[09:12] {Threei} strategy is about setups
[09:12] {Les} cool
[09:12] {larisa} gm :)
[09:12] {Threei} IPO is simply a stock with no history, so setups are harder to come by and less reliable

[10:08] {Threei} oh, I get it
[10:08] {dino} vprt to .88
[10:08] {ese} still not that confident after coming back from Italy
[10:08] {Threei} you devoted too much buying power to taking out that dino's offer on BPOP
[10:08] {dino} out vprt +.43
[10:08] {Threei} nice
[10:08] {ese} to be honest am keeping my eye on abio.......wannna go huge there
[10:09] {Threei} what do you see as trigger? .65?
[10:09] {Threei} or .50?
[10:10] {shorty} out zion for a big loss, for me that is
[10:10] {ese} not yet....am looking for some kind of uptrend signal
[10:11] {ese} moving avgs up....higher lows that sort of thing
[10:11] {Threei} shorty... don't you know the size of the loss you are willing to take BEFORE taking the trade??
[10:11] {dino} kmx
[10:11] {shorty} Yes
[10:11] {shorty} I was expecting it.
[10:11] {Threei} loss is planned in advance
[10:12] {Threei} and counted on
[10:12] {Threei} if you consider it a big loss for you, why do you take the trade with this stop and this position size?
[10:12] {dino} shorty, profits=luck; losses =skill
[10:12] {Threei} risk is your FIRST consideration for the trade
[10:12] {Threei} profit is second
[10:15] {shorty} It's a big loss considering how many cents, but in terms of money, it's peanuts because of the amount of shares that I played. Practicing, making mistakes that won't criple my account, I geuss.
[10:15] {Threei} well, you did take a loss before stop was hit
[10:16] {Threei} means to me, it exceeded your pain limit
[10:16] {shorty} My stop was 22, and I pulled the trigger as soon as I saw 22
[10:16] {Les} stopped bpop
[10:16] {shorty} That is it, I had no idea what my pain limit is, in a way.
[10:16] {Threei} yeah, someone's effort to take out that offer went to waste on BPOP
[10:17] {dino} use $ figure and divide by shares. thin stock smaller shares and wider stop
[10:18] {dino} fwiw shorty, my typical sm is 300, w/.33 stop
[10:19] {dino} xrtx l .50
[10:20] {shorty} Thanks dino. .33 is more then double then I would expect. .10 is where I usually would stop, but I picked 22 so -.15.
[10:20] {Threei} shorty... this is so very wrong
[10:21] {Threei} whole approach
[10:21] {Threei} you don't place stop depending on how much you are willing to lose
[10:21] {Threei} you place stop where chart tells you to
[10:21] {shorty} That is good to hear, in a weird way Threei. It's encouraging words.
[10:21] {Threei} and regulate monetary risk by position size
[10:22] {Threei} please do two things
[10:22] {shorty} Can you help me with ZION? How would you hae played, assuming you would have.
[10:22] {shorty} have
[10:23] {Threei} 1. read http://blog.realitytrader.com/2007/04/stops-why-and-how.html
[10:23] {Threei} 2. go to paper trading at this point, and stay with it until you've gone through MPP, built your trading approach from ground up,
[10:24] {Threei} and watched videos couple times
[10:24] {shorty} You got it Threei.
[10:24] {Threei} on ZION, I would have figured out stop size (16-17 cents,
[10:24] {Threei} defined my max loss,
[10:25] {shorty} Thanks, and I got the video last night.
[10:25] {Threei} determined position size coming from that,
[10:25] {Threei} bought .15,
[10:25] {Threei} placed stop under 22
[10:25] {Threei} but there is more to all this
[10:26] {dino} xrtx stopped -.11

[12:40] {shorty} Threei, should stick to my game plan. Stupid thing I did on ZION. I usually play 5-10 cent scalps with a 5-6 cent loss.
[12:41] {Threei} there is nothing wrong with a play as long as it's a valid setup...
[12:41] {Threei} if risk is bigger than what you accept, decrease siz
[12:41] {Threei} if it's impossible, skip a play
[12:41] {shorty} or don't play it.
[12:42] {Threei} right
[12:43] {shorty} I feel like a child. "Don't do it! I said Don't do it!... I told you not to do it, see what happened."
[12:44] {Threei} what's with prolonged self-flagellation about one single play... :)
[12:45] {shorty} Part of growing up Threei.

[12:46] {Threei} every erroneous trade is a contribution into education

[12:46] {Threei} by removing this kind of errors from your future tradingf

[14:06] {Threei} - CESR plans to look in to several "technology driven" developments as part of the EU's revision of trading rules known as markets in financial instruments directive (MiFID). This week a report by Aite, a consultancy, suggested that high-frequency trading could account for almost half of Europe's equities trading volumes by 2012.
[14:06] {Threei} - The committee said its inquiry will cover other technology driven strategies including sponsored access, co-location services, fee structures, trade tick regimes and indications of interest.

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is ...m
