[11:10] {Chaeron} oh... many thanks Vad... nice one... slow but nice
[11:11] {Chaeron} that one sounds better in Russian.. :)
[11:11] {Threei} RIMM slow... who would have thought we were to hear that ever
[11:12] {magoo} out 96
[11:12] {magoo} TY vad
[11:12] {tomg} me too, ty vad
[11:12] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} I wish I would've played RIMM :(....but still good morning on other trades :) thanks Vad
[11:13] {Threei} welcome guys
[11:13] {magoo} U DA MAN
[11:13] {Chaeron} there will be more Mr. Howell
[11:14] {GeoArb} quick question ....do people here use a separate charting software than their execution platform?
[11:14] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} I'm kinda sketchy 'bout RIMM APPL.....old war wounds
[11:14] {GeoArb} for e.g esignal AND laser
[11:15] {Threei} why Geo
[11:16] {Threei} laser has its own charting
[11:16] {Chaeron} nice ones too :)
[11:16] {GeoArb} i guess its my distrust holdover from my futures trading days
[11:16] {Threei} I see no need for axtra expense
[11:16] {GeoArb} never show setups on execution...... so curious
[11:17] {GeoArb} ok
[11:17] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} esignal is excellent but too expensive unless you're making consistant $$$
[11:17] {GeoArb} i have tradestation with some programmed patterns... so wondering if i need it
[11:17] {GeoArb} will trade thru laser though
[11:18] {Chaeron} never a slow ex on Laser with me Geo... too fast sometimes... (cause of my second doubts :)
[11:18] {GeoArb} ok
[11:18] {GeoArb} thanks guys
[11:20] {bruce} personally geo - I just use laser - hate the charts though - esignal is much cleaner and easier to read
[11:20] {magoo} personnally, laser charts are by far best i've used
[11:20] {magoo} been w/ 5 other brokers too before laser
[11:21] {bruce} don't want to spend money on extras now but would get esignal if capital allowed
[11:21] {GeoArb} thanks for the tips... starting to close down tradestation
[11:21] {GeoArb} 5k stuck there for no reason
[11:21] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} Its better to get used to chartware like Lasers...I know some guys that get used to the luxuries of esignal and then cant go back to basic chartware ever again
[11:21] {GeoArb} true
[11:22] {GeoArb} i have wasted months on ninja... then realized i was enjoying programming it more than trading so left :)
[11:22] {GeoArb} simplify
[11:23] {bruce} if you do any longer term trades it's nice to have a wekly chart - and laser doesn't even have that at all
[11:23] {GeoArb} i can always use my longtermbroker for that
[11:23] {GeoArb} thanks
[11:23] {GeoArb} dont want to distract you guys from making money too much :0
[11:23] {Threei} iof you ned weekly chart why would need any software at all?
[11:24] {Threei} go to yahoo or any other financial webpage
[11:24] {Threei} and get it for free
[11:24] {dino} indeed
[11:24] {GeoArb} yes
[11:24] {Threei} it's not like you need weekly chart real time
[11:24] {magoo} u gonna get it now bruce : )
[11:24] {bruce} true vad - justa nuisance to look up diferent places
[11:24] {Threei} 15 min delay is acceptable I'd think :)
[11:25] {Threei} I'll be damned if I pay for whol,e other charting package to avid that nuisance :)
[11:25] {GeoArb} i must say this is one of the most focussed rooms i have been in
[11:25] {Threei} avoid
[11:25] {GeoArb} thanks guys
[11:26] {dino} you won't thank us when your memory goes
[11:26] {dino} :)
[11:27] {dptl} wm news or what?
[11:27] {dino} y
[11:27] {Threei} HEARING RENEWED RUMORS THAT WM WILL GET A CAPITAL INFUSION FROM WARREN BUFFETT - today's rumor is that Buffett will infuse about $3B into WM through a 9% convertible security
[11:27] {dptl} oh...ty
[11:27] {magoo} WaMu?
[11:28] {Threei} over 1.5 points on vague rumor?
[11:28] {bruce} bsc may bounce near here dino
[11:29] {magoo} RIMM may xplode..mot in yet
[11:29] {dino} hmmm bsc, might be easier to short wm
[11:30] {magoo} ii sent warren email...my acct needs modest capital infusion
[11:30] {dino} lol
[11:31] {magoo} hey vad..have u noticed imprionvemt in my typing?
[11:31] {magoo} been taking a class
[11:31] {Threei} I did too but I probably shouldn't have informed him that I intended to disappear in thin air forever after that infusion
[11:31] {dino} just what we need, more from magoo
[11:31] {Threei} I suspect that could make him a little hesitant
[11:31] {Chaeron} "imprionvemt " - what a word to mess up on in that last post.. LOL
[11:31] {bruce} nvda possible long setup here
[11:32] {Threei} chaeron... I was getting myself off the floor about that :)
[11:32] {Threei} certain imprionvemt mags... but got more work to do still
[11:32] {dino} snmx
[11:32] {Threei} goods start though
[11:35] {bruce} out nvda - qucik scalp +.10
[11:36] {dino} gj
[11:37] {bruce} lol peanut trade dino but stop was only 3c
[11:38] {dino} it all adds up
[11:38] {bruce} yes
[11:41] {Threei} I for one never ignored those
[11:41] {bruce} any thoughts on rimmsky as retracement long vad?
[11:41] {Threei} when I see little but very clear and reliable scalp I grab it
[11:41] {bruce} looks like support about .50 with trend up now
[11:41] {Threei} no, not very clear bruce
[11:41] {bruce} k
[11:41] {Threei} can work or fail with the same odds
[11:42] {Threei} and stop is not as negligible that could grab it for the little risk alone
[11:42] {bruce} I like it long here - market not helping though
[11:45] {GeoArb} one more Q :) trade the news text vs briefing?
[11:45] {GeoArb} any tips?
[11:46] {Threei} brie4fing is not exactly news service
[11:46] {GeoArb} ok
[11:46] {GeoArb} seems TTN is 85 after realitytrader discount for equities
[11:46] {Threei} hmm?
[11:46] {Threei} that sounds very high

[12:51] {curtisweese} out at 95.02...just paid the $7 trade fee and bailed......chickened out!! doh
[12:51] {judi} still looking rimm? long or short?
[12:52] {curtisweese} darn! i'm such a chicken...sigh
[12:53] {curtisweese} would have been a huge play
[12:55] {Threei} SEC"S COX: AGENCY AHS COMFORT WITH BSC'S CAPITAL
[12:55] {Threei} this is what sent indices up just now
[12:55] {Threei} IMO... this bounce won't hold
[12:56] {curtisweese} s RIMM again 95.06
[12:56] {Threei} BSC rumors were largely discounted as unsubstantil before this news
[12:57] {curtisweese} too early...doh!!!
[12:57] {judi} just did rimm .10 long
[12:57] {Threei} sheesh... you guys are all so trigger happy :)
[12:59] {Threei} amazing timing whoever did that headline... just when market lost important support and was ready for a plunge
[13:00] {magoo} plunge control team vad
[13:00] {Threei} if that's them, gotta give it to them...
[13:01] {curtisweese} that one hurt. -$.23 on short...doh
[13:01] {dino} efut
[13:01] {Threei} curtis, wait a second before entering next one
[13:01] {Threei} let me say couple words
[13:02] {curtisweese} ok....
[13:02] {Threei} promise you won't hit entry until I am done? :)
[13:02] {curtisweese} yes
[13:02] {Threei} 'cause with you it's alway a question, you know, lol
[13:02] {curtisweese} hahaha
[13:02] {Threei} this last entry on a short side was IMO pure impulsive trade on your part
[13:02] {judi} what's lol?
[13:03] {Threei} never take the trade like this on price alone
[13:03] {curtisweese} laugh out loud
[13:03] {Threei} laughing out loud, judi
[13:03] {Threei} here is what I mean
[13:03] {Threei} some trades allow for particular very defined setup
[13:03] {Threei} in such cases we call it to the cent,
[13:03] {Threei} like:
[13:04] {Threei} .51 trigger, .129 stop
[13:04] {Threei} but then there are others,
[13:04] {Threei} they have general idea of the trade, for instance:
[13:04] {Threei} short bounce into resistance 25.50
[13:04] {Threei} on this kind you don't go just off the price .50,
[13:05] {Threei} you need action to confirm that resistance holds
[13:05] {curtisweese} ahh
[13:05] {Threei} as an example:
[13:05] {Threei} stock bounces into .50,
[13:05] {Threei} can't break it,
[13:05] {Threei} retreats to .40,
[13:05] {Threei} bounces into .50 again,
[13:05] {Threei} can't break it
[13:05] {Threei} and loses .40
[13:05] {Threei} This is where you get your short on .40 breakdown
[13:05] {judi} referring to a specific stock as example?
[13:06] {Threei} If however you try to short of the price alone
[13:06] {curtisweese} i'm too greedy and trying to get the extra .10 which is wrong
[13:06] {Threei} you run risk to short into pure buying
[13:06] {Threei} and stock will simpl,y run you over cutting through that resistance
[13:06] {Threei} no judi, describing typical scenario
[13:06] {curtisweese} how about a team short now? :)
[13:07] {Threei} have a look at RIMM right now
[13:07] {Threei} .60 closest resistance,
[13:07] {Threei} .45 closest support
[13:07] {Threei} you want a structured meaningful short - short break of support IF resistance is holding
[13:07] {Threei} then you have nicely defined stop above .60
[13:08] {Threei} and good chance for your tarde to work
[13:08] {Threei} it's up to trading gods whether it works or not of course
[13:08] {Threei} but you did your part
[13:08] {curtisweese} i shorted it at .4
[13:08] {Threei} and have a look ... you got 1:1 already
[13:09] {Threei} with that short into spike you didn't even have a criteria for a stop placement
[13:09] {curtisweese} out +$.18
[13:09] {Threei} as chart never showed any indication of the nearest resistance.
[13:09] {Threei} don't shoot from the hip, structure your trades
[13:09] {curtisweese} should have done half, but am gunshy ...which is good!
[13:09] {Threei} you have one good book in your possession
[13:10] {Threei} which describes the process of structuring the trade in such details
[13:10] {Threei} that I want to shake author's hand if/when I meet him
[13:10] {Threei} read it, follow it
[13:10] {Threei} it's not there just for show, trust me
[13:11] {judi} which book?
[13:11] {Threei} The Master Profit Plan
[13:11] {Threei} I know curtis has it
[13:11] {Threei} (I also suspect he never bothered to read more than table of content)
[13:11] {judi} author? you?
[13:11] * Threei is hiding under the nearest rock
[13:11] {Threei} yes, lol
[13:12] {dino} lol
[13:12] {curtisweese} hahahahah...no, i've read about half of books.....went through all videos though....next week i finish everything
[13:12] {dino} bruce efut
[13:12] {Threei} cool beans curtis
[13:12] {curtisweese} i have to take off early for dr appt today.....blech!!!
[13:13] {Threei} I hope blech is not the diagnosis
[13:13] {dino} no, beans are the problem
[13:13] {Threei} oh boy... crawling under the desk laughing
[13:19] {curtisweese} bought RIMM breaking through 95.61
[13:19] {judi} still looking at rimm?
[13:21] {curtisweese} out +.$.10
[13:21] {curtisweese} just getting back the .10 i lost earlier
[13:21] {curtisweese} now for the .20 i lost
[13:26] {curtisweese} in on RIMM from 95.82
[13:27] {curtisweese} .out on RIMM +.11
[13:27] {magoo} boy that guy can dance
[13:29] {judi} vad are we watching rimm, resistance became 96.01, now keeping going up or what?
[13:29] {bruce} you shorted efut dino?
[13:30] {Threei} I don't have any clean setup here for it
[13:30] {dino} couldn't get it
[13:31] {judi} that's what we want to understand, we see it go and want to jump in, know it's wrong
[13:31] {Threei} the reason for entry is a valid setup in terms of one's sytem, not simply the fact of the movement
[13:31] {bruce} k
[13:32] {bruce} watching wlp for long dino
[13:33] {dino} ouch
[13:34] {bruce} still a short at moment
[13:35] {dino} aet may be safer
[13:35] {dino} masi bounce in the mking
[13:36] {dino} darn patrial fill 100 at .30
[13:38] {curtisweese} RIMM looks to hve bounced off resistance....i'm in at 96.07 for the short
[13:39] {bruce} aet looks good
[13:39] {bruce} long .70
[13:39] {bruce} stop .62
[13:40] {curtisweese} out on RIMM short +.09 only
[13:41] {curtisweese} i will try and get back before close.....thanks for the lessons Threei....you da man!!!!@2
[13:41] {curtisweese} should have stayed with that short...doh
[13:42] {judi} what's doh?
[13:42] {curtisweese} homer simpson
[13:43] {curtisweese} cartoon "The Simpsons"
[13:44] {dino} cracking me up
[13:54] {judi} nvda set up? earlier cup handle?
[13:55] {Threei} questionable one
[13:55] {judi} k
[13:55] {Threei} has a chance to work if NQ stages big move
[13:55] {Threei} but overall, it's a bit narrow today
[13:55] {Threei} would require a lot of help from market
[13:56] {judi} good to know
[14:00] {magoo} can someone here convert millimeters {mm} to inches for magoo??
[14:00] {Threei} how many mm?
[14:00] {magoo} 740 mm
