[11:45] {Threei} European Aeronautic Defence & Space Co. WTO reportedly come to conclusion on case over EU aid to Airbus on Sept 4; results will not be immediately available to public - unconfirmed report
[11:45] {Threei} - US was complaining about the aid Airbus receives from countries in Europe

[12:37] {dino} i remember that trade, painful
[12:37] {Threei} yeah, loss of smell
[12:39] {Threei} HGSI
[12:39] {Threei} back into support for bounce
[12:40] {Threei} MTXX has it
[12:40] {Threei} watch it to get a feel for these patterns
[12:41] {magoo} going vertical
[12:41] {Threei} how deep pillbacks are, how it acts after breaks
[12:41] {Threei} buold your idea of the way to play momos
[12:41] {Threei} as I said before, we will have more of these
[12:41] {Threei} so use these early birds to study
[12:42] {Threei} the idea here is, in most cases I won't be able to call exact entries on thewm
[12:42] {Threei} it's rare case when they form such perfect setups as HGSI just did
[12:43] {Threei} so, as soon as we identify a stock as momo play, you need to be able to observe it jst briefly in order to come up with the way to play it,
[12:43] {Threei} and it requires watching them for a while to get a feel for them.
[12:43] {Threei} Then we all will be like many little magoos
[12:44] {Threei} (dino is frightened by this perspective but what can we do...)
[12:45] {Threei} rofl... see the post by Laser admin?

[13:48] {Threei} Opinion (and we know what they say about those):
[13:48] {Threei} As a percentage of GDP current national debt is at about the same level as it was during the Eisenhower administration. This is not good but the U.S. has managed much higher debt levels in the past (120% of GDP during WWII) and other countries have rebounded from much worse debt situations in recent history.
