Vad's sessions - 2 days, including live trading
Not bad start for the week. Scalps outweghed stops, and couple bigger plays on momentum movers made it a firmly winning day. BCRX gave very nice bounce play, CYTK and AIG provided momentum, and usual suspects (LVS, HIG etc) provided scalps and stops.

[15:04] {dino} ggc
[15:07] {ese} Hi everyone........just thought that i would pop in after my staff meeting
06[15:07] * magoo slaps ese around a bit with a large trout
[15:07] {Threei} missed a few nice ones ese
[15:08] {Threei} and spectacular call by magoo on AIG
[15:09] {ese} so i'm i'm out of arna with that second trade before i left at .27 +.14 on6k and i just got out of dndn from last friday in at .50 and out at .03 +.53....so i'll se you all tomorrow
[15:09] {Threei} okay... rub our noses in it
[15:09] {Threei} and run away
[15:09] {Threei} ok CYTK
[15:09] {ese} vad this ha been a very good day.......i'm loving you right now
[15:10] {Threei} wanna break 5 now?
[15:12] {Threei} who took .80 break on CYTK, if you don't scalp then sure take hlf off near 5
[15:12] {Threei} half that was
[15:12] {Threei} PALM... holy cramer
[15:13] {nemo} holy and cramer in the same sentence....nahhhhh
[15:13] {Threei} how is cramer worse than let's sat mackerel?
[15:14] {nemo} it's the use of the two words...he's the investing anti-christ (with full realization that the word "investing" should not be used here
[15:14] {nemo} )
[15:19] {Threei} 5 break would be just perfect now
[15:19] {Threei} beautiful chart
[15:20] {Threei} explosive
[15:20] {magoo} AIG feels like just getting started
[15:21] {magoo} palm bounce vad?
[15:22] {nemo} cytk froze
[15:22] {Threei} need much deeper pullback
[15:23] {magoo} BAC
[15:23] {magoo} VOLUME
[15:23] {Threei} BAC Close to deal that may end loss sharing agreement - WSJ cites sources (17.37, -0.26, -1.47%)
[15:24] {nemo} that volume spike on cytk, was that the blow off?
[15:24] {Threei} not much of a price spike for that
[15:26] {Threei} - struck a deal with the govt in January that gave it loss protection on $118B of Merrill assets, but BoA said it wanted to exit the deal in May.
[15:27] {Threei} hmmm
[15:27] {Threei} so how is it good for BAC?
[15:29] {nemo} stopped cytk
[15:29] {Threei} hmm?
[15:29] {nemo} on break of 5 I entered
[15:29] {Threei} wow
[15:29] {dino} wondering the same
[15:29] {Threei} call was 4.80
[15:29] {Threei} 5 break for continuation
[15:29] {Threei} not for new entry
[15:29] {nemo} I misinterpreted
[15:29] {Threei} so it was either scalp into 6,
[15:29] {nemo} [15:19] {&Threei} 5 break would be just perfect now
[15:29] {nemo} [15:19] {&Threei} beautiful chart
[15:29] {nemo} [15:20] {&Threei} explosive
[15:29] {Threei} or half out and trail
[15:30] {Threei} so second half would be stopped b/e
[15:30] {Threei} [14:36] {Threei} same setup shapes up again
[15:30] {Threei} [14:36] {Threei} .80 break
[15:30] {magoo} first call was a beauty on it vad
[15:30] {magoo} second too btw
[15:31] {nemo} as I said, misinterpreted your prose
[15:31] {Threei} running comments
[15:31] {Threei} Market Internals update at 3:30pmET
[15:31] {Threei} - NYSE volume 850M shares, about even to its three-month average; decliners lead advancers by 1.9:1.
[15:31] {Threei} - NASDAQ volume 2.01B shares, about 10% above its three-month average; decliners lead advancers by 1.1:1.
[15:31] {Threei} - VIX index +-0.75% to just under 24.00
[15:32] {Threei} so, after huge volume on Fri with practically no price advance, which usually rweads as distribution
[15:32] {Threei} today we get volume dropoff, with slightly negative price
[15:32] {nemo} rally continues tomorrow
[15:32] {Threei} I don't know how to connect these two
[15:33] {Threei} they asre contradictionary
[15:33] {magoo} dip buyers were impressive
[15:36] {magoo} bulls need a strong close here
[15:38] {nemo} does op ex on Friday kinda' nullify things?
[15:39] {nemo} I think it was quadruple witching hour, no?
[15:40] {dino} today, just reaction to the strike pushes from last week, imo
[15:40] {dino} bigger issue may be end of 3rd quarter.
[15:41] {dino} rino\
[15:45] {magoo} any read PALM vad?
[15:45] {Threei} no... short after Craner effect wears out
