[09:25] {Threei}  [GM] General Motors Corp GMAC unit approved by Fed as bank holding co; Utah Dept of Financial institutions also approves GMAC Bank as a State bank
[09:25] {Threei}  -The Federal Reserve stated it stepped in ahead of Friday's GMAC debt for equity exchange deadline, citing "emergency conditions" are needed to speed GMAC's approval and ensure good participation Friday.
[09:25] {Threei}  -Vote was 4-1. Ms. Duke the head of the American Bankers Association was the sole dissenter.
[09:25] {Threei}  -As a condition of the sale the Fed requires GM to reduce its stake in GMAC from 49% to 10%. The other majority owner, PE firm Cerberus, will also be required to reduce its stake in GMAC to a range of 15-33% from 51% currently.
[09:27] {Onix} the plot thickens
[09:30] {Threei}  AMZN
[09:31] {Threei}  half lot long closer to 53
[09:31] {Threei}  never mind
[09:31] {Threei}  lol
[09:35] {Threei}  .55 long if holding .40
[09:35] {magoo} watching PLD
[09:36] {magoo} missed it
[09:39] {lisa_jay} GRMN Vad?
[09:40] {Threei}  not sure, too low volume
[09:41] {lisa_jay} Ok, thanks.
[09:42] {Threei} Long Setup:  RIMM  half lot 41 break if stays above 40.80
[09:43] {dino} vol. low on everything
[09:43] {Threei}  only natural for such day
[09:43] {Threei}  PLD
[09:44] {Threei}  either pullback into 13 area for long
[09:44] {Threei}  or .60 break
[09:44] {Threei}  stop under .40
[09:44] {Threei}  break is much riskier
[09:46] {Threei}  half out .75
[09:47] {Threei}  offer 1/4 more .above .90
[09:48] {Threei}  stop trailed to under .50
[09:48] {magoo} took 87
[09:48] {magoo} TY vad
[09:48] {Threei}  welcome
[09:49] {tomg} ty vad
[09:49] {Threei}  :)
[09:50] {dino} cb l hl .74
[09:51] {Threei}  stop to .55
[09:52] {dino} cb stop to .98
[09:54] {Threei}  double top at .90... really needs to break it this time or it's done for the time beeing
[09:54] {dino} out cb +.24
[09:55] {Threei}  out PLD balance
[09:56] {Threei}  stkl
[09:56] {Threei}  never mind, wrong window
[10:01] {Threei}  going over 14, PLD... hard to nail entry though
[10:01] {dino} afam sm l .35, stop .98
[10:02] {dino} thin, gappy
[10:03] {Threei} Long Setup:  PLD  .25 half lot
[10:03] {Threei}  stop under 14
[10:03] {Threei}  PLD goes significantly higher, IMO
[10:04] {Threei}  just too volatile
[10:04] {dino} air pocket afam tighten to .04
[10:06] {Threei}  half out .45 PLD
[10:06] {Threei}  stop to under .20
[10:07] {Threei}  offering balance at .75
[10:07] {magoo} waiting 67
[10:07] {Threei}  not looking
[10:07] {Threei}  just waiting for machine-gun sound of order filled
[10:08] {Threei}  on either side
[10:10] {Threei}  Ok
[10:10] {dino} afam stopped
[10:10] {Threei}  waiting for deeper pullback
[10:10] {Onix} hig?
[10:11] {Threei}  HIG, if market starts moving I'd try .80 break
[10:11] {Threei}  stop under .70 for scalpers
[10:11] {Onix} ty
[10:11] {lisa_jay} amzn
[10:12] {Threei}  HIG looks strong enough to try but it does need market help
[10:12] {Onix} ty
[10:22] {Threei}  whether you partialed or not when it hit 1;1, stop is now under .80
[10:24] {Onix} out .89 ty
[10:25] {Threei}  :)
[10:26] {Onix} RMBS?

[10:28] {Threei}  half lot
[10:28] {magoo} ty
[10:29] {Threei}  it has look of "surprise is coming"... just low volume day with few players that can cause fizzle-out instead of real run
[10:29] {Threei}  if loses .80 wait for bounce entry near .50
[10:29] {magoo} yeah..but traders were on it wed and they know
[10:32] {Threei}  anyone caught this dip to .53?
[10:32] {magoo} i got 67
[10:33] {Threei}  a bit high...
[10:33] {magoo} yeah
[10:34] {Threei}  try to exit half at least around .80
[10:41] {Onix} fortunately i missed it
[10:43] {lisa_jay} lol
[10:45] {Threei}  it gave a scalp with entry close to .50
[10:45] {Threei}  missed near 13 though
