[08:48] {brian3579} gm all
[08:48] {Threei} brian :)
[08:48] {Threei} [15:39] {Threei} who wants to own this stock overnight
[08:49] {Threei} that was about FNM
[08:49] {Threei} Raven... is this the end of the world this time?
[08:51] {Raven} 3 oh sure
[08:51] {Raven} 3 just another end
[08:51] {Threei} I am not even sure I am kidding this time... :)
[08:51] {cosmo} its the end of the week i think
[08:51] {Threei} I mean, looking at FNM/FRE situation,
[08:51] {Raven} 3 checking that
[08:52] {Raven} 3 you're right, cosmo :)
[08:52] {Threei} if they falter, which seems like real possibility more and more
[08:52] {cosmo} phew
[08:52] {Raven} 3 I know
[08:52] {Threei} we have two scenarios
[08:52] {Threei} Either-
[08:52] {Threei} 1. FRE and FNM face failure, and either whole system goes to the hell leaving financial pyramid in ruins and America without financing, killing the lifestyle for a middle class, chasing away well-off and taking poor to the streets with sticks and stones;
[08:52] {magoo} morning
[08:52] {Threei} or
[08:53] {Threei} magoo :)
[08:53] {Threei} 2. Goverment bails FRE/FNM out, leaving shareholders with zero, putting their GSEs on taxpayers shoulders, sending USD to the crapper, sskyrocketing oil and inflation, creating huge moral hazard
[08:53] {Threei} correct me if you see where I am wrong
[08:53] {Threei} I will be more than happy to stand corrected
[08:54] {Raven} 3 Govt will bail them out ... no choice
[08:54] {cosmo} then flea to costa rica?
[08:54] {Threei} it means oil in the sky, inflation turning into hyperinflation, probably downgrade of USA credit
[08:55] {cosmo} bananas for every meal....
[08:55] {Raven} 3 perhaps, but it'll all shake out after a couple of weeks
[08:56] {Threei} I wish I was that optimistic
[08:56] {Raven} 3 best to put in your earplugs and don't read the noise in the papers
[08:56] {Raven} 3 blahblahblah
[08:56] {Threei} lol, it's not papers
[08:57] {cosmo} wires
[08:57] {Threei} mass media if anything downplays the scalee of crisis
[08:57] {Threei} there is just one silver lining that I see
[08:57] {Threei} the amount of money invested in US is not easy to place somewhere else
[08:58] {Raven} 3 exactly
[08:58] {cosmo} don't touch that silver lining; you'll get a shock
[08:58] {Raven} 3 and the US consumer is a powerful force
[08:58] {Threei} thanks to credit
[08:58] {Raven} 3 not altogether
[08:58] {Threei} and confidence
[08:59] {Threei} both are under attack
[08:59] {Raven} 3 most people have absolutely no clue that there is any problem except the price of gas
[08:59] {Threei} that's our only hope
[08:59] {Raven} 3 (and some food)
[08:59] {Threei} crisis of perception would be a final nail
[09:01] {Threei} I don't have your perspective naturally... to me it feels like the worst crisis US faced
[09:01] {Threei} perfect storm
[09:03] {cosmo} ... not too wet; not too windy...
[09:03] {cosmo} i'm optomistic
[09:04] {Threei} send me some please
[09:04] {magoo} this may be the complete washout mkt players have been wanting looking for to signal bottom
[09:05] {cosmo} babies and bath water everywhere is the sign
[09:05] {dptl} good morning all
[09:05] {Threei} dp :)
[09:05] {magoo} was there new news vad on fre/fnm??
[09:05] {Threei} mags, having weekend ahead of us is a restraining factor
[09:06] {Threei} now many want to hold long into such weekend
[09:06] {magoo} new news this morn??
[09:06] {Threei} no real news, just volume increase on bailaout discussion
[09:06] {Threei} which leaves common stock at zero most likely
[09:06] {Raven} 3 big piece in WSJ about govt bailout of FNM, FRE
[09:06] {magoo} why would MA be up then??
[09:07] {Raven} 3 because your wife went on a spree magoo
[09:07] {Threei} 07/10/08 05:18pm [MA] Replacing ACE in the S&P500 and replace GM in S&P100; GM to remain in S&P500, effective after the close July 17
[09:08] {fernp} Good Morning??
[09:08] {Threei} hi fern... we will see :)
[09:08] {Threei} so far it looks like morning... "ggod" part is under question
[09:09] {Threei} I am probably last person you would expect to buy in doomsday scenarios... but this looks like absolute nightmare to me
[09:13] {fernp} U.S. weighs takeover of two mortgage giants - NY Times : The NY Times reports senior Bush administration officials are considering a plan to have the govt take over one or both of Fannie Mae (FNM) and Freddie Mac (FRE) and place them in a conservatorship if their problems worsen
[09:14] {GeoArb} long swiss francs then :)
[09:14] {fernp} your second scenario Vad
[09:15] {judijim} good morning all
[09:15] {GeoArb} yeah its going to be the second at the cost of the dollar :(
[09:17] {Threei} yes fern
[09:17] {Threei} hi jj
[09:19] {Threei} let's just hope Fed is not fully out of ammo and inventive enough to come up with third way
[09:19] {Threei} FRE under 4
[09:20] {Threei} let's be very careful, sensitivity to news is extraordinary
[09:21] {Threei} any soundbite can send a stock far from your entry price if you are unlucky enough to enter before news, on any side long or short
[09:21] {Threei} fade of extreme moves for scalp is probably the name of the game today
[09:24] {magoo} vad, i thought market wanted fed to intervene on those two?
[09:25] {Threei} intervene, yes, but to bail them out?
[09:25] {magoo} im confused lol
[09:25] {Threei} intervene by making them liquid and stay in the game is one thing
[09:25] {Threei} nationalize them is another
[09:29] {Threei} oil, mama mia
[09:31] {fernp} Crude oil jumps to another new record high; now +5.55 at 147.20
[09:31] {Threei} short FRE half lot .49
[09:31] {Threei} .65 stop
[09:31] {Threei} a bit late...
[09:31] {Threei} see if we get a bounce
[09:32] {magoo} was wondering if u filled
[09:32] {Threei} no
[09:32] {Threei} now I am
[09:32] {Threei} .47
[09:33] {Threei} out .21

[09:34] {Threei} FNM holding rather well
[09:36] {Threei} wow, nice bounce
[09:36] {Threei} I chickened out
[09:38] {Threei} 4.51 long FRE if stays above .30
[09:38] {Threei} half lot, needless to say
[09:40] {Threei} stopped
[09:42] {Threei} rinse
06[09:42] * Threei slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[09:43] {laserdave1} the good morning slap
[09:43] {laserdave1} thought i would catch you off guard
[09:43] {Threei} you can always count on it
[09:43] {laserdave1} hmmm
[09:43] {laserdave1} guess not
[09:44] {Threei} anyone ventured for second chance?

[10:16] {Threei} looks news-provoked
[10:16] {Threei} don't see any
[10:17] {Threei} OK, break your silence... anyone took any of these shorts?
[10:18] {Threei} I think I can go on weekend, no one talks to me anyway
[10:19] {patience} sorry vad, i didn't take the shorts. I'm just smiling because my gold plays are very happy :)
[10:19] {tomg} i was in fre long, got out when you called leh short. does that count? :)
[10:20] {Threei} why not... as long as someone noticing I am here at all {G}
[10:20] {tomg} glued to screen today, vad :))
[10:20] {Threei} can't blame you... rare action
[10:21] {Threei} FNM short with stop above .50 idea but want a bounce
[10:21] {Threei} somewhere above .20 desirably
[10:21] {tomg} made my daily on your first call, so now can relax a bit. interesting to watch battle
[10:21] {Threei} :)
[10:22] {Threei} FNM got away, no chance for entry
[10:22] {Threei} FRE however
[10:22] {Threei} .65 resistance
[10:22] {Threei} .50 break maybe worth a try
[10:23] {Threei} watch FNM for guidance
[10:25] {Threei} wow
[10:25] {Threei} out
[10:25] {Threei} US TREASURY'S PAULSON: FOCUS IS ON BACKING FRE AND FNM IN CURRENT FORM, REGULATORS IN TALKS WITH GSES
[10:25] {Threei} that's long IMO
[10:25] {Threei} in current form is key words
[10:26] {Threei} want FNM bounce
[10:26] {Threei} as close to .50 as possible
[10:27] {Threei} tried to bid .60, no chance
[10:27] {Threei} not this time
[10:27] {Threei} will lose .50
[10:28] {Threei} things change too fast to comment real time, lol
[10:29] {Threei} EQUITIES AND THE DOLLAR MOVE LOWER AFTER TREASUY SEC PAULSON'S STATEMENT PROVIDES LITTLE IF ANY DETAILS OF A SPECIFIC BAILOUT PLAN
[10:30] {Threei} MOODY'S SAYS US GOV'T DEBT WELL WITHIN AAA RANGE
[10:31] {Threei} this last round of selling is unjustified IMO
[10:32] {Threei} FRE looking for bounce
[10:33] {Threei} out if you got it
[10:33] {Threei} guys, quick traders have to grab entries as instincts guide them
[10:33] {Threei} there is no way I can alert in time
[10:34] {Threei} very liquid situation
[10:34] {Chaeron} GM all... chaos rules today I see
[10:34] {Threei} if you don't feel confident,enough for entries, paper trade
[10:34] {Threei} hi chaeron
[10:35] {Threei} I barely manage to give an idea of a trade
[10:35] {Threei} exact entry, no way
[10:36] {Threei} FNM dollar bounce
[10:38] {Threei} FNM around .50 should be another long entry
[10:39] {Threei} UPDATE: CITIGROUP COMMENTS THAT FANNIE AND FREDDIE SELL OFF IS NOT DUE TO FUNDAMENTALS; REITERATES BUY RATING
[10:41] {Threei} feel free to exit
[10:41] {Threei} +.23 for me

06[10:42] * Threei slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[10:42] {Threei} and while I am at it
06[10:42] * Threei slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
06[10:43] * Chaeron slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
06[10:43] * Chaeron slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[10:43] {Threei} thank you chaeron
[10:44] {Threei} disconnect between FRE/FNM and LEH
06[10:44] * Chaeron slaps Threei around a bit with a large trout
[10:45] {Threei} oh great
[10:45] {Threei} I thought I had an ally... turns out he just slaps people by pure reflex {G}
[10:46] {Threei} told ya that last round of selling was unwarranted
[10:46] {tomg} out fnm 8.01 , ty vad
[10:47] {Threei} from?
[10:47] {Threei} .55 or so?
[10:47] {tomg} .62
[10:47] {Threei} :)
[10:47] {Threei} not bad for 12-15 cents original stop size
[10:48] {tomg} yep :)
[10:48] {Threei} I am getting strange feeling that we are going to see much bigger recovbery on this pair today
[10:49] {Threei} findin g entry is still not easy... pullbacks into obvious support levels is the best approach
[10:49] {Threei} much like this last pullback on FNM from 8 to 7.50
[10:49] {Threei} so lwet's try and identify them
[10:49] {Threei} 8 is closest support for FNM
[10:49] {Threei} 4.70 for FRE
[10:50] {Threei} right now more negative action on LEH than on this couple
[10:51] {Threei} how about that FNM
[10:54] {tomg} xlf resistance 18.65?
[11:00] {tomg} now support
[11:01] {Threei} [10:48] {Threei} I am getting strange feeling that we are going to see much bigger recovbery on this pair today
[11:01] {tomg} xlf long here, vad?
[11:02] {Threei} after pullback...
[11:02] {Threei} it has much narrower range
[11:02] {tomg} ok, ty
[11:03] {Threei} plus, XLF has other financials weighing on it
[11:05] {Threei} FNM at support
[11:05] {Threei} FRE is not yet
[11:07] {Threei} FNM bounced right on que
[11:07] {Threei} FNM still pulling back
[11:07] {Threei} FRE sorry
[11:08] {Threei} FRE needs to be closer to 5.10
[11:12] {Threei} in, stop under 4.90
[11:12] {Threei} got 5.03
[11:12] {Threei} right on que
[11:13] {Threei} out
[11:13] {Threei} +.24

[11:34] {Threei} second bounce off ,.30 worked
[11:34] {patience} interesting times vad

[12:18] {Threei} covered half .76
[12:18] {Threei} +.28
[12:18] {Threei} why didn't I short FRE btw
[12:18] {kazaam} yep yep, wish i was more aggressive like you, i didnt have my hunting cap on
[12:18] {Threei} [12:09] {Threei} FRE closest resistance .35
[12:18] {Threei} hit .30 on bounce
[12:19] {Threei} focused on FNM too much
[12:19] {Threei} bidding .55
[12:19] {Threei} FNM
[12:20] {Threei} to cover, not for long entry!
[12:20] {Threei} stop 10.01
[12:22] {Threei} stop to .81
[12:24] {Threei} direct hit
[12:24] {Threei} out +.49
[12:24] {Threei} [11:50] {Threei} this pullback is probably last long ewntry for bounce
[12:24] {Threei} [11:50] {Threei} after that either switching to shorts or going on a sideline
[12:25] {Threei} [12:09] {Threei} looks like time to switch to short side on this unholy couple
[12:25] {Threei} did I get the best read of the month on them or what today
[12:26] {magoo} yup
[12:27] {magoo} but fate had other plans for magoo
[12:27] {Threei} argh

[12:42] {magoo} aapl bounce vad??
[12:46] {Threei} can't get feel on it
[12:47] {kazaam} CEDC? I cant understand if that price action is bullish or bearish
[12:48] {Threei} mostly bullish, it's just very thin
[12:49] {Threei} FNM looks like short entry again
[12:50] {Threei} .50 closest resistance
[13:01] {Threei} anyone's in and needs guidance?
[13:08] {magoo} i am
[13:09] {Threei} price?
[13:09] {magoo} morale

[13:09] {Threei} -buy fast dropping stocks
[13:09] {Threei} -shot fast rising stocks
[13:09] {Threei} -blow one's stops
[13:10] {Threei} -double down on losing position
[13:11] {Threei} -covet neighbour's trading account
[13:12] {Threei} -worship false TV gurus

06[13:15] * patience slaps Threei around a bit with a large trout
