01[09:29]  - Guan defended Dagong's higher AA plus rating for China, saying it's natural for Washington's biggest creditor to have a higher rating.
01[09:29]  **Reminder: On July 13th Chinese rating agency Dagong Global Credit Rating placed US A+ sovereign rating on negative watch. Back in November of 2011, Dagong downgraded the US sovereign credit rating to "A+" from "AA," citing QE2 program
01[09:30]  they donwgrade us... let's downgrade them first?
01[09:30] Short Setup: RIMM  .90 break

[10:04] ok
01[10:04]  drop from .70 in two bars, no consolidation
01[10:04]  why would you short that
[10:04] previous support
[10:05] yeah, good I did not do that
01[10:05]  this not about levels only, but also about HOW the stock gets there
01[10:05]  .60 is support, fine,
01[10:05]  now
01[10:05]  stocxk can get there in a slow gradual decline, consolidate a little, then break
