[11:45] {Threei} this news is continuation of what sparked FONR yesterday:
[11:45] {Threei} (US) FDA staff member claims FDA suppressed imaging safety concerns - Seattle Times
[11:45] {Threei} - A former Food and Drug Administration scientist says he was fired after raising concerns about the risks of radiation exposure from high-grade medical scanning. Dr. Julian Nicholas told an audience of imaging specialists that he and other FDA staffers "were pressured to change their scientific opinion," by managers.
[11:45] {Threei} ***Reminder: On 03/28 the New York Times reported that the FDA ignored warnings from medical experts concerning the risks related to the use of CT scans on colon cancer patients. In one particular case, documents show that the FDA's managers sought to approve an application by GE to allow the use of CT scans for colon cancer screening, despite numerous objections from agency scientists, who wanted the application to be rejected.
[11:45] {Threei} ***Note: The FDA will conduct a two-day public meeting, March 30 and 31, entitled: "Device Improvements to Reduce Unnecessary Radiation Exposure From Medical Imaging." The meeting will discuss steps manufacturers of devices used in computed tomography (CT) and fluoroscopy can take that would help reduce unnecessary patient exposure to ionizing radiation during CT/fluoroscopic procedures.
[11:45] {Les} so what about all the airport scanners. they don't add to the problem?
[11:46] {Threei} let's keep FONR on a backburner

[12:10] {RonS} dino, optionmonster.com is a public site. Najarian brothers are tied to a direct feed that tracks up to 200k/sec of options activity. Most significantly they discern if that activity is at the bid/ask or midpoint. Consequently they can tell if the trade is bullish or bearish. Noone else can do this that I know.

[12:26] {Threei} they don't pay any?
[12:27] {RonS} ...much of that info, while good, is tough to act on since you do not know if the trades are being bought at the ask or sold at the bid. That is critical info to discern the directional bet being played. Also many times the activity reads are straddle and strangles which are directionally worthless. Not being critical of any info per se,
[12:27] {RonS} ...but what these guys do is unique.
[12:28] {dino} pwrd l .99
[12:28] {Threei} well, my assumption is:
[12:29] {Threei} when strategy in the scanner is named "10 to 1 put/call ratio and heading lower", you pretty much know the direction
[12:29] {Threei} the rest is watching the stock and finding your play

Mar 29 2010

Very narrow day with few tradeable moves. Couple small stops and nice size win on LOCM on "official" calls side, a few nice discretionary trades, with CHK being the best, and then as icing on a cake two momo movers - FONR and SERV. Junk knows how to fly.


Session Time: Mon Mar 29 00:00:01 2010
[07:26] {KSystems} good morning

[10:28] {strider} yep. trying to get to .25
[10:28] {Threei} pullback is too deep to consider uptrend intact
[10:29] {Threei} even .25 is probably a stretch
[10:29] {Threei} market spike may help
[10:29] {ese} real narrow range on this cbg vad.......although the T&S is going strong like it was

[10:34] {Threei} daily's nice
[10:34] {Threei} market cooperation is very questionable
[10:37] {strider} still waiting on LOCM?
[10:37] {Threei} yes
[10:37] {Threei} combination of .50 resistance on daily and huge offer
[10:38] {Threei} but it's a typical momo candidate, not your usual stock
[10:38] {fernp} what is the stop for LOCM, Vad?
[10:38] {dino} pwrd sm l .00

[10:47] {Threei} something is off about today
[10:47] {Threei} market can't decide which way
[10:48] {Threei} my strong feeling is up
[10:48] {Threei} but it does everything possible to shake out every trade
[10:48] {Threei} TIE, with .05 break can trail stop to under .95
[10:49] {Threei} if SPY breaks 117.3 direction should become clearer
[10:49] {jfjf64} btu
[10:49] {jfjf64} .50 break
[10:50] {Threei} scalpers trail stop to under .95
[10:50] {Threei} day traders to under .90
[10:50] {ese} how bout mrna on this pback vad?
[10:51] {strider} CHK 1/2 out +.09\
[10:51] {Threei} depending on market action, ese.. if continues hesitating, wait for a drop to under .35, closer to .30 or even under
