Jul 08 2010

Today's Catch of the Day illustrates a concept of the follower stock. The idea is simple: leader shows the direction, you take a trade in a follower. In this case, leader was GS, and FAS was following it. Being not as volatile, moving smoother and allowing for better position size, it was an easier trading candidate. After capitulatory selloff GS consolidated for a min under resistance, then broke it, and we took FAS long. Chart is annotated with all this, take a look (click for larger view) 


Other than that, listless day with some wins, some stops, eventually slightly negative.


Session Time: Thu Jul 08 00:00:00 2010

[08:34] {nemo} back
[08:34] {strider} That's the lowest thing you've ever said to me, nemo.
[08:35] {strider} Now you have a new standard to shoot for.
[08:37] {nemo} :)

[08:41] {strider} LVS consolidating
[08:42] {nemo} if things stay positive bidu should close the gap today and get at least to 74.20

[08:50] {dino} gm all
[08:50] {Threei}  dino :)
[08:50] {strider} dino
[08:50] {strider} :)
[08:52] {dino} :D
[08:52] {Threei}  - ECB welcomes the decision to publish bank stress tests; appropriate action will have to be taken where needed as a result.
[08:53] {Threei}  anyone has even slightest doubt that results will be properly massaged before published?
[08:53] {dino} no
[08:54] {dino} do you doubt that all releases are "modified". i don't
[08:55] {Threei}  well, some aren't probably - not by design but by lack of competency of "modifiers" {G}
[08:55] {Threei}  I mean, we do deal with idiots
[08:55] {Threei}  let me illustrate the point:
[08:55] {Threei}  15:39] {Threei} dose of idiocy waieted almost till the end of the day to be injected, but it's a very large dose:
[08:55] {Threei}  [15:39] {Threei} (US) Fed's Kocherlakota: Financial institutions should be taxed based on the risk they create
[08:55] {Threei}  [15:39] {Threei} - Getting the tax right would cover the true cost of risky activities
[08:55] {Threei}  [15:39] {Threei} - Bailouts of financial markets are inevitable, no legislation could eliminate market crises.
[08:56] {Threei}  tell me, is this guy suitable to judge the taste of scrambled eggs?
[08:56] {Threei}  and if yes, shouldn't it be the highest position he must be given?
[08:57] {dino} lol
[08:57] {Threei}  seriously though... just think of what he said
[08:57] {Threei}  this is plain scary these people are our policymakers
[09:03] {_khaln} gm all
[09:03] {Threei}  morning khaln
[09:04] {bellowsbunch} morning
[09:04] {Threei}  bellows :)
[09:07] {strider} SKH
[09:09] {Threei}  question of the day: rally continuation, pulback or consolidation
[09:10] {strider} probably
[09:10] {Threei}  I agree
[09:10] {strider} I think two of the three.
[09:10] {strider} not sure which two, though.
[09:11] {strider} And two out of three ain't bad.
[09:15] {bellowsbunch} Lebron
[09:17] {dino} do they run them up into expiration like last month
[09:17] {larisa} gm:)
[09:17] {Threei}  larisa :)
[09:18] {Threei}  so far, preopen chart shapes up as preparation for another day of relentless climb
[09:19] {Threei}  things can change on a dime of course, but let's make it a working assumption, and see what we can find
[09:19] {nemo} yeah, looking for break of bull flag on bidu
[09:20] {Threei}  traditional opening pullback on LVS, long entry would be around .20 - .30
[09:21] {bellowsbunch} you'll notify us with setup?
[09:21] {Threei}  don't I always?
[09:21] {nemo} ?
[09:21] {bellowsbunch} yes
[09:22] {bellowsbunch} ty
[09:22] {Threei}  then what makes you think I'd make an exception this time? :)
[09:22] {Threei}  just alerting in advance for now what I am looking for
[09:22] {bellowsbunch} got it
[09:23] {nemo} could lvs be a break too Vad?
[09:24] {Threei}  yes but I won't play it
[09:24] {Threei}  early opening breaks on LVS are fakeouts 9 out of 10
[09:25] {Threei}  I am not about to try and guess which of them will be that 1
[09:25] {lasertrev} morning

[11:22] {Threei}  let me just make a quick comment on aggressive entries
[11:22] {Threei}  this is exactly the kind that makes most sense to me,
[11:22] {Threei}  on sharp pullback far away from trigger p;oint
[11:22] {Threei}  into support level

[11:23] {dino} +.16
[11:23] {Threei}  much better way to apply aggresive entry than say buy at .13
[11:24] {Threei}  which may have an advantage of easier entry than on break which is easy to miss,
[11:24] {Threei}  but void of all other advantages

[12:43] {strider} you're right, though.
[12:43] {strider} I watch GS a lot, and sometimes think I can read it .
[12:43] {strider} Sometimes I can't:)
[12:44] {Threei}  and sometimes it rains
[12:44] {Threei}  it's just that over many years I came to think that one of the most harmful trading habits is arbitrary buying lows or shorting highs
[12:45] {strider} The goal is for it not to be arbitrary.
[12:45] {strider} To have a system.
[12:45] {Threei}  drop, pause, bounce, retest of the low, bounce and break of the resistance - fine
[12:45] {Threei}  it's a system
[12:45] {strider} Obviously, dino has a workable system.
[12:45] {strider} But I got no idea what it is. :)
[12:46] {magoo} me either:)
[12:46] {Threei}  simply buying low as it forms - rather guessing

[13:09] {Threei}  63 is too far from here

[13:49] {dino} lol
[13:49] {Threei}  lol
[13:58] {nemo} .20 been strong support for spy
[14:01] {nemo} that .20 level is a pivot level also
[14:01] {patience} .
[14:02] {strider} You have a succinct way of putting things, patience.
[14:03] {magoo} vad, any bounce play LVS FCX
[14:05] {dino} feels like they can't take them down, so up we go
[14:09] {dino} spoke too soon
[14:10] {nemo} yeah, but strong support at .20 breaks that could get interesting especiall if it breaks 106
[14:10] {nemo} hah!..."The Rath of Khaln"  I'm bored
[14:11] {Threei}  FCX, probably,
[14:11] {Threei}  LVS, less likely
[14:11] {magoo} wheres FCX entry?
[14:11] {dino} in space it is very cold
[14:12] {Threei}  .75 break seems to be it
[14:12] {nemo} break of .75
[14:12] {nemo} oy
[14:12] {nemo} testing spy support
[14:13] {nemo} wow dino
[14:13] {nemo} o.k. getting interesting
[14:14] {strider} stopped earlier GE, -.06
[14:16] {nemo} if spy losesthe low might go to .60 area
[14:16] {dino} out itri -.24
[14:17] {strider} dow is still green
[14:18] {nemo} wait a minute :)
[14:18] {strider} yeah
[14:18] {strider} we can fix that.
[14:21] {nemo} oopie doopie we have fun
[14:21] {strider} BP ignoring the blood
[14:22] {dino} hl l rost .15
[14:22] {Threei}  if market continues selling, LVS .30 break is short trigger
[14:24] {dino} itri rinsed
[14:25] {nemo} in fcx .26
[14:26] {nemo} out .32
[14:26] {nemo} scared
[14:28] {Threei} Short Setup: LVS  .40 break
[14:29] {nemo} mags support fcx .22
[14:29] {nemo} I wussed
[14:30] {dino} rost to .35
[14:31] {dino} to .38
[14:31] {nemo} see if old support beomes resistance on spy
[14:32] {Threei}  very listless day for me
[14:32] {dino} here too, missed a bunch earlier, up slightly
[14:33] {dino} am hurting me last 4 days
[14:33] {magoo} yea, been slightly neg all day
[14:33] {dino} pm better
[14:33] {dino} to .41 rost
[14:34] {dino} out slip,.39, +.24
[14:34] {nemo} dino as an outlier, seems scalping rules the day
[14:34] {dino} yeah
[14:34] {dino} size up cut em quick
[14:36] {nemo} lets blame it on HFT and algos
[14:37] {strider} algo invented HFTs
[14:37] {nemo} works for me
[14:37] {Threei}  why so complicated? Les is not here
[14:37] {nemo} It's hard to say anything nice about him
[14:38] {nemo} Then again, I have problems saying nice things in general
[14:39] {Threei} Short Setup: FCX  .30 break
[14:39] {Threei}  stop above .40 of course
[14:40] {Threei}  and if works, not a sca;lp, should be good for more
[14:40] {nemo} oy, I would think this is a two way
[14:41] {Threei}  not sure I got what you mean
[14:41] {nemo} brak of .35
[14:42] {nemo} break
[14:42] {Threei}  if it's two ways, .30 triggered first nonetheless, roight?
[14:42] {nemo} yeah,
[14:42] {nemo} bu
[14:42] {Threei}  market spike out of nowhere
[14:42] {Threei}  shrug
[14:42] {magoo} mkts feels up (kinda lol)
[14:43] {strider} stop fcx -.12
[14:43] {nemo} definite maybe mags
[14:44] {magoo} i am really really sure , i think
[14:44] {Threei}  I am absolutrely sure I am clueless today
[14:44] {magoo} TSLA rips
[14:45] {Threei}  US) Preview: May Consumer Credit due out at 15:00ET

[14:49] {strider} spy hitting head on 200ma
[14:50] {strider} long bp .37
[14:52] {magoo} any play TSLA vad?
[14:52] {nemo} short
[14:53] {Threei}  16.50 break a while ago is the only darn thing I an see as a valid play today
[14:53] {Threei}  the rest is total ECG
[14:53] {Threei}  messy chart
[14:53] {nemo} see...short
[14:54] {nemo} but like everything else today...a frikin' scalp
[14:54] {Threei}  5 cents?
[14:54] {nemo} I called it at 17.10
[14:54] {nemo} would have been .10, but the stop would have been undisciplined
[14:55] {nemo} but it is continuing to fall a bit
[14:56] {nemo} woulda' got .20
[14:57] {nemo} .30
[14:58] {nemo} so 1:2 would have been reasonable
[14:58] {nemo} probably bounce around .70
[14:58] {strider} out 1/2 BP .44
[14:59] {Threei}  KS) UN Security Council has reportedly decided to make a formal declaration on the ship sinking

[15:00] {nemo} go short!
[15:00] {dino} see the #'s are always fudged
[15:01] {Threei}  I can't believe it
[15:01] {nemo} fudged!
[15:01] {nemo} It's unadulterated prevarication
[15:01] {Threei}  you can fudge 1.3 to 1.5
[15:01] {Threei}  or 1.1
[15:01] {Threei}  but -15 to + 1??
[15:01] {Threei}  Total consumer credit annual rate -4.5%
[15:01] {Threei}  - Revolving credit -$7.4 v -$8.5B (20th straight decline; longest decline on record
[15:04] {Threei}  lol, market loses sensitivity to all this stuff
[15:05] {Threei}  if they announce that GDP has shrunk by 50% in the last 15 min, market will probably respond by two downticks
[15:05] {dino} hmmm, bad news doesn't matter perhaps
[15:05] {strider} stopped last half BP -.01
[15:11] {Threei}  OK, time to decide

[15:12] {larisa} +70
[15:13] {Threei}  me, barely green, maybe +5 or 10
[15:13] {larisa} yesterday i wanted to say 10k+ but was afraid to look like an optimistic idiot :)
[15:13] {Threei}  women can't be idiots
[15:13] {Threei}  sorry but we men monopolize that honor
[15:14] {larisa} believe me, we can
[15:14] {Threei}  you girls can be, umm, charmingly silly
06[15:14] * strider slaps Threei around a bit with a large cardboard cutout of Madonna
[15:15] {Threei}  charming
[15:16] {dino} i think +100 dji
[15:17] {Threei}  considering that my today's record is beyond pitiful, you both are probably right
[15:17] {_khaln} ok
[15:17] {strider} So, decreed any stately pleasure domes lately, _khaln?
[15:18] {strider} (nobody will get that)

[15:35] {Threei}  totaly taken out of 2 years old campaign

[15:36] {Threei}  derivatives are not good for you, all those free market folks tell you you are on your own if you don't have insurance or can't afford college
[15:36] {Threei}  no one bothers to write new talking points?
[15:37] {Threei}  polls don't matter, I know what is good for America

[15:46] {Threei}  for a rally continuation, a bit too low volume
[15:46] {Threei}  not sure how it translates into tomorrow
[15:46] {dino} pain
[15:46] {Threei}  lol
[15:57] {Threei}  OK guys, I'll pretend I haven't even waken up today
[15:57] {Threei}  and start life anew tomorrow
