[09:35] {Threei} stubborn seller at .55

[09:45] {Threei} (HU) Hungary PM Orban: Unclear when IMF discussions could begin but EU/IMF must drop any preconditions
[09:48] {Threei} Long Setup: TZA .25 break
[09:48] {Threei} stop .17
[09:49] {Threei} aggressive entry, play for SPY .30 break
[09:49] {Threei} 1:1
[09:49] {Threei} half out
[09:49] {Threei} should be more in it
[09:50] {Threei} stop .23
[09:53] {Threei} 1:2, 1/4 more out
[09:53] {Threei} stop .24 still
[09:53] {Threei} want to give it just a tad more breathing room than usual
[09:57] {Threei} wow

[09:57] {Threei} with .50 break long in mind

[09:59] {Threei} stop to .29
[10:02] {Threei} decisive moment
[10:02] {Threei} all out breakdown or bounce starts forming
[10:04] {Threei} here we go
[10:05] {Threei} stop tp .35
[10:05] {Threei} choking it now
[10:06] {Threei} stop to .39
[10:06] {Threei} and looking to exit into spike above .50
[10:08] {dptl} hal .50 short?
[10:08] {Threei} too narrow for my taste

[10:13] {Threei} closed TZA
[10:14] {nemo} can do uwm long too
[10:14] {Threei} 1:1
[10:15] {Threei} I am not sure I understand UWM
[10:15] {Threei} is it 2x while IWM is 3x?
[10:15] {nemo} yes 2x, I trade tza/tna uwm off of IWM anyway
[10:15] {nemo} like upro off of spy
[10:15] {Threei} why is it down the same amount as IWM then?
[10:16] {nemo} they are just leveraged versions of iwm, look at difference in stock price.
[10:16] {nemo} proportionally, it's greater
[10:16] {Threei} yes, it's mismatch between price and magnitude of movement that puzzles me
[10:16] {nemo} iwm 78, uwm 39
[10:17] {nemo} shouldn't, look at the price difference in the issue
[10:17] {Threei} it should be down about 80 cent to a buck
[10:17] {nemo} remember, tna did a 2:1 split last spring, that's why it's close to iwm
[10:17] {Threei} not 1.70
[10:17] {Threei} ok, whatever
[10:17] {nemo} well, the leverage doesn't match perfectly
[10:17] {Threei} leaving it to academics
[10:26] {nemo} LVS?
[10:27] {Threei} no clear setup
[10:28] {dino} hig l .78

[11:06] {Les} oh crap right. using 1 min settings
[11:07] {Threei} lol
[11:07] {Les} just flipped the time frame over

[11:12] {Threei} both
[11:12] {Les} stochastics suggesting a pullback here
[11:12] {Threei} but breakdown wins my "like"
[11:12] {Les} if it stops
[11:13] {Threei} if it invalidates by breaking .60, look for another area to short between .70 and .80
[11:15] {dino} meli smr l .25
[11:19] {ese} thats a nice lookin chart chkp
[11:20] {dino} yes, i ran stop too tight
[11:26] {Threei} Long Setup: TZA .30 break
[11:26] {Les} .62 was fcx top. was tempted...
[11:27] {Threei} if stays above .25
[11:28] {Les} RIG .20 b/d?
[11:29] {scottie} Iz TZA still valid?
[11:29] {Les} or two way?
[11:30] {Threei} I like TZA still
[11:30] {Threei} RIG more looks like long
[11:31] {dino} dhi gap fill
[11:36] {Threei} RIG works on a long side if you took it
[11:38] {Les} missed it frikin around with ski hire that needs returning. Frikin end of Easter holidays...
[11:39] {Les} TNA
[11:39] {Les} 15 min says up

[12:30] {Threei} volume all but disappeared
[12:30] {nemo} everything grinding up, they couldn't break the month lows so the shorts are getting out of Dodge
[12:33] {andj} Why is it that TNA and TZA are so correlated to SPY?
[12:33] {nemo} time to beam us up scottie
[12:33] {nemo} andj, they are DIRECTLY related to IWM
[12:33] {Les} IWM andj, IWM...
[12:33] {scottie} damn teleporter doesn't work
[12:34] {nemo} send a frickin' shuttle
[12:34] {scottie} Out of gas
[12:35] {nemo} you're fired
[12:35] {nemo} frickin' don't use gas
[12:35] {nemo} dilithium crystals you moron
[12:36] {scottie} Oh, that's why it doesn't work. Thanks for the tip nemo
[12:36] {nemo} I need a Romulian disrupter
[12:37] {dino} i remember that episode, "scottie, i need warp power in 3 minutes or you're fired"
[12:37] {Threei} next thing to come up is chronoclastic incundibulum
[12:38] {scottie} If it were that easy in real life!!
[12:38] {nemo} I'm heading for the event horizon
[12:39] {Threei} huh... there are people in ECB that understand AND speak the truth
[12:39] {Threei} (EU) ECB's Weidmann: Inflation may be rising faster than predicted by the IMF; markets may be overestimating sovereign risks at this point- ECB's firepower is not unlimited. - Reiterates that monetary policy can only buy more time, not solve the crisis. - Warns that nations cannot borrow their way out of debt. - More clarity is needed on the direction to be taken by monetary union. - No nuclear option exists on the European firewalls
[12:39] {Threei} who knew
[12:39] {scottie} Anyone can tell me why the little green and blue icons on the right
[12:40] {nemo} Vad, we were having a perfectly good, irrelevant conversation, and you have to interrupt with real life...wtf!
[12:40] {Threei} sorry nemo
[12:40] {Threei} scottie... where?
[12:40] {nemo} the shuttle vad
[12:40] {scottie} On the right hand side of the chat screen, with the names
[12:41] {nemo} oh, mibbet
[12:41] {Threei} sorry, no idea... I don't use mibbit
[12:41] {Les} looking for TZA setup here
[12:42] {Les} DB maybe?
[12:42] {Threei} if it pulls back to about 20.05, certainly
[12:44] {scottie} Thought we all were on mibbit.
[12:44] {scottie} I go there by defoult when I sign in.
[12:44] {Threei} some use mirc
[12:44] {nemo} only the plebes
[12:44] {scottie} default
[12:46] {nemo} lvs short?
[12:46] {nemo} yep, nevermind
[12:47] {Threei} Short Setup: RIG .60 break
[12:47] {Threei} just a scalp most likely
[12:48] {Les} MACD almost lined up multi time frame for RIG short. Could be for more than scalp
[12:49] {Les} watching .46 half pivot support
[12:51] {Threei} I am out
[12:51] {Les} 3/4 out
[12:51] {Threei} if you pertial, go by the book
[12:51] {Threei} partial too
[12:52] {Les} greed is partialed by fear - 3/4 off was the trade off :)
[12:52] {nemo} these are important levels on both spy and iwm
[12:53] {Threei} this is very good approach Les
[12:53] {Threei} I mean not exact 3/4 or whatever, but the general idea:
[12:54] {Threei} here is standard A, here is standard B,
[12:54] {Threei} you are not confident which of them is applicable - take the safest route with some room for potential still
[12:54] {Threei} 3/4 from standard A, 1/4 from B
[12:55] {Threei} secure most of profits, see if can squeeze more from the leftover
[12:55] {Les} Yeh watched myself quit too early too many times, while your trades ride off to 1/3
[12:57] {Les} stop to .56
[12:58] {Les} out
[12:59] {Les} one more bounce and it might be a great short setup
[13:09] {nemo} iwm spy are setting up long, whether they go there, I'
[13:09] {nemo} m not sure
[13:11] {dptl} dhi db?
[13:12] {dino} maybe. good report/guidance
[13:12] {Threei} (GR) Germany IFO director Sinn reiterates it is unlikely Greece will regain competitiveness while remaining within the Eurozone **REMINDER 2/17: 02/17 07:45:24 : (DE) German IFO's Sinn: Reiterates view that it is in Greece's interest to leave the EMU; no way that Greece can become competitive in the euro zone
[13:13] {Threei} I think it's a DBI rather than DB
[13:13] {dptl} k
[13:25] {nemo} boy, they're smacking every break
[13:35] {Threei} Short Setup: DHI 15 break
[13:35] {dino} fire sm l .00
[13:40] {scottie} What is the stop on DHI
[13:40] {nemo} .05 for scalpers. 10 for daytraders
[13:41] {nemo} fcx gonna close the gap
[13:45] {Les} TZA getting interesting
[13:46] {nemo} I'd say cree long here but market too week
[13:49] {dino} chkp sm l .95
[13:52] {nemo} ride that one dino
[13:53] {dino} chkp to .48
[13:54] {Threei} half out DHI
[13:54] {dino} to .55
[13:54] {Threei} protect in case SPY double-bottoms here
[13:54] {dino} to .65
[13:55] {nemo} mmmhhh...ctsh long here?
[13:55] {dino} out chkp .75, +.80
[14:09] {dino} gj dhi vad
[14:09] {Threei} :)
[14:09] {Threei} dptl's find actually
[14:10] {dino} i was stopped long earlier, let fundys interfere w/tape read
[14:11] {Threei} there is a good reason none of can even spell "fundamentals" (had to copy and paste it)
[14:13] {dino} fire to .40
[14:15] {dino} to .50
[14:16] {dino} out +.49
[14:17] {dino} 12849 dji gap filled
[14:19] {dino} rally
[14:20] {dino} 07 green and we are spiking
[14:20] {Threei} I see no news
[14:21] {dino} i just see 25 scrolling flashes of green
[14:31] {Les} db tza?
[14:33] {Threei} hard to tell
[14:33] {Threei} waiting for something more clearly defined
[14:43] {Threei} Long Setup: TZA 20 break
[14:43] {Threei} if holds .90
[14:46] {andj} .
[14:48] {Threei} come on TZA, do a bit gooder than this
[14:56] {Threei} stop to .94
[14:59] {Threei} half out
[14:59] {dino} mack drop
[15:00] {Threei} stop .99
[15:01] {Threei} scottie... I suspect it's for your first day... market decided to greet you qith the easiest profits possible
[15:02] {scottie} 5 winners out of 7 trades.
[15:02] {scottie} thanks a lot
[15:02] {Threei} not too shabby
[15:02] {scottie} I'm just scalping for the moment. Need to build confidence
[15:05] {andj} Yea thanks Vad...
[15:05] {Threei} welcome guys
[15:05] {Threei} today we are a windshield
[15:13] {Les} new TZA setup if we're all out?
[15:13] {Threei} half is still here
[15:13] {Threei} never hit either stop or 1:2
[15:14] {Les} I was already in .96 when you made your call. Forgot to take off .05 sell order
[15:15] {Les} looks like no 2nd entry. mtf MACD negative crossover
[15:20] {scottie} When you put your stop at .99 do you trigger when the bid is at .99 or do you wait until there is a transaction at .99
[15:22] {Threei} print at .99
[15:34] {Les} time for an LVS reversal setup here?
[15:34] {Threei} hmmm
[15:35] {Threei} no setup that I see
[15:35] {Les} s2 is .93
[15:36] {Les} no, no setup. Just LVS getting ahead of itself. WYNN is stuck under VWAP, which for LVS is .44
[15:37] {Threei} let's see if gives us double top
[15:47] {Les} c u's tomorrow
[15:55] {Threei} ok guys, thank you all
[15:55] {Threei} have a great evening, see you tomorrow
[15:55] {dptl} gn
[15:55] {scottie} thanks, see you tomorrow
[15:56] {dino} sprd spike
