[09:49] {Threei} not rushing to cover last 1/4
[09:49] {Threei} will try to trail loosely and maximize profit
[09:49] {Threei} ideally it stays under .20, loses 23
[09:50] {Threei} stop to .21
[09:51] {Threei} now want it to stay under .10 and lose .90 for the next trail
[09:51] {Threei} .95 even
[09:53] {dino} 11417 and 1195 filled
[09:53] {ese} L holi .98

[10:07] {Threei} oh boy
[10:07] {Threei} read this
[10:07] {Threei} (EU) Plans now under consideration are said to include idea of Greece debt haircuts taking place in two phases (termed "PSI-plus") - financial press
[10:07] {Threei} - EU and banking leaders meeting in Paris today said to be considering various options for Greece, have still not settled on any single idea.
[10:07] {Threei} - Ideas include a role for the EIB, and creating an intermediate fund for to be used for bank recapitalizations. Expectation is that Greece will have to do additional privatizations to help pay off debts.
[10:07] {Threei} - Leaders expect the 6th Greek aid tranche will be released to Greece soon; Greece will have to give up some autonomy in exchange for the new loan package.
[10:07] {Threei} - Follow up 09:28: PIMCO's El-Erian: Believes Europe will have a proposal for debt haircuts very soon.
[10:07] {Threei} give up some autonomy?
[10:08] {ese} give up some autonomy?
[10:08] {Threei} come on Greece, stand up and end this nonsense once and for all
[10:08] {ese} your thinkin the same thing as me
[10:09] {Threei} this is ridiculous
[10:09] {dino} i woild not give up autonomy
[10:09] {Threei} quiet invasion
[10:09] {ese} yup
[10:09] {Threei} this is why EU must break down why it's not too late
[10:10] {Threei} while
[10:10] {ese} thats kinda a..."wow" when you think about it
[10:10] {Threei} yes, but that's where it was going all this time
[10:10] {Threei} half union can't work
[10:10] {Threei} monetary without fiscal
[10:10] {Threei} and uniting fiscal part requires intergration that essentally ends sovereignity
[10:11] {Threei} want to see how it shapes up eventually, look up Soviet Union
[10:12] {dino} would be better for greece to say f it and default
[10:14] {Threei} absolutely
[10:14] {ese} even the bond people are saying that
[10:15] {ese} frees up a crap load of cash to restructure and do things right............but there greeks....lookin out for number one so that ain't gonna happen
[10:16] {Threei} Long Setup: LVS .40 break
[10:16] {Threei} half lot
[10:16] {Threei} stop under .30
[10:16] {Threei} target 1:2
[10:16] {ese} stopped holi .89 -.09
[10:17] {ese} that was fun while it lasted.....not done with this
[10:18] {Threei} no go
[10:18] {Threei} (EU) No deal said to be expected on Greece debt haircuts before the EU summit on Oct 23 - financial press
[10:18] {Threei} - REMINDER: Euro zone finance ministers have scheduled a meeting for Oct 21, two days before official EU summit.
[10:18] {Threei} half lot was a good idea
[10:18] {Threei} LVS is a bit too volatile lately

[12:49] {Threei} (US) House Rep Frank requests the Congressional supercommitee implement a banking fee as part of attempts at deficit reduction- Fee would be aimed at the largest banks
[12:50] {dino} all they do is attack banks w/fees that get passed onto us
[12:50] {Threei} unbelieavable
[12:54] {nemo} doesn't matter what it actually does, it's how you sell it to the moron masses...as long as they buy the reality is irrelevant
[12:57] {dino} you're right nemo
[12:57] {dino} and when 45% pay no income taxes and roughly 40% collect payments from govt. they like the idea
[12:58] {nemo} standard distribution across a qualified sample
