[09:27] {Threei} if can hold today siglas a lot of strength for further rally

[09:31] {Threei} FRE .21 long, stop under 10

[09:33] {Threei} FNM is considerably stronegr
[09:36] {Threei} FNM .56 half lot long if not losing .40 anymore
[09:38] {Threei} over 1:1
[09:39] {Threei} touched under .40 briefly, hard to tell whether it was invalidation or just a fluke... kinf of discretionary

[09:39] {Threei} if you took it, get out here
[09:39] {kazaam} leh broke 20.20
[09:39] {Threei} dino :)
[09:39] {dino} i know, don't swing
[09:39] {Threei} LEH went too deep on pullback for my taste...
[09:40] {Threei} but with FNM continuing , probably worth a try
[09:40] {Threei} sheesh FNM
[09:41] {Threei} BAC
[09:41] {Threei} CEO: DOES NOT SEE US ECONOMY SLIDING INTO A NEGATIVE GROWTH SCENARIO FOR A LONG DURATION OF TIME, CFC ACQUISITION ON TRACK, ADDING TO PROFITS - CONF CALL

[09:45] {hawkfan4} out
[09:45] {dino} chic
[09:46] {Threei} this endless string of green bars is scary looking
[09:46] {Threei} when it ends, it derops so violently, beter be out before that
[09:46] {Threei} "sell when you can, not when you have to"
[09:46] {Threei} look at that
[09:47] {Threei} over 50 cents drop in one gasp
[09:47] {Threei} aren't you glad to give up last 5 cents and guard yourself against this
[09:47] {hawkfan4} you bet
[09:48] {Threei} reentry time is coming
[09:48] {Threei} ugh, late
[09:48] {Threei} don't chase
[09:49] {kazaam} possible BAC wedge
[09:50] {Threei} somewhat listless chart... can't tell on BAC, sorry

[10:21] {kazaam} everybody went to sleep kinda early this morning
[10:21] {Threei} you assume someone actually ever woke up
[10:21] {Threei} that's not a given
[10:21] {kazaam} ahhh, mistake number one
[10:22] {dino} sm l aste .92, stop .59

[10:38] {Threei} getting interested in FNM again
[10:39] {Threei} worth a try as close to .50 as possible, can take a few attempts
[10:41] {Threei} ALTH
[10:41] {Threei} .50 break long
[10:41] {Threei} aww

[10:44] {hawkfan4} missed it
[10:44] {fernp} no. too fast
[10:48] {kazaam} vad, any read on SII?
[10:48] {Threei} 85 is obvious support
[10:48] {Threei} worth a try off it
[10:48] {Threei} just a bit too volatile to rely on exact numbers,
[10:48] {Threei} gotta o with fuzzy "areas"
[10:49] {Threei} WB
[10:49] {Threei} .51 long if stays above .35

[10:54] {Threei} anyone took ALTH on pullback to .50?
[10:56] {dino} mancehester securities and alerian capital assume control of sglp
[10:56] {Threei} I wish I understood what that means :)
[11:03] {Threei} ALTH is pregnant with runner status
[11:04] {Threei} not for chasing here though
[11:05] {Threei} how did I miss CLNE 13 break
[11:06] {kazaam} BRL breakout?
[11:06] {kazaam} oh, i guess i missed it
[11:06] {Threei} Geo is in it from earlier
[11:07] {Threei} I think from way earlier
[11:07] {Threei} 64 or so?
[11:08] {Threei} LEH half lot long 20.03
[11:08] {Threei} stop under .90
[11:09] {Threei} .80 is better pronounced support but I would like to keep it to scalping mostly at this point
[11:10] {GeoArb} sitting in it from .30.... in and out of office
[11:11] {Threei} grrrr MYGN
[11:11] {Threei} rinsed
[11:14] {Threei} OSTK small shares short .55

[11:22] {fernp} excelent Vad. TY
[11:23] {Threei} :)
[11:23] {Threei} power of momentum is amazing... it's down so much over last days and still drops
[11:24] {Threei} FNM... time to try it again, may take multiple attempts
[11:24] {Threei} .75 with stop under .60 first try
[11:26] {Threei} if stopped next support is .50
[11:26] {Threei} sheesh OSTK
[11:26] {Threei} anyone had mor patience than I did?
[11:27] {kazaam} wish i got in, took a bathroom break and missed LVS as well

[11:27] {Threei} lol
[11:28] {kazaam} hehe
[11:28] {GeoArb} long enuff break to miss not one but 2 plays !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[11:28] {GeoArb} :)
[11:30] {Threei} ah come on FNM, isn't $3 pullback from high deserving an entry?
[11:30] {Threei} apparently not
[11:34] {pita} later everyone
[11:35] {Threei} take care pita
[11:35] {dino} aste stop to .32
[11:35] {dino} etm bstop to b/e
[11:39] {Threei} LEH bounce time very soon
[11:40] {Threei} hard to pin;point exact entry
[11:40] {Threei} if you get a feel for it, great
[11:40] {Threei} if not, stay away
[11:40] {dino} out aste .63 +.71
[11:40] {Threei} wtg
[11:40] {dino} ty
[11:41] {dino} took awhile, but hey
[11:41] {dino} etm to .72
[11:46] {dino} etm stopped/cov .73 +.19
[11:57] {Threei} if FNM goes as low as 15 I will buy without second thought
[11:57] {Threei} (I think)
06[11:58] * Threei slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
06[11:58] * Chaeron slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:00] {dino} ma gap fill
[12:01] {Threei} one more leg down probably, for both market and FNM, and bounce should develop
[12:04] {Threei} in FNM{ try #1
[12:04] {Threei} stop 0.09
[12:07] {dino} v sm l ma .25 risky, v wide
[12:09] {Threei} ok market, enough games... time to move
[12:11] {Threei} FNM needs to sell under 15
[12:11] {Threei} will be impossible to call in time
[12:12] {Threei} same thing as before - if you get a read on it, go for it
[12:12] {Threei} if not, stay on a sideline
[12:27] {kazaam} what a mess
[12:27] {Threei} Monday... hangover...
[12:28] {Threei} http://realitytrader.com/vad/Mondays-Suck-Video.wmv

[12:33] {hawkfan4} .93
[12:33] {Threei} beauty... wtg

[12:36] {dino} gj
[12:37] {hawkfan4} thx dino
[12:39] {dino} :)
[12:45] {dptl} mdco?
[12:45] {Threei} why not
[12:45] {Threei} chart's right, market is moving
[12:46] {dptl} l .21
[12:46] {dptl} stop under .06?
[12:47] {Threei} or under 21
[12:47] {Threei} both make sense
[12:47] {dptl} ok ty
[13:02] {dptl} sun?
[13:03] {Threei} ywes, not a cloud here
[13:04] {dptl} .40 break with stop under .20
[13:04] {Threei} .40 if holding above .25, IMO
[13:04] {dptl} ok ty
[13:04] {Threei} lunch time... things are less eactive
[13:06] {Chaeron} Ben Franklin summed it up well. In times of stress, the three best things to have are an old dog, an old wife and ready money. How right he was.
[13:07] {Chaeron} ooops sorry
[13:07] {Threei} why then do all those people with ready money leave old dog to old wife and go for new wife
[13:08] {Chaeron} lol
[13:08] {GeoArb} lol
[13:08] {Chaeron} fools
[13:08] {dptl} mir?
[13:08] {GeoArb} thats in times of less stress
[13:08] {Threei} MIR intraday looks nice, but there is .81 resistance from yesterday, very close
[13:09] {dptl} yes.
[13:11] {dptl} grabbed 10c mir
[13:11] {Threei} went through both
[13:11] {Threei} nice one
[13:11] {dptl} offering .37 mdco
[13:12] {Threei} dptl, the lunch time money machine
[13:12] {dptl} :) trying
[13:14] {dptl} should i keep same stop on mdco?
[13:14] {Threei} it formed new support at .15
[13:14] {Threei} so, either .14 if you are strict
[13:14] {Threei} or .09 to pad it a bit
[13:14] {dptl} thats what i think
[13:16] {dptl} sun held.25
[13:18] {dptl} got .42 sun
[13:26] {dptl} out mdco +.16
[13:26] {Threei} :)
[13:27] {dptl} :) now if you can kick that sun:)
[13:29] {Threei} good enough?
[13:29] {dptl} lol a bit more may be or that will be pushing
[13:30] {Threei} it will... but I'll try... just for you
[13:31] {dptl} thanx Vad
[13:31] {dptl} offering .57
[13:37] {dptl} hmm..amazing ...nice kick Vad out .57 thx lol

[13:38] {Threei} just ask
[13:38] {dptl} :)
[13:50] {dptl} nrg?
[13:53] {Threei} .26 is obvious trigger but I don't see defined support for stop placement for now
[13:54] {dptl} sun again
[13:55] {dptl} yes same here can't find stop for nrg
[13:55] {Threei} see if COST forms double bottom
[13:55] {Threei} .91 would be long if holding above .70
[14:00] {dino} i was watching cost too
[14:01] {Threei} cool, let's name the thing for move to 70.50
[14:01] {dino} ok
[14:01] {Threei} name = nail
[14:04] {Threei} lost support in validating double bottom
[14:04] {Threei} invalifating
[14:04] {Threei} ok, whatever

[14:32] {Threei} OPEC PRESIDENT NOTES THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE EXTRA CAPACITY TO MEET AN INCREASE IN DEMAND
