Apr 03 2012

(Course on chart pattern recognition is available now: http://www.realitytrader.com/111trades.html  )


Somewhat hectic day with a lot of rinses, invalidations and little follow through. A few worked nicely in the morning and at the end of the day, with midday being mostly pain in the everywhere. Depending on what trades you've got and which you've missed, you'd be from slightly negative to flat for the day. 



Session Time: Tue Apr 03 00:00:00 2012
[08:54] {Threei}  - European shares were in negative territory for the second straight session ahead of US factory orders data due out in the NY morning. Trading is expected to be sideways for the remainder of the week as markets head into Easter holidays.

[13:35] {Threei}  or
[13:35] {_sniper} agree Nemo
[13:35] {Threei} Long Setup:  FAS  .50 break if stays above .35

[14:00] {sciborg} SPY tanking
[14:00] {Threei}  - Sees no need to ease further unless conditions worsen - The information reviewed at the March 13 meeting suggested that economic activity was expanding moderately. Labor market conditions continued to improve and the unemployment rate declined further, although it remained elevated. Overall consumer price inflation was relatively subdued in recent months. More recently, prices of crude oil and gasoline increased substantially. Measures of long-run inflation expectations remained stable
[14:01] {Threei}  this is it: - Sees no need to ease further unless conditions worsen
[14:01] {Threei}  market addicted to QE feels immediately sick
[14:04] {Threei}  meanwhile the really serious news:

[15:25] {Threei}  no more than 2
[15:25] {_pepiolas} nice...grazie
[15:25] {Threei}  and most often just one
[15:25] {Threei}  they move fast enough usually
[15:26] {_pepiolas} is good, so i risk like 100-150 bucks per trade...i like that
[15:26] {Threei}  right
[15:27] {Threei}  some slippage can occur of cpourse but that�s the reality of trading
[15:27] {Threei}  we avoid too thin stocks that can cause bad damage
