Jan 13, 2009

Day started out nice, with a few good trades, notably ADBE short. Then things turned into repetition of yesterday so we cut down on activity. Took couple stops, took couple scalps - all in all, we could finish the day after first morning trades just as well.

Session Time: Tue Jan 13 00:00:00 2009

[07:59] {nemo} Hah!  they must have had a gun to their heads

[08:00] {magoo} i tried to get the mIRC up and running...i have an icon on screen but window pops up "about mIRC" evualation copy:30 days and a register /continue button

[08:01] {Threei}  right, click continue
[08:01] {magoo} than window says unable to connect
[08:01] {magoo} i know i am computer illiterate, but i almost made it sigh

[08:04] {magoo} in all serious vad..i ap[oligize
[08:04] {magoo} but boy i want to get this figured out
[08:04] {magoo} i did
[08:05] {Threei}  I did it a bit differently since my mirc already had some configurations, so I had to change them rather than do anew
[08:06] {magoo} i could start anew and ask where i am confused
[08:06] {magoo} but i thik its here..see there isnt even this pop up in instruction.."mIRC FAvorites
[08:07] {magoo} anyone else get that window?

[08:09] {magoo} ill try again
[08:11] {Threei}  FED CHAIRMAN BERNANKE: FISCAL STIMULUS ALONE WILL NOT DRIVE A LASTING ECONOMIC RECOVERY, BUT STIMULUS COULD PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT BOOST TO ECONOMY
[08:11] {Threei}  - Other policy measures are needed to stimulate the economic recovery.
[08:11] {Threei}  - More government bank captial injections may be needed. Fed could purchase longer-term securities.
[08:11] {Threei}  - Asset-backed lending program will boost private lending. Program is scheduled to begin in February, 2009
[08:11] {Threei}  - It is not easy to set a target for Fed policy under these conditions, policy issues poses a communications challenge
[08:11] {Threei}  communications challenge eh?
[08:12] {Threei}  - Fed's policy approach differs from that taken by Japan in 2001-06
[08:12] {Threei}  - Must significantly shrink the Fed balance sheet quickly and automatically, shrinking the balance sheet won't be hard.
[08:12] {Threei}  - Fed credit facilities do not expose the Fed to very much risk. Will end credit facilities based on analysis of market conditions.
[08:12] {Threei}  - Inflation will likely moderate even more, sees little risk from inflation in near term.
[08:12] {Threei}  shrinking the balance sheet won't be hard - this I beloieve requires some additional explanations
[08:13] {nemo} yeah, merely a flesh wound
[08:17] {Threei}  BALTIC DRY BULK INDEX RISES +2.5%, SIXTH STRAIGHT INCREASE

[09:21] {elepet} and for some reason, i can't keep this window and my broker open at the same time.  It was so much easier as a trial member.  
[09:22] {Threei}  install fresh mirc and configure it according to websiote isntructions... it will work
[09:22] {KSystems} elepet: in order to use mirc, you'll have to follow the pdf doc on the RT website

[09:32] {Threei}  DRYS
[09:33] {Threei}  pullback to about 14.70 is of interest
[09:35] {larisa} PLD dollar bounce off bottom, missed it
[09:37] {Threei}  RIMM, watching for pullback entry around 46.40
[09:42] {Threei} Long Setup:  PLD  12 break
[09:42] {Threei}  if stays above 11.85

[09:46] {Threei}  good reflexes guy, break was fast
[09:46] {Threei}  but gave ample chance for entry as it danced back and forth around 12 after break
[09:47] {Threei}  so if you had an order 12.03, it would get hit in any case
[09:47] {KSystems} PLD - out 1/2 .15 - out 1/4 .35 - out rest .27
[09:47] {Threei}  RIMM got away
[09:48] {Threei}  pullback was a bit shallow

[09:48] {magoo} drys too
[09:49] {magoo} Q too
[09:49] {magoo} heck they all went
[09:49] {Threei}  DRYS was for personal consumption so to speak
[09:49] {Threei}  meaning, if you got a feel for momo on it, it was p;ossible to play, but no way to call it
[09:50] {Threei}  time for pullback, market

[10:07] {KSystems} omg
[10:07] {Threei}  you guys...
[10:08] {Threei}  risky one:
[10:08] {Threei} Long Setup:  EGLE  7.20 break
[10:08] {Threei}  volatile, can shake hard
[10:09] {KSystems} stop where?
[10:09] {Threei}  if dives sharply into 7, grab it for immediate snapback
[10:09] {Threei}  under 7 KS, but easy to get shaken
[10:09] {KSystems} yea
[10:09] {KSystems} ty
[10:10] {KSystems} in .23
[10:10] {_cujo} .22
[10:11] {dptl} did you get nvda?
[10:11] {Threei}  no
[10:11] {geo} target  vad?
[10:12] {Threei}  just play it by the book
[10:12] {_cujo} out .26
[10:12] {geo} wow cujo
[10:13] {Threei}  DRYS is kind of leading indicator for EGLE
[10:14] {fernp} EXPE long if break 8.95, Vad?
[10:14] {Threei}  a bit narrow
[10:15] {Threei}  but if market regains strength, likely to follow
[10:15] {fernp} ok
[10:16] {Threei}  half out EGLE guys
[10:16] {Threei}  a little bit under 1:1 but DRYS is pulling back
[10:16] {Threei}  want to protect profit on too volatile stock
[10:17] {Threei}  and decrease risk
[10:17] {Threei}  stop to .15
[10:17] {dino}  apol
[10:17] {wishbone} egle .10 ty vad
[10:18] {Threei}  ADBE stop for balance to just above .60
[10:19] {Threei}  should have covered near .40... missed it
[10:20] {Threei}  out ADBE in full
[10:20] {Threei}  .40, +.37
[10:20] {magoo} where u like DRYS vad?
[10:20] {Onix} wtg :D
[10:21] {Threei}  not sure mags
[10:21] {magoo} it left some scars from yesterday..understood
[10:21] {Threei}  market pulls back, ad DRYS tends to do exaggerated moves
[10:22] {Threei}  so, I'd say bounce off 15
[10:22] {Threei}  but at the moment it seems ridiculously far from here
[10:22] {Threei}  so I better not say anything for now :)
[10:23] {_cujo} PLD Vad?
[10:23] {_cujo} would you short here?
[10:23] {Threei}  PLD 11.50 zone for watch
[10:24] {magoo} market needs to decide here..up or down
[10:24] {_cujo} thanks
[10:24] {Threei}  short is kind of 50/50
[10:24] {geo} out elge
[10:24] {geo} EGLE
[10:25] {Threei}  covered ADBE a bit too soon
[10:26] {magoo} man..15 not out of questuon now
[10:26] {Threei}  here comes hard drop DRYS
[10:27] {Threei}  yeah, 15 doesn't look that ridiculous anymore, does it? :)
[10:27] {Threei}  don't jump oln these little bounces
[10:27] {Threei}  not worth the risk
[10:28] {magoo} i think EGLE leads
[10:29] {Threei}  SENATE MAJORITY LEADER REID: SENATE MUST VOTE ON TARP BY SUNDAY
[10:34] {Threei}  sharp drop is coming on DRYS it feels
[10:35] {Threei}  how about that for sharp drop
[10:35] {KSystems} and here comes 15
[10:37] {Threei}  and most likely under
[10:38] {Threei}  the way DRYS usually does it is, it comes into obvious support, makes a little bounce, not very profitable but tempting,
[10:38] {Threei}  than dives sharply under support, shaking out premature buyers... and jumps right back up
[10:41] {Threei}  what's with FRPT?

[11:48] {Threei}  just when it consolidated for a break
[11:54] {Threei}  watch DRYS here
[11:55] {Threei}  if not losing .50 and market jumps back up, should be good for a scalp
[11:57] {Threei}  Chaeron... your FRPT is real hero today
[11:59] {dptl} in drys .54
[11:59] {Threei}  .60 break should provide spike for exit

[12:13] {magoo} frustrating mkt..u gota hit the first 15 mins and last
[12:15] {geo} BNI
[12:15] {dino} frustration incorporated
[12:18] {Threei}  we are approaching another uncertan period with all the fighting about stimulus package and TARP after inauguration
[12:18] {Threei}  not unlike we had in Sept-Oct
[12:19] {dino} and ironically, it will be tossed around for week or so and ultimately approved, but...damage everything in the way in the process
[12:19] {Threei}  true
[12:19] {Threei}  just like back then
[12:20] {nemo} that will probably move trading to the long short etfs
[12:20] {Threei}  this relentless selling pressure yestyerday was total remiscenses of those days
[12:21] {Threei}  wehandled it well back then by being careful and picky... will do the same this time around
[12:21] {Threei}  then bull wave will come
[12:21] {Onix} hope springs eternal :)
[12:22] {Threei}  wanna bet?
[12:22] {dino} imo, range bound for many more months 8300-9000
[12:22] {dino} time will tell
[12:22] {larisa} i say we will have rally starting late today into inauguration day. hen another rally for stimulus and another rally for obama's new puppy. ( lets try to be positive !)
[12:23] {Threei}  hmmm

[12:27] {hawkfan4} lol, no kidding

[12:28] {dino} it's a hologram
[12:28] {Threei}  AMZN
[12:28] {Threei}  MOODY'S PLACES RATINGS ON REVIEW FOR POSSIBLE UPGRADE
[12:28] {Threei}  - The review for possible upgrade is prompted by Amazon's announcement that it had achieved its best holiday sales performance ever.
[12:29] {Threei}  Amazon's ability to achieve sizable sales growth with a reasonable level of profitability during a very challenging retail climate is strong evidence of the stability and success of Amazon''s business model.
[12:31] {Threei}  don't trade it, let's just see whether my feel for the market is right... feels to me like sharp spike is coming
[12:34] {Threei}  meanwhile, I feel deeply confused... e-mail from a russian girl looking for a man, name in address is evangelina... e-mails starts with:
[12:34] {Threei}  Hello. My name is Olga
[12:34] {Threei}  and ends with:
[12:34] {Threei}  Tired from loneliness Evgenija
[12:34] {Threei}  ummm

[12:36] {nemo} all three?

[12:36] {dino} bi-polar gal
[12:36] {KSystems} her sisters are coming as well, vad
[12:36] {geo} lol
[12:36] {Threei}  ah

[12:37] {geo} i like my bank JPM
[12:38] {geo} back in black
[12:38] {Threei}  what did you do geo?
[12:38] {geo} bought pullback in JPM watching GS
[12:38] {geo} the scans uses option vol as filter
[12:39] {Threei}  look at GS volume
[12:39] {geo} ?
[12:39] {Threei}  half day, volume is equal yesterday's already
[12:40] {geo} yup
[12:40] {geo} i am trying to reduce breaking candidates by option vol
[12:40] {geo} just experimenting
[12:40] {geo} apol gap filling
[12:41] {geo} was there news?
[12:41] {geo} not in it
[12:42] {Threei}  lol... spike was dismall and not very very sharp
[12:42] {geo} no mojo
[12:42] {hawkfan4} 13-Jan-09 10:11 ET In Play Apollo Group drops over 2.50 in past few minutes; weakness attributed to Citron Research report saying growth is more of a one-time bump than a sustainable trend and discussing lawsuit disclosure (84.02 -2.50) -Update :

[12:43] {Threei}  after strong morning we are back to yesterday's pattern of seling pressure
[12:43] {geo} yes yes
[12:44] {geo} I hav some puts that ned to go in money
[12:44] {Threei}  waiting it out, don't want to accumulate unnecessary stops
[12:44] {i2romantis} looks like a bull flag on DRYS, wavy, slow winds, some precipitation
[12:45] {dino} record low temps, and snow here
[12:45] {Threei}  yes i2r, it's just it's unlikely to do much without market help
[12:46] {patience} mild again here dino, songbirds are back
[12:48] {dino} apol gap around 77.40
[12:48] {dino} nice patience
[12:49] {patience} i don't do winter well dino, although snow motivates me to trade  :)
[12:52] {Threei}  YHOO
[12:52] {Threei}  WSJ: CAROL BARTZ TO BE NAMED CEO -
[12:53] {Threei}  YHOO likes him
[12:53] {KSystems} him?
[12:53] {larisa} lol
[12:53] {Threei}  her?
[12:53] {geo} my god
[12:55] {Threei}  scalpable on pullbacks
[12:55] {Threei}  - Carol Bartz is current ADSK Chairman and former CEO of ADSK
[12:55] {Threei}  - Note: This appointment has been speculated by a variety of sources including the WSJ over the last week{
[12:56] {Threei}  wow
[12:56] {Threei}  no more pullbacks?
[12:56] {Threei}  one to .30 I grabbed
[12:56] {Threei}  sold .46
[12:57] {Threei}  back in
[12:57] {Threei}  .44
[12:58] {geo} confused
[12:58] {KSystems} wheres your stop here?
[12:58] {Threei}  scalping stop, under .40
[12:58] {Threei}  not giving it much breathing room
[12:59] {Threei}  market is too weak
[12:59] {Threei}  out
[12:59] {KSystems} stopped
[13:00] {geo} in .39
[13:01] {geo} out not sure... .44
[13:01] {Threei}  yeah, shortlived news effect
[13:01] {Threei}  fizzles out wquickly
[13:03] {Threei}  all the way back
[13:05] {Threei}  I guess company fundamentals changed over last 15 minutes greatly to the upside and then to downside
[13:06] {larisa} DRYS wants 15 ?
[13:06] {i2romantis} looks good so far :)
[13:06] {Threei}  almost there
[13:08] {Threei}  PLD is holding fairly well
[13:16] {Threei}  not aymore
[13:20] {Threei}  ADBE is not selling with market, consolidates under .20
[13:20] {Threei}  if stays here, becomes a long candidate on .20 break if market shows strength
[13:20] {Threei}  which is a biiiig if
[13:22] {Threei}  with loss of .10, not terribly interested anymore
[13:23] {Threei}  selling accelerates
[13:23] {KSystems} this day is "zh" again
[13:23] {Threei}  DRYS 15
[13:29] {i2romantis} PALM looks interesting, i think
[13:30] {Threei}  pretty much market dependent i2r
[13:31] {Threei}  it has lost its own mojo as it usually happens with news-impacted stocks
[13:31] {Threei}  they become market followers when news effect wears off
[13:31] {KSystems} welcome, lexo
[13:31] {Threei}  look at its chart today
[13:31] {Threei}  pretty uch market miror
[13:31] {Threei}  hi lexonet, welcome
[13:32] {_lexonet05} hi there
[13:34] {Threei}  big offer at 15 DRYS
[13:34] {Threei}  break is scalp trigger
[13:34] {Threei}  if holding above .90
[13:35] {Threei}  chewing
[13:35] {magoo} in
[13:36] {Threei}  keep stop under .90 if for scalp, under .85 if want to try for more
[13:36] {Threei}  we formed double bottom
[13:37] {Threei}  just confirmed by break of the top between lows
[13:37] {Threei}  BBs shaped up right too
[13:37] {Threei}  main concewrn is general market mood that hasn't seen any silver lining in hours
[13:38] {Threei}  since first 30 minutes after opening actually
[13:39] {Threei}  hit 1:1 for a jiffy... really hard to tell whether it has a chance for bigger recovery
[13:40] {Threei}  chomping through that offer, you'd think it must have more enthusiasm than this eh?
[13:40] {peterg} software issue: has anyone been able to enable MIRC? I think the instructions on the RT website do not compute.
06[13:41] * geo is insulted
[13:41] {peterg} could be a start

[14:16] {Threei}  serious bidder at .88
[14:17] {Threei}  real too
[14:18] {Threei}  DRYS nice pullback

[14:25] {_jamie} so Vad, a good trade these days last how long?  a minute and half?
[14:25] {Threei}  lol
[14:25] {Threei}  I measure them in cents rather than in minutes
[14:26] {_jamie} right on
[14:26] {_jamie} that was a nasty little selloff
[14:26] {Threei}  I mean, trying to remember last time when saleperson suggested that I pay in time units instead of dollars, I have hard time recalling any
[14:26] {_jamie} haha
[14:26] {Threei}  so what do I care how long it takes :)
[14:27] {Threei}  {Market, melancholically} what's life? what's happiness? are there any?...
[14:27] {_jamie} sure there are
[14:28] {Threei}  tell that to market
[14:28] {Threei}  'cause it certainly doesn't think so
[14:28] {_jamie} market is just people, no?
[14:28] {Threei}  market is this big fire-breathing dragon we are out to slay
[14:28] {Threei}  and right now it has bellyache
[14:29] {_jamie} lemme strap on my suit or armor
[14:29] {_jamie} market is a pissed off dragon
[14:29] {Threei}  you better, because when it has heartburn...
[14:29] {geo} how low can BNI go?
[14:30] {Threei}  not much... just 65 bucks more
[14:31] {Threei}  so, if today is repetition of yesterday to any degree, DRYS should sell down a buck more, than rally back here into close

[14:43] {Threei}  major rule is:
[14:44] {Threei}  do not react on each market tick,
[14:44] {Threei}  what you want is sharp spike of a decent size
[14:44] {Threei}  that 11:41 candle is what you are looking for
[14:45] {nemo} which index vad?
[14:46] {Threei}  anything tracking NASDAQ

[14:46] {Threei}  10 cents on exactly this kind of delay just now
[14:46] {Threei}  .33 - .43
[14:46] {Threei}  this is pure scalping footwork

[15:12] {Threei}  the only difference is, DRYS never dropped to 14

[15:13] {Threei}  I think it's a borker's fault

[16:02] {geo} thanks 
[16:02] * Threei slaps geo around a bit with a large reminder to stop with pesimism, and things will work out much better
[16:02] {geo} lol
[16:02] {Threei}  question
[16:02] {geo} sorry
[16:02] {geo} ?
[16:02] {Threei}  have you ever in your life
[16:03] {geo} didnt know being gratefull was pessimism
[16:03] {Threei}  seen a person who said "it's too hard, I can't do it, I am useless" etc, along these lines
[16:03] {Threei}  AND succeeded?
[16:04] * geo mutters he was happy to be green and now has to ponder meaning of life
[16:04] {Threei}  lol
[16:04] {Threei}  no, I am mostly addressing earlier remarks
[16:04] {geo} from me?
[16:05] {dino} if you think you can, or can't, you are right
[16:05] {Threei}  (whispering) do I care who was it who uttered them?
[16:05] {Threei}  eqzaktly dino
[16:05] {geo} They saw with time even a rope drawing water from a well leaves marks on stone walls
[16:05] {geo} say
[16:05] {Threei}  can't tell you how often I heard:
[16:05] {geo} hows that for a saying !
[16:05] {Threei}  no matter what I do, it doesn't work
[16:06] {Threei}  or
[16:06] {Threei}  any trade I take is sure to turn against me
[16:06] {Threei}  or
[16:06] {Threei}  it's like market just waits for me to enter, and turns around right away
[16:06] {Threei}  etc,. you know the kind
[16:06] {geo} lololol
[16:06] {i2romantis} lol
[16:06] {geo} its that guy I was talking about
[16:06] {i2romantis} I've said that before 
[16:06] {Threei}  what I never ever saw is
[16:06] {geo} he just said that yesterday
[16:07] {Threei}  someone succeeding while thinking along these lines
[16:07] {Threei}  I am not saying positive thinking magically turns things around by itself, far from it
[16:07] {Threei}  but it's a foundation
[16:07] {Threei}  without it you have nothing to build on
[16:08] {geo} i dont know too many neagative sucessfull people
[16:08] {Threei}  and one more thought to leave you with for the night
[16:08] {geo} actually none
[16:08] {Threei}  it's actually going to be a quote from my next book, consider it sneak preview
[16:08] {dino} uh oh
[16:08] {i2romantis} next book? sounds good !
[16:09] {Threei}  even fear, one of the most impedimental eemotions,
[16:09] {Threei}  has some useful applications.
[16:09] {geo} true
[16:09] {i2romantis} true that.
[16:10] {Threei}  But self-doubt is the most wasteful and useless state of mind, accompl.ishing nothing but total and absolute waste of time and energy.
[16:10] {geo} true....
