Certain patterns often repeat themselves several times on intraday chart. In this case, we went for a short trade based on relative strength (FB was weaker than market overall, bouncing weakly while SPY hit new highs), and counting of repetition of the earlier sharp drop. That was exactly what happened. There also was somewhat humoristic element to a trade, read the embedded comments.

01[10:26] {Threei} valid long but kind of 51/49
[10:26] {thomcbell} i was thinking the same thing but holding off
01[10:26] {Threei} not very high odds of it working
[10:26] {patel} yeah
[10:26] {patel} lets leave it alone
[10:27] {patel} 2 to 1 you guys win
[10:28] {thomcbell} aig looks like a possible short setup under 34.48 - to remove some of the froth

01[10:58] {Threei} good call on FB, tbell
01[10:59] {Threei} it's trying to change the pattern now
01[10:59] {Threei} 28 break will be interesting for long if consolidates for a few min
01[10:59] {Threei} right now, not so much
01[10:59] {Threei} staying away
[10:59] {patel} thoguths on JCP
[11:00] {patel} my stop is 2 wide
[11:00] {patel} 16 cents risk
01[11:00] {Threei} .60 break was decent setup
01[11:00] {Threei} where are you in?
[11:00] {dino} pdce hl l .80
[11:01] {dino} .70 i mean
[11:01] {patel} I didnt take it
[11:01] {patel} was thinking about it at 19.66
01[11:01] {Threei} let's see if it holds .60
01[11:01] {Threei} if so, might still be good
01[11:01] {Threei} risk is very small here
01[11:02] {Threei} nope, invalidated
[11:02] {patel} lol
01[11:02] {Threei} look at it this way:
01[11:02] {Threei} long consolidation under .60, formed nice JBE,
01[11:02] {Threei} break of .60 wa a good setup,
01[11:02] {Threei} and it worked if you tried for a quick scalp.
01[11:03] {Threei} On its way back though, you want it to hold \.60
01[11:03] {Threei} old resistance, new support
01[11:03] {Threei} it lost .60, bets are off
[11:04] {patel} yeah
01[11:10] {Threei} Long Setup: FB .95 break
01[11:10] {Threei} If holds .90
01[11:10] {Threei} as we move in lunch time, picking setups with tightest stops
01[11:12] {Threei} Short Setup: AIG .65 break

[11:13] {dino} jw/a drop
[11:13] {dino} casy spike
[11:14] {cipher} dino jw?
[11:14] {nemo} we probably have one more break higher in the market
[11:14] {scottie} where do you intend to partial out on FB ?
01[11:15] {Threei} just under 28.05
01[11:15] {Threei} and aim for 1:3
[11:15] {dino} hog hod
[11:15] {dino} jw/a cipher
[11:15] {nemo} AIG likely to close gap on spy break
01[11:16] {Threei} considering 8-10 cents ratio, not actual stop under .90 :)
01[11:16] {Threei} AIG may be two-sided
[11:16] {nemo} here we go
01[11:16] {Threei} I am just not a big fan of l,unch time breakouts
[11:16] {dino} penn drop
01[11:16] {Threei} too many traps
01[11:17] {Threei} so my take is, if short side triggers I'll take it, and if long - I'll stay away
01[11:17] {Threei} FB long is a different animal, it's a pullback entry, not a breakout
[11:22] {nemo} yep
[11:23] {nemo} o.k. next level above 144 is 144.20ish

[11:25] {dino} ty
[11:26] {nemo} we should hit new highs for the year by Xmas
01[11:27] {Threei} - The positive European data out overnight plus the typical pre-FOMC gains are sending US equity indices higher this morning. The DJIA and S&P500 are up 0.8% in the early going, while the Nasdaq is up 1.4% thanks to people stepping in to buy Apple, which itself is up 3.5%.
01[11:27] {Threei} - There is still no concrete progress from the fiscal cliff talks, although press reports yesterday evening suggested that progress was being made and talks were becoming more substantive over recent days. House Speaker Boehner will update on the latest at 12 noon.
01[11:27] {Threei} - The FOMC meeting tomorrow is also being seen as a big driver of gains this morning. Analysts point out that US equity markets have rallied ahead of five of the seven FOMC meetings this year. In three of the five rallies, the market sold off the day after the meeting.
01[11:27] {Threei} unless they decide no deal, nemo
01[11:28] {Threei} I'd think we will see a lot of nervous twists and turns next 3 weeks

[11:44] {Will49} so far he's been walking the runs in
01[11:48] {Threei} ok FB, it's time
01[11:49] {Threei} not only you are infuriatingly mad business, you also make us wait too long for your stock to movbe
01[11:49] {Threei} where is ese, his hatred for FB would have had a good outlet right now
[11:51] {Will49} he's teaching impressionable kids to appreciate socialism
01[11:52] {Threei} might be just a skill to teach...
01[11:52] {Threei} heard Immelt on TV yesterday? "State communism works"

01[11:56] {Threei} but things are very slow
[11:57] {Will49} Boehner is in the bullpen warming up
01[11:57] {Threei} last touch of spray-on tan?
[11:57] {patel} he is warming up with the bases loaded
[11:58] {Will49} and I'm on base
01[11:58] {Threei} you are meanies
[11:58] {patel} FB is on 3rd base

[11:59] {patel} yeah
[11:59] {patel} think I should post a status message on facebook

[12:02] {patel} just got to teh mound

[12:02] {Will49} or steel maybe
[12:02] {Will49} steal
01[12:03] {Threei} here it goes
01[12:03] {Threei} (US) House Speaker Boehner (R-OH): Republicans have made a serious offer on the budget, still waiting for White House specifics on cuts
01[12:04] {Threei} - Hopeful can reach an agreement
01[12:05] {Threei} - Still red ink as far as eye can see
01[12:06] {Threei} move your lazy butt, FB
01[12:06] {Threei} - Reiterates the White House is "slow walking" the negotiations.
[12:07] {thomcbell} aig relentless

[12:12] {patel} or go with the 2 minute drill.
[12:12] {Will49} yeah
01[12:13] {Threei} well, to be fair to today: it's still faster than yesterday was, and we had much better morning, with 3 very nice hits one after another
01[12:13] {Threei} or 4
01[12:13] {Threei} my math is fuzzy after that nemo lesson
01[12:14] {Threei} I noticed he counts rounds fired, dead bodies and vodka shots much faster thasn he does chocolate cakes
[12:15] {dino} out fdo .34 +.24
01[12:15] {Threei} JCP works, even though on paper
01[12:15] {Threei} who had it for short, play by the book
01[12:17] {Threei} I don't think this gal is sane at all:
01[12:17] {Threei} (US) House Minority Leader Pelosi (D-CA) reiterates call for Republicans to act to vote on middle class tax cuts; President's plan already agrees to $1.6T in spending cuts- Tax reform should be left for the next session of Congress. - Notes that spending changes to entitlement programs shouldnt be used as a method to subsidize tax cuts for wealthy
01[12:18] {Threei} 1:1 JCP
[12:18] {Will49} good call dp

[15:05] {patel} The 1st 1.5 hours are fun these days.
[15:05] {patel} the rest is just boring as it can get.
[15:05] {dino} pretty much, by 11:00 am tings really die
[15:06] {nemo} well, this is interesting
[15:07] {dino} going for red maybe, lots of time to do it
[15:08] {nemo} wow...that would be impressive
[15:18] {dino} still droping
[15:18] {dino} dropping
[15:18] {patel} Math Question:
[15:19] {Will49} what is 2+2?
[15:19] {patel} If Robbie had 52 candy bars and he ate 38 of them in one day. How much did he have left at the end of the day?
01[15:20] {Threei} I refuse to take any math questions where numbers exceed the number of fingers on two hands
[15:20] {nemo} O.k. got a joke:
[15:20] {patel} I figured we are all bored.
[15:20] {nemo} Guy walks into a store where they sell brains in a jar
[15:21] {nemo} Irish brains $42/lb
[15:21] {patel} the answer was DIABETES
[15:21] {nemo} French brains $33/lb
[15:21] {Will49} lol
[15:21] {nemo} Ukranian brains $435/lb
[15:21] {nemo} Guy goes "wtf! how come Ukranian brains are so expensive
[15:22] {nemo} Store guy says, "You have any idea how many Ukranians it takes to get a pound of brains?!"
[15:22] {thomcbell} i gotta run guys - nice day
[15:22] {patel} lol
[15:22] {Will49} haha

01[15:25] {Threei} what can I say nemo... I heard this joke in 50 versions, each differing by the subject joke teller wanted to target
[15:25] {Will49} oh oh Vad is not amused
[15:26] {nemo} yeah me too
01[15:26] {Threei} I am not ukrainian by nationality so I wouldn;t care much :)
[15:26] {nemo} true
[15:28] {nemo} I'd almost say tna long here, stop under .00 for a run to .40ish
[15:35] {Will49} sheesh nemo...why did you have to say "almost"?
[15:35] {nemo} o.k. next time I'll just call it
[15:35] {Will49} :)
01[15:36] {Threei} the pain of admitting that nemo was right, eh will?
[15:36] {Will49} :)
[15:36] {Will49} :(
01[15:36] {Threei} yup, that's the struggle I deal with daily
[15:37] {nemo} it's amazing...looks like iwm will finish above R3, SPY above R2, and finnies, probably in the area of R1, but the end of the day makes it feel like a bad market day
[15:37] {nemo} and actually iwm could keep going with spy heading for .55
[15:51] {patel} alright guys
01[15:51] {Threei} ok... no more trades
