01[10:01] {Threei}  and here we go
01[10:02] {Threei}  if loses .80, should go to .60 in a hurry
01[10:03] {Threei}  let's trail GDX to .61
01[10:04] {Threei}  SPY started convulsive moves; while my conviction is the same, it's easy to get caught in sharp backlash
01[10:05] {Threei}  target 1:3
01[10:05] {Threei}  1:1
01[10:06] {Threei}  play by the book
[10:06] {robbers} Nice calls on HP and GDX.
01[10:06] {Threei}  this is not a creative trade, rather cookie-cutter

[11:15] {nemo} not giving it much room
[11:15] {Les} in .27 half out
[11:15] {nemo} partialing here
01[11:16] {Threei}  - Trading has been choppy on both sides of the Atlantic as traders contend with multiple impactful stories this morning. In Europe, eurozone finance ministers are meeting this morning to discuss unfreezing �40B in aid payments for Greece. There are obviously hopes for a positive outcome, although dissenting voices have been heard, most notably from Finland. Moodys downgrade of France's sovereign rating, to AA1 from AAA, has had a limited impact. The French government shrugged off the move, although it has possibly delayed issuance of a three-year EFSF bond. In Israel, there is talk that the Netanyahu government is ready to sign a temporary ceasefire with Hamas as soon as tonight. In the US, there is an emerging consensus that the Democrats will likely force their approach to the Bush tax cuts on the House GOP.
01[11:17] {Threei}  too bad ese is not here, he would be happy to see this:
01[11:17] {Threei}  Another month, another excellent housing data point: the October housing starts reading hit its highest level since July 2008. Single-family home construction actually fell very slightly m/m, while apartment construction rose 10% m/m.
[11:18] {Les} quarter .47
[11:19] {nemo} watchint to see if finnies pop here, that'll bring the spy and IWM with it
01[11:19] {Threei}  good one Les
[11:19] {Les} nemo's call
01[11:19] {Threei}  and to think, you owe it to nemo...
[11:19] {nemo} Yeah, I'm just chopped nephrotic tissue
01[11:20] {Threei}  almost takes all the pleasure out of it {G}
[11:20] {Les} :)
[11:20] {robbers} Vad, on you FB page, is there a specific place for "new" photos?
[11:21] {nemo} or hepatic tissue, to be more accurate
[11:21] {nemo} 2n'd partial here

[11:22] {dino} out clf .74, +.24
[11:23] {nemo} or if finnies drop .75ish
[11:23] {nemo} fas, to be specific
01[11:23] {Threei}  actuallym this link will obviously be easier to navigate: http://www.facebook.com/vadym.graifer/photos_stream
[11:24] {robbers} Vad, what's the rough translation on the kitty cat poster?
01[11:24] {Threei}  click on any of the shots, and then use arrows
01[11:25] {Threei}  Only extremely busy one can truly enjoy lazy time
01[11:25] {Threei}  http://goo.gl/ujQOe
[11:25] {nemo} stop .60ish
[11:25] {robbers} Oh, so a message for us traders?
01[11:25] {Threei}  hehe
01[11:26] {Threei}  wow TNA
[11:26] {dino} ravn hl l .00
[11:26] {nemo} I don't leave until it gives me a reason
[11:26] {nemo} stop .65ish
[11:27] {Les} :(
[11:27] {nemo} young bull runs down, old bull walks down
[11:27] {Les} 1:5 in my book
01[11:27] {Threei}  Les, to capture this kind just trail last part
01[11:28] {Threei}  dopn't take it off the table until it either hits trailing stop or spikes vertically
[11:28] {Les} so trailing stop is with each partial I lift stop to prior partial?
01[11:28] {Threei}  just under
[11:28] {Les} k
01[11:29] {Threei}  and then last part you just trail
[11:29] {nemo} stop to .70ish
01[11:29] {Threei}  much like nemo does right now
[11:29] {Les} yeh
[11:29] {nemo} o.k. getting iffy here
01[11:29] {Threei}  when it spikes vertically, eother dump it or choke it
01[11:29] {Threei}  by tightening the trail
01[11:29] {Threei}  i.e., 5 cents instead of 10
01[11:30] {Threei}  you can see sometimes dino doing this
[11:30] {nemo} might see it consolidate around here for an afternoon break
[11:30] {Les} y
01[11:30] {Threei}  as stock nears his ultimate target his trails stop much closer
01[11:30] {Threei}  he trails
[11:30] {Les} getting there sensei
[11:30] {Les} slowly but surely
[11:31] {nemo} what am I frickin' animal on a Nature show?
01[11:31] {Threei}  slowly is good
[11:31] {Les} sorry Nemo
[11:31] {Les} only one boss in the house
01[11:31] {Threei}  lessons learned slowly sit with you forever
[11:31] {nemo} yeah, the ones that leave scars
01[11:31] {Threei}  rapidly adopted knowledge tends to dissipate easily
01[11:32] {Threei}  no time for true internalizing
[11:32] {nemo} yeah need to imbed it in more tissue, especially as I drink braincells away
[11:32] {nemo} which reminds me...
[11:35] {nemo} Hey Sheila, see how I looked at IWM SPY and the finnies for that one?
[11:36] {Les} god no I'm sitting fat dumb and happy rotating on my finger
[11:36] {Les} why would I be looking at charts for?
[11:36] {Les} :P
[11:36] {nemo} I'm sure you use the whole fist
01[11:37] {Threei}  TNA breaks .85, I'd trail to .74
[11:38] {Les} didn't see all charts. Just saw bullish divergence on 1 min chart as thrust to new low was made.
[11:38] {Les} was already aware of 3 min. potential
[11:38] {nemo} yeah, I'm at .70 anyway, finnies have been way stronger today, if they cave, everything is going
[11:42] {nemo} well, we're getting the consolidation, finnies are at a confluence level for me, so it's possible, outside the time of day, tna break above .85 is a long
[11:42] {nemo} with stop under .75
[11:44] {nemo} Natucket Sleigh Ride...
[11:45] {Les} damn we flyin
01[11:45] {Threei}  this is vertical I want to see
01[11:45] {Threei}  either exit or start choking it
[11:46] {nemo} I'm watching the finnies too
01[11:46] {Threei}  .89
[11:46] {nemo} yeah
01[11:46] {Threei}  breaks 52 - trail to .94
[11:46] {nemo} I'm thinking they try to drive the index higher
01[11:46] {Threei}  yeah, SPY is aout to take .20
[11:46] {nemo} and IWM is leading spy, which indicates bullishness
[11:46] {nemo} imo
[11:47] {nemo} and I'm still sober to boot
[11:47] {nemo} I would expect an attempted flush after this move
[11:48] {nemo} whoa...just had an image of Les swirling around in water
[11:52] {Les} I'll settle for wine
[11:52] {nemo} alright, that's gonna' be my stop
01[11:52] {Threei}  some crappy course overtook us on traderplanet as 1 place
[11:52] {nemo} wow...this is going better than expected
01[11:53] {Threei}  who is up for some additional clicking, feel free to do it anytime :)

01[11:56] {Threei}  (US) Reminder: Fed Chairman Bernanke scheduled to speak at Economic Club of NY at 12:15ET
[11:57] {nemo} stop to 52
[11:57] {nemo} this is the flush
01[11:58] {Threei} Long Setup:  TZA  .95 break
[11:59] {nemo} whoa, betting against me
01[11:59] {Threei}  no
[11:59] {nemo} we ain't there yet though
01[11:59] {Threei}  look at TNA from the point of view of 52 break
01[11:59] {Threei}  wouldn't you short that?
[11:59] {nemo} I understand, but I'll take it personally if I want to
01[11:59] {Threei}  that's TZA .95 break
01[11:59] {Threei}  oh, by all means
[12:00] {nemo} btw...you'll get more bang out of spxu
01[12:00] {Threei}  for a price though
[12:00] {nemo} see that on spy, don't think they're ready to drop
[12:00] {nemo} finnies aren't quite ready to turn over
[12:03] {nemo} finnies breaking highs
01[12:04] {Threei}  Dear Vadym,
01[12:04] {Threei}  Recently, you received an email indicating chosen as a potential candidate to represent your professional community in the 2012 Edition of Worldwide Who's Who.
01[12:04] {Threei}  We have yet to hear from you! This email simply serves as a FINAL REMINDER of your nomination for this selection period.
01[12:04] {Threei}  uh oh... I better hurry
01[12:05] {Threei}  after all, it's a FINAL REMINDER
01[12:05] {Threei}  not just some final reminder
[12:05] {nemo} well, I'm out
01[12:06] {Threei}  and it's worldwide... not just the neighborhood limited by ese on the south and will on the east
[12:06] {dino} out ravn .23, +.23
01[12:11] {Threei}  so, any of the following will do:
01[12:11] {Threei}  1. Israel/Hamas no truce
01[12:11] {Threei}  2, Ben saying "no balance sheet expansion"
01[12:11] {Threei}  3. EU saying no deal for Greece
01[12:12] {Threei}  any of those will take TZA to 1:2 in a blink of eye
01[12:15] {Threei}  so far so good
01[12:15] {Threei}  holding the line of trend reversal
01[12:16] {Threei}  (US) Fed Chairman Bernanke: There is some way to go until labor market is fully recovered; housing market has seen clear signs of improvement - Economic Club of NY- Inflation is generally subdued, to stay near 2% goal for several years
01[12:17] {Threei}  1:1
01[12:18] {Threei}  come on nemo, you can't remain oblivious to the precision of the reversal call
[12:19] {robbers} If TZA goes 1:2, you get my vote on traderplanet.
06[12:19] * Threei slaps nemo around a bit with a banner demanding recognition
[12:19] {nemo} congratulations
[12:19] {nemo} Now put your arm back in the sling
01[12:19] {Threei}  hmmm... that's a tough treshold to reach on relatively narrow thing TZA is... :)
01[12:19] {Threei}  but let's see
01[12:20] {Threei}  Ben's helping
01[12:20] {Threei}  - Financial Crisis has lowered potential of US GDP growth below 2.5% level. - US fiscal policy is a headwind for the economy, tighter federal spending is hitting GDP growth - European concerns have weighed on US asset prices.
01[12:20] {Threei}  ese would have been livid
[12:27] {nemo} Mos

01[12:33] {Threei}  I don't know... still is descending channel
[12:34] {nemo} not for iwm
[12:36] {nemo} spy coming into vwap
01[12:37] {Threei}  here is a piece of common wisdom which I am not so sure is true:
01[12:37] {Threei}  (US) Fed Chairman Bernanke: The fiscal cliff is a substantial threat to recovery, failure to solve the issue could cause a recession while resolution would have a positive impact
01[12:37] {Threei}  short term, sure
[12:37] {dino} giii spike
01[12:37] {Threei}  long term, maybe fiscal cliff is not the worst thing to happen
[12:39] {dino} mstr drop
[12:40] {robbers} Maybe, Vad, but there'd be some psychological damage, I think.  Makes our political system look even less effective.  If that's possible.
01[12:40] {Threei}  true

01[13:31] {Threei}  (GR) Bond buyback program for Greece estimated to reach 25% of face value of the debt; program would aim to reach 50% acceptance rate and ultimately bring down debt by 10%/GDP - financial press- Estimates are that the bond buyback could be funded by ECB profits or bailout funds; and Greece would require �8B for the program
01[13:32] {Threei}  ECB bailout fund to be used to buy back bonds?
01[13:32] {Threei}  and how does it change anything in Greek debt burden?

[14:27] {cc_8} The big news story of the day was Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) reporting that it had to write down a majority of intangible assets resulting from the purchase of Autonomy, a software provider.
[14:28] {dino} they pretty much write off all their acquistions
[14:28] {dino} obummer should hire them, about as much success as his solar bets
