[08:06] {magoo} jhhdfdhffyjyfv
[08:06] {Threei} lkgoidnht?
[08:06] {Threei} anyway... good morning
[08:07] {lisa_jay} Hi Vad. I am finally here.
[08:07] {Threei} hi lisa, welcome back :)
[08:07] {lisa_jay} Thank you.
[08:07] {lisa_jay} $%^%$# Magoo. Hope you remember me.
[08:08] {magoo} morn lisa...why u swearing at me already? he he
[08:09] {lisa_jay} I:-)
[08:09] {Threei} oh mags, just look in the mirror...
[08:09] {lisa_jay} Vad, is it too early for questions?
[08:09] {Threei} and tell me it didn't made you swear {G}
[08:10] {Threei} shoot lisa
[08:11] {lisa_jay} Should I place hard stops in the system or manually close position if stop price hit?
[08:11] {Threei} it's a matter of 2 things
[08:11] {Threei} 1. personal discipline
[08:11] {Threei} 2. ability ot be at your computer
[08:12] {Threei} if you are good at executing stops without second-guessing them, and can be at your station majority of the time, I would prefer manual stops
[08:12] {Threei} if you have to leave for a few hours, place hard stop
[08:13] {Threei} if you know thyself and suspect you may ignore the stop in hope stock recovers... place hard stop and don't give yourself a chance to ruin your account
[08:14] {lisa_jay} Ok, thank you.
[08:15] {Threei} one more advice about stops
[08:15] {Threei} every time you have to take a stop, slap magoo with trout - it helps cope with loss
[08:15] {lisa_jay} Sounds fishy.
[08:15] {Threei} it is
[08:15] {Threei} but it works
[08:16] {Threei} both emotional relief and satisfaction of delivering joy to thy neighbor
[08:16] {Threei} help immensely
[08:24] {magoo} :)
[08:34] {magoo} AKS vad news?
[08:36] {Threei} 08:31am [AKS] Reports Q3 $1.67 v $1.45e, R $2.16B v $2.16B

[10:23] {Geo} there is nothing in it for me of course
[10:24] {Threei} so... anyone is capable of holding last portion THAT long on ADBE? :)
[10:24] {Threei} or your scalping instincts take over?
[10:25] {Threei} probably market needs some rest
[10:25] {lisa_jay} Scalped for break even on ADBE...could not deal with volatility (initially). As a penance (sp), holding firm on GERN.
[10:26] {Geo} yeah me breakeven on adbe too
[10:26] {Threei} wow
[10:26] {Geo} fatfingered 2 lots by mistake
[10:27] {Geo} didnt help me
[10:27] {Geo} so got out at even
[10:27] {Threei} I don't know how you guys manage to stay breakeven on a stock that moves 60 cents with 20 cents stop... never touching stop level
[10:27] {Threei} come on, a bit of discipline
[10:27] {Threei} let's trail GERN to under .65
[10:27] {lisa_jay} Yes. I will not doubt you again :-)
[10:27] {Geo} welli should have exited one lot at breakeven and traded like nothing happenned
[10:28] {Threei} it's not even me to doubt or not... it's simply rules of trading
[10:28] {Threei} stop is not tagged - stay in
[10:28] {Threei} don't trade on noize
[10:28] {Geo} sniff
[10:29] {lisa_jay} Yes. Learnt the hard way (paid 40c) for it.
[10:29] {Geo} ndaq running
[10:29] {Threei} literally 40c?
[10:30] {Geo} nq stop vad?
[10:30] {Threei} under .35
[10:30] {Threei} but come on
[10:30] {Threei} my target was 50 -55
[10:30] {Threei} it hit 54
[10:31] {Geo} got distracted by gap fill
[10:31] {Geo} no excuse
[10:31] {lisa_jay} Seriosly, this is one aspect of trading that i am trying to master, and avoiding taking profits too soon (before 1:1)
[10:33] {lisa_jay} There goes gern.
[10:33] {dino} micc stopped
[10:34] {Threei} {GERN} well Geo... are you still unhappy with me?
[10:34] {Geo} :)
[10:34] {dino} wmt stopped -.35
[10:34] {dino} stop city
[10:34] {dino} starting over
[10:35] {lisa_jay} Vad 1:1 on Gern is .90 or .85? Thank you.
[10:36] {Threei} formally .90...
[10:36] {Threei} noty sure what the best way to play it would be
[10:36] {Threei} let's re-evaluate as it gets there
[10:37] {Threei} it climbs nicely andf against the market, but overall this stock has a history of disapointing
[10:37] {lisa_jay} ok, thanks
[10:40] {Geo} nflx got beatup up
[10:42] {Geo} powerup?
[10:42] {Threei} let's trail GERN under .70
06[10:43] * Geo promises not to fail on NQ this time

[10:47] {Geo} good lesson
[10:48] {Geo} TY vad
[10:48] {Threei} still stopped on a trail, in plus, right?
[10:48] {Geo} still got 8 points one one and 4 on other
[10:48] {Geo} on one
[10:49] {Geo} so 240 bucks
[10:49] {Geo} not banking second lot on 54 was a big mistake
[10:50] {Threei} maybe not exactly 54, it's hard to nail exact top,
[10:50] {Geo} i had it on 50
[10:50] {Threei} but when it lost 50, .49 should have been taken
[10:50] {Geo} moved to 55 heheh
[10:50] {Geo} thought gap would fill
[10:50] {Geo} good to know
[10:50] {Geo} nice way to exit
[10:50] {Threei} so, 49 - 34 = 15x20 = $300, right?
[10:51] {Geo} yeah :(
[10:51] {Threei} write it down as a price of mistake
[10:51] {Threei} and look at it every time you experience doubt
[10:51] {Geo} thats a great way to exit vad
[10:51] {Geo} loses round nuber
[10:51] {Geo} exit
[10:51] {Geo} never thought of that

[12:35] {Geo} looks like a 300 for me
[12:36] {dino} sgp l .50
[12:38] {Threei} QID 1:2
[12:38] {Threei} wow
[12:38] {Threei} out .42
[12:38] {Geo} NQ one lot out
[12:38] {Geo} 1:1
[12:40] {Geo} stop still o4 vad?
[12:41] {Threei} want to tail it and don't want to overtighten...
[12:41] {Threei} how about 06?
[12:41] {Geo} NQ moves diff
[12:41] {Threei} yeah
[12:41] {Geo} back and fills
[12:41] {Threei} that's why I am in doubt
[12:42] {Threei} can't trail NQ like usual stock
[12:42] {Threei} will be shaken out 9 out of 10
[12:42] {Geo} definately tougher
[12:42] {Geo} gys who took QID smirking
[12:43] {Threei} that's what we natural born smirkers do
[12:43] {Geo} :)
[12:44] {Threei} do this Geo
[12:44] {Threei} watch the NQ move,
[12:44] {Threei} wantchg according QID move,
[12:45] {Geo} lol
[12:45] {Threei} compare them to see the correlation,
[12:45] {Geo} just set that up
[12:45] {Threei} then calculate how many shares will match how many contracts
[12:45] {Threei} compare volatility in terms of violating the setup to account for slippage
[12:45] {Threei} and you'll get your way to play QID
[12:47] {Geo} out NQ
[12:47] {Chaeron} finally UAUA
[12:47] {Chaeron} 1:1
[12:48] {Geo} 1000 shares QID apprx 3 contracts of NQ
[12:49] {Geo} so i guess my 300 QID was good as its one NQ
[12:49] {Geo} looking at vol now
[12:50] {Threei} hmm
[12:50] {Threei} doesn't look right to me
[12:50] {Geo} ?
[12:50] {Threei} my feeling is, 1000 shares QID is closer to 5 contracts
[12:53] {Geo} 1k QID = 70k 3 NQ = 78k
[12:53] {Geo} apprx
[12:55] {Threei} ?
[12:55] {Geo} leverage
[12:55] {Threei} this is wrong way to compare
[12:55] {Geo} ok
[12:55] {Threei} weigh the size of the movement against each other,
[12:55] {Geo} ok
[12:55] {Threei} see how much $ you make on 1 contract NQ
[12:56] {Geo} ok
[12:56] {Threei} calculate how many shares you need on QID to make the same amount of money on the move that corresponds with NQ
06[12:56] * Geo back to drawing board
[12:56] {Threei} meaning,
[12:56] {Threei} (just an ewxample)
[12:56] {Threei} 5 points NQ equal 50 cents QID
[12:56] {Geo} sniff
[12:56] {Threei} not saying it is, that's for to observe
[12:57] {Threei} 1 contract on 5 points gives you $100
[12:57] {Threei} then you need 200 shares QID to gain the same on corresponding move
[12:58] {Threei} capishe?
[12:58] {Geo} sigh
[12:58] {Geo} you right vad
[12:58] {lisa_jay} Thank you Vad, got 20c on UAUA.
[12:58] {Threei} good job lisa

[12:58] {Threei} I know it tempted you to quit zillion times
[12:59] {Geo} man NFLX pounded for outlook
[12:59] {lisa_jay} :-)
[12:59] {lisa_jay} I learnt the hard way that good things come to those who wait.
[12:59] {Geo} you make a good case for trading QID rather than NQ vad lol
[13:00] {Geo} the stops on QID definately easier
[13:01] {Threei} I don't know lisa... I tried that yesterday, sat and stared at the ceiling telling my wife that I was waiting for Angelina Jolie to come... nothing good came out of it
[13:01] {Geo} didnt wait lon enuff
[13:02] {Threei} I want to see how long you can wait under frying pan hitting you on the head
[13:02] {Geo} lol
[13:03] {Geo} at 1X now
[13:03] {Geo} would be 2.5X if i had played NQ better
[13:03] {lisa_jay} Lol.
