[10:14] {bruce} nflx trying to break again
[10:14] {Threei} VLNC, break of .35 deserves a try for a swing trade, IMO
[10:14] {Threei} it can take several tries to find right entry
[10:15] {Threei} two possible ways to do that:
[10:15] {Threei} 1, take .35 break, keep stop under 2
[10:15] {Threei} let it trade and see if it can take .55, high from that news days
[10:15] {Threei} 2. keep stop under .25,
[10:16] {magoo} yes
[10:16] {Threei} be ready to dump and look for another entry either on bigger pullback or on big break of .55

[13:41] {Threei} lol
[13:43] {Threei} too bad it's not shortable
[13:43] {curtisweese} now you want to short CREE ...poor CREE
[13:45] {Threei} it's a long if breaks 34 and short if can't - but with such tight stop I wouldfeel comfortable taking short position and closing it and switching to long if it breaks
[13:46] {Threei} however since you are unavailable for shorting, CREE, how about you indulge us and set up long?
[13:47] {curtisweese} that block at 34 is getting really small now finally! :)
[13:47] {Threei} I dunno about getting small... MADF and BOOK dtill show quite a size
[13:48] {Threei} dtill = stil

[14:19] {Threei} closest resistance for stop placement is .50
[14:20] {lumdus} yeah, that's why i though .35 .. but i doubt i'll get it. looks damm weak. very weak
[14:20] {Threei} market weakens more, yeah
[14:20] {Threei} but you know how it goes these days
[14:21] {Threei} everything looks ready to go to hell in basket, and we are getting bounce, then new highs, lol
[14:21] {lumdus} you said that right.

[14:43] {Threei} guys, watch AMZN level 2 please, want to show you something
[14:43] {magoo} k
[14:43] {lumdus} ok..
[14:43] {lumdus} out amzn +.10
[14:43] {lumdus} watching now..
[14:44] {curtisweese} nyny heading towards 2.50 if that matters still :)
[14:44] {lumdus} stop on csx 48.62
[14:45] {Threei} here it is
[14:45] {Threei} the pattern that I wanted to show you:
[14:45] {lumdus} what pattern ?
[14:46] {Threei} bids and offers move in a kind of ladder way,
[14:46] {Threei} while there is no real movement and very few prints,
[14:46] {Threei} they (bids and offers) move by 10-15 cents quickly up and down
[14:46] {Threei} usually it happens when NQ stalled
[14:46] {Threei} so there is no real move,
[14:47] {Threei} and sometimes it happens during the move, kind of sudden shakeout.
[14:47] {Threei} many attribute this phenomenon to program trading
[14:47] {Threei} computer-generated move
[14:47] {Threei} whatever it is, it has two uses
[14:48] {Threei} first, for "normal" trading it oftne gives a better entry or exitr
[14:48] {lumdus} but sheake us out alot
[14:48] {Threei} if you trade this kind of stocks often, you surely observed this
[14:49] {Threei} second, when you don't have anything else to trade and market is locked in tight range or uncertain,
[14:49] {Threei} those teleporting bids and offers can be used for a quick scalp
[14:49] {Threei} smal but very quick and easy
[14:49] {curtisweese} there went nyny spike
[14:49] {Threei} those program generated bids and offers are usually thin and there are 3-5 of them
[14:50] {lumdus} vad, you need to move very fast and i found that you can't real sell them .. unless you have very small lot.
[14:50] {Threei} so position should be small enough to grab the liquidity shown on level 2
[14:50] {lumdus} anything more then 1K it's really not good for.
[14:50] {Threei} even 1K will probably be too big for this kind
[14:51] {Threei} it's for a quick small money
[14:51] {lumdus} right
[14:51] {Threei} kind of lunch money
[14:51] {Threei} but then again... 1K for this kind of stocks is too big for most traders anyway
[14:52] {lumdus} csx stop b/e 48.65 .. damm what a slow stock
[14:52] {Threei} and btw lum... I don't know what you mean by "can't really sell to them"
[14:52] {Threei} I do
[14:52] {Threei} gotta be very fast, yes
[14:52] {Threei} on both entry and exit
[14:54] {Threei} I don't suggest it as method of trading for everyone or for all times, it's for those who want to extract some small quick money while there is nothing else to do, and who can trade in and out of position very quickly
[14:54] {Threei} mags
[14:55] {Threei} look at NYNY...
[14:57] {magoo} yeah
[14:57] {lumdus} out csx +.05 crap get move

[15:09] {Threei} lookinf at UDRL, trying to see if there is anything to do with it
[15:10] {Threei} toughie... would prefer it to finish here and break out tomorrow
[15:10] {Threei} that would be a trade I'd take with my eyes closed
[15:10] {Threei} break today, not sure
[15:14] {Threei} SOLF,
[15:14] {Threei} .60 support,
[15:14] {Threei} FSLR makes new highs,
[15:14] {Threei} if NQ turns up again too, worth a try
[15:15] {Threei} the closer to .60 the better
