[09:27] {ese} too bad i didn't hold onto Rio until this morning
[09:28] {Threei} - Bank of Spain (BOS) asked auditors to delay their reports in order to conduct a more thorough study. The central bank asked the four auditors to delay their reports until after the summer instead of by July 31st
[09:28] {Threei} I guess to give them time to admire the bank's strength properly

[09:50] {Threei} wait... you don't have "sell at the high indicated in tomorrow's WSJ" button?
[09:50] {Threei} costs a bit extra but...
[09:50] {scottie} I'm missing that one lol
[09:51] {Beau} is that better than the "sell too soon" button on my $2.95 comp?
[09:51] {Threei} much... ask cc_8 for it
[09:52] {Threei} no news for this spike that I see
[09:53] {nemo} when spy got above 135 it broke MPP, which was above the volume vacuum, when it held it, buy programs went off

[10:03] {Threei} not acceptable eh
[10:03] {Threei} you tell them, Hollande
[10:04] {Threei} see what I meant calling JCP treacherous?
[10:04] {Threei} 30 cents dump out of nowhere
[10:05] {thomcbell} jcp feels like it will be bankrupt
[10:05] {nemo} retailers are the weakest stocks right now besides gold and goldminers

[10:17] {Threei} it comes and goes in waves, depending on the degree of market nervousness
[10:18] {ese} i guess eh........
[10:18] {Threei} any time EU is closer to falling apart it oncreases... every time they kick the can down the road once again, it ebbs
[10:18] {Threei} remember fall of 2008?

[11:25] {scottie} lol
[11:25] {nemo} I worry about bunny when she goes out at night
[11:26] {Threei} as any caring father should...
[11:39] {scottie} LMT .38 stop .26?
[11:40] {Threei} a bit too wide... I'd prefer aggressive entry
[11:40] {scottie} in .35
[11:40] {Threei} and smaller shares
[11:40] {Threei} volatile one
[11:43] {cipher} scalped lmt thx scottie

[11:44] {scottie} thanks Vad
[11:44] {Beau} well done s
[11:45] {scottie} thanks Beau
[11:45] {Threei} so frikin rewarding to see newer guys getting it down
[11:46] {Threei} a month ago, were you able to find this kind of setups?
[11:46] {scottie} no way
[11:46] {Threei} and execute it cleanly and confidently
[11:46] {Threei} that's real progress before our very eyes
[11:48] {scottie} sold too soon
[11:48] {dino} part of the game
[11:53] {Threei} my analogy catches up:
[11:53] {Threei} QE Addicts Send Equities Higher Ahead of FOMC Fix
[12:00] {Threei} Scott Rasmussen ?@RasmussenPoll
[12:00] {Threei} Daily Tracking: #Romney: 48%, #Obama: 44%
[12:03] {dino} good
[12:07] {Beau} worry about tea party/Ron Paul types in Congress with Romney.
[12:10] {nemo} having said that the Democrats and Republicans have done a wonderful job
[12:10] {nemo} or is that Democans and Republicrats
[12:11] {nemo} They both want welfare for their constituents and don't want to pay the bills
[12:12] {dino} anything better than obam-ination
[12:12] {thomcbell} qcom a short candidate next time there is weakness
[12:12] {thomcbell} a grudging participant
[12:12] {Threei} that was just my thought... whatever we get is not likely to be anything even close to great, but whatever it is, it can't be worse than what we have now
[12:12] {thomcbell} in upmove
[12:13] {nemo} wait until the states blow up
[12:14] {nemo} Here in Mass. legislators want to install a per mile driven charge
[12:15] {dino} isn't that basically a gasoline tax
[12:15] {nemo} no GPS based. whack you for every mile you drive
[12:16] {nemo} they could also do it through yearly inspection because your odometer reading is recorded then
[12:16] {nemo} average driver 14, 800 miles a year
[12:17] {dino} soon they will tax you to breath
[12:17] {nemo} you'll have a methane guage stuck in your ass too
[12:17] {nemo} guage
[12:17] {thomcbell} ice cream tax - pork fat tax
[12:18] {nemo} Have huge union pension issues in every state
[12:18] {nemo} one thing nice about this job
[12:18] {nemo} only need an internet connection
[12:18] {dino} yeah
[12:18] {nemo} Think I'll move out to Idaho with the White Supremacists
[12:19] {Threei} I am weighing Antractica with penguins
[12:19] {nemo} Town I live in is nice, but city next to us gone to hell
[12:19] {nemo} My grandfather was Chief of Police there in the 50's and 60's
[12:20] {Beau} come with us to Panama
[12:20] {nemo} My grandmother was dying in '95, I'm standing outside the house-frickin' drive by shooting 4 houses down
[12:20] {dino} town i'm in fine, but scranton/wilkes-barre (30 miles away) is getting bad. lots of drug shootings / stabbings every week
[12:22] {nemo} Yeah, alot of subhumans
[12:22] {scottie} I live in Quebec City and all's quiet around here
[12:22] {nemo} shut up scottie
[12:22] {dptl} lol
[12:22] {dino} lol
[12:22] {scottie} You come here and tell me that
[12:23] {nemo} We'll box you up and send you to France
[12:23] {thomcbell} lvs short setup here Vad - 46.30 break?
[12:23] {scottie} no please
[12:25] {Threei} probably tbell...
[12:25] {Threei} a little bit hesitant to short yet
[12:25] {nemo} Scottie...you don't want me to come there...I enjoy stuff like that, it was a former profession of mine
[12:25] {Threei} but chart does form the setup
[12:25] {thomcbell} looks like a waste of time while the firehose is on
[12:26] {nemo} I think we don't get any major pullbacks until Bernanke speaks tomorrow...I think we actually go higher and get the QPP on SPY and maybe on IWM
[12:33] {nemo} db iwm
[12:37] {dino} db?
[12:37] {nemo} double bottom, but it let go
[12:37] {dino} ok, thought thats what you meant, but i didn't see that
[12:38] {nemo} Now, if I had something like, "Les is a DB," that's an entirely different meaning.
[12:38] {dino} looks like slow rollover to me
[12:38] {Threei} I'll be back in 30-40 min guys... nothing much is likely happen meanwhile anway
[12:38] {nemo} weekly R1 is at 78.46
[12:39] {nemo} this is 61.8 retrace of recent up move
[12:40] {nemo} on IWM
[12:49] {nemo} It would be so perfectly aggravating for spy to go for the Quarterly Pivot today...It has to test 136...just too damn close. I wonder how many buy stops are just above that?
[12:54] {cipher} cat l .03
[12:55] {nemo} this should be the start
[12:57] {cipher} out cat .16
[12:58] {nemo} why'd you get out so soon cipher?
[12:58] {dino} gj
[12:58] {cipher} gut feel
[12:58] {dino} oh, then gf
[12:59] {nemo} no resistance until .40 though, if it holds .00 good risk
[13:08] {cipher} aapl l .50
[13:16] {cipher} out aapl .20 +.70
[13:17] {Beau} excellent cipher
[13:17] {cipher} ty
[13:17] {cipher} this felt more like a long term investment
[13:22] {dino} gj/gf
[13:28] {Threei} back
[13:34] {cipher} cat s .60
[13:35] {cipher} stopped .70 -.10
[13:54] {Threei} Long Setup: FAZ .50 break
[14:06] {nemo} think spy still has to get to the .45 area
[14:12] {scottie} target?
[14:12] {Threei} 1:2 at most
[14:17] {dino} sxci drop
[14:20] {cipher} +. 45 sxci thank you sir!
[14:20] {Threei} (EU) European minister: France would only agree to deeper EU integration if agreement on growth measures is reached first - financial press
[14:22] {dino} gj cipher
[14:23] {Threei} they are totally lost:
[14:23] {Threei} (EU) German Chancellor Merkel said to have indicated to G20 leaders that she is ready to support allowing euro zone firewall funds to purchase govt bonds in troubled nations - UK Guardian (update)- Would be a shift in stance by Germany which has previously opposed using the EFSF to lend directly to troubled euzo zone countries. - Merkel said to have told Obama of the plan on the sidelines of the G20, prompting him to cancel bilateral meetings with other European officials (canceled a meeting with Monti). - The article does not cite any sources. }
[14:23] {Threei} **NOTE: the article does not mention how the scheme would overcome the legal and technical hurdles it would face or whether it would include an expansion of the firewall funds in order to accommodate the needs of Spain and Italy.
[14:25] {Threei} what does it solve?
[14:26] {Threei} they buy their bonds... in a few months money is spent, what's next?
[14:26] {Threei} 1:1 FAZ
[14:28] {Threei} per some estimations, 64-million apartments in China are empty
[14:30] {Threei} 1:2
[14:30] {Threei} me put
[14:30] {Threei} out
[14:31] {scottie} Sold at .61 ty
[14:31] {Threei} (EU) Germany Govt official comments there was no discussion at G20 about plan to use bailout backstop funds to purchase Govt bonds of crisis hit member states
[14:31] {nemo} now that's a perfect example of talking out your ass
[14:32] {Threei} no kidding
[14:32] {Threei} if my math is correct, that's 5 for 7
[14:32] {dino} out faz +.20 ty vad
[14:33] {Threei} :)
[14:33] {Threei} guys
[14:33] {Threei} look at the volume spike on this drop
[14:33] {nemo} take your socks off to be sure
[14:34] {Threei} this is very telling
[14:34] {Threei} this climb is very careful, serious money keeps finger on sell button at all times
[14:35] {Threei} any hint of things not going the EU way, this market will drop very far and very fast
[14:36] {Threei} and nemo... you are missing the point
[14:37] {Threei} what difference socks would make if I can count to 10, be it fingers or toes
[14:37] {Threei} and I am shaky after 6
[14:38] {nemo} I was giving you the benefit of the doubt...I just don't do "nice" well
[14:38] {Threei} don't you dare doubt my inability to count that far
[14:39] {nemo} It would probably be better to try counting after you've been drinking heavily, then you could count to 40
06[14:39] * Threei slaps nemo around a bit with a large abacus
[14:40] {cc_8} that was awesome
[14:40] {nemo} another in the peanut gallery heard from
[14:40] {nemo} Mmmmhhhh...will they let me ship guns to Canada?
[14:41] {Threei} especially part where all the beads scatterd all over the floor
[14:41] {Threei} hmmm
[14:41] {Threei} no
[14:41] {nemo} oh...
[14:42] {nemo} swords?
[14:42] {Threei} in checked baggage, I guess
[14:42] {nemo} fine...a little bit messy, but....
[14:43] {Threei} that should do fine... I always dreamt to die in a sword fight
[14:43] {nemo} no, was thinking of "+cc-8"
[14:43] {Threei} with black patch over one eye
[14:43] {cipher} tza l.25
[14:43] {nemo} mmmhhhh...cc 8, does that mean 8 cc is his cranial capacity?

[14:45] {nemo} cipher had a beautiful setup in CAT earlier, but pulled out
