Not bad for the Monday and last day of the month: slow but steady 40 cents on VICL, 20 cents on BAC, something decent on AIG, 15 cents stop on half lot attempt to shoret RIMM, then nice momentum play on SVA. All in all, August was a very nice month for us.

[14:49] {dino} out +.30
[14:50] {magoo} 3 pm..move will do or kill
[14:54] {Threei} IMF Chief Economist Blanchard: Central banks reserves have not influenced growth; accumulated FX reserves are not efficient (related USD/CNY EUR/CNY )
[14:57] {Threei} toughie mags
[14:57] {magoo} yea..was just saying to dino.,...trades like donkey now
[14:58] {magoo} in .15 here
[14:58] {Threei} maybe because it's AMEX
[14:58] {magoo} really REALLY thought it was going
[14:58] {Threei} ECNs changed it greatly but still... long tradition of weird moves
[14:58] {magoo} i got 3k too...so, worried
[14:59] {Threei} well... as classic book says, sell down to sleeping level
[14:59] {magoo} yea...might be scalpin soon
[15:00] {Threei} this is going to be interesting:
[15:00] {Threei} Reynolds American Inc File Suit with other tobacco manufacturers Challenging Provisions of FDA Tobacco Act
[15:00] {Threei} - joined other tobacco manufacturers and a tobacco retailer in filing suit today in federal court in Bowling Green, Ky., seeking to protect their First Amendment right to communicate with adult tobacco consumers about their products. The law passed by Congress in June, granting the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory oversight over tobacco products, contains several provisions restricting or banning truthful speech, contrary to the requirements of the First Amendment.
[15:02] {dino} and ironicallt the govt subsides the growers
[15:02] {Threei} yeah
[15:02] {nemo} pays them not to plant
[15:02] {Threei} and makes out like bandit on sin taxes
[15:03] {dino} if you think about it, smokers die youinger, so save on heath care costs
[15:03] {nemo} not unlike oil, when congress whas decrying the "obscene profits" yet collecting a healthy chunk on every domestically produced barrel
[15:03] {dino} mother hen govt
[15:04] {dino} gok drop
[15:06] {nemo} still can't short aig
[15:07] {dino} nor i
[15:07] {dino} thinking about puts
[15:09] {nemo} huh, wfc actually strong today, considering
[15:11] {dino} didn't get expected downgrade from moodys
[15:17] {magoo} SVA certainly not easy vad
[15:17] {Threei} no
[15:17] {Threei} listen... let's play it by the book
[15:17] {Threei} sell 2K here
[15:17] {dino} hl l gok ave .51
[15:18] {Threei} take &200 profit
[15:18] {Threei} keep stop under 9 for the remaining 1K,
[15:18] {Threei} worst comes to worts, you are roughly flat after commissions
[15:18] {Threei} if it works, just let this last K ride
[15:19] {Threei} I underastand the desire to squeeze all possible out of it, but it's not worth $500 risk'
[15:19] {Threei} you had too good month to spoil it on last day
[15:20] {magoo} ok
[15:21] {Threei} finally
[15:22] {magoo} out BIG DOOUGH
[15:22] {brian3579} that 10 call looks good
[15:22] {Threei} I am out here too
[15:22] {magoo} thanx coach
[15:22] {Threei} always
[15:22] {fernp} wonderful SVA. great play
[15:22] {magoo} could have just as easily killed me
[15:23] {Threei} that's what risk control is for...
[15:23] {Threei} leave it to amateurs to go all in and count on making a killing on a single play
[15:23] {Threei} you took it fern?
[15:23] {magoo} let me refraize...could have been stopped
[15:23] {fernp} no
[15:23] {larisa} where did you enter on SVA, I was away?
[15:23] {fernp} too dangerous for me
[15:24] {Threei} magoo at .15 larisa
[15:24] {Threei} I took .35 break
[15:24] {nemo} what was the stop?
[15:24] {magoo} mine was .97
[15:25] {magoo} never lower than .04 i think
[15:25] {magoo} while i was in
[15:25] {magoo} now like 10
[15:25] {Threei} sheesh, not done
[15:25] {nemo} what was your stop vad?
[15:25] {Threei} pace picks up again
[15:25] {dino} igk to .57
[15:25] {Threei} it wasn't going to stop me
[15:26] {Threei} this pace explosion was no breainer
[15:26] {Threei} offered 1K at .48, 1 at .55 and 1 at .69
[15:27] {dino} out ave .55, +.10
[15:27] {Threei} and if it did urn around stop would be defined in terms of p;rice level
[15:27] {Threei} I bought on momentum,. not on technicals
[15:28] {Threei} so momentum reversal would stop me out
[15:28] {magoo} vad...this momo has been like ole days for us
[15:28] {magoo} thats why iom doing well
[15:28] {Threei} second half of august, no less
[15:28] {magoo} i need the momo
[15:28] {Threei} of all trading months, lol
[15:29] {dino} you should change your nick to mogoo
[15:29] {nemo} Trade what you see, not what you think...
[15:29] {magoo} agree nemo..
[15:29] {magoo} with a dash of "feel" and a smidge of luck
[15:30] {magoo} that could easily see 11 today

[15:35] {magoo} i went to reliable sourse...yahoo message board say it will be 20 by friday lol
[15:36] {Threei} I feel humbled by the welath of knowledge, mags
06[15:37] * Threei kicks SVA in the rear end
[15:37] {larisa} technicals show no 10.. of course there is always stupid momo :)
[15:38] {magoo} but the message boards larisa...they dont lie
[15:38] {larisa} thats true :)
[15:38] {Threei} you underestimate the stupidity of three factors put together:
[15:39] {Threei} me, magoo and momo
[15:39] {magoo} um..momo is my thing'
[15:39] {Threei} these 3M and capable of outstupiding anything you can think of
[15:39] {magoo} my best momo trade ever vad...remember? years ago
[15:39] {Threei} and = are
[15:39] {Threei} hmmm... remind me
[15:40] {magoo} bidu ipo...it went to like 160
[15:40] {Threei} I remember losses well... wins, not so much
[15:40] {Threei} oh yeah
[15:40] {magoo} 20k
[15:40] {Threei} that was beyond stupid {G}
[15:40] {magoo} and i was there:)
[15:40] {Threei} and I was with you
[15:40] {larisa} wow, really?
[15:41] {magoo} yup..screaming all thge way lol
[15:41] {Threei} yeah... magoo traded, what's the word... "stupidly"?
[15:41] {magoo} hell larisa, did 12k on AIG onee ttade
[15:41] {magoo} last week
[15:41] {larisa} :)
[15:41] {magoo} momo..is why
[15:42] {larisa} 33.80 vads call i didi not take AIG :)
[15:42] {Threei} I am happy when it's around... 'cause when it goes away, magoo starts nagging me for a trade :)
[15:42] {magoo} but, ive gotten pummeled too...it aint easy
[15:43] {Threei} 33.80 was safe call, I don't know why you skipped it back then larisa
[15:43] {Threei} nice tight stop
[15:43] {larisa} your way is too emotional magoo, I want to stay sane so my husband do not kick me out :)
[15:43] {larisa} AIG is just too wild fo rme
[15:43] {Threei} yes, for the most part
[15:43] {Threei} but sometimes it tightents
[15:43] {Threei} and gives normal setup
[15:44] {Threei} so you have best of both world
[15:44] {Threei} normal stop,
[15:44] {Threei} but if it works - momentum and its wild nature make a win real big
[15:44] {larisa} :)
[15:44] {larisa} real big is for men
[15:45] {larisa} I am just a girl :)
[15:46] {Threei} so, the only stop today is that 15 cents on half lot RIMM
[15:46] {magoo} but actually...what ive learned...is just let the winner win...with AIG, it momo up...never stopped us, and instead of scalp, let it run run run 4 points
[15:46] {Threei} and it's the only short
[15:46] {magoo} my second best day of year vad..thank u
[15:47] {Threei} good to hear :)
[15:47] {nemo} must be your best month
