[08:58] {Threei} AAPL looks happy so far
[09:01] {cosmo} LVLT: # Level 3 and IBM Announce Patent Cross-LicensePR Newswire(Thu 8:00am)
[09:01] {cosmo} 2.45 high so far
[09:02] {magoo} we been up 4 straight sessions now vad, sooner or later a normal pullbk at least imho
[09:05] {Threei} yes... but it's so obvious that I have hard time accepting it :)
[09:06] {dptl} good morning all
[09:08] {magoo} right, but i do not mean today, just aware of it
[09:08] {Threei} dp :)
[09:08] {magoo} most pain to most would be continued strength here
[09:09] {magoo} then when shorts capit and everybody just can not take being out and goes in long........POW BEAR TRAP
[09:09] {Threei} eqzaktly
[09:10] {Threei} bear rallies can be extremely powerful, and that's what we see
[09:10] {esemde} good morning.....
[09:10] {Threei} ese :)
[09:13] {dino} gm all
[09:13] {Threei} dino :)
[09:13] {esemde} dino
[09:14] {dino} :)
[09:15] {esemde} just reading your post mags about being up 4 sessions....seems like indexes are at the top of a consolidation ....possible breakout pattern
[09:18] {dino} pull up a chart take a look at ndx nov - feb
[09:19] {esemde} i'm there dino
[09:19] {Threei} clean bear
[09:19] {esemde} yup...

[09:20] {dino} 1/25 and 2/1 1864
[09:20] {esemde} yup...
[09:24] {esemde} hmmmm I still we have a bounce of some kind coming....maybe to1900 to 1950 level on the NDX
[09:25] {esemde} short covering bounce maybe?
[09:26] {Threei} quite possible ese... squeeze is a good way for bear market to make sure it proceeds lower with as few on board as possible
[09:27] {Threei} problem with reading it is, market is very subjected to all kinds of news/rumors, easily moved by them
[09:28] {Threei} slightest hint of those, and mood changes on a dime
[09:28] {Threei} that's how those insane spikes are created, like one on Friday
[09:28] {esemde} indeed
[09:29] {_leo1} hi
[09:30] {esemde} leo
[09:30] {Threei} leo :)
[09:31] {Threei} watching AAPL for bounce
[09:31] {magoo} me too
[09:31] {magoo} mkts down vad 91 though
[09:32] {Threei} from under 126
[09:32] {magoo} would have been great short..i was considering
[09:32] {magoo} 1215.50 more like
[09:33] {magoo} 125.50
[09:34] {Threei} scalped quickly on 126 cross back... you would have to be much quicker on the trigger than ii you waited for exact call
[09:37] {magoo} its gonna be a good short scalp
[09:39] {Threei} RIMM .20 break long
[09:39] {Threei} stop under 111
[09:39] {Threei} 1:2
[09:39] {Threei} out
[09:39] {Threei} 1:3, crying

[09:40] {Threei} crying again as RIMM hits 1:4
[09:42] {Threei} full buck
[09:43] {Threei} keeping an eye on COIN
[09:43] {Threei} despite SEED debacle shows strength still
[09:44] {Threei} AAPL 127.50 nearest support
[09:45] {Threei} won't hold probably
[09:47] {Threei} if holding above .30, .61 long
[09:47] {Threei} sheesh
[09:47] {Threei} don't chase
[09:48] {magoo} maybe rimm bounce vad? a little slower
[09:48] {Threei} whole trade would have taken like 5 seconds
[09:48] {Threei} and I missed it while typed, lol
[09:49] {Threei} 128 break long AAPl again if stays above .75
