore
[13:02] {Threei} bounce yes but break no
[13:03] {magoo} i rrally think it depends on naz

[11:24] {bruce} yep
[11:24] {bruce} oms
[11:25] {bruce} stop was .01
[11:25] {bruce} stock hit .75 and still hadn't fired
[11:25] {bruce} disabled it and exited manually
[11:25] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} thats happened to me a few times...but I think that happens with most execution software
[11:26] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} can't be trusted
[11:26] {bruce} too bad - would be nice to know you can take a bathroom break with a trade on and not have to worry about getting killed
[11:26] {Threei} bruce, can you sent me the settings you use for a stop?
[11:26] {Threei} want to test it
[11:26] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} I think it works better with thick stocks
[11:28] {dino} most do
[11:28] {bruce} action buy - speed fixed - price indicator - stop - price 16.01
[11:28] {bruce} those were settngs vad
[11:28] {bruce} severl trades executed below those levels
[11:28] {Threei} buy?
[11:29] {bruce} yes -
[11:30] {bruce} if had made mistake and set sell it would have added shares since was at 26. 30 when I entered trade
[11:30] {bruce} not big hit - traded it small - very disappointing though
[11:31] {Threei} I am lost
[11:31] {Threei} you were setting a stop for long position?
[11:31] {bruce} would like to have multiple trades on with some safeguard against huge market move
[11:31] {bruce} yes
[11:31] {Threei} so how can it be buy?
[11:32] {bruce} sheesh - sorry - it was a sell stop
[11:33] {Threei} you sure you are not making this mistake when entering it?...
[11:33] {Threei} you just gave an expkanation to why buy and not sell
[11:33] {bruce} yes - neterd and set stop after
[11:34] {magoo} aapl should blast off here...RISKY
[11:35] {Threei} jj, look dcc please
[11:36] {bruce} it was long trade

Apr 18 2008

Session Time: Fri Apr 18 00:00:00 2008

[08:22] {Threei} OIL SURGES AS INVESTORS HUNT AN 'ANTI-DOLLAR' - AMBROSE EVANS-PRITCHARD AT THE TELEGRAPH
- "There is some evidence that Opec has actually cut output by 350,000 bpd since the start of the year - a hostile move in the current climate. It blames the latest spike on "speculators", claiming that world demand will fall 1.4m bpd to 85.7m this quarter as the US grapples with recession."
[08:26] {hawkfan4} good morning
[08:26] {Threei} hawk :)
[08:29] {Threei} so far just what I hate... huge gap up
[08:30] {hawkfan4} and on options friday, not very promising
[08:30] {Threei} ah well
[08:31] {Threei} that was not my stellar week by any standard
[08:31] {Threei} can just as well finish it on mediocre note :)
[08:32] {hawkfan4} lol :) mediocore friday
[08:43] {fernp} gm
[08:43] {magoo} morn
[08:43] {Threei} fernp, magoo :)
[08:53] {Threei} 07:59am [OSTK] Reports Q1 -$0.17 v -$0.32e, R $200.7M v $168.9Me
[08:56] {Onix} Good morning
[08:56] {Threei} onix :)
[08:57] {magoo} vad..from all your experience..wouldn't you think goog will at least have some kind of pullback near opening bell or after bell?
[08:57] {magoo} 82 points
[08:57] {Threei} this is a total coin toss mags...
[08:57] {Threei} look at it this way
[08:58] {Threei} GOOG makes such big moves that it's practically impossible to tell meanignful move from simple uptick/downtick
[08:58] {Threei} where normal stock would get 10 cents pullback, GOOG will make 3-5 bucks one
[08:58] {magoo} but...some poeople got to want to lock that in
[08:59] {Threei} you can manage risk with 10 cents pullback
[08:59] {Threei} can you do the same with 5 bucks pullback?
[08:59] {Threei} its noise has magnitude much bigger than our usual meanigful moves
[09:00] {Threei} you can't trade noise because there is no read to it
[09:00] {Threei} and you can't trade its normal signals because noise exceeds your risk tolerance
[09:00] {Threei} this makes this stock simply untradeable to me
[09:01] {Threei} don't look at it from the point of view of what its chart says... look at it from risk management point of view
[09:01] {Threei} you may get lucky and hit big payoff
[09:01] {Threei} you get unlucky, your loss exceeds your worst nightmare
[09:01] {Threei} in my world it's called gambling
[09:03] {magoo} but..say it drpos sharply say 40 poinyts..isn't it a tradeable cbounce read then?
[09:03] {Threei} to give you further idea about how I approach this, think of our trades on RIMM?AAPL/AMZN in the following terms:
[09:03] {Threei} while we have overall positive experience with them
[09:03] {Threei} our shakeout rate is bigger on them than on your garden variety stock
[09:03] {Threei} why?
[09:04] {Threei} because the only way to stay positive on them is
[09:04] {Threei} to control your risk tight, hunt for the most favorable conditions and try to hit at the right moment.
[09:04] {Threei} However with this comes being shaken out more often on noise
[09:05] {Threei} because their noise is bigger than on garden-variety.
[09:05] {Threei} Now, this signal-to-noise ratio
[09:05] {magoo} true..and size down
[09:05] {Threei} is beyond average on these
[09:05] {Threei} which is exactly the reason for frequent shakeouts
[09:06] {Threei} yet when they do move for us
[09:06] {Threei} they post nice gains that keep us in green overall.
[09:06] {Threei} So when you look at trading them as a process vs separate events, it's a valid way to trade them.
[09:06] {Threei} But, their noise is about max we can handle
[09:07] {Threei} GOOG is way beyond that
[09:07] {Threei} so is BIDU
[09:07] {magoo} and POT
[09:07] {Threei} POT is somewhere inbetween RIMM/AAPL and GOOG/BIDU
[09:07] {Threei} [09:03] {magoo} but..say it drpos sharply say 40 poinyts..isn't it a tradeable cbounce read then?
[09:08] {Threei} sure... but why 40?
[09:08] {Threei} it went up yesterday over 50, andf that was still not all
[09:08] {Threei} how do you tell 40 from 35 or 45 on a stock that makes "meaningful" move of 40 points and then noise part of it 5 more?
[09:09] {Threei} and with noise you can't tell direction
[09:09] {Threei} you hit it at -40, it makes 5 more as a noise
[09:09] {Threei} before reversing.
[09:09] {Threei} You are right chart wise, yet you get hit with nasty loss
[09:09] {Threei} not my cup of tea...
[09:10] {magoo} i see your point
[09:12] {Threei} it's just that for me risk management goes first
[09:12] {Threei} and I cannot for the worlkd of me manage risk effectively on this stock
[09:13] {markweb} good morning all
[09:13] {Threei} mark :)
[09:13] {markweb} :)
[09:15] {cosmo} goog morning
[09:15] {Threei} you bidu us goog morning?

[09:24] {patience} morning ese and rt :)
[09:26] {cosmo} OSTK
[09:26] {Threei} geo, ese, patience :)
[09:27] {Threei} geo... from earlier:
[09:27] {Threei} [08:29] {Threei} so far just what I hate... huge gap up
[09:27] {Threei} [08:30] {hawkfan4} and on options friday, not very promising
[09:27] {Threei} [08:30] {Threei} ah well
[09:27] {Threei} [08:31] {Threei} that was not my stellar week by any standard
[09:27] {Threei} [08:31] {Threei} can just as well finish it on mediocre note :)
[09:27] {GeoArb} i read a great line in trading in zone
[09:27] {GeoArb} most traders experiences/feelings consist of the last couple of trades
[09:28] {Threei} SUSQUEHANNA CUTS POZN TO NET NEUTRAL FROM NET POSITIVE
[09:28] {GeoArb} professions look at last several 100 or something like that
[09:28] {GeoArb} professionals
[09:28] {Threei} yup... that's why I emphasize so often: view trading as a process, not as event or series of events
[09:29] {GeoArb} i did reduce my size though
[09:29] {GeoArb} i dont want consistent worst case to put me out of business :)
[09:31] {Threei} watching BRCM
[09:32] {Threei} need pullback to form the setup
[09:33] {Threei} yeah right
[09:33] {Threei} NFLX
[09:33] {Threei} half lot long .90
[09:33] {Threei} stop under .60
[09:34] {Threei} probably even less than half lot, considering slippage
[09:35] {bruce} cien looks long vad
[09:35] {Threei} NFLX invalidated
[09:35] {Threei} CIEN, 32 long bruce, yes
[09:37] {bruce} erts also looking strong - need pullbadck
[09:40] {Threei} BRCM better
[09:40] {Threei} may try aggressively here
[09:40] {Threei} with tight stop under .60
[09:40] {Threei} odds are 50/50, rather risk based setup
[09:41] {bruce} brcm stop 48 or wso?
[09:41] {Threei} if loses .60, look for another entry point closer to .40
[09:41] {magoo} full lot?
[09:41] {esemde} OSTK.....missed it
[09:41] {Threei} let it show strength first
[09:41] {Threei} yes, full lot, too tight stop
[09:42] {Threei} CIEN triggered
[09:42] {Threei} for scalpers stop .89, for daytrade .79
[09:46] {Threei} CIEN 1:1 for scalpers
[09:46] {esemde} FISV.....missed this as well....findingthings to late
[09:46] {Threei} no strength yet NQ

[09:47] {bruce} l brcm .38
[09:48] {Threei} beautiful entry bruce
[09:48] {Threei} I overthought it
[09:49] {Threei} RIMM looks like time to try it
[09:49] {Threei} stop under .60 if you got it
[09:50] {Threei} CIEN 1:1 for daytraders
[09:51] {Threei} notice how CIEN is oblivious to market weakness?
[09:52] {fernp} out CIEN +.22 Thanks Vad
[09:52] {bruce} thanx vad - topped +.02c didn't want to let it go against me
[09:52] {esemde} was just looking at CIEN....
[09:52] {Threei} mags
[09:52] {Threei} look at GOOG
[09:53] {Threei} by normal measurements, 528 is long setup
[09:53] {Threei} don't trade it
[09:53] {Threei} observe
[09:53] {magoo} i have been observing..ty
[09:53] {Threei} there.. can you hanbdle such voaltility?
[09:54] {Threei} it breaks, immediately drops 50 cents
[09:54] {bruce} sheesh cien - missed entry playing brcm

[09:57] {markweb} pl read
[09:57] {Threei} ah
[09:57] {Threei} .30 is next barrier to break, stop is .09 for the balance,
[09:57] {Threei} if it breaks .30, low of this pullback becomes next level to trail stop to
[09:59] {esemde} bstop ADSK .91 1/2 lot
[10:00] {Threei} stop under .80 ese?
[10:00] {Threei} or you want .60 as support?

[10:53] {Threei} either you have an experience with such plays or stay away
[10:53] {Threei} all I can do is to give the overall idea of the play
[10:54] {Threei} no way to post in time
[11:01] {Threei} another NQ spike is coming
[11:01] {Threei} lol... arrived while I typed
[11:04] {Threei} what the...
[11:05] {Threei} did we catch OBL?
[11:05] {GeoArb} obl?
[11:05] {Threei} state enemy #1? :)
[11:05] {GeoArb} ohhh
[11:07] {Threei} FORMER FED CHMN GREENSPAN: WOULD 'LIKE TO SAY WORST OF CREDIT CRISIS IS OVER', CREDIT MARKET IS 'STILL CRITICAL'
[11:13] {magoo} i was disconnected..am i here??
[11:14] {Threei} yes
[11:14] {magoo} because i type and it posts like i was here
[11:14] {magoo} so TY
[11:14] {magoo} thought u all had me on ignore
[11:15] {patience} never magoo
[11:15] {magoo} wouldn't blame u he he
[11:15] {Threei} we do... but we would never admit it, we are too polite
[11:19] {magoo} vad..aapl bounce or rimm bounce or no support here?
[11:19] {Threei} will totally depend on NQ
[11:19] {Threei} none of them trades on their owqn merit right now
[11:20] {magoo} understood..just wondering if u watching
[11:23] {markweb} out BRCM +.50 Thanks VAD & BRUCE
[11:24] {Threei} mark is killing the market today
[11:24] {markweb} no
[11:25] {GeoArb} i hereby declare today as the mediocricity erasing friday
[11:25] {Threei} lol
[11:25] {bruce} not my call mark
[11:25] {bruce} glad it worked for you
[11:26] {markweb} i have 4/8
[11:26] {bruce} nice win
[11:27] {Threei} what about win/loss size ratio?
[11:27] {Threei} 50% hit rate works if you manage size ratio right
[11:28] {markweb} 4 win 4 loss/ in green
[11:28] {Threei} size of win vs size of loss is what I mean
[11:29] {markweb} aprx. same
[11:29] {Threei} another NQ spike is coming
[11:29] {Threei} hmmm
[11:30] {Threei} if they are the same, something isn't quite right
[11:30] {markweb} y
[11:30] {Threei} going for strict 1:1 should give you more wins
[11:30] {Threei} holding for more gains will lower amount of wins but improve size ratio
[11:31] {magoo} mark,,u laser?
[11:31] {magoo} go to analysis
[11:31] {markweb} with IB
[11:33] {markweb} doctor have to go to my analysis:)

[11:37] {GeoArb} probably not for you magoo
[11:37] {magoo} my style
[11:37] {magoo} why
[11:37] {GeoArb} youre a fast scalper
[11:37] {GeoArb} their LII SUCKS
[11:38] {GeoArb} but they are the only broker i know with universal account and extensive API with the bredth of instruments
[11:38] {bruce} how so geo - slow display?
[11:39] {GeoArb} slow and bad :)
[11:39] {GeoArb} mark wanna chime in?
[11:39] {markweb} charting is ^%$&^$%
[11:39] {GeoArb} also they dont do tick data
[11:39] {GeoArb} its snapshots lol
[11:40] {magoo} hmm..how do i apply?
[11:40] {GeoArb} mark DCC pls
[11:40] {bruce} snapshots - not real time ? wow - sucks big time
[11:40] {GeoArb} no its realtime
[11:40] {GeoArb} they just choose to sample and aggregate
[11:41] {GeoArb} lets say one burst every 100 ms
[11:41] {GeoArb} no realtime
[11:41] {GeoArb} tick by tick
[11:41] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[11:42] {GeoArb} markweb dcc pls
[11:42] {GeoArb} its good for maitaining positions

[11:46] {Threei} PTEN
[11:47] {Threei} .31 worth a try
[11:47] {Threei} sheesh... too fast
[11:47] {Threei} support .20, see if it pulls back for entry
[11:48] {bruce} amzn on fire
[11:50] {magoo} holy crap AMZN
[11:50] {Threei} XIDE shook us out
[11:50] * Chaeron slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[11:51] {bruce} cien holding hi so far - read on long break vad?
[11:52] {Threei} NQ rather feels like topping out bruce
[11:52] {Threei} at least temporarily
[11:52] {bruce} k- not surprised - reluctant to go long at these levels - thanx
[11:53] {Threei} maybe spike or tewo more but risk becomes way too high here
[11:53] {Threei} because when selloss comes it's likely to be quite hard
[11:53] {Threei} selloff
[11:54] {bruce} yes - was thinkiing same
[11:54] {bruce} looking for short candidates
[11:54] {GeoArb} good friday guys.... off to work... have a great weeekend
[11:55] {Threei} take care Geo, have a good one

[11:57] {jmb} PTEN Thanks Vad
[11:57] {Threei} :)
[11:57] {Threei} sheesh JASO
[11:57] {Threei} Roman hit the nail on this one
[11:58] {Roman}

[11:59] {tomg} ty pten, vad

[12:00] {judijim} taking break be back hour, good day + so far
[12:06] {Threei} take care tom
[12:07] {bruce} bye tom
[12:07] {Threei} CIEN lost the lustre bruce
[12:07] {bruce} congrats jj- you seem to be very consistnet
[12:07] {Threei} break would have been a trap
[12:07] {Threei} good thing we restrained elation
[12:07] {bruce} yes - thought it might - wuld like to see small spike up then short in it
[12:08] {bruce} ibm wlt same long trap
[12:20] {bruce} looks like market still wants up vad
[12:21] {Threei} amazing as it is
[12:25] {Threei} starts feeling like it wants just continue climbing
[12:25] {Threei} not sure I can find easy follopwer though
[12:26] {Threei} there is always QID short of course
[12:26] {Threei} but it's anything but easy
[12:29] {Threei} if NQ bottoms off 1910 and resumes, it should roughly match QID bounce into 43 and resumption of downward
[12:29] {Threei} let's watch how it works
[12:30] {Threei} meawhile... look at NASDAQ daily...
[12:30] {Threei} quite something
[12:30] {Threei} inverted head and shoulder confirmed
[12:30] {Threei} double bottom confirmed
[12:31] {Threei} inverted cup and handle failed
[12:31] {Threei} all bullish formations you can think of
[12:31] {Threei} all kinds of MA rossovers too
[12:32] {Threei} crossovers
[12:32] {Threei} and all this happens when financial/economic climate is one of 1929 kind
[12:33] {Threei} don't be so sleepy guys
[12:34] {Threei} you are wintnessing historic market events
[12:34] {Threei} at least pretend you are interested
[12:34] {magoo} am..want a trade
[12:36] {patience} i am not asleep, just have so many trades in, hedging all over the place.. i'm like magoo...just want a clean scalping opportunity :)
[12:51] {Threei} RIMM short around .50
[12:51] {Threei} with stop above .65
[12:51] {magoo} like it
[12:52] {magoo} amzn too vad..opinion?
[12:52] {Threei} none
[12:53] {magoo} aapl sh?
[12:53] {Threei} can't make sense of AMZN
[12:53] {Threei} AAPL is similar to RIMM but 161.50 is too far now
[12:53] {Threei} RIMM works if you got it above .40 or so
[12:54] {magoo} i just sh aapl @ 161.06
[12:54] {Threei} not my kind of trade
[12:55] {magoo} should have covered indstead of typing
[12:55] {magoo} sigh
[12:55] {Threei} why short into such sharp bar
[12:55] {magoo} loss of whole number..mkt pulling back
[12:56] {Threei} look how RIMM works... thing of beauty
[12:56] {Threei} clean, nice, low risk
[12:57] {Threei} wow... bruce
[12:57] {Threei} 30-50 cm of snow in your neck of woods by Tuesday??
[13:07] {bruce} dunno vad
[13:07] {bruce} anything can happen here
[13:07] {bruce} nice out now
[13:07] {bruce} when it gets above freezing people put on shorts and t shirts
[13:09] {Chaeron} it's going to be 82 or so here......

[13:26] {magoo} laserdave, dcc please
[13:33] {Threei} if NQ breaks 1915, AAPL would be my lond candidate
[13:33] {magoo} more than RIMM?
[13:33] {Threei} yeah
[13:43] {Threei} OESX CNBC hype
[13:46] {magoo} LASERDAVE, check DCC
[13:46] {bruce} wow pcln one dollar spike in 15 seconds - a lot of shorts just got squeexed
[13:47] {Threei} no news too
[13:56] {Threei} ENERGY SEC BODMAN SAYS AWARE OF CONCERNS ABOUT EMPHASIS ON ETHANOL
- Adds that concern about environmental impact "not misplaced", but environmental concerns not reason to ignore biofuels
[13:56] {Threei} - Wants diversity of biofuels as it means "moving away" from corn-based ethanol
[14:00] {Laserdave1} magooooooo dcc please
[14:11] {bruce} ibm looks short here
[14:12] {Threei} I don't see any new news
[14:12] {Threei} this drop is another round of market jerkiness
[14:13] {Threei} and can easily turn into new jump
[14:13] {Threei} no new positions
[14:13] {Threei} let it resolve itself
[14:13] {magoo} oh oh
[14:14] * dptl slaps ThurstonHowellTheThird around a bit with a large trout

[09:31] {magoo} yep
[09:32] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} gm all
[09:32] {Threei} EPIC half lot short on 8 breakdown
[09:32] {Threei} thtt :)
[09:33] {Threei} stop 8.25
[09:35] {Threei} too volatile... let's tighten it to abive 8.10
[09:35] {Threei} if shakes out so be it
[09:36] {Threei} feel free to dump it, jumps too much
[09:39] {Threei} PTEN
[09:39] {Threei} .50 long
[09:39] {Threei} stop under .35
[09:39] {magoo} AAPL held that naz dump well

[09:40] {Threei} PTEN 1:1, 1/3 out for me
[09:40] {Threei} 1/2 sorry
[09:41] {Threei} looks capable of more
[09:41] {Roman}
21 JASO high
[09:41] {Threei} CSIQ and CSUN strength too
[09:43] {Threei} .44 stop for the balance PTEN

[09:44] {Threei} EBAY
[09:44] {Threei} short candidate on bounce
[09:45] {Threei} as close to 31 as possible
[09:45] {magoo} EBAY report bad?

[11:28] {Threei} risk is increased
[11:28] {esemde} outta here for the day all....
[11:28] {Threei} as resistance now is farther from trigger

[12:21] {Threei} CPST is highly irritating...
[12:23] {Threei} sometimes risk adversity keeps one from nice trades... couple dasys ago I was on a brink of calling DYII swing trade at 5.10
[12:24] {Threei} then decided it was crazy to go into swings in this masrket
[12:24] {Threei} crying now
[12:40] {Threei} everyone's asleep?
[12:41] {GeoArb} oh just waiting for you to finish crying

[12:55] {Threei} if stays above .90
[12:56] {Threei} 73.80 is a short trigger if it can't break olut
[12:57] {Threei} a bit too far from resistance, so be careful not to short into fast drop
[12:58] {Threei} take a look at 11:40 - 11:57 period to see what mean,
[12:58] {Threei} sharp drops into support followed by bounces
[12:59] {Threei} hunterlayne, you here?

[13:04] {GeoArb} stopped AMZN
[13:06] {_hunterlayne} Here
[13:06] {_hunterlayne} what ticker are you suggesting at 73.80
[13:06] {Threei} you wanted to ask something about RT yesterday?
[13:06] {_hunterlayne} not really, I just wanted to socialize and get to know the few people that were in the chat room
[13:06] {_hunterlayne} I'm seeing if I'm interested in this
[13:06] {Threei} OK... they are not usually here that late :)
[13:07] {Threei} that was about AMZN... didn't really show any setup either way
[13:07] {_hunterlayne} haha, yea I figured
[13:07] {Threei} invalidated long by losing support, then did the same to short
[13:07] {GeoArb} hmmm i missed that
[13:07] {GeoArb} paid for it
[13:08] {Threei} it lost .90 twice before breaking 74 geo
[13:08] {Threei} on volatile stock, sometimes little loss of support is OK,
[13:08] {GeoArb} what can i say.........
[13:08] {Threei} but twice - nah
[13:08] {GeoArb} :)
[13:08] {Threei} I don't know... if you are watching a stock for setup, are you really watching it? :)
[13:09] {GeoArb} yup .88 .89
[13:09] {_hunterlayne} The only problem I have is that I'm in college and I have lots of school work
[13:09] {Threei} hmmm
[13:09] {_hunterlayne} and day trading (since I gained access to my account) has been fairly distracting lol
[13:09] {Threei} maybe it's a good idea to finish a college first? :)
[13:10] {Threei} I don't want to present an obstacle on your way to education
[13:10] {_hunterlayne} haha, you aren't I promise
[13:10] {Threei} not telling you what to do of course
[13:10] {_hunterlayne} I already have my acceptance into dental school in the bag.. so don't worry
[13:10] {Threei} just offering options :)
[13:11] {Threei} OK, you know your situation better than anyone else
[13:11] {Threei} so... Seifield was right, and dentists do have their own schools?
[13:12] {_hunterlayne} Yup
[13:12] {_hunterlayne} I haven't seen that episode, but yes we do have 'Dental Schools'
[13:12] * Threei slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[13:13] {Threei} find it... funny one
[13:13] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} I think magoo is an anti-dentite
[13:13] {Threei} he certainly is
[13:13] {_hunterlayne} lol
[13:14] {_hunterlayne} What are your thoughts on RBCN, Vad?
[13:15] {Threei} volume is way too low to structure any play intraday
[13:15] {Threei} kind of "trades by appointment"
[13:16] {Threei} by daily chart, 25 is critical junction for it
[13:17] {Threei} if it comes to 25 slowly, consolidates a little and breaks, has a good chance for recovery
[13:17] {_hunterlayne} I'll keep that in mind
[13:18] {Threei} and for any pattern to become more reliable on it, it needs real volume
[13:18] {_hunterlayne} Were you guys around for Bear Stearns??
[13:18] {Threei} we watched in awe
[13:18] {Threei} lol
[13:18] {_hunterlayne} loll
[13:18] {_hunterlayne} me too
[13:18] {_hunterlayne} I wish I would have bought when it bottomed out.. I was so close
[13:19] {Threei} wait... what was it that we shorted
[13:19] {Threei} and rode down like 15 points
[13:19] {Threei} Geo, you played it
[13:19] {Threei} was it BSC or something elsea?
[13:19] {GeoArb} yeah
[13:19] {Threei} ahha
[13:19] {GeoArb} only 6 points though
[13:19] {GeoArb} that has been paying for all my misakes this week
[13:19] {Threei} well... can't really blame you for covering that monster too soon, lol
[13:20] {GeoArb} yeah i was scared
[13:20] {Threei} who would have thought thing could tank like that
[13:20] {_hunterlayne} lol yea, wayy too risky. I just left it as personal entertainment
[13:21] {Threei} that was the day before its infampus gapo to 2, right?
[13:21] {GeoArb} glad i closed
[13:22] {Threei} why... if you held, you would have made a history
[13:22] {Threei} probably got invetsigated by SEC too
[13:22] {GeoArb} could have gone either way :)
[13:22] {GeoArb} not for 200 shares
[13:22] {_hunterlayne} Vad, citibank?
[13:22] {Threei} wrong... they won't touch one who did million... but small time trader, let's get him
[13:23] {_hunterlayne} tell me whats wrong/right with it right now
[13:23] {Threei} I've no idea
[13:23] {Threei} you know... steal a million, you are an enterpreneur... steal 100 bucks, you are criminal
[13:24] {GeoArb} yeah kill one guy youre a murderer
[13:24] {GeoArb} kill milions
[13:24] {GeoArb} Alexander the great
[13:24] {Threei} right
[13:24] {Threei} hunter... all banks/financials are pretty much gamble right now
[13:25] {Threei} financial situation, credit problems, liquidity problems are very serious
[13:25] {_hunterlayne} I meant Citigroup
[13:25] {_hunterlayne} sorry
[13:25] {Threei} what general public sees in a form of subprime crisis is just a tip of iceberg
[13:26] {Threei} will Fed/goverment be able to prevent the total colapse or not, is open question
[13:26] {GeoArb} you guys heard about the LIBOR and how all banks might be lieing?
[13:26] {Threei} and if they will, it still doesn't mean there won't be a failed bank here and there
[13:26] {GeoArb} WSJ article yesterday
[13:26] {Threei} yes Geo
[13:27] {Threei} LIBOR is not confirming what they say
[13:27] {Threei} it's being said by different analysts over last month or so
[13:27] {GeoArb} also peole not trusting LIBOR
[13:27] {GeoArb} as banks not reporting the correct borrowing rate
[13:27] {GeoArb} as it tells everyone they were desparate
[13:28] {Threei} on the other side of equation,
[13:28] {Threei} intervention in BSC fiasco shows to what depth powers that be are willing to go in order to prevent systemic failure
[13:28] {GeoArb} as a freind of mine said..... forget gold and silver.....
[13:29] {GeoArb} the only metal that matters is lead lol
[13:29] {Threei} lol

[13:49] {Threei} market really stuck
[13:49] {_hunterlayne} for real
[13:49] {_hunterlayne} boring
[13:49] {Threei} NFLX continues making new highs

[13:54] {Threei} seems to be locked for a while between .50 and 119
[13:58] {_hunterlayne} are you going to get in?
[13:59] {_hunterlayne} if so, where at exactly
[13:59] {Threei} too far from support
[13:59] {Threei} not chasing it
[14:00] {Threei} it moves between 118.5 and 119 for a while, what's the point in buying that closer to upper l,imit
[14:01] {_hunterlayne} true
[14:03] {_hunterlayne} I might short NFLX
[14:04] {Threei} why?
[14:04] {fernp} the market is too quiet
[14:05] {Threei} could be quiet before the storm
[14:05] {Threei} or could be taking a breather after yesterday's stunning rally
[14:06] {_hunterlayne} breather
[14:06] {_hunterlayne} what's the most anyone here has made in 1 day
[14:06] {patience} scalping or swing trade
[14:07] {_hunterlayne} scalping
[14:08] {Threei} magoo fell asleep.. or he would have told you some impressive numbers
[14:08] {Threei} he is risk taker though
[14:08] {GeoArb} i would be interested to see the answers :)
[14:08] {patience} i was going to say, used to love watching magoo trade on momo fridays we used to have
[14:08] {magoo} market has long changed
[14:09] {GeoArb} i only saw curtis
[14:09] {GeoArb} you banned him vad?
[14:09] {magoo} we don't get the momo anymore
[14:09] {patience} i agree magoo
[14:09] {Threei} we will
[14:09] {Threei} things go in cycles
[14:09] {magoo} but, since u asked...on BIDU ipo...i scalped 12k in 1 day
[14:09] {_hunterlayne} wow
[14:09] {_hunterlayne} you guys do alot of IPOs?
[14:10] {magoo} no
[14:10] {GeoArb} i am just awed
[14:10] {GeoArb} you touched BIDU IPO
[14:10] {magoo} just happened to be THE ONE
[14:11] {_hunterlayne} what range of prices do your scalps usually consist of?? do you have a set number, or do you take green as much as possible
[14:12] {Threei} huinter... too invloved
[14:12] {Threei} this is not something answered in a framework of room discussion
[14:12] {magoo} laser dcc
[14:12] {_hunterlayne} k, sorry. won't happen again
[14:13] {Threei} nothing to be sorry about :)
[14:13] {Threei} it's just that we have structured system of educational materials
[14:13] {Threei} books, videos, courses
[14:14] {Threei} kind of hard to squeeze their content in QA format here as you sure understand :)

[14:33] {Threei} I'd try it long if it touches .40, retreats, holdsa .30 or so and breaks
[14:33] {markweb} ty

[14:33] {Threei} then breaks
[14:35] {Threei} RIMM starts consolidating closer to 119
[14:35] {Threei} if continues doing this not trying to retreat all the way to 118.5 anymore, break will become a play

[15:30] {Threei} - Inflation pressure is in euro terms, not just dollars.Global demand is driving up price pressures for energy and food.
[15:30] {Threei} - Libor turmoil won't impact liquidity measures. Can't comment on investigation into Libor rates. Needs to learn more on Libor issue.
[15:30] {Threei} - The latest CPI data is encouraging. Doesn't know how long the economic turmoil will last.

[08:41] {Threei} 04/15/08 08:59pm [POZN] FDA approves Treximet (sumatriptan and naproxen sodium) tablets for acute migraine
[08:42] {Onix} Good morning all
[08:42] {Threei} onix :)
[08:43] {Onix} Thanks for all the info Vad
[08:44] {Threei} sure... which info? :)
[08:45] {Onix} All this relevant info that you take the trouble with providing it to us
[08:45] {Threei} oh, news posts
[08:45] {Onix} ya
[08:45] {Threei} it's easy... it crosses the wire, I copy and paste :)
[08:46] {Onix} most excellent!
[08:46] {Threei} just need to know what is significant and what is not
[08:46] {patience} yes vad, but you post the news before it even hits BNN and other financial news
[08:46] {patience} which is very good :)
[08:46] {Onix} yes, what "the market" will react to hey?
[08:46] {patience} gm RT
[08:46] {Threei} patience :)
[08:47] {Onix} gm patience
[08:47] {patience} morning Onix :)
[08:49] {Threei} some of them do have immediate impact
[08:50] {Threei} some are more of "general mood setting" kind
[08:51] {Onix} you think INTC will lift the market the same way today as what GE pulled it down the other day?
[08:51] {Threei} it does so far, the real question is for how long
[08:51] {Threei} we are in strong bear market,
[08:52] {Threei} traders tend to use this kind of positive news followed by upward spike to sell into
[08:52] {Onix} maybe 2 or 3 days or not?
[08:52] {Threei} but rallies in bear market can be extremely brutal
[08:52] {Threei} anyone's guess onix
[08:52] {Threei} could be couple hours
[08:52] {Threei} could be couple days
[08:53] {Threei} market will react on the same news differently depending on current environment
[08:53] {Onix} so true
[08:54] {Threei} I mean... there was time when merely mention that some obscure company established a website would triple stock's price :)
[08:54] {Onix} you mean brutal rallies in the sense that they are up so sharp or that they can fail so sudenly?
[08:54] {Threei} very sharp spike going way beyond what seems to be reasonable
[08:55] {Onix} I see ... where price and volume are way out of whack?
[08:55] {Threei} pretty much
[08:55] {Threei} shorts get too complacent,
[08:55] {Threei} life becomes too easy for them
[08:56] {Threei} so when upward move comes and alarms them
[08:56] {Threei} they go therouhg those same stages long do when bull market comes to a heavy setback
[08:56] {Threei} at some point they get squeezed and start covering, fueling further rise
[08:56] {cosmo} seems so brutal...
[08:57] {Onix} ya, Cramer also mentioned the short squeese last night

[11:37] {Chaeron} naaa you're right
[11:37] {GeoArb} for me... yesterday was all luck....
[11:37] {GeoArb} today i made interesting mistakes
[11:38] {magoo} or..go out in front of crowd and kick first puupy u see
[11:39] {GeoArb} saw .85 JPM call and for some reason saw .75
[11:39] {GeoArb} and entered......
[11:39] {GeoArb} wierd.... need sleep/coffee
[11:39] {GeoArb} saw AMZN call and decide to enter on higher price break...... so got stopped on higher loss...
[11:40] {GeoArb} i guess only experienced chefs should modify recipes
[11:41] {bruce} rimmsky trying to break long here
[11:42] {GeoArb} ok now i am insulted...... not even a measly trout
[11:43] {Threei} we are too nice geo
[11:43] {markweb} JPM news?
[11:43] {GeoArb} SLM?
[11:44] {Threei} JPM
[11:44] {Threei} TO SELL PERPETUAL PREFERRED STOCK - WIRE HEADLINE
[11:45] {markweb} ??? ty
[11:45] {markweb} JPM long?short?side?
[11:51] {Threei} UPDATE: US SENATOR CANTWELL URGES THE FTC TO LAY OUT PLANS TO CURB OIL MARKET SPECULATION BEFORE THE SUMMER DRIVING SEASON BEGINS- under legislation sponsored by the Senator and passed last year, the FTC is required to put a rule in place detailing how it would oversee any alleged oil market speculation or manipulation
[12:01] {Threei} I didn't see the details... but things like this tend to double the price of the very product they intend to regulate
[12:02] {Threei} RIMM is tempting here, right at support
[12:02] {Threei} whether market helps or not is 50/50
[12:03] {Threei} but if it shows stgrength, quick grab with stop under .40 looks worth it
[12:04] {Threei} mark... the more I look at JPM the more I think leave it alone for today
[12:05] {markweb} to late, im stoppped:(
[12:06] {Threei} new high RIMM
[12:06] {magoo} oin .61
[12:07] {Threei} it never lost .50
[12:07] {Threei} so stop under it makes sense for scalpers
[12:08] {markweb} im stopped on JPM
[12:08] {Threei} I am not sujre why you were even in to say honestly
[12:08] {markweb} me to:)
[12:09] {Threei} well desvred stop then :)
[12:09] {markweb} y
[12:09] {Threei} don't trade on impulse... trade on valid setup
[12:09] {Threei} keep stop where chart says
[12:09] {Threei} let market do its thing
[12:09] {Threei} and most important as of this very momnent,
[12:09] {Threei} today and yesterday:
[12:10] {Threei} realize how probabilities work,
[12:10] {Threei} odds are not distribute evenly,
[12:10] {Threei} there are clusters here and there
[12:10] {Threei} so, after two months of trading at winning rate beyond normal, we have two days ofd losing cluaster
[12:11] {Threei} what do you do about that?
[12:11] {Threei} anyone?
[12:11] {GeoArb} ummm not make mistakes like min
[12:11] {GeoArb} mine
[12:11] {Threei} well, that's true for any time :)
[12:12] {Threei} specifically at this point what you do is
[12:12] {Threei} 1. shrug
[12:12] {Threei} 2. keep your stops rteligiously
[12:12] {Chaeron} cut back to smaller shares and take only most probable
[12:12] {GeoArb} i am not sure about smaller shares
[12:12] {Threei} 3. let market work it out and get back into more normal odds distribution phase
[12:12] {Chaeron} I thought #2 was anytime anyway
[12:12] {GeoArb} as keeping decent position on RIMM dug me out today
[12:13] {Threei} chaeron, that's true, but there is one interesting twist to it right now
[12:13] {Threei} when market acts like it does last few days
[12:13] {Threei} it tends to shake you our more often than usual, then continue moving in your favor
[12:13] {Threei} and herein lies the danger
[12:13] {Threei} you seee it a few times, you decide it became new norm\
[12:14] {Threei} and next time you ignore your stop
[12:14] {Chaeron} yeah... noticed
[12:14] {Threei} or widen it beyond your risk tolerance
[12:14] {Threei} worst thing that can happen now is, it works
[12:14] {Threei} your stock returns and makes you a profit
[12:14] {Threei} bad habit gets reinforced
[12:14] {Threei} you start doing it more often
[12:15] {Threei} you know what happens next, right?
[12:15] {markweb} y Vad:(
[12:15] {Threei} if you alresdy know, then change :( to :)
[12:15] {Threei} it means this common mistake is already behind you
[12:16] {Threei} if you already paid for it, you bought the knowledge not to do it again
[12:16] {GeoArb} off to work...need to read vad's advise today... when do you post blog?
[12:16] {GeoArb} chat transcript i mean
[12:17] {Threei} now... if you repeat it... it's whole other problem... it's for a shrink who needs to find out why you like suffering
[12:17] {Threei} after market Geo
[12:17] {GeoArb} ok... TY all bye

[14:01] {Threei} FED'S BEIGE BOOK: 9 DISTRICTS REPORT SLOWING ECONOMIC ACTIVITY, WEAKENED SINCE FEB
- Lending standards tightened and loan demand was down, consumer spending seen softening in most of US
[14:01] {Threei} - Notes input costs up, smaller rises in selling prices

[14:02] {Threei} non event
[14:04] {Threei} FED'S PLOSSER: IT MAY NOT BE A RECESSION, "BUT IT FEELS PRETTY BAD," CLEAR THAT THE ECONOMY HAS SLOWED DRAMATICALLY - Q&A
- Fed must be cautious about the "last resort" role, must be careful not to aggravate boom-bust cycles. The Fed's role is to preserve the functioning of the marketplace.

[08:49] {esemde} morning Vad
[08:49] {Threei} something got corrupted?
[08:49] {esemde} must have
[08:49] {Threei} aside of russian govt I mean
[08:49] {cosmo} i feel so....downloaded....
[08:50] {esemde} and the canadian govt
[08:50] {esemde} cos:)
[08:50] {cosmo} :)
[08:52] {magoo} and the US gov't
[08:53] {esemde} hmmmm...CROX....didn't like those shoes anyway
[08:53] {Threei} no kidding
[08:53] {magoo} AFFX pummeled too
[08:53] {Threei} i was wondering all the time while it traded in 70s
[08:54] {esemde} ya look at that......6 bills down almost
[08:54] {magoo} crox was in the 70's?
[08:54] {dptl} good morning all
[08:54] {Threei} dp :)
[08:54] {Threei} look at daily mags
[08:54] {esemde} dp.......I hate Chilliwack.......you all on the mainland can haveit
[08:54] {Threei} lol
[08:55] {dptl} lol....i hate Chilliwack too
[08:56] {cosmo} is it canned?
[08:56] {cosmo} frozen?
[08:56] {Threei} powder...

[09:05] {cosmo} ugh..
[09:05] {esemde} big question I know
[09:05] {Threei} we rarely do ese... it's rather exception
[09:05] {Threei} only when something xtraordinary happens
[09:06] {cosmo} not since 1999....
[09:06] {Threei} well... that may be an exaggeration :)
[09:06] {Threei} point is, it's not your usual trading
[09:06] {Threei} and there are no rules really
[09:06] {esemde} have got that figured out
[09:07] {esemde} can you even trust what you see....ie FSLR up 8
[09:07] {Threei} fresh big news, someone slept through it and haven't yanked his normally priced offer, you are in luck
[09:07] {Threei} well, it is up 8
[09:07] {esemde} is that an indicator of momentum to come
[09:08] {Threei} no way to know
[09:08] {esemde} hmmmmmm
[09:08] {Threei} can continue, can fade
[09:08] {esemde} point well taken

[09:08] {cosmo} i like to watch
[09:08] {esemde} ok....now thats something i can use
[09:09] {Threei} those big gap ones often consolidate for a while, retreat, sucker in shorts that naively think the very fact of big gap means automatic short
[09:09] {Threei} then break and stage stunning rallies, just continuing making new and new highs against all common sense

[11:57] {Threei} 10:02am [SIGM] Weakness attributed to cautious comments at Robert Bairdmore
[11:57] {magoo} ty
[11:57] {dino} magoo said a few bad things about it too, could be that
[11:57] {Threei} - Baird says SIGM lost a Motorola contract to BRCM and it may lose market share to Samsung
[12:04] {Threei} DPTR
[12:04] {Threei} a bit lost its mind
[12:09] {Threei} anyone knows what possessed BEXP?

[12:27] {Threei} PBR at it again
[12:27] {Threei} no matter how many times they say oil discovery is overestimated, traders say we don't believe you, you are richer than you think
[12:30] {magoo} vad, read on SIGM here?
[12:32] {Threei} 17.50 will be a challenge, but it feels like it's likely to break it
[12:32] {Threei} if it does it should provide a spike for exit
[12:33] {Threei} strenghtened considerably
[12:33] {Threei} I'd be suprised if it fails
[12:33] {Threei} but then again.... no day passes by without suprising me
[12:34] {Threei} early alzheimer helps

[13:18] {Threei} meaningless today to say honestly
[13:19] {Threei} it can cut through that resistance not even noticing it
[13:19] {Threei} or it can drop like tomorrow is never going to come
[13:20] {Threei} some days you just have to admit that there are no playable patterns for your style
[13:20] {Threei} if I had to bet, I'd bet on strong run as next market move
[13:21] {Threei} I just don't want to pish when I am not on top of things
[13:21] {Threei} push
[13:21] {Threei} if I am right, RIMM goes to 115.5 at least

[13:34] {Threei} here is how I see it, if you can get a feel and read, try it
[13:34] {Threei} if not, stay away
[13:35] {Threei} one just needs to know when one is incapable of trading 25 cents for a phone call
[13:37] {Threei} ignore the message, and you will just dig deeper hole
[13:37] {GeoArb} heheheh i already called dave once to get a max loss override (my loss was quite low set thoug)

[13:59] {Threei} will be a lesson for the next time Geo {G}
[13:59] {GeoArb} and off ocurse i didnt take RIMM
[13:59] {Threei} did you have a read on market/RIMM?
[13:59] {GeoArb} no so stayed out
[13:59] {Threei} so everything is fine
[14:00] {GeoArb} :)
[14:00] {Threei} don't trade what you can't read
[14:00] {Threei} and don't expect from anyone (yourself or me) to be profitable each and every day
[14:00] {GeoArb} its the weeks and months that matter to me
[14:00] {Threei} anyone claiming such power is nothing but fraud
[14:01] {Threei} it's not whether you have losing days that matters
[14:01] {Threei} it's how you act on such day and after it
[14:01] {GeoArb} true
[14:02] {bruce} yes 20/20 hndswight dp - cphd was one to hold
[14:02] {bruce} oh well
[14:03] {dptl} ah no greed we've made money on it:)
[14:03] {bruce} exactly
[14:03] {bruce} trying to do moe longer time frame trades when I can see potential
[14:04] {bruce} hard to hold though - scalping instinct is trong from watching trades in this room
[14:05] {dptl} every day is defferent sometimes it's worth to hold sometimes not
[14:05] {judijim} the script should never change as for discipline in all areas. Yesterday was expensive lesson.
[14:05] {dino} sgr stop to .90
[14:05] {Threei} got it back together today jj?
[14:06] {judijim} almost just about even
[14:06] {Threei} that's what really matters
[14:06] {Threei} ability to pick oneself up is what separates men from boys
[14:06] {Threei} don't know how it applies to women and girls
[14:07] {GeoArb} my wife picks on me all the time
[14:07] {Threei} she just keeps you in line
[14:07] {dino} you are correct vad
[14:07] {judijim} I think we're scared money today
[14:08] {GeoArb} ( ok no more smart comments :) I am suppossed to be licking my wounds)

[13:24] {Threei} :)
[13:24] {magoo} negatory
[13:26] {Threei} so, NVDA is the only party-pooper today?
[13:26] {Threei} or there was something else
[13:27] {Chaeron} SOLF
[13:27] {Threei} my attention span is one of a moth
[13:27] {Threei} yes, SOLF
[13:27] {magoo} aapl got me first tradde of day boss..it was quick 1:! and down to the bottom;
[13:28] {Threei} you know how this kind moves at the open...
[13:28] {magoo} no complaints
[13:30] {dino} zion stopped -.32
[13:37] {dino} cedc l .01
[13:45] {dino} clhb s .76
[13:47] {GeoArb} back and tryind to sneak trades at work :D
[13:48] {Threei} tesk tsk tsk
[13:48] {GeoArb} i just want new shoes for my kids.....
[13:49] {Threei} what happened to those you made money fro last week?
[13:49] {GeoArb} wel... air jordans ARE expensive
[13:50] {Threei} those basketball kids...
[14:05] {Threei} interesting junction here
[14:06] {Threei} break of 1805 should bring upward spike and possibly new highs on NQ... breakdown of 1800 has a chance to trigger new decline with new lows
[14:06] {Threei} being in bear market mode still (despite long calls all day) my inclination is down
[14:07] {Threei} but qwe will see
[14:08] {Threei} in case of down, my short candidate would be JPM
[14:08] {Threei} .67 short trigger
[14:08] {Threei} stop .81
[14:09] {magoo} if down..i like rimm as short
[14:09] {Threei} with stop above .50?
[14:10] {magoo} yeah..half lot
[14:10] {magoo} only if IF mkt falls
[14:10] {magoo} if mkt spikes..i like AAPL long
[14:11] {Threei} probably NQ should do couple more shakeouts
[14:18] {GeoArb} anyone in JPM?
[14:19] {Threei} me am or I is - whichever you prefer
[14:20] {GeoArb} me in .67
[14:21] {Chaeron} I'm in too Geo
[14:24] {dino} clhb cov .63,. +.13
[14:28] {Threei} if you want, can trail JPM to .75... matter of personal preference really, chart allows for both trailing it or leaving as it is
[14:28] {Threei} now with new lows trailing makes better sense
[14:34] {magoo} rimm strong
[14:37] {Threei} {---- envisions head of PPT looking at charts, scratching back of his head, thinking out loud: "Time to lean on the Buy Everything in Sight Button or not yet"...
[14:42] {Threei} if JPM makes new lows and hits 1:1 from here, your options:
[14:42] {Threei} 1. take scalp
[14:42] {Threei} 2. trail to .71 and let it trade
[14:43] {Threei} 3. naturally, combination of first two... cover half anf trail the rest
[14:43] {Threei} leaving it to you to make your choice... and not telling what I do
[14:44] {Threei} just out of general noxiousness
[14:44] {magoo} mkt feels like up to magoo
[14:45] {Threei} well, there are cheerleaders behind that PPT chair's back chanting Hit it
[14:45] {GeoArb} i wimped out
[14:45] {GeoArb} its magoo
[14:45] {Threei} where Geo?
[14:46] {Threei} it's at 1:1
[14:46] {GeoArb} .54
[14:46] {Threei} OK :)
[14:46] {magoo} i didn't mean jPM..i stalking AAPL ,ong
[14:46] {GeoArb} ahhhh
[14:46] {Threei} this is valid choice
[14:46] {GeoArb} well if market is up
[14:46] {GeoArb} i am in profit protection mode
[14:46] {Threei} if you bailed out earlier, we would have to have a talk about those time based stops :)
[14:46] {GeoArb} heheheheh
[14:47] {GeoArb} i did that on NVDA....
[14:47] {GeoArb} scratched at even thoug....
[14:47] {GeoArb} had to go to work...
[14:47] {Threei} which, IMO, is euphemism for "Gimmie my instant gratification or I'll throw a fit"
[14:47] {GeoArb} no no... you know my 9:00 limitation
[14:47] {Threei} I know :)
[14:48] {GeoArb} i amde worth monthy subscrption toaday
[14:48] {GeoArb} and am greatfull
[14:48] {GeoArb} wowo... bad typing
[14:48] {Threei} oh, our typing rubs off
[14:48] {Threei} no doubt about that
[14:48] {Threei} look at magoo... he was exemplary typist/speller when came here
[14:49] {Threei} now you can barely understand him
[14:49] {Threei} (of course all tat beer could have played role too)
[14:49] {GeoArb} i thought beer made me handsome
[14:50] {GeoArb} regret on JPM now
[14:50] {Threei} I am not going there
[14:51] {Threei} JPM 1:2 approaching
[14:51] {magoo} confused.where we going?
[14:52] {Chaeron} I am
[14:52] {Threei} lol
[14:52] {Chaeron} as usual
[14:52] {Threei} approaching... approaching...
[14:53] {magoo} confused {again}.....whos approaching??
[14:53] {Threei} sigh
[14:53] {jmb} JPM thanks Vad
[14:53] {Threei} welcome :)
[14:55] {Threei} direct hit 1:2
[14:55] {Chaeron} out?
[14:55] {Chaeron} I'm not
[14:55] {Threei} [14:43] {Threei} leaving it to you to make your choice... and not telling what I do
[14:55] {Threei} [14:44] {Threei} just out of general noxiousness
[14:55] {Chaeron} and for me - obnoxiousness
[14:56] {Threei} seriously... there is no real read on how far this move can go
[14:56] {Threei} it's fully personal preference
[14:57] {Threei} chart has nothing indicative for JMP down to .25
[14:57] {Chaeron} ok... out at .39 +).28... mucho thanks Vad
[14:58] {Threei} welcome

[08:39] {Threei} CEGE
[08:39] {Threei} SEES ENCOURAGING RESULTS IN PHASE I/II TRIAL OF GVAX
- Data from the trial, which enrolled 19 patients, indicate that GVAX immunotherapy for prostate cancer results in a statistically significant increase in median PSA (prostate-specific antigen) doubling time as well as the formation of prostate cancer-associated antibodies in 79 percent of patients who received GVAX immunotherapy.
[08:40] {Threei} *MAR IMPORT PRICE INDEX M/M: 2.8% V 2.0%E; Y/Y: 14.8% V 13.7%E

[08:43] {Threei} yes
[08:43] {Threei} and it looks very encouraging

[09:55] {Threei} APRIL PRELIMINARY UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN CONFIDENCE: 63.2 V 69E
[09:56] {Threei} SNDK is one of those usual suspects, don't necessary have to have some extraordinary event or volume in order to produce readable setup

[12:30] {dptl} :) ok still in
[12:30] {Threei} :)
[12:30] {Threei} really, it's not a matter of predictions
[12:30] {Threei} it's a mttaer of right trade management
[12:30] {dptl} i know:)
[12:30] {Threei} and there is no single right
[12:30] {Threei} your right will be different from my right
[12:31] {Threei} there are firmly defined wrongs though
[12:31] {Threei} I mean... short .09, take profit at .07 while keeping stop at .35... that's WRONG
[12:31] {Threei} (ain't I master of obvious)
[12:32] {magoo} uh vad...if u both are standing together looking the same way....isn't his right your right?
[12:32] {Threei} no... I refuse to share my right with anyone else
[12:33] {magoo} see, i caught .11 w/2500 sh and ut .os
[12:33] {magoo} .02
[12:33] {Threei} and that's you unalienable right
[12:33] {Threei} your
[12:33] {magoo} even if i am staring at u??
[12:33] {magoo} i confused on left right thingy
[12:34] {Threei} isn't it impolite to stare?
[12:34] {magoo} is it in your book?
[12:34] {Threei} here is what will help
[12:34] {magoo} as i run
[12:34] {magoo} for cover
[12:35] {Threei} when in Tzarist Russia army was formed out of illiterature peasans
[12:35] {Threei} they have troubles teaching them marching because they never knew right from left
[12:35] {Threei} here is the method commanders came up with:
[12:36] {Threei} they placed piece of hay on left shoulder of each soldier
[12:36] {Threei} and piece of straw on the right shoulder
[12:36] {Threei} and changed commands to Hay! Straw!
[12:36] {Threei} that was what peasans understood and could tell from each other
[12:37] {Threei} (curious history lessons come as complementary service with stock calls and trading education at RealityTrader)
[12:39] {Threei} did I put you all to sleep?
[12:40] {hawkfan4} lol
[12:40] {magoo} is that true?
[12:40] {Threei} yes
[12:41] {magoo} in college..military history course
[12:41] {Threei} till these days, hay-straw is used as idiom, to tell someone that he is illiterature
[12:41] {Threei} although not many know where it originated from
[12:41] {magoo} said russo peasant troops had no knowledge of indoor plumbing
[12:42] {magoo} when invaded germany, thought u could ram a pipe in any wall anywhere and gt water
[12:43] {Threei} ummm
[12:43] {Threei} you mean it's not so?
[12:46] {magoo} i dunno..go try it right now at your home
[12:46] {Threei} I don't have very many walls, remember?
[12:47] {Threei} http://www.realitytrader.com/vad/h.jpg
[12:47] {magoo} ah yes

[13:11] {Laserdave1} Vad does that as well
[13:11] {Laserdave1} stares aimlessly into the screen awaiting my arrival
[13:12] {Threei} that's actually the only thing I am focused on
[13:12] {Laserdave1} lol
[13:15] {Chaeron} nothing to look forward to now Vad for another 72 hours....
[13:15] {Laserdave1} i am rather curious
[13:15] {Threei} yeah chaeron... bleak time
[13:15] {Laserdave1} if we were in an office in the same city and physically going there
[13:16] {Laserdave1} when i arrived would i still get hit with trout?
[13:16] {Threei} you would smell like fish 24/7 dave

[13:16] {Laserdave1} it sure did
[13:20] {dino} fwiw, i throw dead fish everyday at magoo
[13:20] {dino} so it's the norm
[13:30] {Threei} how does it affect him?
[13:30] {Threei} if at all
[13:32] {bruce} improves his smell vad
[13:32] {Threei} NVDA decided to make dp miserable
[13:32] {Threei} lol beruce
[13:32] {Threei} bruce
[13:33] {dptl} yeah i see that oh well....
[13:33] {dptl} did you short agys yet?

[13:51] {Threei} OK, for those who are bored
[13:51] {dino} y
[13:51] {Threei} just got it in e-mail and took me all 45 seconds with calculator to asnwer
[13:52] {Threei} so let's see how room math abilities look
[13:52] {Threei} This is a 5th grade math problem. If you can't stand word math problems, just delete now. If you can open the spreadsheet, you'll see it's a very small list of people who have gotten the correct number. This is not a trick question. This is a real math problem so don't say that a bus has no legs.
[13:52] {Threei} There are 7 girls in a bus.
[13:52] {Threei} Each girl has 7 backpacks.
[13:52] {Threei} In each backpack, there are 7 big cats.
[13:52] {Threei} For every big cat there are 7 little cats.
[13:52] {Threei} Question: How many legs are there in the bus?
[13:53] {Threei} I am not about to mail you all that excel spreadsheet, so just give me your answers :)
[13:53] {markweb} 14
[13:53] {dptl} 14+28

[10:36] {dino} sm s apol .08
[10:37] {magoo} vad...is NKTR valifd still?
[10:37] {dino} stopped apol .21, -.13
[10:38] {Threei} it did lose support... but still feels like hasd a chance
[10:38] {Threei} let's re-shape it a bit
[10:38] {Threei} let's use .60 as a support for stop placement
[10:38] {magoo} well..is it a dog w/fleas?
[10:38] {Threei} if it breaks .70 take it with .59 stop
[10:39] {Threei} damage will be minimized
[10:39] {dino} np mark
[10:39] {Threei} it did consolidate above .60 for a while
[10:40] {Threei} it's in damage control mode, with new announcements; .70 is yesterday's high, and Cramer's "it's worth zero" don't materialize so far... so there is a potential for a squeeze
[10:41] {Threei} with 12-15 cents stop, I am up to give it a shot
[10:46] {dino} ctrp not moving tighten to .79
[10:49] {dino} ctrp stopped -.21

Apr 09 2008

Session Time: Wed Apr 09 00:00:00 2008

[08:09] {Threei} FED IS CONSIDERING CONTINGENCY PLANS TO EXPAND LENDING POWER IF STEPS TO DATE UNSUCCESSFUL - FED OFFICIAL
[08:16] {Threei} (Thomson News) The subprime crisis and its "collective bankruptcy" is not over and the framework of whole financial system, of which the rules were either "not respected," or "not strict enough" is to blame, OECD secretary general Angel Gurria said in an interview.
[08:16] {Threei} "The whole institutional chain, so well oiled, all this sophistication, which was yesterday the pride of the authorities, is to blame for this collective bankruptcy," he told the newspaper in an interview.
[08:16] {Threei} Gurria said: "The billions of dollars in losses are hallucinating. And it is not finished!" He pointed his finger at "the banks, the investment funds, intermediaries, the credit rating agencies, the insurers."
[08:17] {Threei} On Tuesday the International Monetary Fund estimated that what it termed the collective failure surrounding the US subprime home-loan crisis would cost the international financial system $945 billion.
[08:33] {Threei} NKTR
[08:33] {Threei} TERMINATES ALL NEGOTIATIONS WITH POTENTIAL PARTNERS FOR INHALED INSULIN; INCREASED NUMBER OF LUNG CANCER CASES OBSERVED IN ONGOING CLINICAL STUDIES OF INHALED INSULIN PATIENTS-Ceased all negotiations with potential partners for its inhaled insulin programs as a result of new data analysis from ongoing clinical trials conducted by Pfizer Inc. An increase in the number of new cases of lung cancer was observed in inhaled insulin patients as compared to the control group.
[08:37] {magoo} morning
[08:37] {Threei} magoo :)
[08:41] {Onix} Good morning all
[08:43] {hawkfan4} good morning
[08:43] {Threei} onix, hawk :)
[08:51] {magoo} amag pouinded vad, news?
[08:52] {Threei} downgrade to sell by Merrill Lynch
[08:53] {GeoArb} gm all
[08:53] {Threei} geo :)
[08:54] {Threei} solars strength (again)
[08:54] {cosmo} AMAG has compitition fears..
[08:54] {Threei} NKTR getting gutted
[08:58] {magoo} UPS

[09:01] {cosmo} UPS drivers need to make more right turns, and less left turns...
[09:02] {Threei} IMF ISSUE REPORT ON GLOBAL GROWTH- US likely to enter mild recession in 2008
[09:06] {Threei} today is kind of defining day for the market
[09:06] {fernp} gm
[09:06] {Threei} fernp :)
[09:07] {patience} yesterday was second lowest volume day of the year...would be nice to have some momo
[09:07] {Threei} if we hold roughly 1840 NQ support and close in green on improving volume, another "against the common sense rally" is likelt to start
[09:08] {Threei} yes... that unusually low volume was what put me on alert re: downtrend continuation
[09:08] {Threei} along the line of thinking: we sell down too shallowly and on too lttle volume on what reads as worst news ever
[09:10] {Threei} critical range lies between 1840 and 1900
[09:11] {Threei} we hold 1840, approach to 1900 and break it with better volume - I really don't see anything to keep the market from going to 2000
[09:11] {Threei} pains me to say this... but that's what charts say
[09:12] {Threei} it's all conditional of course (as it always is in trading)
[09:12] {Threei} we lose 1840 and volume picks up - downside is big
[09:17] {Threei} REMINDER: FED CHAIRMAN BERNANKE TO SPEAK ON FINANCIAL LITERACY AT 9:30AMET- there will be a prepared text; no Q&A is expected.

[10:10] {dino} wbsn topped around 20.12 last time lets see'
[10:12] {Threei} DRIV stop to .34
[10:12] {Threei} it held well, now want it to break .60 for us to trail stop a bit closer

[10:15] {Threei} JACO...
[10:16] {esemde} now I know that I have read to many books on the market but this little tidbit may come in handy
[10:17] {bruce} len consolidating at double bottom dino
[10:17] {esemde} if the NAZ forms a V bottom instead of a
[10:17] {esemde} head and shoulders botom
[10:17] {esemde} it's a powerful up signal
[10:18] {esemde} Vad have you ever found that too be true?
[10:18] {Threei} not really
[10:18] {Threei} bottoms come in all forms and shapes (and first who tries to assign any other meaning to it that market bottoms get trouted)
[10:18] {esemde} point well taken.....thats why i've signed on too your trading room...
[10:18] {Threei} look at NQ daily
[10:18] {Threei} we have:
[10:19] {Threei} 1.double bottom, formed by lows at 03/10 and 03/17
[10:19] {Threei} 2. inverted cup and handle failure if you add 01/23
[10:20] {Threei} 3. inverted head and shoulder in the making
[10:20] {dino} spr bstop to .80
[10:20] {Threei} and all these patterns sxay the same thing: bottom is in
[10:20] {Threei} and you know what?
[10:21] {esemde} what
[10:21] {Threei} all this will be next to zero in value if there is no follow through
[10:21] {magoo} yep..feels like it is
[10:21] {Threei} any pattern works until it doesn't
[10:21] {dino} cov .78, +.22, reverse slip
[10:21] {GeoArb} comeon vad
[10:22] {Threei} double bottom - is it reversal pattern or just a part of inverted cup and handle in progress?
[10:22] {esemde} gotcha...........
[10:22] {GeoArb} i came here for the superlicious pattern
[10:22] {Threei} same can be said about any of them,
[10:22] {Threei} they all are not predictors,
[10:22] {Threei} they instruct us how to act
[10:22] {Threei} but do not predict outcome.
[10:22] {Threei} so, we go with those patterns that we can read and are comfortable with,
[10:23] {GeoArb} RSH breakdown?
[10:23] {Threei} put stops in place
[10:23] {Threei} and wait for the market to resolve the trade.
[10:23] {dino} nice read ntrs bruce

[11:03] {Threei} overextend credit without proper valuation of collateral, flood the market with derivatives securitizing that dubious credit, overleverage trading in those dubious securities - and you have financial crisis in the making no matter how well underlyiong economy is doing
[11:03] {magoo} aapl wants 153 RISKY..needs mkt
[11:06] {esemde} Volcker is nuts....he's got it backwards......
[11:07] {dino} rekclov?

[11:07] {Threei} and you have not just crisis but borderline catastrophe
[11:08] {esemde} stoke the inflation fires.......
[11:08] {esemde} and then they do something to quell inflation...weird...it's like a make work project to create a job for themselves
[11:10] {Threei} - Says US can not inflate its way out of current economic problems, warns against complacency on inflation
[11:10] {esemde} although....if i had that money printing machine......now that would be a different story

[12:30] {dino} we're only down 62
[12:30] {dino} icge
[12:30] {dino} nah
[12:31] {Threei} size of drop is not impressive, tru
[12:31] {Threei} but we are under important support
[12:31] {Threei} if we do not get back over it, it could signal beginning of unraveling
[12:32] {Threei} this is the reason for my lessened activity
[12:32] {Threei} I don't want to take longs facing possible sharp selloff,
[12:33] {Threei} and sharts as a continuation haven't really worked lately as interventions propped market right back up
[12:33] {Threei} sharts = shorts

[12:44] {magoo} they were the colored hanes briefs
[12:44] {dino} you need to rent that movie
[12:47] {Threei} market really froze
[12:47] {Threei} no way to tell what happens next

[14:43] {Threei} FED'S FISHER: HE IS 'NOT AGAINST' CUTTING RATES, PREFERS WORKING ON LIQUIDITY MEASURES, CUTTING RATES RISKS INFLATION - Q&A COMMENTS
- Notes demand for energy, food, ethanol pushing up prices, inflationary impulses are different today
[14:43] {Threei} - Says Fed rate cuts not having intended effect, and fears inflation will rise as economy rebounds, efficiency of rate cuts is questionable
[14:43] {Threei} - Notes money supply measures 'pretty stout' recently
[14:43] {Threei} - Adds that weak period in the economy may be longer than expected
[14:43] {Threei} - Expects c
[14:44] {Threei} - Expects changes in Fed oversight of institutions that borrow from it; Notes that if the Fed is lending money to an institution, Fed needs to have information about that firm
[14:44] {Threei} novelty concept eh?
[14:55] {Threei} ESLR failed

[15:27] {Chaeron} well magoo, see what happens when I miss RIMM?
[15:27] {Threei} we need to pay him to stay away from it, mags
[15:28] {Chaeron} a %age?
[15:28] {Threei} that's how I understand what he is hinting at
[15:28] {Chaeron} I really wasn't
[15:28] {Threei} yeah yeah
[15:28] {Chaeron} just double up on the ones I miss
[15:28] {Threei} and send you half
[15:28] {Chaeron} you keep insisting....

[15:36] {Chaeron} nice job Threei
[15:37] {Chaeron} sad I missed
[15:37] {Threei} yeah, that eas rare chance to play this stock with such tight stop at such favorable moment
[15:37] {Threei} GOOG/YHOO gave some enthusiasm to the market sitting at the low
[15:38] {Threei} and RIMM mercifully waited for us to enter
[15:38] {Threei} instead of just spiking right away with those
[15:38] {magoo} out some more .43
[15:39] {Threei} you may remember yesterday's play on RIMM, for a nice gain as well
[15:40] {Threei} but honestly, that one was more of luck
[15:40] {Threei} RIMM wasn't obeying yesterday to the degree that would allow me to take credit
[15:40] {Threei} this one is deserved profit
[15:40] {Threei} ideal conditions for entry
[15:42] {magoo} aall that paper trading
[15:42] {Threei} was worth it eh?
[15:43] {Threei} to take a buck or not
[15:44] {magoo} out .62 rest
[15:44] {magoo} TY
[15:44] {Threei} welcome sir

[15:44] {Threei} yeah
[15:45] {magoo} where a reload ?
[15:45] {magoo} .33?
[15:45] {Threei} mostly because I am not likely to take any more trades today
[15:45] {Threei} gotta entertain myself for 15 more minutes
[15:45] {Threei} I've no idea mgs
[15:45] {Threei} why do you need it really
[15:47] {magoo} greed
[15:48] {Threei} well
[15:48] {Chaeron} and to pay my %age
[15:48] {Threei} look at it this way
[15:48] {Threei} you got a dollar gain with about 15 cents risk
[15:48] {Threei} very volatile stock on a very tough day
[15:48] {Threei} is there any necessity to go to the well once too many?
[15:55] {Threei} ok... out last portion
[15:55] {Threei} enough is enough
[15:55] {Threei} thank you all
[15:55] {Threei} have a good evening, see you tomorrow

[14:11] {Threei} - FOMC says calibrating policy was 'difficult', noting monetary policy alone can not fully address the problems in housing and financial markets.
[14:11] {Threei} - the dissenters, Plosser and Fisher, favored less aggressive cut; Fisher wanted to target liquidity.
[14:11] {Threei} - On March 10, some Fed officials raised concerns about the TSLF precedent.

[09:28] {markweb} np
[09:28] {fernp} y
[09:28] {cosmo} head on raven :)
[09:28] {esemde} how do you get this by clicking on the #floor?
[09:28] {Raven}
3 right on, cosmo
[09:29] {Threei} yes ese
[09:29] {Threei} you can't reply there Geo
[09:29] {GeoArb} k
[09:29] {dino} saddle-up
[09:29] {Threei} #floor is blocked for members posting, to keep it uncluttered
[09:29] {esemde} whats suppose to happen...am clicking on it and nothing happens
[09:29] {bruce} bap as possible long reversal candidate dino
[09:29] {Threei} just read what's posted there ese
[09:30] {magoo} i got it.sigh
[09:30] {dino} not enough bruce
[09:30] {dino} -2.50 looking for
[09:31] {dino} you looking at yesterday, i see
[09:31] {Threei} LEHMAN SEES ANOTHER $100B IN GLOBAL FINANCIAL WRITE-DOWNS
[09:32] {bruce} yuppers 5 buck ranges
[09:32] {esemde} got it
[09:32] {esemde} tks
[09:33] {bruce} jaso looks like like prospect vad
[09:34] {dino} watching uthr again, was pretty good to us yesterday
[09:34] {Threei} FSLR makes new highs
[09:34] {Threei} so looks like sector is trying once again
[09:34] {dino} cramer pumping it
[09:35] {dino} apol spike
[09:35] {Threei} general market weakness keeps me hesitant for now though
[09:37] {magoo} CISQ has been the better performer out of solf..csun
[09:38] {Threei} ENER half lot long .90
[09:38] {Threei} stop under .60
[09:38] {Threei} with any help should take 33 and spike for exit
[09:38] {esemde} COCO....
[09:39] {Threei} with aggressive entry stop would be under .40
[09:39] {Threei} market is still weak
[09:41] {Threei} if NQ spikes upward, better get it ENER aggressively, buying .90 is questionable idea if it spikes sharply into resistance
[09:41] {esemde} COCO going nuts ...up 17%
[09:42] {esemde} make that 19%
[09:42] {esemde} nowhere to get in???
[09:42] {Threei} 09:41am [SLM] Update: education related stocks higher after Senator Kennedy last night announced a proposal for increasing US student loan limits(related: APOL COCO DV ESI FMD NNI )
[09:42] {dino} apol nuts too, education
[09:42] {dino} cpla
[09:43] {esemde} ahhhhhhhh.....that explains it
[09:43] {dino} ofix blood
[09:44] {esemde} look at it go .....up 25%
[09:49] {magoo} nice read ENER vad..i just never felt the entry
[09:50] {GeoArb} in .91
[09:51] {magoo} ENER?
[09:51] {GeoArb} y
[09:51] {magoo} [09:41] {Threei} if NQ spikes upward, better get it ENER aggressively, buying .90 is questionable idea if it spikes sharply into resistance
[09:51] {GeoArb} heheheh
[09:51] {GeoArb} ummm NQ didnt spike:)
[09:52] {magoo} i was thinking entry off .50 area
[09:52] {magoo} exit .91
[09:53] {GeoArb} lots of offers on 33
[09:54] {Threei} that's what should serve as a springboard for it if taken
[09:55] {dino} sm l ofix .00
[09:58] {Threei} 9.35 half lot long COC if holding above .20
[10:00] {dino} stopped -.75

[10:18] {Threei} hi jj
[10:18] {Threei} please look at the #floor
[10:24] {judijim} thanks saw the change, seamless, smooth transition, that would be a first!
[10:24] {Threei} hehe
[10:26] {judijim} cnbc just discussing put back the uptick rule? How bad is that for scalpers?
[10:26] {Threei} we lived with it for many years
[10:26] {dino} balxn stopped -.37
[10:26] {Threei} it was canceled relatively recently
[10:26] {GeoArb} well nasdaq crashed with uptick rule in place :)
[10:27] {Threei} yeah
[10:27] {Threei} it's meaningless
[10:27] {bruce} makes sense - market downticking - so blame scalpersand make it tougher for them toshort
[10:27] {Threei} never changed anything in a sense of protecting the market
[10:27] {GeoArb} MEE nice
[10:28] {dino} agree meaningless
[10:28] {judijim} OK we feel better
[10:28] {dino} why not a downtick rule on longs then? lol
[10:30] {dino} cpla stopped .15, +.25

[10:37] {esemde} Dark Vader
[10:37] {dino} indeed, however magoo like jabba the hut
[10:38] {dino} bid bruce?
[10:40] {judijim} investors need rationalization and someone to blame, market should just go up for them.
[10:41] {bruce} been watching it dino - don't have a directional bias for it at moment
[10:41] {dino} l bid .44, stop lod
[10:41] {bruce} I think investors should just blame their brokers judi
[10:43] {dino} i blame magoo

[09:50] {Threei} almost all names in green are solars
[09:50] {esemde} Vad would you leave ESLR for the day or sell on Euphoria

[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"

[12:57] {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

[13:13] {dino} was watchoing it at lunch
[13:13] {bruce} k
[13:13] {bruce} joyg spiking
[13:13] {dino} rick, ugh

[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

[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

[15:13] {bruce} yes -
[15:13] {dino} strange tho, something off w/it
[15:14] {bruce} theres strong support on daily at 30 - so if it does continue down short term bottom is likely near
[15:14] {Threei} LEH probably worth a try short close to 44
[15:15] {bruce} maybe best to wait dino - with 30 this close good chance it will get sucked down to there
