06[10:47] * nemo slaps Threei around a bit with a large dose of reality

[10:47] {dino} thought justice was supposed to be blind

[10:48] {nemo} thus the blindfold on the statue

[10:48] {Threei}  funny thing is... in USSR, especially in early years, the most important thing defining person's standing was "proletarian origin"

[10:49] {Threei}  one had to have parents from working class in order to be a "valuable member of society"

[10:49] {ese} hmmmmmm

[10:49] {Threei}  hearing all this drivel now about how great it is that she is from working class... can help but wonder

May 26 2009

The market slept through the most of the day but while it did something we were able to extract our few profitable trades with just one stop. Quite a consolidation near the top after initial morning spike...

Session Time: Tue May 26 00:00:00 2009

[08:12] {pita} hola

[08:13] {Threei}  Good morning

[08:15] {Threei}  Quite an interesting dichotomy... nuclear missile test, you would normally expect gold up, ESD down

[08:15] {Threei}  just opposite happens so far

[08:18] {Threei}  Baltic Dry Bulk Index +5.6%, 17th straight increase

[08:19] {Threei}  CYTK

[08:19] {Threei}  Cytokinetics Inc Receives $50M due to Amgen Exercise of Option for Exclusive License to cardiac contractility Program That Includes CK-1827452

[08:19] {Threei}  - Amgen has exercised its option to obtain an exclusive license, worldwide (excluding Japan), to Cytokinetics'' cardiac contractility program. The license includes CK-1827452, a novel cardiac myosin activator being developed for the treatment of heart failure

[08:19] {pita} Why DRYS not following that closer?  Makes no sense to me.

[08:19] {Threei}  yeah... something company specific is in play

[08:20] {Threei}  shares dilution for instance

[08:20] {pita} still having effect?

[08:20] {Threei}  who knows

[08:20] {pita} yeah

[08:21] {Threei}  although EGLE is not exactly soaring either

[08:21] {pita} got killed on DRYS last week

[08:21] {Threei}  tried to hold it?

[08:21] {pita} y

[08:22] {Threei}  price action vs information...

[08:22] {Threei}  trade what you see, not what you think

[08:22] {pita} I heard that somewhere...

[08:24] {pita} lessons are painful

[08:26] {pita} where is INTC going?

[08:27] {Threei}  so far stays in place...

[08:28] {Threei}  loss of 15 is looking rather good for short

[08:47] {Threei}  CYTK is holding near 3

[08:57] {cosmo} hmmm ...pharacuticals maybe

[08:57] {cosmo} MAPP cures migraines...

[08:58] {Threei}  is it a hybrid of pharaons and pharmas?

[08:58] {cosmo} biotech then

[08:59] {Threei}  MAP Pharmaceuticals Phase III trial of LEVADEX migraine product candidate meets all four primary endpoints; shows statistical significance

[08:59] {Threei}  - Total of 792 patients were included in the primary data analysis as specified in the protocol of the FREEDOM-301 study, which was conducted under a Special Protocol Assessment agreement with the U.S. FDA. The patient population studied had more severe migraine pain than expected, with 46% reporting severe pain and 54% reporting moderate pain prior to administration of the study drug.

[09:28] {nemo} magus

[09:28] {magoo} news FSLR vad?

[09:28] {magoo} down 9

[09:29] {Threei}  First Solar Inc. Shares cut to Underperform from Market Perform at FBR, PT $110.00

[09:29] {Threei}  Action on the back of:

[09:29] {Threei}  - Polysilicon prices taking a nose dive. Checks over the past week suggest (quality) spot poly prices have declined to $65/kg, down 35% year to date

[09:29] {Threei}  - Recent checks indicate at least one of FSLR top customers has already switched from FSLR to a si-based module vendor for a project that is currently under construction.

[09:29] {Threei}  Checks also suggest six inch solar wafer prices (in the spot market) have declined to US$3.50/piece, implying that finished solar wafers are now { US$1/watt. Assuming US$0.80/watt for turning wafers into modules, we estimate $65/kg poly to yield modules at a cost of US$1.60-US$1.80/watt. And even a rather aggressive GM of 20% implies si-based manufacturers could sell modules at US$2.10 (or EUR1.62, assuming 1.3 F/X) and compete head-to-head with FSLR

[11:48] {nemo} or anti-communist

[11:49] {nemo} Comrades, you are sick...to the re-education camps

[11:49] {dino} somebody has to stand up for the law

[11:50] {ese} what law dino

[11:50] {nemo} question mark ese

[11:51] {ese} ?

[11:51] {Threei}  nemo is english teacher in past life

[11:51] {nemo} no..just obnoxious in this one

[11:51] {ese} man i'm like eh muscian eh....

[11:52] {Threei}  nemo... I have bad news for you

[11:52] {nemo} like an egyptian

[11:52] {nemo} fine

[11:52] {ese} would seem to mean the bond holders are in no positon to bargain......no?

[11:52] {Threei}  I realize you enjoyt being obnoxious... but you can't, not in the room

06[11:52] * nemo crawls into cave

06[11:52] * nemo closes door

[11:52] {Threei}  it's strictly my privilege to be obnoxious here

[11:52] {dino} they are primary secured, there is a law here

06[11:52] * nemo pulls blanket over head

[11:53] {ese} true

[11:53] {Threei}  I sometimes can tolerate competition for the title of captain obvious

06[11:53] * nemo covers ears

[11:53] {Threei}  but obnoxious? no way

[11:53] {ese} wouldn't the question be...secured against what?......taxpayer money now isn't it?

[11:54] {ese} basically your money dino....don't know the situation well...am i wrong?

[11:54] {nemo} yes ese...but they must be pissed considering all the bondholders in the "too big to fail banks" have been protected

[11:54] {ese} hmmmmmk

[11:55] {dino} ity will end up in supreme court, they are secured, they should get parts of company, they are in front of govt and unions by law, years from now in court because govt will screw them

[11:55] {dino} obama reminds me of chavez, taking what he wants for govt

[11:56] {ese} ah ok.....didn't know that.....they have priority over gov't

[11:56] {dino} basic contract law here

[11:56] {Threei}  but dino... he read Chavez's book

[11:56] {nemo} it's not government ese

[11:56] {nemo} yeah, as Dino says

[11:56] {nemo} bondholders are first in line for corporate assets

[11:57] {dino} common, then preferred, then bondholders, they are the roots of the tree

[11:57] {dino} common and preferred no securitization

[11:59] {dino} but enough. obama will do what he wants courts will fine the govt 5 years from now, after the bondholders get screwed and possile wiped out. remember, many muni's invested in these gm bonds, as well as pension funds

[12:00] {ese} ya...i understand the tree roots for sure....i just thought that some special circmstances had applied here

[12:00] {dino} ceph lod

[12:01] {dino} no, it is the law of usa for hundreds of years

[12:02] {dino} think of a house mortgage, secured by house. govt can't just give your house to someone w/o paying off the bank

[12:02] {nemo} government wants to give GM to UAW without paying the bondholders

[12:02] {dino} wynn app. lod

[12:03] {dino} right nemo, thats the problem, the bondholders own certain parts 

[12:03] {nemo} but the unions elected Obama

[12:03] {dino} talk about buying votes for an election, i will give the auto industry to you unions if you vote me in, lol

[13:23] {Threei}  much better day than first three

[13:23] {nemo} 3 more calls you'll have to take your shoes off

[13:23] {Threei}  adjusting is happening

[13:24] {Threei}  US Transportation Sec Lahood: US will not increase gas tax this year

[13:24] {Threei}  no?

[13:24] {Threei}  odd

[13:24] {nemo} don't worry, the states will

[13:24] {Threei}  I thopught "increase tax" is new prosperity mantra

[13:24] {ese} just lookin at it it's .04 and a bit not 5

[13:24] {nemo} politician prosperity mantra

[13:24] {Threei}  applicable at all levels, to all goods and services

[13:25] {Threei}  universal

[13:25] {Threei}  tax'em all, and let nobody feel forgotten

[13:25] {nemo} comrade

[13:26] {ese} ahh   wait a minute some did get filled at .42,,,.04 and a bit for some ,05 for some hmmm

[13:26] {Threei}  lol

[13:26] {Threei}  ese... you are as bad at math as any musician

[13:27] {Threei}  ask me how I know

[13:27] {ese} quick scalp trade....anything i could have done to improve that vad

[13:27] {ese} how do you know

[13:28] {ese} ha ha

[13:28] {nemo} my grandmother was 29 for 43 years

[13:29] {nemo} Captain Obvious

06[13:29] * nemo gives vad a tissue

[13:29] {Threei}  it's a pure personal tolerance matter ese... I felt FAZ had some momentum, enough to overcome .50

[13:29] {Threei}  so I offered .51

[13:30] {Threei}  and I hated my performance over last three days so much that I flet I could press just a tad more on a first day when I finally start getting it right

[13:31] {Threei}  I am not pressing in a sense of trying to be overly active yet,

[13:31] {ese} was it prints you were looking at

[13:31] {ese} gave you that feeling

[13:31] {Threei}  but when a trade started moving, at least holding for 1:1 made sense to me :)

[13:31] {Threei}  whole anchilada... look at 1 min

[13:31] {ese} yes i should have done that for sure

[13:31] {Threei}  ascending channel established from 12:00

[13:32] {Threei}  higher lows,

[13:32] {Threei}  flat top around .40 - .42,

[13:32] {Threei}  break of it is entry signal,

[13:32] {ese} hmmm  yes....now that i'm looking at it

[13:32] {Threei}  volume started increasing toward this break

[13:33] {Threei}  thick stocks rarely trade straight up or down, it's always uptick/downtick,

[13:33] {Threei}  this one after the break started making 3 upticks/one downtick dance

[13:33] {Threei}  so... kind of working

[13:33] {Threei}  I let it work

[13:33] {ese} ya ...i'm not use to that yet.....got an uneasy feeling....

[13:34] {ese} call it lack of experience

[13:35] {ese} faz is thick for sure 222,000,000 shs to this point

[13:41] {ese} if fitb gets into that 5 to 6 range.....i'll be thinkin about playing it steady again

[13:42] {Threei}  nice retreat there

[13:42] {Threei}  HBAN too

[13:44] {ese} ya ...when it went haywire gapping up like it did.....i lost touch.....really couldn't tell what it was going to do next

[13:45] {ese} looks like it is coming back down to sanity

[13:56] {ese} outta here until tomorrw.....it's the job thing....would rather be hangin with you all ...take care

[08:49] {ese} Does that index cease to exist?

[08:49] {nemo} I don't know the exact mechanics, but these ultra etfs are recalibrated every night

[08:50] {ese} every night?   how so and why?   i don't understand

[08:51] {nemo} They're designed as short-term trading vehicles.  I don't understand the exact mechanics, but that is what happens

[08:51] {ese} as hedges against existing positions

[08:52] {ese} like trading the S&P futures i would imagine

[08:53] {nemo} that would make sense.  They hold a combination of underlying stocks and options on those stocks.  I'm not sure any of these can go to zero.  It's probably an asymptotic dynamic as you get closer to zero.  Also, volatility, or lack there of is a factor in the price of the issue because volatility affects the price of the options

[11:09] {Threei}  BAC quite a selloff

[11:09] {magoo} READ on EGLE

[11:10] {Threei}  same... overall, it's a swing trade candidate for a storng upward move

[11:10] {Threei}  exact entry - can't find it so far

[11:11] {magoo} dont like the swing call

[11:11] {magoo} i dont hold 

[11:11] {nemo} you don't swing and you don't hold?

[11:11] {wulff} keep your eye on CNB

[11:11] {dino} enoc

[11:11] {Threei}  market continues dropping... what i is it you want me to do? :)

[11:12] {nemo} use the force Vader

[11:12] {nemo} Oh shit, my RAM monitor is at 666

[11:12] {Threei}  in my eyes, these market retreats are nothing but pullbacks bfore another runup

[11:13] {dino} ceph

[11:13] {fernp} DRYS double bottom

[11:13] {Threei}  but atempts to find the entry points were quite futile yesterday and, so far, today

[11:13] {Threei}  gotta take it on faith, which I hate

[11:13] {jfjf64} my eyes  black  and  blue

[11:15] {jfjf64} comon a joke    lol  lol    

[11:15] {Threei}  we are obviously going through some change in the market

[11:15] {nemo} I"n your eyes, the light the heat"

[11:15] {Threei}  a few days at the beginning of such changes are always tough,

[11:15] {Threei}  as old methods stop working,

[11:16] {Threei}  new ones are not found yet

[11:16] {nemo} switch to summer but volumes this morning are reasonable

[11:16] {Threei}  this is not a switch to summer

[11:16] {Threei}  this is witch in market mood

[11:16] {Threei}  amajor mode I would say

[11:16] {chinggis} any read on SKS vad?

[11:17] {Threei}  not really...

[11:18] {chinggis} ok ty

[11:27] {dino} where do all of these people go away too?

[11:28] {nemo} seeing dead people again?

[11:28] {Threei}  what people?

[11:28] {Threei}  let's see:

[11:29] {chinggis} GIL

[11:29] {Threei}  if today is repeat of yesterday, and so far it looks very similar,

[11:29] {Threei}  we will bottom out after a few shakeouts

[11:29] {nemo} fas scalp @ 3:30

[11:29] {Threei}  and resume runup

[11:29] {Threei}  problem is, attempts to find the turning point have no technicals under them,

[11:30] {Threei}  so there is no way to tell just how many shakeouts we get inti

[11:30] {Threei}  that's what killed yesterday

[11:30] {dino} lol nemo

[11:30] {Threei}  so, the question you need o answer for yourself is:

[11:30] {Threei}  continue trying or wait the whole thing out

[11:30] {nemo} do you feel lucky?

[11:31] {nemo} sorry, "Do you feel lucky, punk?"

[11:31] {dino} the way i see it is simple....they got it, i want it

[11:31] {Threei}  if former, EGLE .30 break

[11:32] {Threei}  FAS pullback under .30

[11:32] {nemo} nice segue Vad

[11:36] {dino} v sm l .00

[11:36] {Threei}  hold half for break

[11:36] {Threei}  if you are a purebreed scalper, you know what to do without my narrative

[11:37] {nemo} stop for drys

[11:37] {Threei}  HBAN, aim to sell half between .95 and 5

[11:37] {Threei}  DTYS, either undcer .20 or under .15, depending on your objectives

[11:37] {nemo} what if you're a braindamaged mutt?

[11:38] {Threei}  profit taking on DRYS is between .35 and .40 for the first half

[11:40] {dptl} in drys

[11:43] {nemo} egle strong drys not

[13:05] {Threei}  everfything to me looks this way...

[13:05] {Threei}  my problemn is different

[13:05] {Threei}  as I described it before

[13:05] {dino} v stopped -.15

[13:05] {Threei}  attempts to catch the turnaround take many small cuts

[13:05] {Threei}  they are small but they are many

[13:05] {nemo} Yes.

[13:06] {Threei}  that's why I made a point to present it as discretionary decision

[13:06] {nemo} yes

[13:06] {Threei}  either try when it starts turning around and be ready to take those cuts,

[13:06] {Threei}  or sit it out until market finalizes changes and we get firm read on it again

[13:07] {Threei}  as a ray brightening the day, just got this e-mail:

[13:07] {nemo} still in the middle of lunch too

[13:07] {Threei}  Vad,

[13:07] {Threei}  Just wanted to say again how grateful I am for your program. I've been going with the program and my plan, adjusting it as I go, and it just works! I don't even worry about things anymore, I just trade my plan. Yes at times I take some losses, but I actually seem to love those small losses, and that is weird, compared to previous state I used to have.

[13:07] {Threei}  The gains are much larger and without worries that I used to have. I haven't been able to get to this state of mind and these kinds of results with any other system or educational materials. You seem to have touch on the perfect points that made it click for me!

[13:07] {Threei}  I really appreciate it!

[13:07] {Threei}  I skip the name

[13:08] {dino} very nice vad, good job

[13:09] {Threei}  yeah, this kind of things makes me feel I do it for some good purpose

[13:09] {nemo} Hey, I only take paper cuts now compared to before coming here.  

[13:09] {dino} itri spikes again

[13:09] {nemo} did they have earnings today?

[13:10] {nemo} Plus, the structured exits keep my greed from losing me more

[13:11] {nemo} Although, I'm not sure you're supposed to have this much fun

[13:11] {dino} then get mad

[13:11] {Threei}  see, main thing is:

[13:11] {nemo} Dino...in my other pursuits when I'm mad, I'm having fun

[13:12] {Threei}  most of you here watch me doing it for years, some for months

[13:12] {nemo} I tracked your daily log for a looong time

[13:12] {Threei}  anyone saw a setback I wouldn't recover from in just a few days?? :)

[13:13] {nemo} No...what amazed me was the run from last Summer through the end of the year.

[13:13] {Threei}  just don't take any of those as more than pullback

[13:13] {fernp} nope

[13:13] {Threei}  nothing happens without pullbacks, setbacks, retreats

[13:13] {magoo} HEY..i askeed u not topost that he  he

[13:14] {Threei}  no trend goes without pullbacks,

[13:14] {nemo} what? pictures of Mags? now that's pornography

[13:14] {Threei}  no good runs occur without bad days

[13:14] {Threei}  yin and yang anyone?

[13:14] {nemo} It ain't about the celebrating, it's what you do when you get knocked down

[13:14] {Threei}  oneness of opposites?

[13:14] {Threei}  excatly

[13:15] {Threei}  you shrug, dust yourself off and go kick a$$

[13:15] {nemo} Don't know what good is unless you have bad by which to measure it

[13:15] {Threei}  there you go

[13:16] {Threei}  this is so ingrained, I don't even see the need to talk about it to say honestly,

[13:16] {Threei}  but when you guys start crying about couple days of stops

[13:16] {nemo} For you yes, although, repetition is the mother of all teaching

[13:16] {Threei}  I start feeling like giving lecture

06[13:16] * nemo crawls into his cave

[13:16] {Threei}  because I know magoo hates hose

[13:17] {Threei}  and I enjoy making him suffer

06[13:17] * nemo closes door

[13:17] {Threei}  and no magoo, that was not your e-mail

[13:17] {Threei}  yours I wouldn't dare to quote for the world of me

[13:24] {nemo} well, ese, you have an excuse, you're a musician.  I on the other hand, have none. :)

[13:27] {dino} sm risky s itri .01

[13:28] {nemo} stop to .70 on itri Dino?

[13:28] {dino} .51

[13:29] {dino} short

[13:30] {Threei}  something ought to work sooner or later, right?

[13:31] {nemo} patterns have been the same forever

[13:31] {dino} stopped -.46

[13:31] {Threei}  (US) FED'S STERN: MARKET CONDITIONS HAVE IMPROVED A BIT; "TOO BIG TO FAIL" MUST BE ADDRESSED

[13:31] {Threei}  - Recession to last several more months; consumer spending is stabilizing

[13:31] {Threei}  - Notes that an economic recovery would reduce risks of deflation; healthy growth to resume in mid 2010

[13:31] {Threei}  - Financial conditions improving on a broader basis

[13:31] {Threei}  lol, :consumer spending is stabilizing"...

[13:31] {Threei}  it very well may be,

[13:31] {Threei}  but let's kill credit cards now,

[13:31] {nemo} yeah, can't go below 0

[13:31] {Threei}  then increase taxes on energy

[13:32] {Threei}  then make cars more expensive

[13:32] {nemo} nice on inri Dino

[13:32] {Threei}  and rise taxes on fuel to make buying them more justified

[13:32] {nemo} Oh jeez, that's funny...itri

[13:32] {dino} ok nemo, around 58.60 if it gets there

[13:32] {Threei}  and let's see what happens to consumer after all that

[13:32] {nemo} Hah, just called you King of the Jews

[13:33] {nemo} In that new credit card bill, they are not reigning in interest rates

[13:34] {dino} nemo s=short, got stopped itri

[13:34] {nemo} oh you went short, missed that

[13:37] {ese} me thinks what happens with drys alot is that the big boys see a stock that they can beat the VWAP alot with.   It's daily 1min seems to look like that alot.    Me thinks that some of them should be WAPPED!

[13:37] {ese} VWAP( volume weighted average price) for those of you that don't know

[13:40] {_king} threei- how do you find your trades? curious b/c i can never find the breakouts like you

May 18 2009

Quite a backwards day. Not much worked; two nicely-sized wins on CAT and PALM and a scalp on FAS (on which we really underestimated the strength of the move) were not enough to cover a few stops, so we ended day slightly negative.

[10:17] {Threei} Long Setup: MGM .65
[10:18] {Threei} scalpers aim to axit above .70

[10:20] {Threei} scared the hell out of me dp
[10:20] {nemo} in .66
[10:20] {Threei} but even .67 a bit too high...
[10:20] {Threei} trigger was .65, adn was easily available
[10:21] {nemo} out ty
[10:21] {Threei} scalpers got their target
[10:22] {ese} bstop drys .17
[10:23] {dptl} out
[10:23] {ese} sorry that bstop is .19
[10:23] {dptl} .72
[10:23] {Threei} guys, let's elaborate definitions
[10:23] {Threei} Long Setup: ABCD 20 break
[10:24] {Threei} means buy when broken
[10:24] {Threei} unless you want aggresive entry of course
[10:24] {jfjf64} cant pull up
[10:24] {Threei} prepare limit entry at 20.03 if 3 cents chansing is your limit of tolreance
[10:25] {Threei} and click buy when 20 offers disappear
[10:25] {Threei} now,
[10:25] {Threei} Long Setup: ABCD 20
[10:25] {Threei} means, 20 itself is a trigger,
[10:25] {Threei} prepare 20.01 entry,
[10:25] {Threei} don't be a first buyer unless stock is thin
[10:25] {Threei} and try to grab 20 when buying starts and offers melt down
[10:26] {Threei} worst casde scenario, get 20.01
[10:26] {magoo} out .77 MGM ty
[10:26] {Threei} call for .65 entry was caused by the fact that MGM topped at .64 twice
[10:26] {Threei} day traders got 1:1 on MGM
[10:26] {dino} pru wall at .50
[10:27] {Threei} so, .65 became a trigger,
[10:27] {Threei} but since there was a scalping version for a very small gain in this play
[10:27] {Threei} I didn't want to say .64 break, which leaves too much room
[10:27] {Threei} and opted for strict .65
[10:28] {Threei} hope it's clear
[10:30] {dino} sm l .50
[10:30] {ese} bstop intc .48
[10:30] {nemo} of what dino pru?
[10:30] {dino} y

06[12:10] * nemo hopes he didn't get laserdave with the tusk
[12:11] {magoo} out hig here .26..not bad for nut job:)
[12:11] {Threei} there is certain level where it's reasonable
[12:11] {Threei} and then there is magoo :)
[12:11] {Threei} with HIG entry at .05 it is reasonable ro hold for .20 break,
[12:11] {Threei} but to buy there as a new entry - buying too much risk
[12:12] {Threei} anyway, glad to see we played HIG on both sides
[12:12] {Threei} like violing.. short, cover, switch to long
[12:12] {Threei} violing?
[12:12] {Threei} sigh
[12:13] {jfjf64} double good
[12:13] {nemo} Although, since I first asked about 20 break it built a range for about 7 minutes before breaking. WHile buildig the range volume decreased from initial pop over .20 and then increased when it broke .20 the 3rd time.
[12:13] {Threei} or as old little Johnny joke goes, twice is twice
[12:13] {nemo} at the same time?
[12:14] {Threei} it made a play more reasonable
[12:14] {nemo} Isn't that little misha
[12:14] {Threei} and if HIG wasn't up over two bucks already from the low, I would go for it
[12:15] {nemo} would have been a scalp. Is HIG possibly coming into support here?
[12:25] {Threei} CHRYSLER SALES CHIEF: THE 789 DEALERS AFFECTED BY CUTOFF HAVE AROUND 44K VEHICLES ON THEIR LOTS

[12:26] {Threei} what a frikin disaster...
[12:26] {Threei} Long Setup: LVS .50 break
[12:26] {Threei} just a scalp most likelyt
[12:27] {Threei} no chasing beyond .51

[14:48] {Threei} stop under .95
[14:48] {Threei} this type of plays ca take a few tries
[14:48] {Threei} that's why half lot, so you could do it without to much damange
[14:49] {dino} make it .02 mkt drop
[14:49] {Threei} and no chasing
[14:49] {Threei} it's a precision play

[14:58] {nemo} better you than me?
[14:58] {Threei} why go second time for teh same trigger,
[14:58] {Threei} to have less potential and bigger stop?
[14:58] {Threei} for this trigger to become valid HIG needs to stop making lower lows,
[14:59] {Threei} consolidate a bit
[14:59] {Threei} then break
[14:59] {Threei} otherwise chances of false break arwe too high

Overnight hold on VNDA worked like charm; so did HIG long and COIN long prepared from yesterday and called today. Second half of the day was boring and empty, but morning gave us all we needed.

[08:06] {Threei}  got last 300 shares, trying to ofer them at 11.90 but will exit for less if wind changes

[08:07] {Threei}  with 10.80 entry price and partial for 65 cents profit, that was as close to calculated risk as yu can get

[08:08] {Threei}  if 11.38 melts, will dump 100 more into it keeping last 200

[08:10] {Threei}  lol, no chance

[10:09] {Threei}  watch HBAN

[10:09] {Threei}  it seems to be moving with some delay vs FAS

[10:10] {Threei}  when FAS stages strong move, HBAN gives a window of opportunity for entry before following

[10:11] {dino} schw l .,65

[10:12] {Threei}  idea of the play would be: FAS just spiked into .30, HBAN moved to .65; FAS retreated, HBAN stayed put. Now if FAS spikes again, buy .65 break on HBAN

[10:12] {Threei}  with stop under .60

[10:12] {dino} holx l .00

[10:12] {Threei}  no FAS spike yet

[12:28] {chinggis} ok ty 

[12:29] {Threei}  it's a bit weaker than FAS, so you need FAS either drop;pong or at least staying put; don;t short against FAS going up though

[12:38] {Threei}  FITB dropped with each FAS downticks or when FAS didn't do anything

[12:39] {chinggis} u gave me FAS correlation, that was very helpful

[12:39] {Threei}  and paused and upticked faintly while FAS went up

[16:00] {nemo} nite

May 12 2009

The day started off the wrong foot as I misread the market. The idea to skip morning breaks and wait for pullback was only partially right, as pullnbacks didn't offer much and stopped us out before any worthy potential could be realized. Second part ofd the day was much brighter with wel-timed casll on recovery. HBAN long and especially VNDA helped make the day brighter.

Session Time: Tue May 12 00:00:00 2009

[08:08] {magoo} morning

[08:09] {nemo} mags :)

[08:09] {nemo} How's your back?

[08:09] {magoo} u mean ankle??

[08:10] {nemo} no, back...Since your walking is screwed up by your ankle I was wondering how your back was

[08:10] {Threei}  may I bring you good news this fine morning:

[08:10] {Threei}  PRICE TARGET RAISED TO $200 BY ANALYST AT ROCHDALE SECURITIES (TIMING UNCERTAIN)

[08:10] {Threei}  GS

[08:11] {Threei}  that's very philosophical addition to upgrades and downgrades

[08:11] {Threei}  BALTIC DRY BULK INDEX 1.7% (8TH CONSECUTIVE RISE)

[08:12] {magoo} morn vad

[08:12] {magoo} look STEC

[08:43] {pita} hi memo

[08:44] {magoo} vad..working theories at this stage?

[08:44] {Threei}  still looking around

[08:44] {Threei}  frikin FTBK

[08:45] {nemo} mbi

[08:45] {Threei}  takes the FITB's torch

[08:45] {magoo} no i meant..we had shalow pullbk..thoughts here

[08:45] {Threei}  HBAN is quite strong too

[08:46] {Threei}  that's what I mean too

[08:46] {nemo} that trade deficit umber seems to have goose the futures a tad

[08:48] {fernp} Hello everybody

[08:48] {Threei}  fern :)

[08:52] {ese} morning

[08:52] {nemo} ese :)

[08:52] {Threei}  ese :)

[08:53] {Threei}  ese... keep an eye on FTBK as candidate to replace your FITB atm

[08:53] {ese} tks vad will do.....

[08:54] {nemo} funny I was thinking the same thing....I can see ese now "20000 of the little buggers"

[08:54] {Threei}  it trades a bit differently, more volatility

[08:54] {Threei}  so keep "buggers" amount reasonable until you get a feel for it

[08:54] {nemo} or you'll get "buggered"

[08:54] {ese} tks

[08:55] {nemo} ese dcc

[08:55] {dptl} good morning all

[08:56] {nemo} dp :)

[08:56] {Threei}  dp :)

[08:56] {ese} one of the reasons for trading fitb was the fact that it does over 10,000,000 daily....most of my trading is done on stocks that averge minimum 10 mill a day

[08:56] {ese} dp

[08:56] {ese} they may move against me but not by very much

[09:02] {dino} gm all, turnaround tuesday

[09:02] {Threei}  dino :)

[09:12] {cosmo} STEC pre mkt high = 14.20 ... just in case

[09:18] {vinod} good morning

[09:18] {Threei}  vinod :)

[09:18] {nemo} vino :)

[09:18] {ese} another major pullback in DRYS should be over soon

[09:18] {nemo} wfc gave back everything from this morning

[09:19] {jfjf64} mornin all

[09:20] {ese} jf

[09:20] {Threei}  jf :)

[09:20] {cosmo} DRYS pre mkt high = 7.24  

[09:21] {cosmo} ... so far

[09:22] {Threei}  my inclinations are on a long side for the opening plays

[09:22] {Threei}  WFC, FTBK

[09:23] {Threei}  26.50 is WFC's support so far

[09:24] {ese} someone take a look at the volume  on the faz daily.......would you interpret that as a wack of short positions being taken on the financials

[09:25] {Threei}  that's one part ese,

[09:25] {Threei}  another is:

[09:26] {Threei}  as it drops it attracts a lot of those who believe in pullback on financials, and at the same time it becomes cheaper so players can afford more

[09:27] {ese} hmmmm

[09:27] {Threei}  if we had dollar volume it would be more objective

[09:27] {ese} yes

[09:28] {ese} seems like it really hit a low at 4:40 yesterday

[09:29] {ese} sorry the day before

[09:29] {Threei}  FTBK, watch for sharp drop at the open

[09:30] {Threei}  if does it, it's a buy

[09:30] {Threei}  not delighted by 3 break at this point

[09:31] {Threei}  WFC, watch for pullback to .60 - .70

[09:33] {Threei}  come on WFC

[09:50] {vinod} yes

[09:50] {nemo} stops are blowing right through

[09:50] {dino} aipc good report feels like manipulation to 25 strike

[09:50] {vinod} nemo--Last night my wife said I am dumb trader

[09:52] {fernp} HBAN double bottom?

[10:06] {dino} pnra stopped -.35

[10:08] {ese} anyone else long drys

[10:09] {Threei}  will on .10 break, ese

[10:10] {ese} ya....i took the agressive entry......market internals are showing up so i think it will break that way

[10:10] {ese} oppps not anymore

[10:10] {dino} don't feel that

[10:11] {Threei}  yeah, quite questionable so far

[10:11] {dino} thurs. gaps filled

[10:11] {Threei}  last week or so morning pullbacks were sure entries

[10:11] {Threei}  not today

[10:11] {Threei}  look at WFC

[10:12] {nemo} arbitrage plays on finnies?

[10:12] {Threei}  ?

[10:13] {nemo} they all sold stock last week at lower prices.  Those who bought selling this week and taking the difference?

[10:13] {ese} was looking a tick up and trin dn dino

[10:13] {dino} over my head

[10:14] {Threei}  that construct makes no sense to me nemo

[10:14] {nemo} issue prices last week were below end of week highs

[10:14] {nemo} flip out of it

[10:15] {Threei}  "they all" - subscribers?

[10:15] {nemo} What I saw of the issues, they were below market at the time

[10:15] {nemo} Why hang around if you can sell it higher.  THe banks are all garbage

[10:16] {Threei}  mnost of them haven't indicated prices, some said already issued and sold, some said will issue and sell

[10:16] {dino} nemo is correct

[10:16] {nemo} Forgive me if I don't trust what they say

[10:16] {dino} they were above issue price, for traders, not institions

[10:16] {Threei}  so it's all just a speculation

[10:16] {Threei}  they said something

[10:17] {Threei}  we have no idea what of that weasd true

[10:17] {nemo} History is merely a fantasy upon which we all agree

[10:17] {Threei}  how do you structure your trade on that?

[10:18] {ese} that would have been better entry for drys.....higher double botom

[10:18] {dino} i'm not trading finies, but they issued lower, so profit taking, keep it simple.who cares

May 11 2009

Quiet day. Nice opening with a few strong trades, then long period of stall with two stops. Not much excitment.

Session Time: Mon May 11 00:00:00 2009

[07:58] {magoo} morning

[08:07] {Threei}  I'll have to confirm the astute observation by magoo - it IS morning

[08:07] {Threei}  05/09/09 05:01pm

[08:07] {Threei}  Govt promises US stress tested banks they may not have to raise the $74.6B of fresh capital mandated - FT citing sources

[08:07] {Threei}  - FT reports bank sources say that the govt has given quiet assurances that the banks can offset some of the $74.6B in mandated capital raise """"""""if earnings over the next six months outstrip regulators' forecasts."""""""" 10 of the 19 stress testd banks are required to raise capital, but were privately told that if operating profits in Q2 and Q3 are better than the stress test forecast, they will receive credit for the difference, thus reducing the need for raising capital from share issues or asset sales. The banks will still be required to submit capital raising plans for the full amount required within 28 days, and will not be allowed to assume earnings will surpass the stress scenario. A Fed official declined to comment on the report that the 10 banks would be able to get credit for exceeding earnings projections.

[10:06] {dino} whats w/the w's

[10:06] {Threei}  stops people out, drops into support and gives us a chance to enter

[10:07] {Threei}  and if it breaks and works, then we wil have outsmarted ourselves

[10:07] {dino} schw l .99

[10:08] {Threei}  if you took DRYS on that .90 break, feel free to exit as you see fit

[11:16] {Threei}  MGM 1:2

[11:18] {Threei}  vinod... have you bought it fir just a small scalp?

[11:19] {Threei}  'cause if not, .96 is too tight stop, and if yes - you already had over 1;1

[11:19] {vinod} yes , only 1kand little jumpy--i am?

[11:20] {Threei}  what I mean is... all the elements of a trade must be aligned

[11:20] {Threei}  if that was scal, as your stop placement indicates, why are you still in?

[11:20] {Threei}  scalp

[11:20] {vinod} o.k boss. will follow

[11:20] {Threei}  if that eas a trade for bigger profits, why is stop placed in a scalping fashion

[11:20] {Threei}  see what I mean?

[11:21] {Threei}  if you try bigger trade with scalping type of a stop, you will be shaken all too often

[15:36] {Threei}  and now we are consolidating without much drop

[15:36] {dino} way below lots of gaps

[15:36] {Threei}  and on light volume, yes

[15:36] {Threei}  but the most important factor is:

[15:36] {nemo} The Spanish Inquisition?

[15:36] {Threei}  no person on a planet thinks or says "long"

[15:36] {magoo} STOP

[15:37] {dino} hmmm, thinking the dip buyers have been buying or we'd be alot lower

[15:37] {magoo} really

[15:37] {magoo} see...mkts not letting those cautious who missed out..in

[15:37] {nemo} "self?"

[15:37] {Threei}  who is buying, and most importantly

[08:27] {pita} 10k FAZ long is the call?

[09:58] {dino} lol

[09:58] {Threei}  there are underwriters for that offering

[09:58] {Threei}  it's not necessary open market offering

[10:00] {Threei}  MAR WHOLESALE INVENTORIES: -1.6% V -1.0%E

[10:00] {ese} vad question....been following intel INTC lately....what causes an opening like today for that stock.......market is up and it just tanks.....market makers want to buy cheap stock ..drive it dn to shake it out then drive it up??

[10:01] {ese} BRCM looks the same

[10:01] {Threei}  high opening is caused by pre-market and on the open bids, mostly submited by retail investors who trade on newspaper quotes

[10:02] {Threei}  amateurish hour

[10:02] {Threei}  pros happilyu sell into those bids

[10:02] {Threei}  no one left to buy - stock tanks

[10:02] {Threei}  normal trading starts in a while

[10:02] {ese} so whats happening now is basically a shake out

[10:02] {Threei}  no one knows for sure

[10:02] {Threei}  could be just a pullback

[10:03] {jfjf64} you sd write a book my man      lol

[10:47] {nemo} not to mention the average support of the previous 7 bars looks to be about .60

[10:47] {Threei}  see, that's your problem nemo... YOU CAN COUNT!

[10:47] {Threei}  we can't, so we keep it simple and visual

[10:48] {nemo} no...I can see the bars 

[10:48] {nemo} over the previous 7 you have 1 touching 2 just above 2 a little more above and 2 about as far below as the 2 a little more above

[10:48] {Threei}  of course you can

[10:49] {Threei}  but you also can count them, and you abuse this ability

[10:57] {Threei}  Up To $11B In Common Stock," at 9:17 a.m. incorrectly said the bank had

[10:57] {Threei}  decided on a price per share and a total price for the offering. A corrected

[10:57] {Threei}  version follows.)

[10:57] {Threei}  Bank of America Corp. (BAC) on Friday filed with the U.S. Securities and

[10:57] {Threei}  The Charlotte-based bank said it expects to use the net proceeds from the

[10:57] {Threei}  offering for general corporate purposes.

[10:57] {Threei}  Banc of America Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch & Co. were listed as the

[10:57] {Threei}  underwriters for the offering.

[15:40] {nemo} DryShips (DRYS) just announced a dilutive offering of quite magnificent size, about 40% dilution - with the company only down 15% that is a sign of approval. Again it makes the CEO's commentary A WEEK AGO [May 1, 2009: DryShips CEO: Dry Bulk Sector Oversold] about being ready to pounce on acquisitions (with the money they didn't have) even more bemusing but this market will lap up anything as "half full". Oh George, he is quite the characte

[15:40] {nemo}     * Greek dry bulk carrier DryShips Inc (DRYS) said it would offer common stock, its third such offering since November, and hopes to raise up to $475 million in an at-the-market offering.

[15:40] {nemo}     * DryShips, which had earlier raised $500 million in a similar offering announced in January, disclosed its latest offering in a filing with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

[15:40] {nemo}     * Oppenheimer analyst Scott Burk downgraded the stock to "perform" from "outperform" and suspended the company's price target citing near-term weakness on this offering. "This is the company's third ATM offering since November, which has increased the share count from 43 million to 185 million currently," Burk said.

[15:40] {Threei}  when was it?

[15:41] {Threei}  I don't see fresh news on DRYS

[11:42] {dino} mygn stop to .30

[11:44] {Threei}  let's see if we get nice clean consolidation and break on WFC

[11:44] {Threei}  break naturally would be .50

[11:45] {Threei}  support fgor consolidation range is what we need

[11:45] {Threei}  so far too deep pullback

[11:45] {Threei}  next support is .20,

[11:45] {dino} out mygn .37, +.37

[11:45] {Threei}  so let's go with mini-range scenario

[11:45] {Threei}  dive under .30, holding above .20

[11:46] {Threei}  then break of .30

[11:46] {magoo} in .33

[11:52] {Threei}  lower is a bit fuzzy

[11:52] {Threei}  so far is .25 instead of .30

[12:51] {Threei}  I am not delighted by that idea because it pulls back way too far from there

[12:51] {Threei}  range is too wide for me to enter bnreak comfortably

[12:51] {Threei}  so I prefer entries closer to lower end if the range

[08:56] {cosmo} CROX
[09:04] {Threei} DRYS consolidates under 10.30
[09:05] {nemo} What I miss?
[09:06] {Threei} depends on how many centuries you slept...
[09:06] {nemo} just call me Rip
[09:06] {ese} good morning
[09:06] {Threei} but if you know that the cold war is over, you are fairly up to speed
[09:06] {Threei} ese :)
[09:07] {cosmo} the latest cold war?
[09:08] {Threei} don't confuse him cosmo
[09:08] {cosmo} k....back to sleep then
[09:08] {Threei} I mean, any more than I will
[09:10] {cosmo} its your privlage, of course
[09:10] {cosmo} privlege
[09:10] {fernp} Good morning
[09:10] {Threei} fern :)
[09:10] {cosmo} DRYS tests
[09:12] {cosmo} 10.30 wall melts
[09:12] {pita} can this pre mkt bank run continue?
[09:12] {pita} quite the rip
[09:13] {Threei} it can, but the main question is, are we willing to chasde it insteasd of waiting for pullback?
[09:13] {nemo} what isn't ripping
[09:15] {Threei} (US) SENATOR DODD: BELIEVES FDIC SHOULD BE GIVEN RESOLUTION AUTHORITY FOR LARGE FAILING FINANCIAL FIRMS
[09:15] {Threei} - Must be adequate safeguards in place to prevent big financial firms from taking on too much risk.
[09:15] {Threei} - Large financial firms may require new disclosure and reporting requirements.
[09:15] {Threei} - Would like to see power to regulate systemic risk held by more than just one body.
[09:17] {Threei} so, with all the rumors flying around about BAC needing tens on billions, it moves up almost two points pre-market?
[09:17] {nemo} another sprint out of the gate day and meander around the high until the program trading kicks in after three and gooses it some more?
[09:22] {Threei} working assumption is, hard pullback from the opening, a few nervous moves, then recovery and new highs
[09:22] {Threei} if market jumps up from the open, I will miss the move
[09:24] {Threei} FIG knows no limits eh?
[09:25] {Threei} if you feel the pullback after open is our scenario and don't mind very risky opening play,
[09:25] {Threei} FAZ 6.20 break is your play
[09:26] {nemo} vinod and Mags should be all over it
[09:27] {Threei} BAC is climbing even more into open
[09:27] {Threei} definitely "wait for pullback"
[09:27] {Threei} no way I am buying breakout here
[09:28] {Threei} I am rather prepared to cry if it goes to 15 with no pullbacvk
[09:28] {Threei} nemo, pass me a tissue please...
[09:28] {nemo} use your sleeve

[10:34] {Threei} if sets up from here, stop under 6.10
[10:35] {Threei} under 6.05 will become rather bounce candidate
[10:36] {Threei} just under 6 most likely

[10:48] {Threei} no, I still don't get it nemo... :)
[10:49] {Threei} if you were going for a scalp why half,
[10:49] {Threei} if you were going for day trade, you haven't reached 1:1, why partial
[10:49] {Threei} you did some kind of hybrid, lol
[10:49] {nemo} got in @ .80 sold half at .90
[10:49] {Threei} target and stop as with scalp, partialijg as with day trade
[10:50] {nemo} I was playing tighter
[10:50] {Threei} and result is not really harmful, just a wash
[10:50] {Threei} but internal logic of the play is lopsided
[10:51] {Threei} my inner feel of harmony is upset
[10:51] {Threei} see? now you've upset my inner feel of harmony
[10:51] {pita} zen?
06[10:51] * Threei is crying bitterly in the corner
[10:51] {nemo} no, you allow your inner feel to be upset
06[10:53] * Threei kicks HIG in the rear, trying to restore fragile emotional balance by resorting to means of violence
[10:54] {pita} non zen
[10:54] {Threei} nope

[08:27] {magoo} i was  long thosse

[08:27] {Threei}  Quoting unnamed sources familiar with the stress-test results, Wall St Journal reported that the government is expected to request that 10 out of the 19 banks undergoing stress tests would be requested to raise additional capital. This follows speculation that Bank of America and Citi, would need a $10B equity raise - a claim refuted by BAC spokesman - and as many as 4-6 banks would have to post additional capital.

[08:28] {magoo} cut to go'

[08:28] {Threei}  ah

[11:44] {Threei}  btw, r words of theory, just so we are clear on definitions

[11:44] {Threei}  everyone's clear on why that entry was not really a breakout?

[11:44] {nemo} no

[11:45] {Threei}  breakout in it's normal form is a break of day high

[11:45] {Threei}  somewhat muted form would be

[11:45] {Threei}  a break of some range inside of daily, but the range would have to be solidly establisahed

[11:45] {nemo} missed lvs short

[11:46] {Threei}  that entry was simply a bottom fishing, break of mini-range after bottoming out and consolidation

[11:46] {nemo} so a bfbmr

[11:47] {pita} Vad, you mean on BAC?

[11:47] {dino} more like fubar

[11:49] {Threei}  I thought it was necessary to make the distinction

[13:06] {Threei}  see that little consolidation?

[13:08] {Threei}  now it spends a little time between .40 and .50, new break will become valid

[13:26] {dino} i don't know who ese is

[13:27] {Threei}  lol

[13:28] {dptl} drys short?

[13:29] {Threei}  hmmm

[13:29] {Threei}  worth a try I think

[13:29] {dptl} to late

[13:29] {Threei}  don't chase, let it bounce

[13:30] {dino} lod's coming

[13:33] {dptl} drys left without me :(

[13:33] {ese} well.....let me tell you......It all started in a run down shack in Southern Saskatchewan.....blah blah blah blah

[13:34] {nemo} don't tell me, you were born a poor black child

[13:34] {dino} yadda yadda yadda

[13:34] {Threei}  it gave .48-.49 dp

[13:34] {Threei}  on the bounce

[13:34] {Threei}  that would be your entry on breakdown anyway

[13:34] {dptl} was waiting .49 and no luck

[13:37] {nemo} if it broke support

[13:38] {Threei}  it dropped almost vertically into support

[13:38] {Threei}  come on

[13:38] {Threei}  what are we going to discuss this distinction every time it occurs?

[13:38] {nemo} no

[13:38] {Threei}  there is consolidation near support an dresistance, then we are interested in a break

[13:39] {Threei}  there is a vertical move into support or resistance, then we don't go for a break

[13:41] {Threei}  DRYS is not a play on this bounce anymore

[13:42] {Threei}  that short has been played out

[14:07] {Threei}  hmmm

[14:07] {Threei}  I knew all the problems were somewhere in the area of basic definitions and reading comprehension 101

[14:08] {Threei}  look at this

[14:08] {Threei}  Just 35% of American voters believe that a free market economy is the same as a capitalist economy.

[14:08] {Threei}  The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 38% disagree and 27% are not sure.

[14:08] {Threei}  This helps explain earlier data showing that 77% prefer a free market economy over a government managed economy while just 53% prefer capitalism over socialism.

[08:18] {Threei}  (US) WHITE HOUSE AIDE: ADMINISTRATION PLANNING PROPOSED CHANGES TO TAX TREATMENT OF US FIRMS THAT OPERATE OVERSEAS

[08:18] {Threei}  - Reminder: Back on April 22, the WSJ discussed the impact of the Obama administration's proposals to tax offshore profits, noting that it might have a sizable impact on the likes of Pfizer, Cisco, Coca-Cola and Hewlett-Packard, which shelter tens of billions in income offshore annually.

[08:18] {Threei}  - Also noted that under current law, US companies can defer taxes indefinitely on the profits they say they have earned overseas until they "repatriate" that money back to the US. The administration has proposed changing this law, and has already baked in the new tax receipts into its budget figures for 2011.

[08:19] {Threei}  - The WSJ article examined securities filings of more than two dozen big companies to see who has the most at stake. Just 10 of the largest companies accumulated nearly $58B in such earnings during 2008, representing about $20B in potential tax revenue. Total US corporate tax receipts last year were around $304B

[09:43] {jfjf64} hmm

[09:44] {magoo} all his experience hanging out in communists taverns

[09:44] {Threei}  lol

[09:44] {wulff} starting to think that

[09:44] {Threei}  most things are technical

[09:44] {Threei}  some are guts

[09:44] {Threei}  this one was guts

[09:45] {wulff} and cash cushion

[09:46] {Threei}  ACAD... grrr

[09:46] {Threei}  I never felt safe enough for entry

[09:46] {Threei}  that opening bar on it made it a bit out of my risk tolerance zone

[09:47] {Threei}  70 cents jump on $2 stock...

[09:47] {Threei}  BUCY

[09:47] {Threei}  let's see if breakout buyers get trapped

[09:48] {Threei}  and enter on sharp pullback if that happens

[09:49] {nemo} pcx , aci an mee in tht space too

[09:50] {dino} sm l mant .49

[09:51] {ese} L fitb again .00

[09:51] {wulff} 1.5 million shares

[09:52] {nemo} wuss

[09:52] {ese} it is up there though

[09:52] {ese} 10k

[09:52] {nemo} girlieman

[09:52] {ese}  the first one was 15k

[09:52] {ese} by .08

[09:53] {Threei}  so far so good

[09:53] {ese} out FITB .05

[09:53] {Threei}  prepare half lot BUCY

[09:53] {Threei}  idea of the trade:

[09:53] {ese} +.05 on 10k

[09:53] {Threei}  feels like stops are located under .80,

[09:54] {Threei}  if they get triggered, we should get quick downdraft into .50 - .60 zone

[09:54] {ese} that was pretty funny there nemo........I'll get ya though

[09:54] {nemo} What can I say, I'm jealous

[09:55] {ese} This make up for friday 

[09:55] {Threei}  FITB seems to be following FAS quite close today, ese

[09:55] {ese} yes

[09:56] {ese} and qqqq....taking signal from both

[09:56] {nemo} BUCY strting to form a C&H?

[09:57] {nemo} or a ladle?

[09:57] {nemo} :)

[09:57] {Threei}  I don't l;ike the idea of breakout on it

[09:57] {nemo} yeah, but all the coals are moving up

[09:57] {Threei}  if that what happens, I'll rather let it go

[10:00] {Threei}  *MAR PENDING HOMES SALES (M/M): 3.2% V 0.0%E

[10:00] {ese} other thing about FITB ...this bull flag it's forming explains it's trading habit lately.....less volume/less range....after it breaks out of it one way or the other should go back to normal for a few days 

[10:00] {Threei}  *MAR CONSTRUCTION SPENDING (M/M): 0.3% V -1.6%E

[10:00] {Threei}  - prior revised from -0.9% to -1.0%

[10:00] {ese} should be able to take advantage of that

[10:01] {ese} hmmm positive numbers should help today

[10:02] {Threei}  quite a spike

[10:02] {nemo} yep

[10:25] {jfjf64} ty

[10:25] {Threei}  I don't like this entry here

[10:25] {dino} agys

[10:26] {Threei}  would rather wait for it to bounce, show inability to make new high

[10:26] {Threei}  so I could hunt for aggressive entry closer to resistance

[10:46] {larisa} I hope you are wrong, it is harder to compete wih pros :) 

[10:47] {dino} don't overthink, just trade

[10:47] {nemo} It would make sense though...so I am probably wrong...but how disillusioned do you think people are now?

[10:47] {dino} in the end nothing matters

[10:47] {nemo} I'm not Dino, just noticing the volumes...yeah in the end, we're dead

[14:08] {Threei}  that's questionable decision from risk management point of view

[14:08] {Threei}  conviction alone is cheap

[14:08] {nemo} yeah, it's looking worse

[14:08] {Threei}  the game is about risk exchange

[14:09] {Threei}  with entry 30 cents higher my risk is zilch

[14:09] {Threei}  entry here is way riskier

[14:09] {nemo} and I took my eye off rimm

[14:11] {Threei}  1:4 baby

[14:12] {Threei}  covered 1/4 more .61, +.38

[14:13] {Threei}  me happy

[14:14] {Threei}  not jump-up-and-down-happy, but this masculine tempered smile happy

[14:14] {dino} anybody know when stamps go up in usa?

[14:15] {larisa} yw

[14:18] {larisa} something wrong with HIG, keeps rising :)

[14:19] {Threei}  yeah... looked at it a few times, couldn't bring myself to call it

[14:21] {larisa} I'm trying to stay away from it too 

[14:21] {larisa} :)

[14:35] {wulff} just came back. what on earth happened with the Finnies?

[14:35] {nemo} they  all need financing 

[14:35] {larisa} lol

[14:36] {nemo} the pres says they're healthy enough to get it from the market, so the dilution should raise the stock price...go figure

[14:36] {Threei}  my guess is,things happen accordingly to original markety intent briefly interrupted by swine flu

[14:37] {Threei}  that intend was to go up into stress test results,

[14:37] {Threei}  then react to announcement

[14:37] {Threei}  most likely by harsh drop if results are positive

[14:37] {nemo} so, is expd setting up for short or long?

[14:38] {nemo} answers that

[14:38] {dino}  cmtl stopped -.33

[14:39] {Threei}  my dear beauty, EXPD

[14:41] {larisa} lethargic beauty 

[14:42] {jfjf64} we take it any way we cd get it    correct vad

[14:43] {Threei}  ummm

[14:43] {Threei}  I feel this is too loaded

[14:43] {Threei}  I'll stay silent :)

[14:44] {Threei}  even though magoo is not here, nemo is not much better... I already see his preparing 15 jokes about sleeping beauties

[14:44] {nemo} no...not one

[14:45] {Threei}  says nemo quickly ripping the sheets and throwing pieces out

[14:47] {wulff} you find any good trades since noon? 

[14:47] {Threei}  [13:24] {Alert} Threei Short Setup: EXPD 38 break if stays under .10, half lot

[14:48] {Threei}  13:24 is after noon

[14:48] {Threei}  I think

[14:48] {dino} celg stop to .95

[14:58] {nemo} early on expd

[14:58] {wulff} LVS pullback

[14:59] {Threei}  nah, I am OK with it... look at that moment in the market - volume flattened, stopped giving infications

[14:59] {Threei}  market could start recovery at that point just as easily

[15:00] {Threei}  I am scalper... I got 50 cents trade... do I risk it in uncertain situiation?

[15:01] {Threei}  think of trading as buying and selling risk

[15:01] {nemo} understood, just busting stones, probability of reversal much higher

[15:01] {Threei}  the guy who bought EXPD at 38 from me bought whole lot of risk

[15:01] {Threei}  and I was happy to sell it to him

[15:01] {nemo} had to do something...couldn't think up any sleeping beauty jokes

[15:01] {jfjf64} lol

[15:40] {Threei}  - Fed will have to tighten policy at some point, cannot predict when that will be.

[15:40] {Threei}  - Loses on legacy assets should not get in the way of lending, bank lending should rise as economy recovers.

[08:14] {nemo} New Palm unit coming out

[08:17] {Threei} NY TIMES: US SENATE DEFEATS PROPOSAL THAT WOULD HAVE ALLOWED HOMEOWNERS GREATER FLEXIBILITY TO RENEGOTIATE TERMS OF MORTGAGES

[08:17] {Threei} - Article noted that the mortgage provision garnered only 45 votes in the Senate, falling well short of the 60 votes necessary to break a threatened filibuster to a measure sponsored by Senator Richard Durbin, Democrat of Illinois, that would give bankruptcy judges greater flexibility to modify mortgages.

[08:18] {Threei} - Article noted that in recent weeks, major banks and bank trade associations worked closely with Senate Republicans to stop the measure. Twelve Democrats joined all the Republicans in voting against it.

[08:18] {Threei} interesting dissent

[08:18] {nemo} It's a huge threat to sanctity of contract

[10:48] {Threei} and what do you do with those results?

[10:49] {Threei} they are open to interpretations

[10:49] {dino} another waste of $

[10:49] {Threei} they add to panic or to elation,

[10:49] {Threei} either can be unfounded in reality

[10:49] {dino} you see no hope of getting the $b from chy=rysler back

[11:57] {nemo} understood

[11:57] {nemo} I don't know any personally

[11:57] {jfjf64} ms is a monster

[11:57] {nemo} By the way Vad, I saw GPRO do your bollinger band thing

[12:05] {larisa} CAT better break this time

[12:05] {dptl} so .50 long?

[12:06] {nemo} lunchtime breakouts on a dead day

[12:06] {Threei} yeah... questionable proposition

[12:07] {Threei} look at CAT break attempt

[12:07] {larisa} real fight at .95 just can not do it

[12:07] {nemo} cat had volume spike on last red, could be a top

[12:08] {nemo} that last green volum spike couldn't maintain any momentum

[12:09] {nemo} that overnight gap in DRYS worries me also

[12:09] {larisa} you worry too much :)

[12:09] {Threei} NIssan REPORTS US APRIL SALES -38% TO 47,200K UNITS

[12:11] {dino} lol larisa

[12:11] {ese} dino...do ya think gpro...might be worth another shot

[12:12] {ese} L at .50 or .00

[12:12] {nemo} well, who took DRYS

[12:14] {Threei} if you firmly decide to get on one of these steady climbers, you'd do better with PALM

[12:14] {dino} yes es

[12:14] {dino} report is not bad at all, more like strike messing w/it

[12:16] {jfjf64} cat breaks 37

[12:16] {nemo} wow lunchtime breakouts

[12:16] {nemo} figures

[12:16] {nemo} gpro moving

[12:16] {larisa} best play on CAT was off .80, not breakout. struggling too much

[12:17] {Threei} right

[12:17] {dptl} best one was off .30 :)

[12:18] {nemo} dork

[12:18] {nemo} just got a call from the janitor

[12:20] {larisa} dp became swing ? :)

[12:20] {larisa} .30 is another story

[12:21] {dino} man wall of china on itri at .35

[12:21] {ese} alas poor dork....I knew him well

[12:21] {dptl} ye dp is looking at bottle of brandy right now ,thinking to start weeken early :)

[12:21] {ese} missed .50 dino

[12:22] {dino} you dog dp, i want in

[12:22] {dptl} come over :)

[12:22] {dino} 3 1/2 hrs to go

[12:23] {dino} haven't had a beer since sunday

[12:23] {Threei} great... chrysler creditors president lashed out at are getting named

[12:23] {Threei} next round of witch hunt in the making

[12:23] {dino} there is a "rule of law" isn't there?

[12:24] {Threei} tends to lose in court of popular opinion lately it seems

[12:24] {dino} in yobamas' world i loan you $ but you don't have to pay me back

[12:24] {Threei} Atlas Shrugged

[12:25] {dino} yes

[12:25] {Threei} I mentioned this analogy when the whole thing was just starting... looks more and more like direct quotes from there every day

[12:26] {Threei} look at SQNM flatlining just under .20

[12:26] {Threei} volume all but disappeared

[12:26] {Threei} this one is a candidate for a run closer to eod

[12:27] {Threei} we will have hopefuls for recovery buying for possible for gap... and dp will be drunk

[12:27] {dino} gpro maybe off of .00

[12:28] {Threei} consider buying .20 break and holding for retest of .40 at least

[12:28] {Threei} could take a few tries

[12:28] {Threei} just feels to me there are less sellers left on it than buyers

[12:28] {Threei} washout was very good yesterday

[12:29] {Threei} and the way it exploded today and sustained next stage of the move fits

[12:29] {dptl} where would be stop if it takes .20?

[12:30] {Threei} if sets up from here, under /15

[12:30] {dino} not touching it

[12:30] {Threei} PALM finally decent pullback

[12:30] {Threei} I want to keep stop tight on it dp, in order to be able to try a few times if it makes false start

[12:31] {dptl} ok ty

[12:32] {dino} now i see the reason for the brandy

[12:32] {Threei} lol

[12:32] {dptl} lol

[12:32] {Threei} can't believe it took you so long dino, and can't believe you even neded any reason

[12:33] {Threei} the very existence of good brandy or single malt is the reason in and of itself

[12:33] {dino} sometimes i just expect too much

[12:33] {Threei} we wll tend to overdo things...

[12:33] {dino} lphi

[12:34] {Threei} you expect too much... nemo worries too much... dp drinks too much...

[12:34] {dptl} how much is to much?

06[12:34] * Threei slaps dptl around a bit with a large bottle of 12 years old Glenlivet

[12:35] {Threei} that would too much - if you drank it without me

[12:39] {Threei} anyone grabbed it?

[12:39] {Threei} sized pullback, stalled... and market spiked sharply

[12:40] {dino} mant wakes up

[12:40] {Threei} delay PALM gave was window of opportunity

[12:40] {Threei} dead giveaway

[12:40] {Threei} come on, no one went for it??

[12:41] {Threei} why did I wake up to let you know... could trade it in my sleep...

[12:48] {Threei} recognize the moment when you get back in saddle,

[12:48] {Threei} start pushing harder again

[12:48] {ese} i knew there was something i was missing

[14:04] {dino} apol stopped -.12

[14:11] {wulff} Vad any reason a .26 break of PALM would not be valid setup around 2pm

[14:14] {wulff} except the fact that a short would have been better

[14:14] {Threei} lol

[14:14] {Threei} not really

[14:14] {Threei} could work

[14:14] {dino} stopped mant -.02

[14:15] {Threei} pretty much market dependent

[14:15] {Threei} but bounce from these levels is more interesting play

[14:16] {jfjf64} gm me entry boss

[14:16] {Threei} two ways

[14:16] {Threei} one is just buy and keep very tight stop

[14:16] {Threei} under 11

[14:16] {Threei} let's say buy .04

[14:17] {Threei} another is, wait for it to make couple moves between 11 and 11.05

[14:17] {Threei} then buy break

[14:17] {Threei} in first case, risk of not working is higher

[14:17] {wulff} another is hire someone to do it for you

[14:17] {Threei} in seond, risk of missing the play is higher
