1. First bottom is set on higher volume and pierces lower Bollinger Band;
2. Second volume has lower volume and is contained within Bollinger Bands
3. Distance between the bottom price and peak between the bottoms is tight enough to give a comfortable stop.

[08:29] {hawk} good morning idlers
[08:29] {Threei} what did you call us?
[08:30] {hawk} now you're off the idlers list :)
[08:30] {Threei} that was easy
[08:31] {Threei} getting off nemo's disgruntled postal worker list is not that simple
[08:32] {hawk} lol, i'm just trying to stay off it
[08:32] {Threei} we all are... but sooner or later you are bound to get on it
[08:33] {Threei} and once you are in, it's a Hotel California
[08:34] {Threei} (US) MAY DURABLE GOODS ORDERS: -1.1% V -1.4%E; DURABLES EX-TRANSPORTATION: 0.9% V 1.0%
[08:34] {Threei} US) INITIAL JOBLESS CLAIMS: 457K V 463KE; CONTINUING CLAIMS: 4.548M V 4.55ME
[08:35] {Threei} sheesh LTBR
[08:37] {hawk} wow
[08:38] {Les} lol that's an understatement
[08:40] {Les} guess I'll be looking for a short there today
[08:40] {Les} afternoon all
[08:40] {Threei} is it onshort list for you?
[08:40] {Threei} hi
[08:40] {Threei} not here
[08:40] {Les} how do I see short list?
[08:41] {Threei} test order, way above the market
[08:41] {Les} well if it's not shortable for real players, I'll leave it alone
[08:41] {Les} otherwise I'm just fooling myself
[08:44] {hawk} Vad, which ecn do you route thru?
[08:44] {Threei} NASDAQ most often
[08:45] {Threei} on NASDAQ stocks it will be default, on NYSE smart route can go to MLCO sometimes, so I switch to NASDAQ to avoid it
[08:45] {Threei} not that it's bad, but can be just a tad slower
[08:47] {hawk} Ok, thanks. I've been using all Island
[08:48] {Threei} that'll work
[08:49] {hawk} yeah, seems to work fine, just wondered if there was a super secret method
[08:50] {Threei} there is a "enter winning trades only" route
[08:50] {Threei} but you get access to it only after 100,000 trades
[08:50] {hawk} if only
[08:50] {hawk} lol
[08:50] {hawk} so in another 2 weeks i should qualify
[08:51] {Threei} you can speed up the process by buying and selling 1 shares of C all day
