[07:48] {nemo} Folks...I did a blog entry about yesterday's action
[08:50] {Threei} (US) Moody's issues update on US Sovereign ratings: Budget negotiations are key to rating direction
[08:50] {Threei} - Budget negotiations during the 2013 Congressional legislative session will likely determine the direction of the US government's Aaa rating and negative outlook, says Moody's Investors Service in the report "Update of the Outlook for the US Government Debt Rating. If those negotiations lead to specific policies that produce a stabilization and then downward trend in the ratio of federal debt to GDP over the medium term, the rating will likely be affirmed and the outlook returned to stable.
[08:51] {Threei} - Moody's views the maintenance of the Aaa with a negative outlook into 2014 as unlikely. The only scenario that would likely lead to its temporary maintenance would be if the method adopted to achieve debt stabilization involved a large, immediate fiscal shock--such as would occur if the so-called "fiscal cliff" actually materialized--which could lead to instability. Moody's would then need evidence that the economy could rebound from the shock before it would consider returning to a stable outlook.
[08:53] {nemo} Hey Vad...that lecture is going to be videod, or aviod mpegiod. Alex wants it...go figure

[09:18] {RonS} wow...unreal...JPM on the new iPhone: The new iPhone sales could boost GDP by $3.2 billion in the fourth quarter, or $12.8 billion at an annual rate. That is an increase of 0.33 percentage point in the annualized rate of GDP growth. It could be even higher, he says. Even a third of a percentage point would limit the risk the economy would grow more slowly th
[09:19] {RonS} grow more slowly than J.P. Morgan's fourth-quarter growth projection of 2%

[09:53] {nemo} Range run
[09:53] {Threei} everyone tries to frontrun tomorrow's German court
[09:53] {nemo} IWM bottomed yesterday at the close at MR1, bought support going to resistance
[09:54] {nemo} Financials closed just off MR1
[09:55] {nemo} also SPY closed just above price and Semesterly support, there were alot of significant levels at which price action closed yesterday
[09:55] {nemo} I posted it this morning
[09:58] {ese} lots of things confounding me these days.......not sure why that German court decision should have that much of an effect on the market.........it's pretty much a done deal anyway
[09:59] {Threei} well, imagine what happens if they say no
[09:59] {Threei} my bet is, -500 points DJI, probably more
[10:00] {ese} i guess.........ya gota figure though that they will stay polically neutral don't ya think..........
[10:00] {robbers} Third option: I think there's an appeal process that'll delay the final decision. Euro never met a can they didn't want to kick further down the road.
[10:01] {Threei} if they do, they judge by purely constitutional motives
[10:01] {ese} lol
[10:01] {dino} they should use rule of law ese, but most likely will not
[10:01] {ese} ain't that the truth
[10:01] {Threei} are you that confident that ECB bind buying is constitutional by German law?
[10:01] {dolores} hello I am late

[11:18] {goryl} Vad, or any of the seasoned veterans here, being a newbie, what should I focus on in order to build my analytical skills. Obviously, Vad's trades are phenomenal but i want to build my confidence. Any words of wisdom?:) What should i do for the first few months etc..
[11:18] {Threei} IMO, don't overcomplicate or overanalyze it,
[11:19] {goryl} I know, that's my problem:)
[11:19] {Threei} watch every tradem recognize every setup, make sureyou undrstand reason for a trade,
[11:19] {Threei} and in a while you'll start seeing them
[11:19] {Threei} this is how it happens, folks follow the trades and internalize the patterns,
[11:19] {Threei} and in a few months I see them starting spotting trades on their own
[11:21] {dino} keep it simple goryl. my system is extremely basic
[11:22] {dolores} goryl I would advice read the whole website and listen to the interview
[11:23] {dolores} and study the videos
[11:23] {Threei} and drink
[11:23] {dolores} explaining the diferent set ups and trades
[11:23] {goryl} :) i got that covered
[11:23] {Threei} I mean, keep yourself hydrated
[11:23] {Threei} :)
[11:26] {nemo} GS just keeps going up
[11:27] {goryl} i've read 111 trades twice and watched "How to Scalp.." videos so i'm pretty familiar with the setups.
[11:28] {Threei} I need to go over all that stuff too... people say it's good
[11:29] {dolores} LLY short?
[11:29] {dolores} .60?
[11:30] {Threei} market is so stubbornly strong, I am hesitant to short
[11:30] {dolores} ok
[11:30] {nemo} I don't see weakness yet
[11:41] {nemo} we haven't closed the 15 minute bar yet, but spxu might be worth a small starter position here
[11:42] {dptl} pay .50 short?
[11:42] {nemo} yep
