[08:42] {ese} good morning
[08:42] {Threei} ese :)
[08:42] {ese} hey vad.......back after another thursday morning Hiatus....
[08:43] {ese} yup....could lose some money in CSIQ
[08:44] {ese} have a couple of positions there
[08:44] {magoo} vads news aapl rimm??
[08:44] {Threei} no
[08:45] {ese} although CSIQ has 6 bucks and some in cash per share....and it's trading at 3.50
[08:45] {magoo} ty
[08:46] {hawkfan4} EMKR .85 cents, geez
[08:49] {ese} was it another big down day share wise on the Dow yesterday......capitulation maybe??
[08:49] {ese} did it feel like that to you Vad
[08:49] {Threei} as already occured you mean? or coming?
[08:50] {Threei} yeasterday's selling wasn't it
[08:50] {ese} i think as already occured....yesterday
[08:50] {Threei} nasty sellof as it was, it didn't feel at all like that final climactic "get me out so I can forget whole thing"
[08:51] {ese} you feel like that is still to come
[08:51] {Threei} this I don't know
[08:51] {Threei} see, capitulation is a sure way to finish the phase and start anew,
[08:51] {Threei} but not every bear market ends in capitulation
[08:52] {ese} how so
[08:52] {Threei} sometimes it's along slow grind,
[08:52] {Threei} sometimes it's a certain turn of events that changes sentiment
[08:53] {magoo} vad..we are down so far levels that is..and people been getting out ...maybe no woosh
[08:53] {Threei} and sometimes capitulation is not as pronounced as to be spotted as it occurs
[08:53] {Threei} and becomes capitulation in hindsight only
[08:53] {Threei} right magoo
[08:53] {ese} hmmmmm i see what you mean volume yesterday 537 mil and Oct 10 672mill
[08:54] {ese} on the Dow
[08:54] {magoo} say again:) lol
[08:54] {Threei} imagine how much of invested capital was already liquidated during these selloffs
[08:54] {Threei} day after day
[08:54] {Threei} week after week
[08:54] {Threei} relentless selling
[08:54] {Threei} 200 points todsay, 300 tomorrow, 400 again, 200 again
[08:55] {Threei} Just how much is there left to liquidate?? :)
[08:55] {Threei} who knows?
[08:56] {Threei} let me post one short blurb on capitulation I;ve written a while ago
[08:56] {Threei} need to put it on blog
[08:56] {Threei} didn't get to it yet
[08:56] {Threei} so posting here:
[08:57] {wishbone} gm all
[08:57] {Threei} Re: Capitulation.
[08:57] {Threei}
[08:57] {Threei} There are two important things to keep in mind about this concept.
[08:57] {Threei}
[08:57] {Threei} First is, bottoms are not always being formed by capitulatory selloff (V-shape). Sometimes it's a slow grind shaping as a dish; sometimes even with caputilation it's still not that easy - initial bounce leads to a second drop into lows and double bottom, however nice the formation is, has second bottom LOWER than first one, so early buyers still get shaken out.
[08:57] {Threei} Second, and most important to remember. You probably noticed that whereever you find the description of the concept, it's still just a concpet - meaning, there is no measurable component to it. There is, to my best knowledge, no percentage of the drop that quialifies selloff as capitulation. Name any, and you will inevitably find a whole lot of cases where it was exceeded.
[08:57] {Threei} There is a good reason for that: if there was a certain measurement for capitulation that guaranteed ultimate low, everyone would be insanely rich waiting for it and buying it... and no one would be buying a second earlier. But then again, why would anyone sell at that ultimate low which has been already proven to be an ultimate one?...
[08:58] {Threei} Thus, capitulation is either:
[08:58] {Threei} - can not be computed as it's an emotional state, panic, total disarray leading to a freefall - but not being quantifiable, it's in the eye of a beholder, which meakes "getting a read" on it quite discretionary;
[08:58] {Threei} or
[08:58] {Threei} - can be computed to a certain degree IF you somehow know the amount of shares that were held by different stakeholders, and see roughly that amount being traded in a very short period of time (again, discretionary component) during very steep selloff (once again, steep by what standard? on what chart?).
[08:59] {Threei} No doubt, sometimes experienced traders get it right by gut feeling which is a product of vast experience. By no means it's a fool proof process for any of them, and you will always see arguments about whether this particular selling already constitutes capitulation or not yet, whether capitulation is going to be the case on this particular bear market or not. This concept is necessary to understand, but it doesn't mean that once you understand the concept you can spot the capitulatory type of bottom.
[08:59] {Threei} End
[08:59] {Threei} hi wishbone :)
[09:00] {KSystems} Good morning!

[14:57] {Threei} yesterday's log I started with this:
[14:57] {Threei} I don't know if I am allowed to call a "nice day" one where trading was profitable but the market suffered another horrific blow. Anyway... that's how it shaped up.
[14:57] {Threei} one of my correspondents sent to me this:
[14:57] {Threei} Have you ever heard the saying, “Besides that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?” Sorta’ fits.
[14:57] {Threei}
[14:58] {Chaeron} :))
[14:58] {dino} lol
[14:58] {Threei} good one :)
[14:58] {peterg} soon time for more gruesome humor; in deference
[14:59] {peterg} to genteel sensibilities, I will refrain
[14:59] {Chaeron} I think the definition of a good or "nice" day is a profitable one, period

[15:36] {Threei} with this volatility 40 cents drop for Qs is easy to do,
[15:36] {Threei} and 26 is former resistance it broke on this last thrust
