[09:39] {Threei} In today's testimony Bernanke is expected to deliver a dovish message on the recent economic data and again discuss some of the Fed's future easing options. He should reiterate the Fed's readiness to take new action if the data dictate it, though those who are hoping for a pre-commitment to QE3 today will likely be disappointed. He will also likely take the time to urge the Congressional committee to do its work to avoid the "fiscal cliff."

[11:37] {nemo} stop under .65
[11:37] {nemo} this is small too
[11:39] {nemo} oh well
[11:39] {nemo} trading against th market
[11:39] {nemo} figures
[11:48] {ese} Vad....I still don't get todays price action......I re read your blog as posted above and I know Bernackers is speaking but i'm confused......was it to pre price in his (as per usual) negative news to shake investors out or some other senario.....
[11:49] {Threei} I think you are overanalyzing it
[11:49] {Threei} it's widespread confusion that determines these days action
[11:50] {Threei} we have EU falling apart overall but more or less stabilized over last weeks,
[11:50] {Threei} we have fiscal cliff coming, but there is an election before that,
[11:51] {Threei} and Fed aruably acting as supporter of an incumbent,
[11:51] {Threei} thus lookjing for the best moment to deploy QE3 to achieve max political effect
[11:51] {Threei} we also have China slowdown happening
[11:52] {Threei} too many crosscurrents,
[11:52] {Threei} people are tired and confised
[11:52] {Threei} so we have what we have: slow drifting up and down
[11:52] {Threei} aimless and rudderless
[11:52] {dolores} he was saying also that they are not conventional tools and they should be careful
[11:52] {dolores} so is not magic
[11:53] {Threei} headline of this minute may prop us, headline of the next may send us down
[11:53] {dolores} VAD any comments GS?
[11:53] {nemo} and let's not forget the Mayan calendar
[11:53] {ese} normally to my recollection the mrkt is reasonably stable going into a Bernuthead speech and then tanks......today was interesting.....up then big tank before he speaks
[11:54] {dolores} they had the presentation ahed
[11:54] {dolores} ahead
[11:54] {Threei} GS is notiveably weaker than the market
[11:54] {ese} mayan calendar.......?...............lol
[11:54] {Threei} not sure if it indicates anything
[11:55] {Threei} forget that stuff ese, it doesn't work... chicken entrails, man, chicken entrails
[11:55] {Will49} If the world ends, no need to worry
[11:55] {Threei} the most reliable market indicator
[11:55] {dolores} ok thxs
[11:55] {Threei} Will... I have one worry
[11:56] {Will49} and?
[11:56] {ese} entrails eh.....well am always looking for an edge.......i'll give it a shot
[11:56] {Threei} if the world ends, I want to know exactly when, so I run out of money and all lines of credit that day
[11:56] {nemo} sacrificing virgins actually works the best, but there's the problem of supply and certain moral stickiness
[11:56] {Will49} Right on Vad. That's my retirement plan too
[11:56] {nemo} this is very bullish action
[11:56] {Threei} imagine all the pluses:
[11:57] {Threei} you get to enjoy the best money can delivefr not worrying of running out of it, sure,
[11:57] {Threei} but on top of that you have the satisfaction of sticking credit card issuers with bill
[11:57] {ese} yup will............i'm going out exhausted man..............only way to do it
[11:57] {Threei} and them not having time to do anything about that
[11:58] {ese} lol
[11:58] {Will49} what if half the population takes that route before year end?
[11:58] {Will49} Or...are they already doing that?
[11:58] {ese} definitely alot of plusses to that type of thinking
[11:58] {Threei} you mean the remainign half that still hasn't done that
[11:59] {Will49} Yes
[12:00] {nemo} wow, think we might be about to go verticle
[12:00] {Threei} oh boy
[12:00] {Threei} read this load of horse manure:
[12:00] {Threei} (EU) ECB'a Asmussen: EMU should have power to limit debt issuance and intervene in national policies and budget; deeper union will require shared sovereignty- Must fully use existing tools to force budget discipline. Decision makers must exert peer pressure on eachother. This lesson has not been learned entirely as we still see some slippage being allowed: "deadlines for the correction of excessive deficits are being relaxed; the corrective tools that are available even under the new procedures are simply not being used, as the cases of Spain and Cyprus in the recently conducted macroeconomic imbalance procedure illustrate." This needs to change. - Notes that the ECB will require arrangements to protect independence of monetary policy assuming it ultimately takes on the role as supervisor for EMU banks. - Markets must be shown that they should "underestimate the degree of political commitment to the single currency at your own risk." - Need to get the new framework right, even if it means we need to take more time.
[12:00] {ese} ya....what da heck is up................
[12:01] {nemo} market was strong before his speech, says he's ready to come to the economy's aid, couldn't sell the market below daiy S2, and there was a fair amount of volume down there...so, bringing it the other way
[12:02] {Threei} market just follows the road I laid out before opening:
[12:02] {Threei} 09:08] {Alert} Threei fade first, then bottoming out, slow reversal, then climb back to high and making new high
[12:02] {nemo} hate it when he does that
[12:02] {ese} ya
[12:02] {Threei} waiot, you'll hate the following even more
[12:02] {nemo} you're coming to visit?
[12:02] {Threei} what did I get in return for this?
[12:03] {ese} lol
[12:03] {Threei} nemo asking for 6 numbers
[12:03] {nemo} well?
[12:03] {Threei} hey, I usually visit with bottle of vodka in pocket... why would you hate that
[12:04] {dolores} CAT bounced nicely
[12:04] {nemo} if it fits in your pocket it's not much of a bottle
[12:04] {Threei} I ordered special pocket for 750 mm
[12:04] {Threei} ml
[12:06] {Threei} but back to horse manure:
[12:06] {ese} how far is this gonna go I wonder................
[12:06] {Threei} EMU should have power to ... intervene in national policies and budget;
[12:06] {Threei} wars were fought for lesser stuff
[12:06] {ese} "I wonder wonder who......ba du ba du......who wrote the book of loveeeeee"...............
[12:07] {Threei} this push for union will end in blood
[12:09] {nemo} spy weakening, iwm too

[12:18] {ese} 32% ?

[13:32] {Will49} maybe Reven doesn't have a keyboard
[13:32] {Will49} Raven

[13:33] {nemo} yeah, he pipes up now and then
[13:34] {ese} what time does oh great one speak.....or is it tomorrow

[13:36] {nemo} well it's almost that ime with tna

[13:38] {ese} i thought it was 2pm

[13:38] {dolores} I think he was supposed to talk today and tomorrow
[13:38] {ese} check my news feed
[13:38] {ese} well.........i'm certainly in tune today
[13:40] {nemo} damn, missed moss the second time through
[13:44] {ese} "Pessimistic Bernanke doesn’t commit to action....." Market Watch............I rest my case
[13:44] {scottie} teva .40 ?
[13:45] {Threei} I doubt it
[13:45] {scottie} ok
[13:45] {Threei} feels tired
[13:45] {nemo} think my stop goes to .39 now
[13:48] {nemo} oh mos
[13:52] {nemo} jbht should be a short if the market weakens, hasn't moved up with the market
[13:52] {nemo} we're coming into trend on spy and iwm, could be headed for another leg up though
[13:55] {nemo} out btw...and mos kept going
[14:09] {nemo} spy climing the trend line
[14:09] {scottie} dlb short ?
[14:10] {Threei} with trigger .25
[14:10] {Threei} but if goes above .35, forget it
[14:14] {dolores} IWM 79.95 is resistance?
[14:14] {Threei} not a very importsant one
[14:14] {Threei} 80 is right up there, and much stronger one
[14:15] {dolores} what would be the breakdown point?
[14:15] {nemo} marriage
[14:16] {Threei} .85
[14:16] {Threei} but you see SPY continuing consolidating close to breakout
[14:17] {Threei} it breaks 136.50, all short bets are off
[14:18] {Beau} iwm
[14:18] {nemo} things are getting hard to read
[14:18] {nemo} think higher probability of short
[14:19] {scottie} dlb went down too fast, missed it
[14:19] {Beau} sorry.
[14:20] {scottie} Vad, should I check for second entry
[14:20] {Threei} sure, it didn't go too far
[14:21] {scottie} in .24
[14:23] {Threei} beautifl
[14:23] {scottie} out .14 +.10
[14:23] {Threei} wtg
[14:23] {Threei} good spot, good execution
[14:24] {scottie} :)
[14:26] {Beau} gj scot
[14:27] {scottie} thanks Beau
[14:28] {nemo} clf short below .00 looks interesting
[14:28] {nemo} coal stock support is at 0.00
[14:36] {scottie} :s DLB
[14:36] {dolores} I can understand bernanke will do anything to help the economy
[14:37] {dolores} but he did not seem very happy to do another q3
[14:38] {dolores} he spoke of comunication , more of the last he did, i felt he was a bit reticent on Q3
[14:38] {Threei} my guess would be this dolores:
[14:39] {dolores} and not very likely congress will take his recommendatios seriously!!!
[14:39] {Threei} his problem is not sao much QE itself, he has little probl;em with that,
[14:39] {Threei} rather it's timing of it
[14:39] {Threei} do it too early, effect will diccipate before the election,
[14:40] {Threei} do it too close to election, crass politics is too obvious and may repel people
[14:40] {dolores} you think he cares about the election?
[14:40] {dolores} he will be pressed
[14:40] {dolores} ?
[14:40] {Threei} get it right, and it doesn't look overly political yet effect is still there
[14:40] {Threei} yes, he does
[14:40] {Threei} Romney expressed disdain about his policies openly
[14:41] {dolores} so he would like obama to win?
[14:41] {dolores} for him to stay?
[14:41] {Threei} he is keynesian, thus Obama is much better fit for him
[14:41] {Threei} I am pretty sure of it
[14:41] {dolores} any short?
[14:41] {Threei} Romney will never reappont him
[14:41] {Will49} is that because Obama is Kenyan? :)
[14:42] {dolores} ok
[14:42] {dolores} nemo what is the dow chart formation?
[14:42] {Threei} I am not sure how popular Keynes is in Kenya...
[14:43] {dolores} Is IWM chart a inverse cup and handle?
[14:43] {Threei} on what time frame?
[14:44] {dolores} 14.23 14.41
[14:45] {dolores} up we go again
[14:45] {nemo} indexes getting that look again...bears grabbing their ankles
[14:46] {nemo} hard to say Dolores, you have to go with the trend until it's not a trend
[14:46] {nemo} if you look on a 3 minute, looks like a consolidation
[14:47] {nemo} just above old resistance
[14:47] {nemo} you could play the short, but it would seem to me it's a 50/50 at best
[14:48] {nemo} also, what's your stop, and what's your potential reward
[14:48] {nemo} if it ain't better than 1:3, arguably not a good idea
[14:48] {dolores} not short now
[14:49] {nemo} then again, there's the ese school of trading
[14:49] {dolores} i was thinking iwm .93 with stop .97
[14:49] {dolores} for 1.2
[14:50] {dolores} but I am also waiting
[14:50] {dolores} you guys know better
[14:50] {nemo} o.k, the you're talking about .08 total range..is it worth it. You're probably gonna' get whacked for about 1.5 cents a share just to trade
[14:51] {nemo} between commissions and ecn fees
[14:52] {nemo} So, even if you're idea is right, is it worth it to make the trade?
[14:53] {nemo} Think about this too
[14:53] {nemo} Perhaps you're a cold blooded killer at heart, but...
[14:53] {nemo} Trades have a psychological price also
[14:54] {nemo} Is it worth the use of psychological capital for that trade?
[14:55] {nemo} see, spy looking north
[14:55] {nemo} IWM not following yet, but it rarely drops if spy is advancing
[14:55] {dolores} ok
[14:56] {dolores} looks pretty strong this market
[14:56] {scottie} aig short ?
[14:57] {scottie} after that bounce
[14:57] {dolores} thxs would have been stopped
[14:57] {nemo} ridiculously strong...expecting huge gap up tomorrow
[14:57] {nemo} We learn through pain and suffering...and thousands of hours of screen time ;-)
[14:57] {Will49} amen
[14:58] {nemo} Love Saint Augustine's quote "God sent only one son to earth without sin, none without suffering."
[14:59] {nemo} Or as a shaman buddy said at a presentation what the meaning of life is, he said, "Look, you're not here for a vacation!"
[14:59] {nemo} when asked what the meaning of life is
[14:59] {Will49} Yes...this is not a rehearsa
[14:59] {nemo} Me....
[14:59] {nemo} I'm thankful for alcohol
[15:00] {nemo} and bunny
[15:00] {nemo} my nephew...eh
[15:00] {Will49} simplify your life
[15:00] {nemo} frickin' teenager...pain in my ass
[15:01] {Will49} suffering...remember?
[15:01] {nemo} Yeah, along the line of...no good deed goes unpunished....or, the road to hell is paved with good intentions
[15:01] {Will49} what a philosoher
[15:02] {nemo} you have no eye deer
[15:02] {Will49} waht a speller

[15:18] {nemo} this guy's a nut job. glad he plays for us
[15:20] {Threei} there is something seriously disturbing in this below:
[15:20] {Threei} (IT) Sicily Pres Lombardo says the region's finances are sustainable; will give the PM Monti reassurances that Sicily finances are ok **NOTE: the comment comes after Italy PM Monti said earlier today that he is concerned about the prospects of a default in the Sicily region.
[15:21] {nemo} yeah, and he'd be dead if he said otherwise
[15:24] {Threei} 'SPY is glued to this flat line fir 3 hours
[15:31] {dolores} there goes my .73

[15:32] {nemo} Ese's fault
[15:39] {nemo} http://goo.gl/NnxuW
[15:41] {Will49} Good stuff nemo
[15:42] {nemo} yeah...the right wing outlets kinda twisted his words, but he really slighted business owners and builders
[15:43] {Threei} absolutely ridiculous statements by prsident
[15:43] {Will49} I'll have to read that again nemo
[15:43] {Threei} everyone has access to those roads and internet, why not everyone is successful businessman then?
[15:44] {nemo} I've seen unedited video, I understand what he was saying, but, he has no idea the blood sweat and tears the business owner goes through
[15:44] {dolores} ok guys see you tomorrow
[15:45] {Threei} and that same government that built themm, did it earn the money? ior got it frpm those same businesses and workers that create the jobs?
