[09:10] {Beau} good morning all
[09:10] {Threei} OK... let's admit it... time to wake up
[09:10] {Threei} Beau :)
[09:11] {Threei} so, practically no reaction to this:
[09:11] {Threei} *(US) INITIAL JOBLESS CLAIMS: 387K V 383KE; CONTINUING CLAIMS: 3.299M V 3.278ME- Prior Initial Claims revised higher from 386K to 389K - Prior Continuing Claims higher from 3.278M to 3.299M - 4-week avg claims: 386.3K v 382.0K w/w
[09:11] {Threei} did market lose sensitivity to job numbers?
[09:12] {thomcbell} bad news no reaction = bullish
[09:13] {Threei} or,

[09:13] {Threei} other lineage of news is so influential that this one practically doesn't matter
[09:13] {Threei} daniel :)
[09:14] {Threei} on all the overnight hpp[la there was one important bit,
[09:14] {Threei} about Germany opposition coming close to agreeing on another EU rescue
[09:14] {Threei} and Spanish bonds retreated to about 6.50
[09:15] {Threei} However important job numbers are, that's not the focus of main worry right now... it's all about EU
[09:22] {dino} gm

[11:08] {Threei} new lows are coming
[11:09] {Threei} SPY loses support

[12:21] {Threei} now it works
[12:22] {nemo} one has to wonder, you're at lunch time on a down day, so things are going to get slower...does that make the likelihood of breaks lower, and buying support selling resistance a better idea

[12:36] {Threei} so, how long will it take these idiots to destroy Spain?

[12:37] {Threei} can't believe it... one beautiful country after another is getting bulldozed
[12:38] {Threei} by this unholy union of communist politicians and socialist bankers
[12:45] {_jackharry} Unfortunately Europe's political elite don't care. The Euro was a combination of a huge vanity project and a way of engineering a politically united europe by the back door by Europe's political elite. Unfortunately they have created a burning building with no exits and it is the people who were given no say in this project that are being burnt

[14:09] {nemo} By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher. - Socrates
[14:16] {Threei} look at SPY intraday,
[14:16] {Threei} and read this again:
[14:16] {Threei} [10:28] {Threei} this sloooow slide makes me think it's a strong trend
[14:16] {Threei} [10:28] {Threei} market can move like this for quite a while

[14:36] {Threei} nice bottom catch
[14:37] {Threei} OK SPY, you paused long enough to give hope to a new crop of bottom-fishers and lure them in
[14:37] {Threei} now drop sharply and kill them
[14:41] {Threei} no go
[14:41] {Threei} oh well... some days are not supposed to be repaired I guess
[14:52] {Threei} EU) Eurogroup is said to have informally agreed to use EFSF for Spain banking system bailout - financial press- Loans to be transferred to the ESM later.
[14:53] {Threei} yeah, that changes everything
[14:56] {thomcbell} another small sale bbby

[15:02] {nemo} iwm and spy could very well make a run here
[15:03] {Threei} or drop sharply...
[15:05] {Threei} this is what it often does when imitates attempt to bounce
[15:06] {nemo} IWM might set up right side of IH&S
[15:06] {nemo} having said that wpp on spy and s3 on iwm served as resistance
[15:12] {Threei} what do you know... this TZA stop is going to turn into rinse

[15:22] {Threei} privinding us with antry in the process
[15:23] {nemo} watch it, spy just hit s3 on the daily
[15:25] {Threei} Short Setup: FCX .10 break
[15:25] {_jackharry} 5 US banks will be downgraded by moodys- CNBC

[15:26] {_jackharry} yep
[15:26] {Threei} stop .16
[15:26] {Threei} keeping it tight
[15:30] {nemo} higher probability of shorts packing it in
[15:31] {Threei} with such tight stop willing to give it a chance,
[15:31] {Threei} and plan is:
