Decent day overall, even though most of financials haven't performed for big part of the day. Some scalps on usual suspects (FAS, BAC etc) plus decent plays on RIMM and FAZ kept the day profitable.

[08:31] {Threei} - New Orders: -44.8 v -30.51 prior (record low)
[08:32] {Threei} - Employment: -38.20 v -39.08 prio
[08:50] {Threei} GE consolidation range is 9.85 - .95 so far
[08:50] {Threei} with .98 being Fri high and 10 natural resistance to break
[08:51] {Threei} if we get rally continuation, this is candidate for the move similar to one we got on Fri morning
[08:53] {magoo} morning
[08:53] {Threei} magoo :)
[08:54] {ese} MMMMAAAAAGGGGGSSSSSSS zzzaaaaaahhhhhh....how are ya?
[08:57] {pita} gm everyone
[08:58] {ese} pita...
[09:00] {Threei} pita :)
[09:06] {Threei} let's start outlining plan for GE
[09:06] {Threei} from today's premarket action, 9.85 is support
[09:07] {Threei} 9.95 is resistance, with 10 to break as a signal for continuation
[09:07] {ese} was laughing my brains out on the weekend reading the Darwin Awards. Story titled "once again golfers prove that testosterone and beer don't mix" one fellow in the foursome was so loaded that he climbed up on the ball washer and stuck his testicles in it to wash them off......well he promptly fell and tore them right off becoming one of the few Darwin winners to be awarded the top darwin for his category because he was still alive. couldn't
[09:07] {Threei} so, if you want aggresive entry, that would be about here with .84 stop
[09:08] {pita} Here, as in pre-mkt?
[09:09] {Threei} if you like the idea of aggresive entry, with very tight stop, yes
[09:10] {Threei} yesetrday's close is .61
[09:10] {Threei} if market is not holding its gap and GE loses .85, that will be next area to watch
[09:11] {Threei} regular entry would be let it trade for now, then buy 10 break with stop located under the low formed before the break
[09:12] {Threei} for FAS, .50 is Fri resistance
[09:12] {Threei} broke it earlier, retreated, held .40
[09:13] {vinod} good Morning to all

[13:19] {nemo} geez. GE Vad...break of .30? then again still lunch time
[13:19] {nemo} oops
[13:21] {Threei} yeah, I'd prefer to hunt for pullbacks
[13:21] {Threei} at least you get more than 3-5 cents move, and the stop is tighter
[13:22] {nemo} To think or not to think????
[13:22] {Threei} resounding no
[13:22] {nemo} Yeah, except for what, RIMM, it's basically been scalping
[13:22] {nemo} hurts
[13:22] {Threei} well, last two plays on GE and FAS offered more than a scalp
[13:23] {Threei} but mostly thanks to exactly that kind of entry
[13:23] {Threei} pullbacks, tight stops
[13:23] {Threei} ECB'S TRICHET: ECB IS IN CLOSE CONTACT WITH OTHER INSTITUTIONS
[13:23] {nemo} yeah...tight stop plays
[13:23] {Threei} I hope they don't mean mental ones
[13:24] {nemo} maybe they're swapping spit
[13:24] {nemo} sorry...that even viscerally disgusted me
[13:26] {Threei} ECB'S TRICHET: EURO IS 'IRREPLACEABLE', IMPORTANT DURING DIFFICULT TIMES
[13:26] {Threei} why do I find it hard to believe

[14:57] {Threei} market is not reversing so far
[14:57] {vinod} sto is at 5.44
[14:57] {vinod} i just came in-nemo no jump
[14:59] {magoo} mkts clubbed
[14:59] {magoo} gs lows
[14:59] {vinod} wow!!!!!!!! what happen
[14:59] {nemo} FAS bouncing off morning support
[15:00] {magoo} vinod..it was breaking down
[15:00] {magoo} do not buy vads stops imo
[15:00] {Threei} WSJ: US TREASURY TO UTILIZE ITS $30B INFUSION TO FORCE REPAYMENT OF BONUSES
[15:02] {magoo} financials getting CLUBBED
[15:03] {dino} like a baby seal
[15:03] {nemo} if FAS doesn't hold this bottom, closes gap to Friday?
[15:04] {vinod} nemo you should have told me to buy faz at 35
[15:04] {nemo} I'll make a mental note to tell you next time it's a buy
[15:04] {nemo} Sorry
[15:04] {magoo} [15:04] {vinod} nemo you should have told me to buy faz at 35
[15:04] {magoo} REALLY
[15:04] {nemo} Then again...Vad told me not to think...it's his fault
[15:05] {nemo} FAS to Friday
[15:13] {magoo} any bounce candidates lord vader?
[15:14] {i2romantis} lol
[15:15] {dino} apol stopped b/e
[15:15] {Threei} yeah... FAZ is bounce candidadte {G}
[15:17] {nemo} well....let's go for the double bottom on FAS again!
[15:17] {Threei} nope
[15:17] {nemo} gonna' close that gap...huh Dino?
[15:17] {Threei} this is cascading selloff, lower lows
[15:21] {nemo} The circle is complete...FAS
[15:23] {Threei} very nice panic
[15:23] {Threei} let's let it settle down
[15:24] {Threei} gotta wait out extreme fear
[15:24] {nemo} something paradoxical about the term "very nice panic"
[15:24] {Threei} well... from a trader's point of view :)
[15:25] {Threei} we don't want them all just to go and go
[15:25] {Threei} gotta get some new entries
[15:25] {Threei} and this selloff takes us there
[15:25] {nemo} Yeah, FAS was getting much too expensive
[15:29] {dino} chatter the govt soon will no let shares govt owns in banks/financials to be shorted
[15:29] {nemo} yeah, supposedly that's what's been behind the jumps today
[15:29] {Threei} well, what was behind the drop then?
[15:30] {nemo} I was just throwing it out there for conversation
[15:30] {Threei} I just love those explanations
[15:30] {nemo} It's a headline
[15:30] {Threei} company announces bad earning and stock drops - they say "because of"
[15:31] {Threei} company announces bad earning and stock goes up - they say "in spite of"
[15:31] {nemo} Oil prices rise on stocks, dollar
[15:31] {Threei} bunch of entertainers
[15:31] {nemo} Everything is fiction
[15:32] {Threei} if they gave it a 5 second's pause and thought, they would notice that there was no contra-announcement, yet financials reversed
[15:33] {Threei} proving beyond reasonable doubt that original explanation for the rise was false
[15:33] {nemo} Of course, since the "news" made it all go up, maybe because it was just "news" people decided to sell...eh
[15:34] {nemo} spaghetti method of discernment...trhow against wall, see what sticks
[15:34] {nemo} throw
[15:35] {dino} sm l uthr .70
[15:36] {Threei} FAZ
[15:36] {Threei} 40 break long small sharea
[15:36] {Threei} stop under .70
[15:37] {Threei} 1:1 half out or scalp
[15:37] {Threei} 1:2
[15:38] {Threei} out in full +.70
[15:38] {Threei} lol, too soon
[15:38] {Threei} anyone??
[15:38] {dawg} got part of it thanks Vad
[15:38] {Threei} full dollar from trigger
[15:38] {Threei} dawg :)
[15:38] {vinod} yes.i have them at 40.02
[15:39] {Threei} 1 minute play
[15:39] {vinod} 0ut 40.10
[15:39] {Threei} don't oversit vinod, end of today is very volatile
[15:39] {Threei} good job
[15:39] {Threei} wtg!
[15:39] {Threei} wait... 40.10?
[15:39] {Threei} or 41.10?
[15:39] {vinod} 41.10
[15:39] {Threei} whew
[15:39] {Threei} scared me :)
[15:40] {Threei} FAZ really worth playing for more than 8 cents, lol
[15:40] {vinod} too fast to type
[15:41] {Threei} no kidding
[15:41] {Threei} this adrenalin-charged stock
[15:41] {Threei} notice guys, no double bottom worked in FAS drop
[15:41] {Threei} this is your typical cascaduing selloff
[15:41] {Threei} not really good idea to be bottom-fishing in that
[15:43] {dino} cpla sm l .75
[15:44] {Threei} interestingly, while FAS is red, BAC and even dog with flease known as C are solidly green
[15:44] {nemo} they've definitely given up some territory thought
[15:45] {nemo} though
[15:49] {Threei} too bad day is over
[15:50] {Threei} we are at the point very likely tyo produce reversal
[15:50] {Threei} if not 10 min till the end of trading session I would go for trend reversal here
[15:51] {dino} out cpla .30, +.55
[15:55] {vinod} see you tomorrow

[15:55] {Threei} how about:
[15:55] {Threei} it was idiotic on our part not to have any provisions to bailout money in a first place
[15:56] {Threei} now that we provided money with no strings attached, we are so enraged that they take money with no strings attached
[15:57] {Threei} mags, you here?
[15:58] {nemo} low volume on the Nas
