Nice strong day, as it often happens on down market days for us. Also, changed somewhat morning strategy which helped increase win/lose ratio.

[10:11] {Threei} SPY loss of 135 should seal the deal on panic

[10:30] {Threei} timely cover Les
[10:30] {Les} it's an issue I've needed to resolve
[10:31] {Les} don't like scalping but sometimes gotta act like one
[10:31] {Threei} easy to resolve....
[10:32] {Threei} don't think of it in terms of scalp;ing vs something else,
[10:32] {Threei} and in terms of liking or disliking,
[10:32] {Threei} instead, think of in terms of doing whatever chart tells you to
[10:32] {Threei} leave definitions to analysts and touchy-feely stuff to, umm... I dunno
[10:33] {Threei} to someone else
[10:34] {thomcbell} oh Vad give me a break qcom
[10:34] {Threei} yeah

[10:51] {Threei} out TZA
[10:51] {Threei} all in all, day shapes up nicely
[10:53] {andj} Vad...good morning.
[10:53] {Threei} morning andj
[10:54] {andj} I have a question...a novice one
[10:55] {nemo} don't stick your chin out like that
[10:55] {andj} the dow, spy and such markets are valued at a price...right
[10:55] {andj} nemo...give me a chance
[10:55] {nemo} it's tough
[10:56] {nemo} keep going
[10:56] {andj} how do the markets get their dollar value then...? are they sold as shares of their own market?
[10:57] {Threei} I am not sure I understasnd
[10:57] {nemo} they are traded in futures markets and cash market...each has an influence on the value...supposedly they reflect the value of their underlying index components
[10:57] {Threei} but most of all, I am not sure what it is you are trying to find out, as far as prctical trading goes
[10:57] {andj} and nemo...never answer one of my questions with 'dumb ass' at the end
[10:58] {Threei} lol
[10:58] {Threei} andj, zoom out a bit and ask yourself
[10:58] {andj} nemo's got it...i don't understand what the indexes are made up of.
[10:58] {Threei} what is it you are after?
[10:58] {Threei} studying theory of market structure?
[10:59] {andj} well you guys follow spy as 'the market'...but just what part of the market is it?
[10:59] {Threei} take the equities course in nearest college, with full realization that it's absolutely useless for any practical intents and purposes
[10:59] {nemo} "dumb ass" is an exclusive term I only use with Les
[10:59] {Threei} learning to trade and making money?
[10:59] {Threei} stufy charts, setups and how to trade them
[11:00] {Threei} SPY generally reflect general market direction
[11:00] {Threei} some stocks follow it to the letter,
[11:00] {Threei} some lag,
[11:00] {Threei} some ignore it,
[11:00] {Threei} andf it may change from dasy to day
[11:01] {Threei} none of this is exact science,
[11:01] {andj} but is it a group of stocks or is it an average of their price or what?
[11:01] {Threei} never was, never will be, not supposed to be
[11:01] {Threei} SPY itself is an ETF
[11:02] {Threei} reflecting the movement of stocks comprising S$P500 index
[11:02] {andj} there you have it
[11:02] {andj} it's like a derivative of the actual stocks
[11:03] {Threei} out of two chunkcs of information I gave you,
[11:03] {Threei} one being what SPY is
[11:03] {nemo} yeah...go out to the Investopedia website, they explain all this stuff
[11:03] {Threei} and another being everything I said before that,
[11:03] {Threei} which one do you think matters for your bottom line? :)
[11:03] {andj} the chart stuff on how to trade
[11:03] {nemo} chart formations and their relationships
[11:04] {Threei} there you go
[11:04] {Threei} focus on thing that matters, the rest will fall in line
[11:04] {andj} just trying to put the puzzle together
[11:04] {andj} I'll do that. I trust you Vad....
[11:04] {andj} Nemo...not so sure
[11:04] {andj} just kidding.
[11:04] {Threei} there are useful bits and pieces of information in everything, but the onl,y efficient method of learning is focvusing on what really matters
[11:04] {andj} You know your stuff
[11:05] {nemo} wow lord Vad(er) brought another one to the dark side
[11:05] {Threei} yeah... it's nothing short of amazing how liberated people become when they conme to this realization
[11:05] {andj} and what matters is the chart patterns and learning how to trade them, correct?
[11:05] {Threei} that what you just said is the major thing that matters
[11:05] {nemo} errr....everything
[11:06] {andj} I see that now
[11:06] {Threei} not intellectualizing about oil peak, gold intrinsic value etc
[11:06] {Threei} all that stuff is fascinating dinner conversation
[11:06] {nemo} well, sacrificing virgins, and dead chickens do come in handy
[11:06] {Threei} well, for those who have no life
[11:06] {andj} that stuff's all garbage
[11:06] {Threei} but as far as trading goes - read charts
[11:07] {Threei} watch news,
[11:07] {andj} Christ nemo...my mental picture of you...I'm not sure what to think.
[11:07] {Threei} watch for charts saying something other than news says
[11:07] {nemo} hehehehe
[11:07] {Threei} lol
[11:07] {nemo} I make Beelzebub look like a choirboy
[11:07] {Threei} andj, the best way to keep your mental health is not to have any mental pivtures of nemo
[11:07] {andj} charts opposite the news?
[11:07] {Threei} yes
[11:07] {andj} that's impossible vad
[11:08] {andj} why opposite?
[11:08] {Threei} price-information divergence
[11:08] {nemo} Having said that, I do love bunny
[11:08] {andj} still don't know who or what bunny is
[11:08] {Threei} read this:
[11:08] {andj} what does price information divergence tell us?
[11:09] {Threei} http://blog.realitytrader.com/2008/10/information-price-divergence.html
[11:09] {Threei} http://blog.realitytrader.com/2008/04/traders-job.html
[11:09] {Threei} http://blog.realitytrader.com/2011/09/news-tradeem-or-fadeem.html
[11:09] {nemo} you on mibbit or mirc andj?
[11:09] {andj} mibbit
[11:09] {nemo} oh, nevermind
[11:10] {andj} i will read them. give me a few minutes.
[11:10] {andj} how can I look at your pics nemo
[11:12] {nemo} http://www.flickr.com/photos/44905396@N02/5372933578/
[11:12] {nemo} http://www.flickr.com/photos/44905396@N02/6055953507/in/photostream/
[11:15] {andj} and here i had some mental image about you with playboy bunnies:)
[11:15] {andj} guess I was off...
[11:15] {andj} nice bunny
[11:16] {nemo} nephew saved it from a cat when it was so small it could walk down a toilet paper roll tube
[11:16] {nemo} Now the frickin' thing climbs up into my boxspring and files it's teeth on the springs in the middle of the night
[11:16] {andj} i had one when i was a kid...they are good pets
[11:17] {andj} I have a 5 year old boy and a 6 year old girl.
[11:17] {andj} I only have time for a fish as a pet
[11:17] {nemo} she's a wild rabbit genetically, so not very cuddly
[11:17] {andj} and he barely makes it
[11:17] {nemo} pirahna I hope
[11:17] {andj} it looks wild
[11:18] {andj} well now i have a better mental picture
[11:18] {Threei} my feel is, we stay locked here for a while,
[11:18] {nemo} you have only a tiny window, hehehehehe
[11:18] {andj} and I still think highly of you nemo
[11:18] {Threei} or maybe climb a l,ittle
[11:18] {nemo} yeah, Vad
[11:18] {Threei} but breakouts are not like to work
[11:18] {nemo} oh
[11:19] {nemo} spy right on MPP
[11:19] {Threei} scalps within a range, maybe
[11:19] {Threei} smallish ones
[11:19] {Threei} CAT is probably olne of better candidates
[11:20] {Threei} simply because it has wider ranges todays
[11:20] {Threei} bounce off .50
[11:20] {Threei} got away
[11:20] {Threei} no chasing
[11:20] {Threei} let's see if returns there
[11:21] {Threei} Long Setup: CAT .60 break
[11:21] {Threei} if holding .50
[11:21] {Threei} half lot
[11:22] {Threei} 1:1
[11:24] {Threei} 1:2
[11:24] {Threei} my a$$ is out
[11:25] {Threei} relatively easy money
[11:25] {Threei} the pleasure of this particular one is:
[11:25] {andj} so just to be thorough did any index have something to do with that call?
[11:26] {Threei} it came from the general big picture situation
[11:26] {Threei} yes
[11:26] {Threei} look at the SPY chart and knowledge of how it behaves lately
[11:26] {Threei} gave an idea of what kind of market we are likely to have for the nearest time
[11:27] {Threei} and I started to look for certain kind of pla
[11:28] {andj} so spy is just in most people's head as the market leader or does it have some other specialized impact on the market?
[11:28] {nemo} think of it as the tide
[11:28] {nemo} stocks are boats on the water
[11:28] {nemo} tide rises usually boats rise
[11:28] {nemo} tide falls usually boats fall
[11:28] {nemo} look for the boats that sink as the tide rises for shorts
[11:29] {nemo} and boats that float in the air when the tide sinks for longs
[11:29] {andj} that's very handy analogy
[11:33] {Threei} Short Setup: CAT .50 break
[11:33] {Threei} half klot
[11:34] {Threei} if stays under .60
[11:34] {nemo} trend line at .70 or so
[11:35] {Threei} invalidated for now
[11:35] {Threei} .50 is important support, this setup may return
[11:36] {andj} so is .60 the evidence of resistance at that point?
[11:36] {Threei} was
[11:36] {Threei} until got broken
[11:37] {andj} so it was the point of resistance and now there is a new point of resistance?
[11:38] {Threei} not really, unless we look as far up as 107
[11:38] {Threei} with some minor resitance levels along the way
[11:38] {Threei} if CAT stays here for a min more, setup will reestablish itself
[11:39] {andj} so to revailidate that play you would be looking for more consolidation to form resistance?
[11:39] {Threei} right
[11:39] {Threei} bounced again
[11:40] {andj} so consolidation is important for safety?
[11:40] {Threei} consolidation is a part of this kind of setup
[11:41] {andj} oh
[11:41] {Threei} it forms levels of support and resistance that create trigger and stop points
[11:46] {Beau} .
[11:47] {Threei} CAT gave no consolidation for the setup
[11:47] {Threei} but .50 loss worked nonetheless
[11:47] {Threei} oh well
[11:49] {andj} I will look in 111 trades for setups that do and don't require consolidation...
[11:49] {andj} I need to make myself a cheat sheet with all those points on it.
[11:54] {thomcbell} mnst acts well in here
[12:06] {andj} So Vad...are there less opportunities in the afternoon or do you just slow down because you've already had several wins?
[12:09] {Threei} less readable opportunities
[12:10] {Threei} look how much narrower ranges become, movements are slower, volumes are less
[12:26] {andj} so you then spend a lot of time looking for opportunities and reading the news?
[12:29] {andj} is that right vad?
[12:30] {Threei} well
[12:30] {Threei} add sleeping, and yes, list will be comprehensive
[12:31] {dino} nbl sm l .50
[12:32] {andj} so you really have a nice, restful afternoon then?
[12:33] {Threei} shrug
[12:33] {Threei} deoends
[12:34] {andj} I ask because I'm trying to figure out what to do myself. I have the most free time after 12:00 PM eastern time.
[12:35] {rambler} SLW double top...
[12:38] {Threei} you have a lot of material to study, andj
[12:38] {Threei} I see no problem for you to keep youself busy
[12:39] {dino} panl hl l .77
[12:39] {andj} true
[12:40] {andj} can I print a copy of 111 trades...the java version is killing me.
[12:40] {andj} or flash version
[12:41] {Threei} nope... it's online only
[12:51] {andj} so would day trades be good in the afternoon?
[12:52] {Threei} if right setup presents itself, sure
[13:00] {andj} am I going to wake you up by asking too many questions?
[13:00] {Threei} no
[13:01] {Threei} I lead a lot of acivities while in coma
[13:01] {Threei} it will be just another one of them
[13:01] {rambler} Vad the multim tasker...lol
[13:08] {dino} panl stop -.34
[13:17] {Threei} trying to get a sense, will we get a breakdown or stay in the range
[13:20] {dino} mdco drop
[13:20] {dino} sm l .25
[13:21] {dino} out .59, +.34
[13:22] {Threei} instant gratification eh :)
[13:22] {dino} yeah
[13:28] {Threei} Long Setup: TZA .20 break half lot
[13:28] {Threei} if stays above .10
[13:30] {Threei} invalidated
[13:37] {dino} wow crr goes green
[13:39] {dino} meli sm l .33
[13:52] {dino} crr crrazy
[13:55] {dino} ipgp sm l .50
[14:00] {andj} So i'm reading the articles you sent earlier...
[14:01] {andj} How do I know which news is moving the market?
[14:01] {Threei} sometimes you don't
[14:02] {Threei} more often you get a sense of what's happening, from various sources
[14:02] {Threei} normally, when something significant happens, we post it here
[14:02] {andj} I still have TTN and I also have WSJ online
[14:03] {Threei} quite enough
[14:03] {Threei} it will fall in place by itself, as you collect more experience under your belt
[14:04] {Threei} TZA valid again
[14:04] {Threei} for today for instance...
[14:04] {Threei} if you went over routine set of sources, you could spot main market movers easily:
[14:04] {Threei} Greece PSI developments, not going too well and making traders nervous
[14:05] {Threei} and China economic slowdown
[14:05] {andj} I see it a little better now. From a macro perspective...
[14:06] {andj} tza at what level?
[14:07] {Threei} same setup
[14:07] {Threei} .20 break
[14:07] {Threei} if stays above .10
[14:10] {nemo} believe it or not, tna looking long here
[14:14] {Threei} could be, it looks like two-sided
[14:14] {nemo} too much chop, but looks like spy going to vwap
[14:26] {dino} bvsn drop
[14:29] {Threei} 1:1
[14:31] {Threei} anyone went for it?

[15:28] {Threei} JOY is down 17% in approx 5 trading days
[15:29] {Threei} tekll me there is no joke in there
[15:30] {Les} I like it's bounce potential here
[15:30] {nemo} wanna see bounce potential: DE
[15:30] {Threei} yeah, but there is 17% less joy in the market
[15:30] {nemo} hehehehehe
[15:30] {Threei} sorry, horrible pun, but I can't help it
[15:31] {Threei} my sense of humor is 14 years boy's level... on good days
[15:32] {Threei} andj, you took that TZA trade?
[15:32] {Threei} worked like charm
[15:33] {andj} I really wanted to but I missed it.
[15:33] {andj} I saw that it went well. I looked away for a minute and it was over.
[15:34] {andj} I got a few this morning
[15:34] {Threei} in such cases, look for second chance entry on pullback
[15:35] {Threei} TZA gave it
[15:35] {Threei} sometimes they just go, but often they return to pick you up
[15:36] {Threei} anyway, if you got a few today... starting to get first feel for how the game is played?
[15:36] {andj} yes
[15:36] {Threei} cool... I think I do too
[15:36] {andj} the picture is coming in a little clearer
[15:37] {andj} I think I will be able to look at the news without getting so frustrated as well
[15:37] {nemo} basically ignore it
[15:37] {Les} amen. I can't be frigged looking at market headlines
[15:38] {Les} what Vad's got to post is all we need
[15:38] {Les} speaking of which....
[15:38] {andj} I will need to be able to look multiple setups at one time.
[15:38] {Les} EU Announces Resumption of Talks with Iran
[15:38] {nemo} I would keep your information stream narrow if I were you
[15:38] {Les} I guess that guy was out of touch Vad
[15:38] {Les} What do they pay all these bureaucrats in Brussels for?
[15:39] {andj} me?
[15:39] {Threei} he thinks they have a year to resume talks Les
[15:39] {Les} I guess if he's getting paid for it...
[15:40] {Threei} I think he is either drunk, or never been sober
[15:40] {Threei} wait.. are those really two different options?
[15:40] {andj} Lots of alcoholics in this chat room.
[15:40] {nemo} wrong...alcoholics go to meetings
[15:40] {nemo} I'm a drunk
[15:40] {Threei} I am sober
[15:40] {nemo} you are a cretin
[15:41] {nemo} and all cretins are liars
[15:41] {Threei} I disagree
[15:41] {Les} I don't drink and trade anymore andj...
[15:41] {nemo} Ucretinian
[15:41] {andj} This is Vad's 12 step program so that you can work and drink from home.
[15:41] {Threei} 12? you think we can count that far?
[15:41] {Threei} our program is two steps
[15:41] {Threei} 1. buy
[15:41] {Threei} 2 sell
[15:41] {andj} Les I'd imagine that's a good idea
[15:41] {andj} 3. drink
[15:42] {Threei} not necessatry in that order
[15:42] {andj} You're going to have to delete this again vad.
[15:42] {Threei} no
[15:42] {Threei} let the world kno who I have to deal with
[15:43] {andj} you mean nemo?
[15:43] {dino} out gdot .00, +.35
[15:43] {Threei} including but not limited to
[15:43] {Threei} wtg dino
[15:43] {Les} PANL VWAP .80
[15:44] {dino} ok
[15:44] {dino} out nbl .81, +.31 took all day
[15:44] {Threei} oh boy
[15:44] {Threei} I long forgot you entered that one
[15:45] {Les} look at JOY. Full of it here. Nice bounce
[15:47] {dino} ioc spike
[15:48] {andj} Vad do you look at trade the news in the evening?
[15:48] {Threei} yes, if I am near computer
[15:48] {Threei} just to get general idea of what's happening
[15:48] {dino} panl out .84, +.39
[15:48] {andj} what are you looking for
[15:49] {dino} ax murderer market, "untrusting", so cutting them
[15:49] {Les} nj. I entered .51, dropped it on loss of .50 support
[15:49] {Threei} general news, like Europe or Asia
[15:49] {Threei} crisis... Greece...
[15:49] {Threei} all this jazz
[15:50] {andj} then price divergence the next day?
[15:50] {Threei} divergence or confirmation, whatever happens
[15:51] {Threei} it helps put price movements in context
[15:51] {andj} makes a lot of sense.
[15:51] {Threei} all news heandl,ines scream market is doomed,
[15:51] {Threei} yet price holds and slowly climbs up,
[15:52] {Threei} can you feel that naive news readers are being set up for slaughter?
[15:52] {Threei} and slaughtered they were over last few months if they tried to short and hold
[15:52] {andj} that stuff is usually the big guys manipulating the market right?
[15:52] {Threei} OK, giving you one more link
[15:52] {andj} cool

06[15:55] * Les slaps andj around with a sense of naivety
[15:55] {andj} don't hit too hard. I'm new at this.
[15:55] {dino} what does it matter what it is? just trade it
[15:55] {Threei} "Turn the machines back on!!"
[15:56] {Les} forget it. Just trying to press Vad's button
