[10:22] {magoo} rread RIMM vad?

[10:26] {Threei} yeah, too many predictors
[10:26] {JohnK} we are the market
[10:27] {Threei} everyione is a prophet
[10:27] {Threei} let me be one of not many who says:
[10:27] {Threei} I have no idea when this rally ends
[10:27] {Threei} I will trade what I see, day by day
[10:27] {jfjf64} boy oh boy amsc
[10:28] {ese} naz basically has another 150 pts to go....the way i see it technicaly
[10:28] {ese} but who knows
[10:28] {Threei} all those predictions and prophets... they throw their forecasts out there, and if something works they tout it
[10:29] {Threei} if it doesn't, they conviniently forget all about it
[10:30] {jfjf64} took 1.00 out of it guess sd be happy

[10:36] {Threei} offering the balance .20
[10:36] {wulff} had a hard stop for HGSI at .50, close one
[10:37] {JohnK} I thought that .6 had invalidated that RIMM call
[10:37] {jfjf64} 1/2 out half
[10:37] {Threei} 1 cent under on a sharp spike down?
[10:37] {Threei} not something to impact such volatile one as RIMM

[12:44] {Threei} if you went for RIMM, 1:1 was reached
[12:44] {_matt} genz read?
[12:44] {Threei} if not... why do yuo ask me about BRCM, to have another comment to ignore? {G}
[12:45] {Threei} GENZ is rather short
[12:45] {Threei} with stop above 56.10
[12:45] {Threei} but it's like 51/49
[12:46] {Threei} anyway, BRCM is rather no play at all
[12:46] {_matt} I was thinking 56.10 break
[12:46] {_matt} with 55.99 stop
[12:46] {Threei} which would be an invalidation of that short, thus legitimate long
[12:50] {patel} AKAM is like a rollercoaster
[12:50] {Threei} only very small one
[12:50] {patel} yup
[12:51] {Threei} like you go through its swings with your eyes only, not with whole body, lol
[12:52] {nemo} so, the spins when you're really drunk?
[12:52] {_matt} is akam one that you are familar with?
[12:53] {nemo} yep
[12:54] {Threei} we uaed to play it now and then if that's wat you mean
[12:55] {patel} good thing is we might get through the lunchtime slowdown
[12:55] {_matt} yes
[12:55] {patel} threei, what has your experience beenw hen a stock like AKAM is acting this way. Does it work out good for you in the end?
[12:55] {Threei} Preview: Treasury's $28B 7-year note auction results due out just after 1pmET
[12:55] {Threei} - $28B is a $1B increase from the June auction
[12:55] {Threei} - prior bid-to-cover was 2.82 pushing the average of the first 5 auctions since the Feb $22B relaunch up to 2.40
[12:55] {Threei} - indirect bidders took 67.2% of competitive bids at last auction, while 13.2% was alloted at the high
[12:55] {Threei} - the When Issued currently yields 3 basis points above the cash maket at 3.38%
[12:56] {Threei} I don't think you can generalize it like this
[12:56] {Threei} some work, some don't
[12:56] {nemo} put tbt and tlt on your screens :)
[12:57] {Threei} you can get stopped and think why didn't I dump it when it stalled for so long
[12:57] {Threei} or you may dump it and then watch it rocketing and think why did I ever sell it, it never tagged my stop
[12:58] {Threei} attempts to outguess the market and avoid all undesirable outcomes are akin to attempts to trade with no losses
[12:58] {Threei} which is is a pipe dream
[12:59] {Threei} AAPL Reportedly researchers have found a security vulnerability in Apple iPhone that allows hacker to take over the handset by sending an SMS message to the phone
[12:59] {Threei} oh good
[12:59] {jfjf64} l jpm .72
[12:59] {Threei} if I stick to electornic cigarette, will I ever see a day when hackers take it over?
[13:01] {nemo} they must have liked the auction, tbt just tanked
[13:01] {Threei} TREASURY'S $28B 7-YEAR NOTE AUCTION BID-TO-COVER RATIO: 2.63 V 2.82 PRIOR AND 2.40 OVER THE LAST FIVE
[13:02] {jfjf64} 1/1 out
[13:02] {Threei} indirect bidders take 62.5% of competitive bids

[13:35] {_matt} is hig a call that you are going to trade?
[13:37] {Threei} I don't understand matt
[13:37] {Threei} you like - you take
[13:37] {Threei} what does it matter to you who else is going to do it?
[13:38] {magoo} sheesh..give new kid a break lol
[13:39] {Threei} did you get any?
[13:39] {magoo} now if that was nemo.well
[13:39] {Threei} and look how well you turned out, my son
[13:39] {magoo} whats it matter if i got any HIG?
[13:40] {_matt} trying to clarify if they are trades that you are calling or answering question like when I asked about genz
[13:40] {Threei} I get it... I just am not sure why it matters :)
[13:41] {Threei} ultimately, any trade decision comes to individual choice
[13:41] {Threei} either you like the trade, it fits in your prfoile so to speak,
[13:41] {Threei} your objectives, risk tolerance etc
[13:42] {Threei} type of the movement
[13:42] {Threei} or not
[13:42] {dino} the vad "disclaimer", :)
[13:42] {Threei} it matters not whether someone else goes for it or not
[13:42] {_matt} from your website i know you go over a certain thought process and am just learning
[13:42] {Threei} in trading there is no reward for being part of the group or being against the group
[13:43] {_matt} the tendancies of your trading style while developing my own
06[13:43] * magoo slaps laserdave around a bit with a large trout
[13:43] {Threei} yes.. but the thought process is the same whether stock came up on a scanner, or someone asked abotu it or I stumbled over it while surfing through usual suspects
[13:43] {Threei} all of that serves as just an initial point,
[13:43] {Threei} stock is being brought to attention
[13:44] {Threei} Then it's just a chart evaluation
[13:44] {Threei} all sources are equal except one:
[13:44] {_matt} and you normally do not trade when the market is sideways, so if this is a call then i can further understand how you trade
[13:44] {Threei} when magoo brings a stock to my atention I tend to lower my odds {G}
[13:45] {Threei} let's say, I am more picky
[13:45] {Threei} less aggressive
[13:45] {magoo} that does really does it...............
[13:45] {Threei} doesn't mean I don't trade at all
06[13:45] * magoo slaps Threei around a bit with a large trout
[13:46] {Threei} you could notice I decrease activity when morning rush is over
[13:47] {_matt} definitely, the reason why I am curious about hig is because the market strength and a possible formation of cup and handle because of that
[14:07] {jfjf64} s amex .46 trigger here
[14:22] {jfjf64} out amex even
[14:24] {jfjf64} vad tk read ggc anythin
[14:26] {jfjf64} crazy spread
[14:29] {Threei} shrug
[14:30] {jfjf64} what all in coma
[14:30] {Threei} GGC is certainly not the stock to make me come out of coma
[14:33] {Threei} AKAM... is it for real... or am I dreaming
[14:34] {jfjf64} go bk to sleep
[14:35] {Threei} ok... but I am out AKAM

[15:10] {patel} yes i defiintely wont
[15:10] {patel} they took me out at 16.14
[15:11] {Threei} I looked. It hurt.
[15:12] {Threei} as jf would say, sd hv listnd to u
[15:22] {Threei} LVS and MGM move independently of market
[15:23] {Threei} my guess was they followed WYNN, but no, not really
[15:29] {Threei} maybe bounce scalp worthy off .20
[15:34] {Threei} WYNN Wedbush Morgan Cuts WYNN to Hold from Buy (timing uncertain
[15:35] {Threei} shrug
[15:35] {Threei} killjoy
