[13:33] {Threei} guys, while we are waiting for Big Ben to tell us where the happiness is
[13:33] {Threei} http://www.realitytrader.com/blog/2008/04/traders-job.html
[13:42] {Threei} full room of sleeping beauties...
[13:42] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[13:50] * Chaeron slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[13:51] {Threei} CSIQ unusually strong
[13:51] {Threei} not sure what gives... FSLR retreated, market too
[13:51] {Threei} usually this thing follows
[13:57] {dino} ok., dji will go to flat or slight neg., then bounce to 90, then back down,close neg.
[13:58] {patience} great post vad, just read it after finishing my daughter's income tax
[13:58] {Threei} thank you
[13:58] {patience} amount of paperwork for revenue canada is quite the reality check
[13:59] {Threei} meaning, trees be damned?
[14:00] {patience} paper for her first income tax, electronic starting next year
[14:08] {Threei} that's going to be one crazy show after Fed announcement
[14:10] {dino} hod
[14:10] {Threei} 5 min
[14:12] {Threei} playing "what I would do if I were Fed"... I'd do no cut, expressing confidence in economy, spiking USD and tanking oil
[14:12] {Threei} first knee jerk reaction would be down, then rally
[14:15] {dino} thats what i want, no change
[14:15] {Threei} me too
[14:15] {Threei} 1/4 cut
[14:15] {dino} 1/4
[14:17] {Threei} oh good... market moves in two directions at the same time
[14:17] {Threei} - Economic activity remains weak
[14:17] {Threei} - Vote was 8-2 for cut (Fisher, Plosser dissented, preferred no change in rates)
[14:17] {Threei} - Uncertainty on inflation outlook remains high, labor markets have softended, financial markets under considerable stress
[14:17] {Threei} - Notes the substantial easing of monetary policy to date should help promote moderate growth over time
[14:17] {Threei} - Inflation seen moderating but will monitor carefully
[14:19] {dino} cme 3 buck spread
[14:20] {dino} ntrs s[pike
[14:20] {dino} nah
[14:20] {Threei} - Says readings on core inflation somewhat improved, but energy, commodity prices up, some inflation expectations have risen
[14:20] {Threei} - Board vote to cut discount rate was unanimous
[14:20] {Threei} FOMC DROPS REFERENCE TO DOWNSIDE GROWTH
[14:21] {Threei} NQ chart is something
[14:22] {Threei} COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CURRENT AND MARCH FOMC STATEMENTS: FOMC DROPS REFERENCE TO DOWNSIDE RISKS TO GROWTH
- this change in the balance of risks statement was one of the anticipated signals that the Fed is now on hold. They also added that the 'substantial' easing to dated should promote growth, again signaling that they are ready to let the cuts that are now in place to work through the economy.
[14:22] {Threei} - the rest of the statement is largely unchanged: the FOMC reiterated it will 'act as needed' to promote it
[14:23] {dino} dbtk s .58 sm, stop .81
[14:24] {Threei} SIRI AND XMSR EXTEND MERGER AGREEMENT- agreed not to exercise their rights to terminate the Merger Agreement prior to May 15, 2008. SIRIUS and XM also announced that they have agreed to further extend the merger agreement, as necessary, for rolling two week periods unless either side notifies the other of its intention not to extend.
[14:29] {dino} ok i'll say it... that's the most boring fed reaction in years
[14:30] {dino} oh mannnnnnnnnnnn, swiper. i'm glad i have a tee time in 90 minutes
[14:42] {Threei} I have to agree, this is quite unusual reaction
[14:42] {Threei} sharp spikes in both directions is normal,
[14:43] {Threei} but staying locked in relatively narrow range for so long after that is not
[14:47] {Threei} AAPL seems to be the best follower
[14:47] {Threei} when direction finally resolves, I'd use it
[14:50] {bruce} economy is stalled vad
[14:50] {bruce} without you to spend your massive nigerian wealth we're all doomed
[14:50] {bruce} recession
[14:50] {bruce} depression
[14:51] {Threei} hmmm
[14:51] {Threei} see, here is the problem
[14:51] {Threei} I spent it, even before I obtained it
[14:52] {dino} back in 15

Apr 29 2008

Session Time: Tue Apr 29 00:00:00 2008



[08:21] {Threei} SDTH
[08:21] {Threei} ADDS THREE NEW CUSTOMERS, UPDATES INTERNATIONAL MARKET EXPANSION
- Announced it has successfully added three international customers in the first quarter of 2008, and is in active discussions with more than 10 potential international customers.
[08:43] {hawkfan4} good morning
[08:43] {Threei} Good morning
[08:50] {dptl} good morning all
[08:50] {Threei} dp :)
[08:51] {Onix} Good morning all you hard-working people!
[08:51] {Threei} onix :)
[08:51] {Threei} that's flattering for us, very lazy types
[08:52] {hawkfan4} great, now i feel like i have to get out of my pj's :)
[08:52] {Threei} oh no
[08:52] {Onix} oh no, this scalping/trading business is very "hard" work ... well, difficult is the beter word I suppose
[08:52] {dino} gm all
[08:52] {Threei} that could start dangerous trend
[08:52] {Threei} dino :)
[08:53] {Threei} it's not really, Onix
[08:53] {Threei} or, I better put it this way
[08:53] {Threei} it is what you chose it to be
[08:54] {Threei} interestingly enough most sucessful are those who chose it to be fun
[08:54] {Onix} whaw ... that seems a long way off for me
[08:55] {Threei} follow the process, you'll get there
[08:55] {Onix} but I can see your point .. it could certainly be a lot of fun once you know what you're doing
[08:55] {Threei} yes, and the best part is:
[08:55] {Threei} it's not a rocket science
[08:56] {Threei} if there are obstacles on this path, those are barricades you erect within yourself
[08:56] {Threei} pure technicals aspects of trading ar fairly simple
[08:57] {Threei} unless you elect to mire yourself down in zillion of indicators and studies
[08:57] {Onix} have not read you latest part of the psychology on the blog, but I believe you 100%
[08:57] {Threei} as you can imagine, during my time in markets I've seen many failed traders,
[08:58] {Threei} so let me tell you this:
[08:58] {Threei} none of them failed because they couldn't get down technical aspects of trading
[08:58] {magoo} morning
[08:58] {Threei} literally, NONE
[08:58] {Threei} mags :)
[08:59] {Onix} so, reading the setups and the entering & exiting are not the worst of it?
[08:59] {Threei} some, not too may, failed because their personality was absolutely adverse to trading environment
[09:00] {Threei} most did because they never recognized where the major culprit is, or refused to do anything about it, or were too rigid to allow themselves to change
[09:00] {Threei} fact is:
[09:01] {Threei} your trading is reflection of who you are, because trading is just a part of life in general, and not a some kind of stand-alone application
[09:01] {magoo} so what was major culprit?
[09:02] {Threei} just like success in sports, in business, in relationships, and whatnot
[09:02] {Threei} requires interal changes in your mindset
[09:02] {Threei} so does success in trading
[09:02] {Threei} setups, entries, exits is secondary
[09:02] {Threei} and relatively simple part
[09:02] {Onix} so if you are a nervous, indecisive person, you will have a hard time in this environment?
[09:02] {Threei} not saying it's unnecessary
[09:03] {Threei} just saying it's not too complicated
[09:03] {Threei} ummm
[09:03] {Threei} you are oversimplifying it
[09:03] {Threei} it's all about how you apply it
[09:04] {Threei} nervous person can translate in careful trader
[09:04] {magoo} put up the blog link vad and oill go read it
[09:04] {Onix} OK I'll buy that one
[09:04] {Onix} thanks Vad
[09:04] {Threei} it's right on the homepage magoo
[09:05] {magoo} what is the major culprit?
[09:05] * Threei slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[09:05] {magoo} gonna make me go to home page??{lazy magioo}
[09:05] {fernp} gm all
[09:05] {Threei} fernp :)
[09:06] {GeoArb} gm
[09:07] {Threei} geo :)
[09:08] {esemde} good morning....
[09:09] {Threei} ese :)
[09:09] {esemde} had to reinstallreality trader program again this morning
[09:09] {esemde} bizarre
[09:10] {Threei} does whole program disappear or just a shortcut?
[09:10] {esemde} I think the program
[09:10] {esemde} because I have to reinstall
[09:11] {Threei} next time it happens, try to locate the program
[09:12] {esemde} will do
[09:12] {Threei} go to C, Program Files, look for RTC
[09:12] {Threei} if it's there, it's just a shortcut
[09:12] {Threei} and you can launch the program by clicking on mirc.32.exe
[09:12] {Threei} and restore shortcut by right click on it,
[09:13] {Threei} Create shortcut
[09:13] {esemde} the thing that comes up is the reality trader install connector
[09:14] {esemde} when i click on the destop icon it can't find the program
[09:14] {esemde} so i then just reinstall
[09:14] {bruce} didn't you just get computer cleaned for virus ese?
[09:14] {esemde} sure did...to the tune of $150.00
[09:15] {bruce} thought so
[09:15] {esemde} it works better now for sure
[09:15] {Threei} wait
[09:15] {bruce} yes - except now glitches with installed programs
[09:15] {Threei} so shortcut is there but it's not finding the program
[09:16] {Threei} then right click on shortcut, Properties
[09:16] {Threei} and edit target so it pints to that mirc.32.exe
[09:18] {esemde} OK done...we'll see what happens tomorrow
[09:18] {bruce} cna looks like possible reversal candidate this am dino
[09:20] {Threei} interesting read for later:
[09:20] {Threei} http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Global_Economy/JD30Dj02.html
[09:21] {Threei} and general comment for today's and tomorrow's trading:
[09:21] {Threei} this FOMC rate decision is somewhat different from couple previous ones
[09:21] {dino} ua might be a bit of overreaction
[09:21] {Threei} those were clear cut case,
[09:21] {Threei} everyone knew what to expect
[09:21] {Threei} and it was kind of in the cards
[09:22] {Threei} as we near the end of rate cuts, both Fed action and market view of it become less clear
[09:22] {Threei} that's why we see this swampy action
[09:23] {Threei} let's continue being on defensive, for these couple days and see what transpires after
[09:23] {Threei} being out of earnings season and done with Fed, it should become more clear
[09:27] {dino} watchiong gil, ua, enr

[10:10] {Threei} IMO, you are fine qwith this entry ese
[10:10] {dino} watching it
[10:10] {Threei} .50 is safe reliable place for a stop,
[10:11] {Threei} with right size damage will be minimal
[10:11] {esemde} come on....come on....if it breaks .75 it should get to 11.00
[10:11] {Threei} and if it takes .75, your potential is quite lucrative
[10:11] {Threei} risk/reward wise it's a well-managed and fairly valid trade
[10:12] {esemde} tks
[10:13] {esemde} have a good instructor
[10:14] {Threei} not working
[10:14] {esemde} damn....stopped
[10:14] {Threei} quite possibly a shakeout, but who cares
[10:15] {Threei} there are just two states to any trade
[10:15] {esemde} -.15
[10:15] {Threei} works or doesn't
[10:15] {esemde} still a good trade though
[10:15] {Threei} it is
[10:15] {Threei} or was
[10:16] {esemde} yep
[10:16] {esemde} followed NDX to a tee
[10:16] {esemde} NDX was bumping up against 1926...it could have gone either way
[10:17] {Threei} magoo, you shorted RIMM off 124?
[10:17] {esemde} appears to be a shakeout
[10:18] {magoo} ah no..bidu off 367
[10:18] {magoo} covered 365.90
[10:18] {Threei} oh, I get it
[10:19] {Threei} RIMM is not enough adrenalin-laden for you
[10:19] {Threei} so you switched to BIDU
[10:19] {magoo} kind of same setup
[10:19] {magoo} can only handle 1 at time
[10:19] {magoo} same seup
[10:19] {magoo} setup
[10:19] {Threei} I'll wait for you to start trading GOOG to officially qualify you as adrenalin addict {G}
[10:23] {Threei} RIMM worth a long try if holding above .40
[10:24] {Threei} if loses, let it be for now
[10:25] {Threei} market sharp downtick, RIMM handled it rather well

[12:44] {bruce} mon long candidate dino - tricky one
[12:44] {Threei} pullback, return to the high,
[12:44] {Threei} now break of intraday high is needed to launch rally
[12:45] {Threei} ARBA is trying
[12:45] {Threei} if you go for it, stop under .30
[12:47] {dino} sidetracked for bit

[10:46] {bruce} insu - traditional break of high setup here vad
[10:48] {Threei} works too, to my amazement
[10:48] {bruce} sheesh - teleported though - no chance to enter

[10:51] {esemde} moved my stop on CREE to .83
[10:52] {dino} let me look then
[10:52] {Threei} HIGHER OIL PRICES WEIGHING UPON RECENT USD BULLISH SENTIMENT - DEALERS- Oil firmer on supply disruptions disruptions from Nigerian pipeline attacks, UK strike impact and geo-political factors that US Security fired warning shot at Iranian Boats in the Gulf on April 24th.
[10:53] {Threei} - A vessel contracted by the Navy in the Persian Gulf fired warning shots Thursday on two Iranian fast boats, FOX News has learned. The Westward Venture, a ship contracted by the Navy to carry military cargo to Kuwait, fired upon the boats Thursday after attempts to get Iranian boats' attention failed.
[10:53] {dino} that'll get their attention
[10:53] {esemde} i'll say...
[10:54] {dino} insu good report
[10:56] {Threei} OIH volaitlity is incredible today
[10:59] {bruce} vad - ifyou call up pbt does level one show you high and low for day?
[10:59] {Threei} not for listeds
[11:00] {bruce} k
[11:00] {Threei} use daily chart
[11:00] {bruce} yes - just wondering if laser was working right
[11:00] {Threei} point curos at today's candle, press left button, read high/low

[11:02] {dino} stop lod
[11:05] {dino} rimm feels like wants wed. bottom
[11:05] {bruce} can't blame vad for cursing - has to put up with magoo
[11:06] {dino} you should hear me then
[11:09] {esemde} out CREE .95 +.03
[11:10] {esemde} price is turning down
[11:16] {bruce} languahge not suitable for this room dino
[11:16] {dino} :)
[11:19] {dino} fstr stopped -.37
[11:19] {Threei} is this iranian thing getting any attention anywhere else but Fox?
[11:19] {Threei} I don't see it on CNN
[11:20] {Threei} or any other wires than one referring to Fox
[11:20] {esemde} signing off for a few minutes....
[11:21] {Threei} you'd think ness sinking market like this should be front and center
[11:21] {Threei} ness = news
[11:21] {patience} was reported on BNN News, but citing Fox
[11:21] {Threei} yeah, all I see refers to the same original source
[11:23] {Threei} if report appears about it being an unconfirmed rumor... I'll buy everything
[11:24] {fernp} US Security fires warning shots at Iran boats in Gulf (Briefing.com)
[11:24] {Threei} ty fernp
[11:25] {Threei} unclear if they got it independently or are citing the same Fox
[11:25] {fernp} citing Dow Jones news
[11:25] {Threei} ahha
[11:25] {Threei} that's more solid
[11:25] {Threei} ty
[11:26] {fernp} :)
[11:26] {dino} cme l 481.39 sm wide
[11:26] {Threei} I really hope it doesn't escalate to full blown military conflict
[11:26] {dino} rimm l 119.25 sm
[11:26] {bruce} not likely vad - that stuff happens all the time
[11:26] {bruce} boys playing with their toys
[11:27] {bruce} gotta gun - gotta use it
[11:27] {dino} it won't we are too stretched
[11:27] {Threei} well... very bad timing for this game
[11:27] {bruce} they sink a ship - then it gets serious
[11:27] {dino} happened about 2 weeks ago too
[11:27] {Threei} we are stretched... oil is already priced above economy's ability to handle it... inflation is already beyond bearable...
[11:28] {Threei} IMO, this war, if heaven forbid it starts, won't cause market rally like previous one dids
[11:29] {dino} of course, we are already in position. just need to paved and drill iraq
[11:29] {dino} paving it would take care of that nasty sand issue
[11:29] {Threei} VNDA?
[11:33] {dino} magoo just stopped by, slacker is taking today off
[11:34] {Threei} say hello to him
[11:34] {bruce} isis looking longagain dino
[11:34] {Threei} probably good choice, not much readable and tradeable so far
[11:34] * Chaeron slaps magoo with a large trout
[11:34] {dino} no mas, isis no mas

[11:44] {dino} bad prints at 28
[11:51] {esemde} i'm back....missed the Chaeron slap eh.....would have been highlight of the day...... rats...
[11:51] {Threei} I am torn a bit... on one hand, slapping laserdave on his appearance is always joyful occasion... on another, afraid of making it too routinish
[11:51] {GeoArb} not a fun day at all
[11:52] {esemde} tough decision
[11:52] {GeoArb} i think i am going to watch a kungfoomovie on netflix.... (instant gratification)
[11:53] {dino} lol
[11:55] {Threei} what can I say Geo... I am glad I backed off after first stop, haven't seen anything readable since then
[11:55] {GeoArb} yeah same here
[11:55] {GeoArb} took the first stop
[11:55] {Threei} some days are calling for defensive stance
[11:55] {GeoArb} and then have had the iron discipline of a kung foo master
[11:56] {GeoArb} ahh friday lots of drinking and barbecuing
[11:56] {bruce} only the discipline? thought you were a kung fu master geo
[11:56] {GeoArb} nah..... the wrong asian

[11:59] {GeoArb} an inside range day for sure till now
[12:14] {bruce} wow - above zero outside again - would break out the shorts but snow expected again
[12:14] {Threei} oh boy...
[12:14] {Threei} HOUSE SPEAKER PELOSI: SEES A STRONG NEED FOR A SECOND FISCAL STIMULUS BILL, DISCUSSIONS WITH WHITE HOUSE HAVE BEGUN- House Republican leader Boener says talks are a step in the right direction.
[12:15] {bruce} sounds like desperation moves vad
[12:15] {Threei} this is beyond ridiculous
[12:15] {bruce} I think theyt should just send money to their friends to he north
[12:15] {bruce} then we can buy stuf and stimulate their economy for em
[12:15] {Threei} yup... at least we would cause more inflation on this side of the border, not on theirs
[12:15] {bruce} whatcould be fairer?
[12:17] {Threei} also, on per capita basis it would be much more effective
[12:17] {dino} can you tell it's an election year?
[12:17] {Threei} since our entire population is less than just Califirnia
[12:18] {Chaeron} that much?
[12:19] {bruce} l aet 43.36 - stop 8c

[13:20] {bruce} hk short candidate- prefer a small long retace before breaking below .72
[13:33] {Threei} if market proceeds to make new lows, it's going to be first real follow through in weeks
[13:35] {Threei} in l,ine with recent patterns, I'd rather expect 30 points rally now, lol
[13:52] {Threei} 5 points so far... 25 left
[13:53] {dino} same thinking here

[12:59] {Threei} what was that for
[12:59] {Threei} as if it wasn't enough that I am sooo removed from all the famous libraries
[13:00] {Raven}
3 who gives a rat's ass about the libraries ... your climate makes up for that

[13:10] {Threei} tough read here guys
[13:10] {Threei} staying on a sideline
[13:10] {Threei} market is pregnant with sharp move, and sirection is anyone's guess
[13:10] {Threei} direction too
[13:14] {dino} gibberish huh?
[13:15] {Threei} what did you call me?
[13:15] {dino} lol
[13:16] {Threei} slapped by raven, called names by dino AND living in area removed from all the sources of knowledge
[13:16] {Threei} my life goes down the drain...
[13:16] {GeoArb} who said presedential libraries were knowledge?
[13:16] {GeoArb} google
[13:16] {patience} guess all you can do is sit on the dock, with butter and garlic and fresh crab
[13:17] {Threei} google doesn't help much when you can't read
[13:17] {GeoArb} i just like the jelly bean portrait
[13:17] {Threei} books on the other hand provide protection from prying eyes if you place them (books) strategically, so they cover your closed eyes
[13:18] {Threei} the only thing you need to take of is not to keep them upside down
[13:18] {Threei} that could be a clue
[13:34] {Threei} feels like RIMM short will be a play soon
[13:34] {Threei} need more confidence that NQ is done rallying
[13:34] {Threei} so far, 50/50
[13:34] {magoo} aapl too
[13:37] {Threei} OK... can we have a bounce now please,
[13:37] {Threei} with RIMM staying under 124.20
[13:38] {Threei} but coming close enough to it for a stop to be narrow enough
[13:41] {Threei} in
[13:42] {Threei} .31 stop
[13:42] {Threei} didn't take long eh
[13:44] {Threei} second try

[13:47] {Threei} sheesh
[13:47] {Threei} sigh
[13:48] {Threei} back to sleep
[13:52] {dino} cap't cavm spike
[13:52] {Threei} US TREASURY SEC PAULSON: CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC ON GSE REFORM FOLLOWING MEETING WITH FNM, FRE AND LAWMAKERS
[13:55] {dino} shake 'n bake
[14:02] {Threei} US TREASURY SECRETARY PAULSON CITES PROGRESS IN CALMING FINANCIAL MARKETS, FOCUS INCREASINGLY ON STIMULATING ECONOMY
[14:02] {Threei} - Likes part of Rep Frank's FHA bill, no veto threat from President Bush, supports idea of having FHA back troubled loans after write-down.
[14:02] {Threei} - US economy has slowed considerably, faces headwinds from high oil prices. Cites progress in calming markets, says focus will be increasingly on stimulating the economy.
[14:02] {Threei} - Aiming to minimize spillover from market turmoil into the economy, but it can't be avoided entirely.
[14:02] {Threei} - Risk is being repriced, astute investors are putting captial to work in distressed markets.
[14:03] {Threei} - Financial markets, not govenrments, best set benchmark values for illiquid securities.
[14:03] {Threei} - Won't forecast when the turmoil might end, some markets still not operating normally.
[14:03] {Threei} my personal read is:
[14:04] {Threei} We seem to be succeeding in postponing the crisis and making our kids or grandkids face it
[14:04] {Threei} and, since it's going to be their problem, we care not
[14:05] {dino} isn't that the governmental way?
[14:05] {hawkfan4} {==and no kids, so that goes double for me ;})
[14:06] {dino} promise the world, don't worry about paying for it
[14:06] {Threei} reminds me a wise hero of some Far East parables who agreed to teach a donkey to speak, accepting hefty amount from shah; money was supposed to sustain him for 20 years which was the term for a donky to demonstrate speaking skills
[14:07] {dino} i have to laugh, the $600 rebates hilary and obama are taking credit for, but at the same time they are going to raise all taxes
[14:07] {Threei} when asked how he was going to keep the promise he said, "come on, in 20 years one of three will be dead - me, shah or donkey"
[14:08] {Threei} JPM
[14:08] {Threei} TO SUSPEND TAKING FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN APPLICATIONS
[14:08] {Threei} why?
[14:08] {dino} so, we give the average guy $600 next month, but next year he pays $4k more in taxes
[14:09] {Threei} isn't credit crunch defeated?
[14:09] {Threei} or JPM made not enough on BSC deal?
[14:09] {dino} wants another deal perhaps
[14:10] {dino} needs funds for it
