[09:08] {peterg} for me today will be very interesting and frustrating; I now hve the famous laser platform, so I am back in first grade yet again.
[09:09] {Threei} just allow yourself time to learn it
[09:09] {peterg} and dont smash computer
[09:09] {Threei} it's a powerful weapon, learning curve is not really steep but will take a few
[09:10] {peterg} minutes? months
[09:10] {peterg} years
[09:10] {Threei} days :)
[09:10] {peterg} good
[09:11] {Threei} you have my layout as a starting point
[09:11] {Threei} adjust things for your configuration
[09:12] {peterg} layout from video
[09:12] {Threei} and re-orient your priorities for couple days,
[09:12] {Threei} don't try to make money right away, aim for learning the software
[09:13] {Threei} when you become comfortable with tools, you can focus on utilizing them
[09:14] {Threei} slappng dave with herring helps too
[09:14] {peterg} looking forward to it
[09:15] {Threei} you'll enjoy it... everyone who tried it once just can't let the fish go
[09:15] {Threei} lars, welcome aboard
[09:17] {hawkfan4} good morning

[09:24] {Threei} IRAN PRESIDENT: IRAN IS NOT WORKING ON A NUCLEAR WEAPON - NBC NEWS INTERVIEW PREVIEWS
[09:24] {Threei} {USO}
[09:25] {Threei} overall, usual suspects on radar... FNM, UAUA, FRE, plus NTWK
[09:26] {Threei} if oil getting hit UAUA is a player again
[09:28] {magoo} HEY:)
[09:29] {Threei} mags!
[09:29] {Threei} greeting trout in order?
[09:29] {esemde} AMGN up 7 pts

[09:31] {magoo} i knew something missing all week
[09:31] {Threei} :)
[09:33] {Threei} .15 long UAUA
[09:33] {Threei} stop under 7
[09:33] {Threei} too fast?
[09:33] {Threei} no chasing
[09:34] {Threei} it gives sudden "teleportations" up and down
[09:34] {Threei} one of such to the downside gives an entry chance for fast traders
[09:34] {Threei} but have to time it with USO moves
[09:35] {Threei} over 1:1 if anyone got it (doubtfully)
[09:35] {magoo} i did :)
[09:35] {Threei} wow... some got nice rest
[09:35] {Threei} grab profit or at least partial
[09:36] {magoo} ok out .38
[09:36] {magoo} TY
[09:36] {Threei} welcome, nice start after vacation
[09:36] {Threei} if USO moves down sharply, watch for UAUA headfake downtick
[09:37] {esemde} LSchw
[09:37] {Threei} it does it often shaking traders out before jumping up
[09:37] {esemde} 22.18
[09:37] {esemde} 1/2 lot
[09:38] {Threei} VVUS
[09:38] {Threei} break over .70 long
[09:38] {Threei} if stays above .55
[09:39] {Threei} FNM, watch for pullback into 12 - 12.20 area for entry
[09:42] {Threei} here comes sizeable pullback UAUA
[09:42] {Threei} USO drop will give an entry now
[09:43] {Threei} 99.50 break should launch next leg down
[09:46] {Threei} die USO
[09:47] {kazaam} did fnm already waste its bounce?
[09:47] {kazaam} or you think its got another?
[09:48] {Threei} didn't pull back deep enough for me
[09:48] {Threei} it haas ranges wider than this
[09:48] {Threei} here goes USO
[09:49] {Threei} if you got UAUA, stop under .20
[09:49] {magoo} vad, FNM?
06[09:49] * Threei hits USO over the head with 2x4
[09:50] {Threei} feels like should dive deeper FNM
[09:50] {Threei} under 12
[09:50] {Threei} watch for quick selling
[09:50] {kazaam} awww, the 2x4 is sometimes for subtle than the boots
[09:51] {Threei} 2x4 works
[09:52] {kazaam} amgn break high or low a decent play?
[09:52] {Threei} can't get a grip on it kaz... not sure
[09:53] {Threei} feel free to scalp or partial here on UAUA
[09:54] {Threei} with entry about .35, nicely above 1:1
[09:56] {Threei} FNM should lose 12 now
[09:58] {peterg} ok i like laser & colors are prettier
[09:59] {Threei} yup, I am a sucker for flashing lights too
[10:00] {Threei} and you have dave to slap as a bonus
[10:00] {Threei} icing on a cake so to speak
[10:00] {peterg} where is he
[10:00] {Threei} slacking
[10:00] {Threei} which gets him double trout when he wakes up
[10:00] {Threei} but if you need urgent help, phone him
[10:01] {peterg} nope, i just figured out how to buy...now if I can figure out how to sell....
[10:01] {Threei} lol
[10:03] {Threei} missed FNM dive under 12

[10:16] {Threei} - The bottom for the US housing market is not visible, declining home values may make homes more affordable and help stabilize the market.
[10:16] {Threei} - Sees "systemic consequences" if confidence is lost in the GSEs. The GSE model requres further examination and oversight.{FRE FNM}
[10:17] {Threei} in
[10:17] {magoo} in .79
[10:17] {Threei} stop .69
[10:17] {Threei} may take a few tries
[10:19] {kazaam} target is around 12?
[10:19] {Threei} at least
[10:19] {Threei} most likely higher
[10:19] {magoo} seems like 12.25 area
[10:21] {Threei} stopped
[10:21] {magoo} yup
[10:37] {magoo} hello?
[10:37] {magoo} 15 minutes of silence

[10:42] {Threei} .71 long FNM if stays above .60

[10:47] {Threei} probably dead in the water
[10:48] {Threei} BRCM
[10:48] {Threei} 24 break long
[10:48] {Threei} stop under .80
[10:50] {Roman} 21 CHK
[10:50] {Threei} FNM is valid
[10:50] {Roman} 21 HK looks decent
[10:51] {Roman} 21 and CHK for long continueation
[10:55] {pita} stop FNM?
[10:55] {Threei} .55
[10:58] {Threei} feels like tide has changed to upward on FNM again
[10:58] {Threei} needs a l,ittle help by market
[11:00] {Threei} .85 break should send it back to 12

[11:25] {esemde} let that be a lesson to you all....
[11:25] {esemde} distractions turn into losses
[11:26] {Threei} USO is too strong for market to hold up it seems
[11:26] {esemde} in this case small loss...
[11:26] {esemde} man....cannot believe the phone calls i'm getting
[11:26] {Roman} 21 watching CSIQ
[11:27] {Roman} 21 probably wants over $30

[12:21] {magoo} hello
[12:21] {magoo} its been 18 mins
[12:22] {Threei} someone got too precise watch
[12:38] {Threei} both USO and market got locked in a narrow range
[12:39] {Threei} USO break of 99.50 should re-energize the market
[12:40] {magoo} vad, was there recent negative news with aapl?
[12:41] {Threei} nothing ground shaking
[12:44] {Threei} USO chose to spike instead
[12:44] {Threei} btw magoo
[12:44] {magoo} uh oh
[12:44] {Threei} last two days on last week were first days that looked like typical summer
[12:45] {Threei} just so you know, we finally maybe entered it
[12:45] {Threei} maybe not... we will see
[12:45] {magoo} ok..thought a slap was comig
[12:45] {Threei} oh, that is not very far
06[12:45] * Threei slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[12:46] {Threei} just wanted to alert about slight pattern change you and lars, since you weren't here last week
[12:46] {Threei} whole thing before that didn't look like normal summer trading at all, so it's a very recent change
[12:47] {lars} I have a lot to learn :)
[12:49] {Threei} we all do, just some of us are better at pretending they learnt everything there is
[12:56] {dptl} Vad dcc,pls
[13:10] {Threei} FED'S MISHKIN: INFLATION TARGET SHOULD BE HEADLINE, NOT CORE, AS CORE MAY BE A BIASED MEASURE OF LONG RUN INFLATION - Q&A
[13:10] {Threei} - Reacting too much to headline and not core inflation couldn lead to bad outcomes, core inflation does not contain important information for policy makers.
[13:10] {Threei} - Expects inflation to drop to around 2% in the next three years.
[13:10] {Threei} - The recent drop in oil is "very welcome."
[13:29] {magoo} uso breaks .50 vad
[13:30] {Threei} not sure about follow throuigh
[13:32] {Threei} the only way right now to play this kind of moves is if it drops sharply and UAUA gives a delay enough for entry
[13:35] {Threei} this UAUA pullback creates good base for entry - IF USO drops fast from here
[13:47] {Threei} WHITE HOUSE: ECONOMY CONTINUES TO EXPAND, REMAINS "FUNDAMENTALLY RESILIENT"
[14:15] {magoo} .

[14:51] {esemde} opps oex isn't Oil index thats the S&P 100
