Feb 04 2010
Not profitable but a good nonetheless day. We started with a few stops, then retreated and dug ourselves out of the hole with 4 winning trades in a row. Couple small stops with some little wins made a day slightly negative - but the discipline and cold-blooded approach exercised were enough to feel good about our trading today.
Session Time: Thu Feb 04 00:00:00 2010
[08:23] {Threei} (US) Preview: Initial Jobless Claims due at 08:30ET

[08:23] {Threei} - Continuing claims seen at 4.581Me v prior week at 4.602M (range seen from 4.400M to 4.630M)
[08:29] {nemo} V weeak this morning after good report
[08:30] {nemo} selling in the spy
[08:30] {Threei} *(US) INITIAL JOBLESS CLAIMS: 480K V 455KE; CONTINUING CLAIMS: 4.602M V 4.581ME
[08:30] {Threei} - Prior Initial Claims revised higher from 470K to K
[08:30] {Threei} - Prior Continuing Claims revised from 4.6...more... (related SHY SPY EUR/USD USD/JPY USO RTH )
[08:30] {nemo} selling in qs
[08:32] {strider} Whoever has the job of estimating claims is a bit too optimistic.........of course he has a secure gu'mint job, so things look pretty rosy from his purview.
[08:36] {Les} yeh well wait until they revise the present figures downwards...
[08:36] {Les} good afternoon
[08:36] {Threei} good morning
[08:36] {fernp} Good morning everybody
[08:36] {strider} Oh, good.....we already know the afternoon is going to be good.......you're a useful guy to have around, les.
[08:36] {nemo} yeah, and do the yearly reset...will probably be down at least another million
[08:37] {Les} lovely afternoon here strider. cold but sunny
[08:37] {Les} hi fern
[08:37] {fernp} les :-)
[08:38] {Threei} fern :)
[08:39] {strider} Not especially cold here, 31F, overcast, foggy, snow on the ground from last week.
[08:39] {strider} And lots of good deals on Toyotas.
[08:39] {Les} :)
[08:39] {Threei} this wionter we had about 30 minutes of snow, staying on the ground for about 15 m in after snowfall
[08:40] {Les} where is that pretty mountain you take photos of vad?
[08:40] {strider} So you're well prepared for the Olympics?
[08:40] {Threei} and I still don't see any deals offered by Toyota here
[08:40] {Les} the one covered in snow
[08:40] {Threei} that' s Mt Baker
[08:40] {Threei} Olympic Peninsula
[08:40] {Threei} US side
[08:41] {Threei} they truck the snow in strider
[08:41] {strider} I saw a news report on it the other day......we're having to import snow, I think.
[08:41] {strider} yeah.
[08:42] {strider} Snow Importer/exporter.......maybe that's an up and coming job.
[08:42] {strider} dino does a little of that, I think.
[08:42] {Threei} lol
[08:43] {strider} Vad, any thoughts on whether TM will recover quickly, or base for awhile?
[08:43] {Threei} this is highly liquid situation
[08:44] {Threei} kind of hard to make forecasts when new developments are coming in at the rate of 3-2 a day
[08:44] {Threei} remember yesterday's situation when chart formed bounce,
[08:44] {Threei} and govt official opened his mouth and said "stop driving Toyotas"?
[08:45] {strider} yeah...
[08:45] {Threei} of course he quickly retracted that
[08:45] {Threei} but if you are long, and get caught in 2 dollars drop
[08:46] {Threei} In general, this kind of things doesn't go asway quickly
[08:46] {Threei} it's a good case of "disaster never comes alone"
[08:46] {Les} ?
[08:46] {Les} you mean with TM only
[08:46] {Threei} yes
[08:46] {Threei} first it's floormats, then it's pedal,
[08:46] {strider} ok. I want to pick some up at some point for longer hold, but don't want to get in before I have to.
[08:47] {Threei} then Prius brakes,
[08:47] {Les} ok. understand why TM forecasts full year profits this morning
[08:47] {Threei} now there are suspicions that electrics and software is to blame
[08:47] {strider} or rather need to.
[08:47] {Threei} Senate hearings,
[08:48] {Threei} investigations,
[08:48] {strider} 5min chart shows nice bearish triangle.
[08:48] {Threei} when did Toyota knew what,
[08:48] {strider} Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!
[08:48] {Threei} expect all kinds of lawsuits
[08:48] {Threei} competitors gearing up to steal as many Toyota buyers as possible
[08:49] {strider} right.
[08:49] {Threei} residual values dropping
[08:49] {Threei} etc etc
[08:49] {Threei} it's a clear case of mounting problems
[08:49] {strider} TEOTWAWKI
[08:50] {Threei} unless you decode that next 5 seconds, I'll answer with JIORTWMKDQW
[08:50] {strider} The end of the world as we know it.
[08:50] {Threei} ah :)
[08:50] {Threei} for Toyotas it's rather BOHICA
[08:50] {strider} You're obviously not a serious conspiracy buff.
[08:50] {Threei} no, but they amuze me
[08:51] {strider} That why you keep nemo around?
[08:51] {Threei} I don't... I simply can't get rid of him
[08:51] {Les} MDT getting its butt kicked
06[08:51] * strider slaps nemo around a bit with a large Toyota.
[08:51] {strider} maybe that'll work.
[08:52] {Threei} - 9 cents?
[08:53] {Les} sorry, after hours yesterday
[08:54] {Les} well come to think about it
[08:54] {Les} $1 isn't really a butt kicking is it?
[08:54] {Threei} I expected this whole debacle with Toyota to help with my car shopping, either by giving me great deals for their cars or by pressuring Nissan to lower their price... not happening so far
[08:54] {Les} I am guilty of hyperbole
[08:54] {Les} SAAB's should be cheap
[08:54] {nemo} using logic in the market place....duh
[08:55] {ese} morning
[08:55] {Les} Good Morning Nemo :D
[08:55] {Threei} well, for 43 dolar stock it's not particularly impressive
[08:55] {nemo} G'day
[08:55] {Threei} ese :)
[08:55] {Les} your usual cheery self
[08:55] {Les} hi ese
[08:55] {nemo} dude
[08:55] {ese} dude vad les
[08:56] {Threei} not really interested in SAAB...
[08:56] {Les} after seeing toyota yesterday, I need to reappraise what butt kicking means to a stock
[08:56] {Les} was thinking of you and SAAB
[08:56] {Threei} were you around when BSC went under Les?
[08:57] {Les} no
[08:57] {Threei} I had a good fortune to issue a short call at 40
[08:57] {dino} gm all
[08:57] {nemo} some of the dot.bomb stocks...omfg
[08:57] {Threei} (I think it was 40)
[08:57] {Threei} dino :)
[08:57] {Les} hi dino
[08:57] {Threei} it dropped to under 20 if I remember corrected in the next 2 minutes
[08:57] {Les} kaching
[08:57] {strider} Didn't know you did options, vad.
[08:57] {Threei} someone commented "I never made so much money that quickly on 100 shares"
[08:58] {ese} dino
[08:58] {Threei} wasn't options
[08:58] {Threei} I meant call to short it
[08:58] {strider} oh...gotcha.
[08:58] {Les} ok. I'll save "butt kicking" for such events
[08:59] {Les} was thinking of you and SAAB cause FBI got involved
[08:59] {Les} apparently Spyker was partly owned by Russian billionaire with ties to mafia
[08:59] {Threei} my oreferred result would be to get a few thou kicked diown on my favorite Murano
[09:00] {Threei} alternatively, latest iteration of RAV4 looks not bad in its top line configuration... but a bit too... ummm... pedestrian
[09:01] {Les} never like that one. Why not Honda 4x4?
[09:01] {Threei} don't see a model in their lineup that I like
[09:01] {Threei} Pilot is too big
[09:01] {Threei} CRV is too rigid
[09:01] {Les} yeh the CRV
[09:01] {Threei} Crosstour is too low
[09:02] {Threei} sits too close tio the ground I mean
[09:03] {Threei} I disliked RAV's previous versions, they were on a smallish side... latest one is good size
[09:04] {nemo} girl's car
[09:04] {Threei} RAV??
[09:04] {ese} Landrover vad......very distictive
[09:04] {Threei} lol
[09:04] {ese} distinctive
[09:04] {nemo} mechanical nightmares
[09:05] {Les} yeh I hear landrovers are expensive to maintain
[09:05] {Les} but we used to thrash the defender series out in the bush. good truck
[09:05] {ese} ya they can be nemo especially the ones produced by Ford
[09:06] {strider} My next car will probably be a Ford Escape.
[09:07] {strider} My next motorcycle may be a mini-Cooper.

[09:11] {strider} I pull a 7 x 14 box trailer with mine sometimes...7-8000 lbs no problem.
[09:12] {Threei} I'd have to exhale to squeeze into it Les {G}

[09:13] {Threei} AMSC Wunderlich Securities Initiates AMSC with Buy, price target: $50
[09:13] {Threei} billy :)
[09:13] {strider} or is it the expedition?
[09:14] {strider} I get the names confused.
[09:14] {dino} watching ads, amsc, cacc, ioc, ma
[09:14] {Threei} Wunderlich Securities is obviously as puzzled about AMSC as we aree
[09:14] {nemo} spy an qS look poised for a rop
[09:15] {nemo} drop
[09:15] {dino} so is dino research
[09:15] {nemo} watched "Defiance" last night...good movie

[09:16] {Threei} aka as TTT
[09:16] {strider} vad, would you take a look at CELM. Holding overnight from 4.67. Should I put out an offer now, or wait till after open......based on uptrend yesterday.
[09:16] {strider} Or maybe just hang on and see how the day goes for it.
[09:16] {strider} It's an IPO...this is the first interest in it.
[09:16] {Threei} I don't see any news on it
[09:17] {larisa} gm all :)
[09:17] {Threei} larisa :)
[09:17] {Threei} no idea strider, sorry
[09:17] {Threei} it has no history, no chart, no news
[09:17] {Threei} it can do anything
[09:17] {strider} yep.
[09:17] {Threei} I just have nothing to go of
[09:18] {strider} information...much overrated.
[09:18] {Threei} it is... but in absence of it we at least have charts
[09:18] {Threei} and there is no even that on this one
[09:19] {Threei} larisa, my apologoes but:
[09:19] {Threei} guess who is on tv
[09:20] {larisa} at least before you did not ask me personally :)
[09:20] {Threei} no, question is still to general population
[09:20] {Threei} aplogies are to you personally
[09:20] {strider} sell 1/2 at 5.11.
[09:21] {Les} Natalie Imbruglio

[09:25] {strider} Anyway, would prefer Natalie Portman.
[09:25] {Threei} weant to watch AMSC more close today
[09:26] {dino} me too
[09:26] {Threei} yesterday's spike near close shows that selers are not that confident anymore, and buyers have their chance
[09:27] {Threei} at some point this nonsense will be over, and run-up will be impressive
[09:28] {dino} gap 33.22

[11:43] {nemo} so...fern has a little edge to that gentlemanly demeanor
[11:43] {strider} it was taking quite awhile to close them out.
[11:44] {nemo} fcx near lows
[11:48] {Threei} TM bounced into resistance
[11:48] {Threei} if trendline holds, should drop from here
[11:49] {Threei} with it's colstility nailing exact entries is rarely possible
[11:49] {Threei} .55 was resiastnce for stopp placement, entry was a bit fuzzy
[11:49] {dino} qcom sm l .55
[11:49] {nemo} wow...original
[11:50] {dino} stop lod
[11:50] {Threei} colstility?
[11:50] {Threei} that was supposwed to be volatility

[11:51] {Threei} lol
[11:51] {Threei} I am striving for excellence
[11:51] {Threei} and new achievements
[11:51] {nemo} confusion is not a worthy achievement

[11:52] {nemo} it's what you create among the minion
[11:53] {Threei} ok
[11:53] {Threei} Short Setup: TM .40 break
[11:53] {Threei} if stays below .55
[11:54] {Threei} half lot please
[11:57] {Threei} that .41 bid will decide the fate if this trade
[11:57] {Threei} if taken, should drop like a stone
[11:58] {Threei} come on sellers, give IBSS all he wants
[12:01] {Threei} alternatively, may we get some govt opfficial saying "no morwe totyota in this country"?
[12:01] {Threei} he can retract it 45 minutes later
[12:01] {Threei} 4-5 min
[12:01] {nemo} Toyota employs alot of americans
[12:01] {dino} out ads .65, +.40
[12:01] {Threei} should be enough for usa to get 5 bucks
[12:02] {Threei} hey, yesterday's suggestion to stop driving them was no less idiotic

[12:04] {dino} but les is more
[12:05] {nemo} More idiotic Dino?
[12:05] {strider} Question, vad. After entry on TM, a really nice ascending triangle developed. Do you ever exit the position because the chart start looking like a fade of your position?
[12:05] {nemo} sure strider...he's tightened stops and scratched positions before
[12:05] {Threei} I may, but in this case volume did not confirm the bullish formation
[12:06] {Threei} it was mostly about that bidder
[12:06] {strider} k
[12:14] {Threei} EU) EuroGroup's Juncker: Spain and Portugal are not a risk to the EuroZone; not expecting a public statement on FX
[12:14] {Threei} hmm
[12:14] {nemo} TM could have trouble between here and 85
[12:14] {nemo} .85
[12:15] {dino} sounds familiar, remembering back when c, bs, etc were not at risk
[12:15] {Threei} exactly my point dino
[12:15] {Threei} providing "hmmm" makes a point :)
[12:16] {Threei} when they start denying without being asked directly...
[12:19] {dino} few days ago greece was not in trouble
[12:19] {nemo} wasn't the mortgage crisis contained?

[12:33] {Threei} situation with TM
[12:33] {Threei} see,
[12:33] {nemo} oh, yeah, I mean't tm
[12:33] {nemo} duh
[12:33] {Threei} everything I hear about events development indicates its troubles as as far from over as my dancing skills from Bolshoi balerina
[12:34] {nemo} sorry...went over my head
[12:34] {Threei} and all my experience with this kind of drops tells me,
[12:34] {dino} it just may take time to fall 3i
[12:34] {Threei} this has a lot of room to downside
[12:35] {Threei} it's ok nemo, read couple times
[12:35] {nemo} o.. short .75 break .85 stop, half lot?
[12:36] {strider} nemo, what is o..?
[12:36] {nemo} o.k. sorry TM
[12:36] {Threei} what I am driving at is:
[12:36] {Threei} evferything in me says it will drop and drop and drop
[12:36] {nemo} no pun intended over toyota?
[12:37] {nemo} it is hugging the 200 ma
[12:37] {Threei} and we will see it so low, today's prices will seem like heaven for it
[12:37] {Threei} but I don't see cleasn short setup right now,
[12:37] {Threei} and its volatility and this neverending stream of news makes it very hard to stick woth position
[12:38] {dino} there are better worlds
[12:38] {Threei} I guess
[12:47] {Threei} AMSC, so far todays volume is way down vs those twqo days of selling
[12:48] {Threei} just making observations for the future
[12:50] {dino} watching it too

[13:20] {Les} Wouldn't surprise me to see this cost cutting CEO commit suicide before this is over
[13:20] {patience} sadly you are more than likely accurate in your prediction
[13:21] {Les} that's a lot of shame heaping on him
[13:21] {Threei} Reportedly EU document prepared for G7 meeting says EU will urge US and China to lead the rebalancing of the global economy

[13:25] {Threei} 72 break is obvious short trigger
[13:25] {Threei} how well obvious can work on it, is whole separate issue
[13:26] {nemo} I agree with Patience...this would actually be seen as good for US auto unions
[13:27] {dino} what does that have to do w/anything else?
[13:27] {Threei} I agree dino, market drops independtly of Toyota
[13:28] {dino} my gut feel is govt debt default worries are scaring people the way leh, bear, banks ect did

[14:29] {nemo} was a triple top
[14:29] {nemo} fighting horizontal resistance the 200 also

[14:41] {Threei} does it really have options?
[14:41] {Threei} not to cooperate? as in "we won't show you our Prius"?

[14:47] {fernp} great book, Les
[14:47] {Threei} get it in the library, read once, decide if you want it on your shelf
[14:47] {Les} pffffffff
[14:47] {Les} your a foreigner in your country
[14:47] {Les} so am I
[14:47] {nemo} you'd be a foreigner in Oz
[14:48] {Les} :)
[14:48] {Threei} I am foreigner everywhere
[14:48] {Threei} stranger in a strange land
[14:48] {Les} we have small but very competent library in our village
[14:48] {nemo} Les probably a frickin' alien
[14:48] {Les} but not for english speaker
[14:48] {Les} belt up nemo
[14:49] {nemo} always
[14:49] {dino} and i am a legend in my own mind
[14:49] {Threei} libraries here can order anything for you, if they don't have it
[14:49] {Les} you are well endowed with public service
[14:49] {Threei} don't know if thats the case in your neck of the woods
[14:49] {Les} me no
[14:49] {Les} the imbeciles running this village don't put much stock in cultural activities like reading
[14:49] {nemo} 2nd leg up coming
[14:50] {Threei} so, let's reshort VXX if triggers again?
[14:50] {Les} TM 72 break?

[14:53] {Threei} I really don't know what to do with TM
[14:53] {Threei} IMO, this is $30 stock
[14:53] {Threei} at best
[14:54] {Les} stop that, you're making me sweat
[14:54] {Threei} but then again, there are brokerages that think AMSC is $50 stock
[14:54] {dino} wow vad. it's just a recall, happens all the time. a beer says it doesn't touch 65
[14:54] {Threei} and look how well it works for them
[14:55] {Threei} I don't see it as just a recall dino...
[14:55] {Threei} in my view it's much more than that
[14:55] {dino} guess not
[14:55] {Threei} it's a perfect storm
[14:55] {Les} I think they've got design and structural issues dino
[14:55] {nemo} out rimm +.10
[14:55] {dino} was 92 when this started
[14:55] {dino} gj nemo
[14:56] {Threei} their cars were never bought because they were cool or sexy,
[14:56] {nemo} gotta' go
[14:56] {Les} well not structural, but design issues
[14:56] {dino} cya nemo
[14:56] {Threei} they were embodiment of rekiability
[14:56] {Les} ciao nemo
[14:56] {Threei} these issues hit them in their very core
[14:56] {nemo} that was a fun day of periodontal work
[14:56] {dino} well, anything can happen, but i think 65 ois floor
[14:56] {nemo} only Bear is happy with me today
[14:57] {Threei} and it happens at the mnoment when their political enemies are mortivated more than ever to do all they can to kill them
[14:57] {Les} and consumer is tapped out as well
[14:57] {Threei} look how these things get blown out of proportion
[14:57] {Threei} by some statments you'd think Toyota cars are death traps
[14:59] {nemo} I gotta go but rimm weak lower high
[14:59] {Threei} oh just go
[15:00] {nemo} I'll be late tomorrow.
[15:00] {Les} so would you risk overnight holds on TM?
[15:00] {Threei} nope
[15:01] {Threei} risk is simply too high
[15:01] {Les} ok, so its going to be on our watch list every day
[15:01] {dino} imo, autos = price issue]
[15:01] {dino} brb
[15:02] {nemo} that was a .15 drop in RIMM...now I'm gone
[15:02] {Les} 200 and 50 ma glued together and spy has fallen below them
[15:03] {Les} s TM .90. stop 72
[15:04] {Threei} wow
[15:04] {Threei} not available for short anymore
[15:04] {Les} out +.10
[15:05] {Les} become trader's preferred toy eh?
[15:05] {Threei} I guess
[15:05] {Threei} they come and go in and out of fashion
[15:05] {Les} funny that Magoo is not here to play
[15:05] {Threei} ugh
[15:08] {Les} s TM .79
[15:09] {Les} out +.15
[15:10] {Les} sigh. back to flat again
[15:10] {Threei} lol
[15:10] {Les} any decent trades while i was out?
[15:10] {Threei} consider it practice day
[15:10] {Les} it is good practice
[15:10] {Threei} I don't remember at what point you went away
[15:11] {Les} and I understand from Larisa now that day's like this the effort is just not to lose money
[15:11] {Threei} we had 4 winning ones in a row which took us to flat for the day, then two small stops
[15:11] {Les} yeh I left when you made it flat
[15:11] {Threei} then you haven't missed anything
[15:11] {Threei} asdide from nemo trying to pick a fight with you
[15:12] {Threei} but you can always take your rebenge tomorrow
[15:12] {Threei} revenge too
[15:16] {Les} yes always another day
[15:17] {Threei} view today this way:
[15:17] {Threei} shaky start,
[15:18] {Threei} often setting traders up for revenge trading which digs deeper and deeper hole,
[15:18] {Threei} instead of falling into that trap, we retreated, re-grouped
[15:18] {fernp} trying 21 break on FAZ
[15:18] {Threei} and fought all the way back in a disciplined calm fashion.
[15:18] {fernp} stop under .90 small shares
[15:19] {Threei} This skill in and of itself costs a lot
[15:19] {Threei} if we practiced in it today and succeeded - fine
[15:19] {fernp} 1:1
[15:19] {Les} sure agreed
[15:19] {Threei} and now fern proceeds to make money, which is totally disgusting
[15:19] {Les} I have an appreciation for potentials of daytrading, if not yet to enjoy lucrative salary entitlements and perks
[15:20] {dino} gj fern
[15:20] {patience} what perks
[15:20] {fernp} ty
[15:20] {dino} ok larisa your break of 10k in swight
[15:20] {dino} sight
[15:20] {Les} why, : working with you patience :)
[15:21] {Les} This self deprecating style of work communication is most enjoyable
[15:22] {larisa} i told you dino 4 days ago we will break it :)
[15:22] {dino} you may be right
[15:22] {larisa} today for sure!! :)
[15:22] {larisa} lol
[15:22] {patience} ok, les, we'll let yo on the island :)
[15:23] {patience} you should have heard vad when he moved here
[15:23] {patience} he didn't want anymore to be allowed to move here
[15:23] {Les} anyone?
[15:23] {Threei} he'd have to go through nemo who doesn't let too many to make the shore
[15:24] {fernp} Good evening everybody. See you all tomorrow
[15:24] {dino} cya fern
[15:24] {Les} ciao fern. c u

[15:24] {Threei} take care ferrn
[15:24] {Les} what's housing prices on your island?
[15:25] {Threei} second worst in the country
[15:25] {Threei} worst as in unaffordable
[15:25] {larisa} only daytraders can afford it :)
[15:25] {Les} typical or average price you can quote?
[15:25] {patience} prices still keep going up and demand keeps strong
[15:26] {Les} can't be worse than what we are living in now
[15:26] {Les} oh you canadians might have bubble to burst in real estate if I remember correctly
[15:26] {Threei} The average price for single family homes sold in Greater Victoria last month was $644,678 down from $651,316 in December.
[15:27] {Threei} The median price of single family homes sold rose to $595,000. The six-month average was $615,271.
[15:28] {Les} here 100 square metres (300ft) - $650'000+
[15:28] {larisa} wha interest you are paying on your mortgage in Canadaa these days, same as US?
[15:28] {Threei} I don't know US numbers
[15:28] {larisa} atound 5-6%
[15:28] {Threei} 5 years fixed is around 5.5% I think
[15:28] {patience} i just got 4.05 for 5 years
[15:29] {dino} les, 300 sq ft? you mean thousand right?
[15:29] {larisa} 300 sq meters
[15:29] {Les} we're talking about Europe man. 100 square metres
[15:30] {dino} 900 sq ft?
[15:30] {larisa} oh I see
[15:30] {Les} 300 square feet
[15:30] {Les} apartment

[15:30] {Les} 200 square metre houses - 1 million +
[15:31] {Les} welcome to switzerland
[15:31] {dino} i'm in 2500sq ft house, about $350k
[15:31] {larisa} 100 sq meters = 1076 sq feet dino
[15:31] {Les} 800 sq. metres. wow
[15:31] {Les} does it?
[15:32] {Les} crap I can never remember conversion
[15:32] {Threei} lol
[15:32] {larisa} dino's house is 232 sq meters
[15:32] {dino} w/7 acres
[15:33] {larisa} nice :)
[15:33] {Les} larisa is right
[15:33] {dino} lucky
[15:34] {larisa} i had 3 acres, overlandscaped :) moved to half an acre and very happy :)
[15:34] {dino} understand i only mow 2 acres
[15:35] {Les} of course. 1 metre is 3.28. so 3.28 x 3.28 x 100
[15:35] {Threei} USGS reports earthquake offshore of Northern California; initial report is 6.0 magnitude
[15:35] {Threei} - USGS says no tsunami warning to be issued.
[15:35] {Threei} - Occurred 50 miles/80 Km southwest of Eureka,
[15:39] {Threei} 83% Blame Deficit on Politicians Unwillingness To Cut Spending
[15:44] {Les} CAT b/d?
[15:45] {Threei} can't tell
[15:45] {Threei} late bounce is just as possible
[15:45] {Threei} nothing rally-like, but vould be just enough to ruin short
[15:46] {Les} y
[15:46] {Threei} although my heart is still on downside
[15:46] {Threei} and bad job numbers tomorrow
[15:47] {Threei} which is likelt to send market down screaming, with strong bounce later in the day
[15:48] {dino} fsys gap- fill from nov.
[15:51] {dino} going to be one heck of a bad annual revision, expecting additional 800,000 to 1,000,000
[15:51] {Threei} no kidding
[15:51] {Threei} they dumpened effect though by pre-announcing it in a way
[15:52] {dino} and yet they still push heathcare, when nobody will have job to buy it
[15:52] {Threei} insignificsnt details
[15:52] {Les} what they give revised figures for last year tomorrow?
[15:53] {Threei} sounds like that Les
[15:53] {Threei} and forrecast looks far from rosey
[15:53] {dino} yes
[15:53] {Les} its disgusting to say
[15:53] {Les} but as trader I'm interested to see what happens
[15:53] {Threei} why disgusting
[15:54] {Threei} as fact of life it already happened
[15:54] {Les} well I didn't want to say that I am actually looking forward to market dropping like a bomb
[15:54] {Les} sounds inhumane
[15:54] {Threei} how you as a trader react is no different from how anyone in an y profession reacts - trying to adjust and find their place in it
[15:55] {larisa} they will surprise and say no unemployed :) DOW will open at 11K ..
[15:55] {Threei} haha
[15:55] {Les} lol why not?
[15:55] {Threei} also, there is no negative or positive connotation to market direction... it's misguided mindset
[15:55] {dino} get out your 9k hats
[15:55] {Threei} both are necessary
[15:55] {Les} true
[15:57] {Threei} as already quoted by me Master and Margarita says "yuo would rip out all the trees on Earth in your idiotic strive to eliminate shadows"
[15:57] {Les} wfc might bounce here
[15:57] {Les} don't know this quote
[15:58] {Threei} was a retort to someone who expressed his hatred to evil
[15:59] {billyc} gn all thank you
