Just waiting for the summer to end.
Session Time: Fri Aug 21 00:00:00 2009
[08:49] {nemo} well the rally continues
[08:53] {Threei} why wouldn't it
[08:54] {nemo} I wasn't looking for a reason
[08:54] {Threei} broad call for reversal was too, ummm, broad
[08:54] {nemo} yeah
[08:54] {nemo} By the way...a preemptive "You're home already, Vad"
[08:56] {Threei} sigh
[08:58] {cosmo} BRCD
[08:58] {nemo} aig
[09:00] {cosmo} * Fiscal Q3 revenue $493.3 mln, lower than estimate and Q2
[09:00] {cosmo} * EPS excluding items $0.12 vs Street view $0.11
[09:00] {cosmo} * Shares fall 5.6 pct after-hours
[09:00] {cosmo} * CEO says predicting recovery "like grabbing water"
[09:01] {cosmo} what goes down, must float up
[09:01] {cosmo} sorta
[09:04] {Threei} hmmm
[09:04] {Threei} dunno cosmo
[09:04] {Threei} I just tested your theory
[09:04] {magoo} morn
[09:04] {cosmo} what gets pushed down, must float back up?
06[09:04] * nemo slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[09:05] {Threei} aside of hitting my toe, iron didn't do any good after falling down,
[09:05] {Threei} certainly no slightest attempt to float up
[09:05] {Threei} magoo :)
[09:05] {magoo} so vad..what was verdic on getco rte?
[09:05] {cosmo} use an empty, sealed vessel....
[09:06] {Threei} great if there are shares at the price you want,
[09:06] {Threei} instant fill or kill, speed is next to lightening,
[09:06] {Threei} saves a bunch on pass-through,
[09:07] {nemo} no secondary routing though
[09:07] {Threei} since you'd have to try another route if there are no shares on GETCO, and at the time being there is no routing out on it,
[09:07] {Threei} best way to use it is:
[09:07] {Threei} set hot key for it and for the second route,
[09:08] {Threei} so you can hot both of them in a quick succession if GETCO doesn't get you shares,
[09:08] {Threei} probably forget it if there is a very fast stock you want
[09:09] {Threei} not because it's slow but because you'll lose some time on an attempt
[09:10] {Threei} We will be able to use it to its full advantage when Bear delivers smart route that goes to GETCO first,
[09:10] {Threei} then switches to other routes
[09:12] {magoo} ok
[09:12] {Threei} in case you want to try, I set keys:
[09:12] {Threei} Shift+G to buy on GETCO,
[09:13] {Threei} Shift + B market buy smart route,
[09:13] {Threei} Ctrl+G to sell on GETCO,
[09:13] {Threei} Ctrl+S market sell smart
[09:14] {magoo} what u watching?
[09:14] {magoo} rtk may be a play
[09:14] {Threei} can add anything you want to bid, offer, use other routes etc, as long as you can remember them, but the general idea is:
[09:14] {magoo} CRM too
[09:14] {Threei} all buys start with shift, all sells start with Ctrl
[09:17] {Threei} Fed's Bullard: Antendees of the Jackson Hole symposium are "cautiously optimistic" - TV interiew
[09:17] {Threei} - States that the economy is on track to see positive growth in 3rd and 4th quarters
[09:17] {Threei} - Households continue to be very cautious on spending
[09:18] {Threei} I don't see news RTK

[09:31] {magoo} no
[09:32] {Threei} Long Setup: BAC .40 break
[09:32] {Threei} if holding above .35
[09:33] {magoo} afterhrs AIG got low as 31.40
[09:36] {bluejet} Vad, is BAC long setup still valid?
[09:36] {Threei} no, but may reestablish itself if consolidates in this range
[09:38] {magoo} AIG hammer
[09:38] {nemo} aig support a .25...maybe
[09:38] {magoo} vad bouncer?
[09:38] {Threei} shrug
[09:39] {Threei} BAC is reestablished, but needs market help
[09:41] {nemo} aig, can you say "volatility"
[09:41] {dino} showing gaps 9438,1628,1018
[09:43] {Threei} Preview: Fed Chairman Bernanke scheduled to speak at the Kansas City Fed's annual symposium at Jackson Hole at 10amET
[09:43] {Threei} **the speech topic is "Reflections on a Year of Crisis." A prepared text is expected but there will be no Q&A.
[09:48] {dino} sm s scsc .80, bstop .11
[09:49] {Threei} AIG... impossible to call, but feels like explosion is coming
[09:49] {_phreeboy} s & p at top of consolidation range between 7/31-8/14, do you take that into account?
[09:49] {nemo} ex, or im
[09:50] {Threei} I can't take that into account until it does something: breaks that level or gets rejected
[09:51] {Threei} simply being there is not much indicative by itself
[09:51] {Threei} it's what it does aroiund the resistance that matters
[09:53] {fernp} HIG pullback, Vad?
[09:54] {Threei} market is still selling
[09:54] {fernp} ty
[09:54] {nemo} bac holding .33 support
[09:56] {nemo} when's the jet setter, ese, get back?
[09:57] {wulff} LVS in .10
[09:57] {Threei} HIG should dive closer to .50 now,
[09:57] {nemo} frickin bac
[09:58] {Threei} see if market puts double bottom is, and try to get HIG as close to .50 as possible
[09:59] {Threei} got away
[10:00] {Threei} *JULY EXISTING HOME SALES: 5.24M V 5.00ME (+7.2% M/M)

[10:08] {Threei} need some pullbacks to start outlining setups...
[10:09] {magoo} yea
[10:09] {Threei} this sudden spike out of slow selling is not something playable
[10:09] {nemo} housing report
[10:10] {magoo} c rocket vad
[10:10] {Threei} they all are
[10:11] {Threei} which one are you willing to chase?

[10:13] {Threei} need RIMMunder .60 to get interested
[10:13] {magoo} ok..i been off on it basd
[10:14] {Threei} .80 break is possible on it with stop under .60, but more of a crapshoot
[10:15] {Threei} WFC
[10:15] {Threei} Long Setup: WFC .90 break
[10:15] {Threei} if holding above .85 for hardcore sxcalpers

[10:17] {nemo} this is going to be a 200 point day
[10:17] {fernp} ty half out
[10:17] {nemo} the euphoria is nuts
[10:17] {Threei} GETCO worked like charm for C entry
[10:17] {Threei} WFC 1:1 for scalpers
[10:18] {bluejet} I pared BAC but missed WFC. Is it possible to play a sound when there is an alert?
[10:19] {Threei} yes
[10:19] {bluejet} how do I set it up?
[10:19] {Threei} who did that recently guys, could you help out?
[10:20] {Threei} oh wait, you are using mibbit
[10:20] {bluejet} yes
[10:20] {Threei} I sdon't think it's doable on it, gotta use mirc
[10:20] {bluejet} OK. I will take a look. Do I still use the same login on mirc?
[10:21] {nemo} mirc is stand alone software you have to set up
[10:21] {Threei} sure, login info is server-based... server doesn't care how you connect
[10:21] {Threei} it sees you, it kicks you out
[10:22] {Threei} well... unless you know magic words, lol

[15:44] {Threei} - Hoyer still favors the public option, and Speaker Pelosi reiterated yesterday that the bill would not pass without a public option. But today Hoyer says first and foremost the bill must pass: "We believe the public option is a necessary, useful and very important aspect of this, but well have to see because there are many other important aspects of the bill as well."
