[09:01] {Threei} dp :)
[09:02] {esemde} dp
[09:06] {Threei} OK guys, we have two-pronged reason to stay on careful scalping only side today
[09:06] {Threei} one is obvious, this is Friday
[09:07] {Threei} another is, we had unusually easy day of trading yesterday
[09:07] {Threei} and the way things lately, market will punish any complacency we allow ourselves to get into
[09:08] {esemde} wasn't there for the whole day Vad....what do you mean by unusually easy
[09:08] {bruce} jump for joy - leap year is here
[09:08] {Threei} nice and easy to read moves on stocks that rarely are easy
[09:08] {Threei} bruce :)
[09:08] {bruce} vadster
[09:08] {esemde} hmmmmmm
[09:08] {Threei} AAPL for instance
[09:08] {esemde} bruce
[09:08] {bruce} hey ese
[09:09] {Threei} we played it several times, on both sides long and short,
[09:09] {esemde} well done gents
[09:09] {Threei} dptl was so oblivious to the "tough market" mantra that actually allowed himself to get full point profit on one of the calls,
[09:09] {Threei} made me jealous so on next one I did the same
[09:09] {Threei} and beat him by one cent
[09:09] {esemde} any reason for
[09:09] {Threei} (my darn competitive nature)
[09:10] {esemde} these easy moves....indexes predictable
[09:10] {esemde} ???
[09:10] {Threei} who knows... as a trader I don't ask why when I get easy ride, I simply kill a chicken and lay entrails to the feet of trading gods
[09:11] {dptl} lol
[09:11] {esemde} now that is an analogy....that i haven't heard before
[09:12] {Threei} requirement is to bring one's finest cheeses... but I love cheese myself so I cheat and give them what I don't eat anyway
[09:13] {Threei} so... under risk to be slapped silly by magoo, I intend (at least so far) to stay on conservative side, take only trades offering the least risk and be very picky overall
[09:13] {Threei} welcome to the room jjthetrader
[09:16] {Threei} welcome to the room ThurstonHowellTheThird

[11:15] {bruce} any read cmed vad - looks like long on 48 break - samll - risky

[11:17] {bruce} another possibility is nvda long on .57 break - stop would be small

[11:32] {bruce} figures - I'm away markets behave nicely
[11:32] {Threei} so you milked it for all it was capable of
[11:33] {bruce} still trying to get feel for thse kind of moves vad
[11:34] {Threei} I was very tempted to say "yeah me too"
[11:34] {Threei} then decided my wierd sense of humor will get me in troubles once again
[11:34] {dino} cmed stopped
[11:34] {magoo} OVTI went
[11:35] {bruce} wierdness pervaqdes this room vad
[11:35] * bruce slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[11:35] {bruce} there
[11:35] {bruce} I feel better already
[11:35] {Threei} you are still in OVTI mags??
[11:36] {Threei} tom OK, I can see him holding that long
[11:36] {magoo} no
[11:36] {Threei} but you?
[11:36] {Threei} you start slapping peole with trout if holding over 1 minute
[11:37] {bruce} thats just a release for an overall crappy day vad
[11:37] {Threei} so whiole I am at it... I stronlgy suggest new guys to duck when magoo unholsters that trout
[11:37] {bruce} time for some revenge trading
[11:37] {Threei} NVDA
[11:37] {Threei} long idea of .50 support
[11:38] {Threei} first strength from here
[11:38] {Threei} with stop as tight as they get
[11:38] {magoo} in .51
[11:38] {Threei} another way to play it is to put stop under .40
[11:39] {Threei} and let it play out, if it breaks .60 should be good for bigger move
[11:39] {Threei} if forces trying to keep market up are at work today again, they will do everything in their power to finish strongly today
[11:40] {Threei} so with 2 cents stop in one scenario or 12 in another... valid trade of support on pullback
[11:42] {Threei} here we go
[11:42] {magoo} like to .71?
[11:42] {Threei} hard core scalpers with stop at .49 have what 1:5?
[11:43] {Threei} hmmm
[11:43] {Threei} I can't assign numpers to the target mags
[11:44] {dino} cavm l .66, stop .34
[11:47] {magoo} that can't be it
[11:49] {bruce} l nvda .53
[11:51] {bruce} nvda gooing to put us to sleep
[11:54] {Threei} you sa it as if it were a bad thing
[11:55] {bruce} heck vad - that'll make us comatose - like you
[11:55] {Threei} again...
[11:55] {Threei} you say it as if it were a bad thing :)
[11:55] {bruce} lol - got me
[11:56] {bruce} we can do it as a range lay - in .52 out .55
[11:56] {bruce} over and over
[11:56] {Threei} lol
[11:57] {bruce} out
[11:57] {bruce} I was looking for move to about .70 like you mags
[11:57] {magoo} and with mkt pulling back
[11:57] {magoo} i am out
[11:59] {Threei} I am not sure I understand
[12:00] {Threei} if your stop was couple centsa, why not take at least part on 10 cents spike
[12:00] {Threei} and if your objective was for more, why so tight stop
[12:00] {magoo} actually, i just cut flat and reloaded lower is all
[12:00] {magoo} thought mkt was losing
[12:00] {Threei} risk/reward are part of the same equation
[12:00] {Threei} can't have one without the other
[12:00] {Threei} (Frank Sinatra)
[12:02] {bruce} looks like market selloff is coming mags
[12:03] {Threei} if it happens look to short RIMM .50
[12:06] {bruce} aapl hugging lows too vad - looks likewe csan take it short w fairly small stop
[12:09] {magoo} its all gonna depend on mkt
[12:10] {magoo} spike up they all gop
[12:10] {magoo} crash, we crash
[12:14] {bruce} thoughts on rimm vad? - looks like we need a stop to .90 if breaks down here
[12:14] {Threei} a bit too wide for my taste
[12:14] {bruce} same
[12:14] {Threei} if market breaks down fast, just short RIMM sggressively
[12:15] {Threei} that's if it pauses before dropping
[12:15] {Threei} if drops just as market does oh well
[12:15] {Threei} siply write it off as a trade than never gave you a chance
[12:17] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:17] {bruce} aapl broke - miised it - could have got .80 with stop to .04
[12:18] {dino} cavm stop to b/e
[12:18] {magoo} anyone short RIMM here?
[12:19] {ThurstonHowellTheThird} .55
[12:19] {Threei} little help by market and should work
[12:19] {magoo} i sh @ .65
[12:21] {magoo} covered .50
[12:22] {dino} cavm stop to .96
[12:23] {bruce} cool beans mags -

[12:24] {Threei} market is not giving many easy ones today
[12:24] {bruce} yeah- noticed that dino
[12:26] {bruce} market not giving many easy ones this year vad
[12:26] {magoo} shouldn't rimm bounce with mkt vad?
[12:26] {dino} glad i stopped
[12:26] {bruce} only if I short it mags
[12:27] {Threei} it did but somehow not very convincingly
[12:27] {magoo} are u bruce? lol
[12:27] {Threei} here goes your NVDA
[12:27] {bruce} not yet mags
[12:28] {dino} esrx l .48, stop .18
[12:28] {Threei} 11:39] {Threei} if forces trying to keep market up are at work today again, they will do everything in their power to finish strongly today
[12:29] {Threei} looks like they are
[12:30] {dino} i can only buy so much 3i
[12:30] {Threei} come on... sell farm and kids
[12:30] {Threei} I am switching to longs
[12:30] {bruce} especially kids

[12:42] {bruce} k
[12:42] {Threei} NQ heard us
[12:42] {Threei} AAPL is holding though
[12:43] {dino} esrx stopped
[12:44] {bruce} riim skirting lows again

[12:52] {Threei} hmm

[12:53] {Threei} in my mind, we are going through shakeouts before ramping up
[12:53] {magoo} dam..OVTI vad
[12:53] {Threei} hard to tell how long those shakes will take
[12:53] {dino} shaking me
[12:53] {bruce} we finally have a higher low in rimm if .54 holds now
[12:54] {Threei} OVTI pullbacks are too deep... otherwise, yeah, attacks highs time and again
[12:55] {Threei} not rushing into longs, want to see pattern confirmation first

[13:41] {Threei} now it's matter of "shrug it off and do what intened" or "OK, Plan B" for the market
[13:41] {Threei} kind of starting it all over again,

[08:45] {magoo} morning
[08:47] {Threei} magoo :)

[08:57] {Threei} - Co plans to have Tecstar convert popular SUV and light truck vehicles to 100 mpg plug-in series hybrid vehicles with 40 mile all electric range
[08:58] {Threei} AAPL looks happy so far
[09:01] {cosmo} LVLT: # Level 3 and IBM Announce Patent Cross-LicensePR Newswire(Thu 8:00am)
[09:01] {cosmo} 2.45 high so far
[09:02] {magoo} we been up 4 straight sessions now vad, sooner or later a normal pullbk at least imho
[09:05] {Threei} yes... but it's so obvious that I have hard time accepting it :)
[09:06] {dptl} good morning all
[09:08] {magoo} right, but i do not mean today, just aware of it
[09:08] {Threei} dp :)
[09:08] {magoo} most pain to most would be continued strength here
[09:09] {magoo} then when shorts capit and everybody just can not take being out and goes in long........POW BEAR TRAP
[09:09] {Threei} eqzaktly
[09:10] {Threei} bear rallies can be extremely powerful, and that's what we see
[09:10] {esemde} good morning.....
[09:10] {Threei} ese :)
[09:13] {dino} gm all
[09:13] {Threei} dino :)
[09:13] {esemde} dino
[09:14] {dino} :)
[09:15] {esemde} just reading your post mags about being up 4 sessions....seems like indexes are at the top of a consolidation ....possible breakout pattern
[09:18] {dino} pull up a chart take a look at ndx nov - feb
[09:19] {esemde} i'm there dino
[09:19] {Threei} clean bear
[09:19] {esemde} yup...
[09:19] {dino} top of recent range 1824
[09:19] {dino} 2/13
[09:20] {dino} 1/25 and 2/1 1864
[09:20] {esemde} yup...
[09:24] {esemde} hmmmm I still we have a bounce of some kind coming....maybe to1900 to 1950 level on the NDX
[09:25] {esemde} short covering bounce maybe?
[09:26] {Threei} quite possible ese... squeeze is a good way for bear market to make sure it proceeds lower with as few on board as possible
[09:27] {Threei} problem with reading it is, market is very subjected to all kinds of news/rumors, easily moved by them
[09:28] {Threei} slightest hint of those, and mood changes on a dime
[09:28] {Threei} that's how those insane spikes are created, like one on Friday
[09:28] {esemde} indeed
[09:29] {_leo1} hi
[09:30] {esemde} leo
[09:30] {Threei} leo :)
[09:31] {Threei} watching AAPL for bounce
[09:31] {magoo} me too
[09:31] {magoo} mkts down vad 91 though
[09:32] {Threei} from under 126
[09:32] {magoo} would have been great short..i was considering
[09:32] {magoo} 1215.50 more like
[09:33] {magoo} 125.50
[09:34] {Threei} scalped quickly on 126 cross back... you would have to be much quicker on the trigger than ii you waited for exact call
[09:37] {magoo} its gonna be a good short scalp
[09:39] {Threei} RIMM .20 break long
[09:39] {Threei} stop under 111
[09:39] {Threei} 1:2
[09:39] {Threei} out
[09:39] {Threei} 1:3, crying
[09:39] {Threei} 1:2 again, not crying anymore
[09:40] {magoo} i crying missed both calls
[09:40] {Threei} things happen very quickly this morning
[09:40] {Threei} crying again as RIMM hits 1:4
[09:42] {Threei} full buck
[09:43] {Threei} keeping an eye on COIN
[09:43] {Threei} despite SEED debacle shows strength still
[09:44] {Threei} AAPL 127.50 nearest support
[09:45] {Threei} won't hold probably
[09:47] {Threei} if holding above .30, .61 long
[09:47] {Threei} sheesh
[09:47] {Threei} don't chase
[09:48] {magoo} maybe rimm bounce vad? a little slower
[09:48] {Threei} whole trade would have taken like 5 seconds
[09:48] {Threei} and I missed it while typed, lol
[09:49] {Threei} 128 break long AAPl again if stays above .75
[09:49] {Threei} this one is less readable but still worth a try
[09:50] {magoo} in
[09:50] {magoo} ,095
[09:50] {magoo} .95
[09:50] {Threei} RIMM is coming into bounce level too
[09:52] {Threei} oversat AAPL probably, wanted .30
[09:52] {Threei} second chance
[09:52] {Threei} out
[09:52] {magoo} out .27
[09:52] {magoo} TY
[09:52] {dino} l gtls .95, stop .67

[09:55] {dino} stopped glts .69, -.26
[09:55] {Threei} OK, this pullback should be deeper
[09:56] {Threei} AAPL looks to lose support this time
[09:56] {Threei} and RIMM is short on 111 breakdown
[09:57] {Threei} stop above .20
[09:57] {Threei} 1:1

[08:40] {magoo} do not remember
[08:41] {Threei} one person, coming on TV and speculating about bond insurers bailout
[08:41] {Threei} and that was what sent markets flying
[08:41] {Threei} believe it or not
[08:41] {Threei} sooo... today someone comes on TV and says no way - imagine what happens hnext
[08:41] {Threei} or rumor comes true
[08:42] {Threei} or some third turn of events comes along
[08:42] {Threei} thus... I am putting my crystal ball back in the sandal box, and just going with immediate developments
[08:44] {cosmo} MRVL (Barrons likes it) pre mkt high = 11.60 so far
[08:45] {magoo} gotcha..this mkt has no committment to either direction
[08:45] {magoo} unless its one committment is to reverse
[08:45] {Threei} and it's bound to change any minute
[08:45] {magoo} seems its been reversing everyday
[08:46] {Threei} I can't imagine what investors are going through when even we daytraders get overwhelmed sometimes by how quickly things change these days
[08:48] {cosmo} its the climate i think
[08:49] {Threei} and its change?
[08:49] {Threei} TASR

[08:49] {Threei} - The second order received was from the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department in Sacramento, CA, for 180 TASER X26 ECDs and related accessories.
[08:49] {Threei} FORMER FED CHAIRMAN GREENSPAN: RECESSION WILL NOT BE SIGNIFICANTLY LONGER THAN THE LAST
- Would not be surprised if this recession is deeper
[08:49] {Threei} - Finance problems marginally affected the economy
[08:49] {Threei} - House prices to continue to fall
[08:50] {Threei} US WEIGHS SANCTIONS ON IRAN'S CENTRAL BANK - WSJ- The Treasury Department is gathering evidence it says shows that the central bank of Iran is helping other Iranian institutions elude US economic sanctions, in what could be a prelude to penalties against the central bank.

[10:11] {magoo} no way to catch 15
[10:11] {Threei} that's a good question
[10:12] {dino} same feeling 3i, somethings' about to give big time
[10:12] {Threei} so let's make bets?
[10:12] {Threei} up or down?
[10:12] {patience} big time down
[10:12] {lumdus} vad, when you get a chance. Can you look at my teva trade. Did i screw up ?
[10:12] {esemde} i feel for some reason it's going to head up.....it just has not been selling down hard like it did in mid january
[10:13] {dino} i'm going contrary, everybody wants down, so i'll take up
[10:13] {esemde} i'm with you dino
[10:14] {Threei} lum, I see your entry
[10:14] {dino} great monds think alike, :)
[10:14] {Threei} what happened next?
[10:14] {dino} minds
[10:14] {magoo} well, i thought up
[10:14] {magoo} so everybody is thinking up
[10:14] {lumdus} i put a stop on 49.17 and triggered vad
[10:14] {Threei} way too tight, IMO
[10:15] {Threei} my trailing would be:
[10:15] {lumdus} ......
[10:15] {lumdus} 49.07 ?
[10:15] {Threei} .09 after it broke .20,
[10:15] {Threei} .15 after it broke .30
[10:15] {lumdus} ok. in short i screwed up. thank you.
[10:15] {lumdus} at now would be .26
[10:16] {Threei} right
[10:16] {Threei} remember our Fri discussion on trailing stops?
[10:16] {Threei} this is good illustration, trail them as chart dictates
[10:16] {Threei} meaning:
[10:16] {Threei} stock formed new range as it moves in your favor,
[10:16] {Threei} broke resistance of that range,
[10:16] {lumdus} vad, this wasn't trailing stop. this was a manual hard stop i put in.
[10:17] {Threei} now you can move stop under support of that reange
[10:17] {Threei} I under stand, but yoyu trailed it the same way
[10:17] {Threei} by arbitrary amount of cents, not by chart logic
[10:18] {lumdus} right .. but don't blame this on the trailing stop. this was a mental crack.
[10:18] {dptl} out ntap+.20 ty
[10:18] {Threei} welcome dp
[10:18] {esemde} out NTAP .72
[10:18] {Threei} yes lum, I realize that
[10:18] {esemde} be back in a while ...have to take vehicle to garage
[10:18] {esemde} seee ya in a bit
[10:18] {Threei} take care ese
[10:19] {Threei} one concern here lum:
[10:19] {Threei} was it accidental mental crack,
[10:19] {Threei} or was it approach that those autotrailing stops instill in your thinking?
[10:19] {Threei} give it a thought when you have time :)
[10:20] {Threei} and keep in mind, thinking causes headache...
[10:20] {Threei} in me at least
[10:20] {Threei} NTAP hit 1:1 nicely guys
[10:20] {Threei} hard to tell whether it has potential for more
[10:21] {Threei} even if you believe so, play it safe and take half
[10:21] {magoo} waiting .77
[10:21] {magoo} may be high
[10:21] {Threei} closest support right now is .64
[10:22] {curtisweese} NVDA buy at 22.38 or so?
[10:22] {Threei} if it can't take .73 and loses .64, holding full position would be questionable trade management
[10:22] {bruce} rimm looks headed for a break
[10:22] {bruce} of previous days high
[10:23] {Threei} curtis, tough read... not sure
[10:24] {curtisweese} heheh...dropping now.....not gonna get there anyway
[10:24] {magoo} still just scalpers mkt
[10:25] {Threei} look at volume last 20-30 minutes
[10:25] {Threei} all but disappeared
[10:27] {curtisweese} In on NVDA at 22.38
[10:28] {magoo} would u remind me that i hate IDMI next time u put it up
[10:28] {Threei} certainly
[10:28] {Threei} if I ever get to call it, it's going to be in the following format:
[10:28] {Threei} IDMI blah blah blah, magoo stay away
[10:29] {Threei} don't torture yourself, you are 3 cents down here, take your lumps and go if it takes too much of your attention
[10:29] {curtisweese} out NVDA +$.10
[10:30] {magoo} OUT .77
[10:30] {Threei} wtg
[10:30] {magoo} TY
[10:30] {magoo} more my type
[10:30] {Threei} I manage this trade differently but hey
[10:30] {Threei} there is more than 1 way to skin a stock
[10:30] {lumdus} in bby 44.73
[10:31] {Threei} my approach is, half out at 1:1, that was .72 for me,
[10:31] {Threei} stop to b/e,
[10:31] {Threei} now that it made new high, stop to .55
[10:32] {Threei} which is just below the support it formed by last pullback
[10:32] {Threei} will report what I do as (and if) it moves if you are interested
[10:39] {magoo} isn't there a new independent NTAPO trade setting up here? looks like 23 magnate
[10:39] {Threei} stop to .59
[10:40] {Threei} sure... just risk is higher
[10:41] {Threei} next spike will take NTAP into 1:2 where I intend to dump 1/4 more
[10:41] {curtisweese} looking at NVDA again if breaks 22.50 ....so .52 or so for me
[10:41] {Threei} and trail stop to .65
[10:44] {dino} fre s .70, stop hod
[10:45] {lumdus} vad, bby 45.59 stop ok ?
[10:45] {Threei} yes sir
[10:45] {lumdus} ok. thanks. i hate watching teva just go without me. kill me
[10:46] {Threei} out 1/4 more NTAP
[10:46] {magoo} see what i meant by magnate?
[10:46] {Threei} .95
[10:46] {Threei} by magnet I guess? :) yes
[10:46] {magoo} lol
[10:47] {Threei} stop to .73
[10:47] {Threei} move is quite significant, time to start tightenting it
[10:48] {bruce} zinc vad - any reade?
[10:48] {Threei} .79 is reasonable stop too here
[10:49] {curtisweese} in on NVDA at 22.51
[10:49] {Threei} a bit too thin bruce
[10:49] {bruce} k vad
[10:49] {Threei} rug pull on this one would cost a lot of slippage
[10:50] {dino} fre stopp .00, -.30
[10:50] {Threei} market looks like preparing to explode to the upside once again, so I am tightening NTAP to .79
[10:50] {Threei} logic is,
[10:50] {magoo} i like NTAP for a short scalp soon
[10:51] {Threei} if market does move up sharply, NTASP better go with it or I don't want to be in anymore,
[10:51] {Threei} and if market fails, NTAP is not likely to hold up there, moved a lot as it is
[10:52] {magoo} also, if mkt starts to fail, RIMM and NVDA short potential
[10:53] {dino} aapl sm l .90
[10:57] {lumdus} stop on bby 44.85
[10:57] {Threei} good trail lum
[10:58] {Threei} NTAP almost 1:3

[11:01] {tomg} :)
[11:01] {Threei} you know it's very rude of you to make such prfoit on your first day after long vacation?
[11:02] {magoo} vad, whats the symbol for NDX?
[11:02] {Threei} and you know what magoo does to people who act like this?
[11:02] {tomg} uh, oh...
[11:02] {Threei} $NDX mags
[11:03] {magoo} ty
[11:04] {dino} aapl stopped -.35
[11:07] {magoo} RIMM Short setup vad?
[11:08] {Threei} hmm
[11:09] {Threei} rather bounce if market doesn't dive
[11:09] {dino} teso s .05 stop .36
[11:10] {Threei} first strength from here, RIMM
[11:11] {Threei} in
[11:11] {Threei} stop .29
[11:12] {Threei} market is still unclear but risk is small
[11:12] {Threei} stopped
[11:12] {bruce} stopped rimm
[11:13] {magoo} i was thinking short way back on loss of 110
[11:13] {Threei} sideline for now, gotta let NQ decide on direction
[11:14] {Threei} 110 was behind at the time of the question...
[11:14] {magoo} was still thinking it
[11:14] {magoo} lol
[11:14] {Threei} just shows you how tough it is to comment in time on fast movers
[11:14] {magoo} true that
[11:15] {magoo} long RIMM now
[11:15] {magoo} in .37
[11:18] {Threei} wow TTWO
[11:18] {Threei} I don't see fresh news
[11:18] {magoo} on CNBC'
[11:18] {Threei} ah
[11:18] {dino} takeover offer at 25
[11:18] {bruce} erts offered to buy it out
[11:18] {Threei} 26 I think
[11:19] {magoo} stopped RIMM
[11:19] {esemde} I'm back.......TTWO I'll say......what was the news
[11:19] {dino} massive short squeeze, something like 40%
[11:19] {Threei} 02/24/08 03:26pm [TTWO] ERTS reveals a hostile $26.00/shr cash offer for TTWO in a $2B deal; TTWO has rejected the offer until at least the 4/30

[11:30] {lumdus} nice bruce
[11:30] {bruce} thanx lum
[11:30] {bruce} lucky
[11:30] {bruce} thanx vad
[11:31] {Threei} GLBL chart is right... I am just hesitant about taking position here, market is very indecisive
[11:31] {dptl} ok
[11:35] {dino} teso stopped -.30
[11:40] {Threei} AAPL short with stop above .30
[11:40] {Threei} hard to nail exact entry
[11:41] {Threei} kind of "see if you can read it"
[11:41] {Threei} down quickly... don't chase that far
[11:41] {Threei} see if can get a bounce or new consolidation
[11:45] {bruce} stopped aapl
[11:50] {Threei} NTAP exit was just right so far
[11:50] {Threei} 4 cents under day high
[11:50] {Threei} keeping an eye on it still, maybe forms something
[11:51] {Threei} short off 23 resistance is one idea
[11:57] {Threei} ANY ABK DEAL WOULD LIKELY BE EARLY NEXT WEEK
[11:57] {Threei} reminder, ABK rumor was what started huge rally on Fri
[11:59] {magoo} are u short aapl?
[11:59] {Threei} I am flat
[11:59] {bruce} watching trma for weakness dino
[12:00] {Chaeron} I'm bald and fat
[12:05] {bruce} not me chaeron
[12:05] {bruce} just old and ugly
[12:06] {magoo} drunk and stupid here
[12:06] {Threei} aren't we attractive bunch
[12:06] {bruce} any read zolt vad?
[12:06] {Threei} ugh
[12:07] {Threei} twice I looked at it, twice kept myself from it, and twice was wrong
[12:07] {Threei} at 24, then at 24.5
[12:07] {Threei} I would really prefer a pullback on it rather than break
[12:08] {bruce} k
[12:14] {Threei} and what do you know... third break and no sign of pullback
[12:16] {Threei} now there is some
[12:16] {Threei} 25 is nearest support
[12:16] {Threei} if losing it, .75 next
[12:16] {bruce} I'm thinking possible short vad
[12:17] {Threei} considering weakening market, valid
[12:18] {Threei} it's just that again, I wouldn't want to chase it down
[12:18] {Threei} this drop we are seeing came with no indication of entry
[12:18] {bruce} agreed - wold like it to form second lower top
[12:18] {Threei} yes, or consolidation and breakdown
[12:29] {bruce} erts long on .30 break vad?
[12:30] {Threei} with .15 stop
[12:30] {Threei} most likely scalp only
[12:31] {Threei} it has downtrending look still, need more confirmation of reversal
[12:31] {Threei} .16 is actually still short trigger if stayys under .30
[12:35] {dino} grmn l sm .20
[12:37] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:37] * Chaeron slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:37] * magoo slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:37] {Threei} we are obviously very welcoming bunch too
[12:38] {Laserdave1} nice to see you guys as well
[12:38] {Laserdave1} hope weekend was good
[12:39] {Threei} ZOLT forms that double top bruce
[12:39] {Threei} 25 breakdown becomes short trigger if stays under first high
[12:40] {bruce} yep - just noticed that vad
[12:40] {Threei} actual stop will be defined by the high if this bounce
[12:40] {Threei} so far it's .25
[12:41] {bruce} prefer to see .22 hold for this top
[12:41] {bruce} got you - already hit .25
[12:45] {Threei} I don't like how ERTS sits here
[12:45] {Threei} if this NQ upward spike doesn't move it soon, it's still a short
[12:46] {bruce} s zolt .14 - stop .30
[12:47] {Threei} market spikes
[12:47] {Threei} if ZOLT can't use this spike, will be a good short
[12:51] {bruce} yes - enterd too early
[12:51] {Threei} not necessary
[12:51] {Threei} a bit aggressive but who said it's bad thing
[12:52] {bruce} market spiked right after entry
[12:52] {dino} spwr l sm .20
[12:52] {magoo} any rerad RIMM vad?like it long
[12:53] {Threei} sorry mags, no read
[12:53] {magoo} aapl?
[12:53] {Threei} 108 break was more or less decent trigger on RIMM
[12:53] {Threei} here, no
[12:53] {Threei} AAPL chart is even less readable
[12:54] {Chaeron} so nap time?
[12:54] {Threei} ERTS is trying
[12:55] {Threei} 1:1's reached
[12:58] {Threei} moves a bit higher but I preferto take scalp
[13:02] {bruce} stopped zolt -.16
[13:05] {bruce} vad - rimm as possible long near here?
[13:06] {Threei} with stop under .50
[13:06] {Threei} it's very much NQ-dependent
[13:06] {Threei} market will make or break this trade
[13:06] {esemde} Vad ddc please
[13:07] {bruce} missed it - was thinking .80break and notgoing to chase
[13:08] {magoo} l rimm .86
[13:11] {esemde} I'm otta here everyone....have a great rest of the day
[13:11] {magoo} bye ES
[13:11] {esemde} see ya magoo
[13:12] {Threei} take care ese
[13:12] {bruce} l rimm .75
[13:15] {Threei} market is swamp right now
[13:17] {bruce} stopped rimm -.26
[13:17] {magoo} stopped rimm{again}
[13:18] {Threei} don't push it guys... sideline time
[13:18] {Threei} 5 points range
[13:21] {Threei} if a 50/50 trade with 6 cents stop is to your liking, short NVDA with .21 stop
[13:22] {Threei} downticked fast from .15 which I had in mind
[13:29] {bruce} rimm bounce at 108 vad?
[13:30] {Threei} can't tell bruce... market breaks down more so does RIMM
[13:30] {bruce} k
[13:31] {Threei} NVDA worked for a little scalp
[13:35] {Threei} pains me to say but... GRMN is short if losing .60
[13:35] {Threei} half lot .58 trigger
[13:36] {dino} grmn stopped
[13:36] {Threei} stop .75
[13:38] {magoo} target GRMN?
[13:39] {Threei} stop to .71, the rest is in NQ hands
[13:39] {Threei} not clear if it's breakdown for NQ or bounce off double bottom
[13:39] {Threei} feels like breakdown is more likely
[13:41] {Threei} NQ says yeah right
[13:43] {Threei} 1:1
[13:44] {Threei} I am out, can't get a read
[13:45] {Threei} RIMM bounce is not very impressive
[13:45] {Threei} looking to short .50 if market reverses down
[13:46] {magoo} grmn not with naz vad
[13:46] {magoo} weaker
[13:46] {Threei} nope, lost connection
[13:47] {Threei} RIMM is a bit too far from .50 support now for comfortable shorting on breakdown
[13:48] {Threei} if NQ drops, aggressive entry will be better idea
[13:48] {Threei} 108 is nearest resistance for stop/invalidating level
[13:48] {Threei} you still holding GRMN mags?
[13:49] {magoo} noi
[13:49] {magoo} out w/u
[13:49] {Threei} OK
[13:53] {Threei} psycho market again

[13:58] {lumdus} in wye 42.20
[13:59] {Threei} NVDA long for a scalp here
[13:59] {Threei} with stop under 22
[14:01] {lumdus} bruce, better days ahead ..
[14:08] {Threei} NQ spike would be what is least expected here
[14:08] {Threei} considering market's unique ability to do the most unexpected things lately...
[14:08] {Threei} let's see if it does just that
[14:09] {lumdus} all you need to do, is put on the crazy hat and you make good in this market.

[14:15] {Threei} exactly what I did, and look how flawlessly it worked
[14:17] {lumdus} yup, that's the way it works these day.
[14:17] {lumdus} i think we break .20 and move 1 big huge spike
[14:23] {Threei} NVDA stop to .04
[14:23] {magoo} target NVDA exit?

[14:30] {Threei} [14:08] {Threei} considering market's unique ability to do the most unexpected things lately...
[14:30] {Threei} [14:08] {Threei} let's see if it does just that
[14:30] {Threei} can I go home?
[14:30] {Chaeron} you are home
[14:31] {lumdus} no, you get punhished badly. we should have stayed in for another .50 at least.
