01[10:04] {Threei} look at HLF

01[12:47] {Threei} (US) VP Biden: Gun control proposals to be provided to the President by next Tuesday, 1/15***Note that VP Biden is leading the administration's gun control efforts and is expected to put out recommendations in the next two weeks so that Pres Obama can mention them in his inaugural address on Jan 21. A recent WaPo article asserted that the administration is considering a broad range of measures to reduce gun violence that would include more than a ban of assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition, universal background checks for firearm buyers, tracking the movement and sale of weapons through a national database, strengthening mental health checks, and stiffening penalties for carrying guns near schools or giving them to minors

[13:14] {scottie} NFX l .20
[13:15] {dino} out cmp .83, +.90
[13:17] {scottie} forgot the question mark
01[13:21] {Threei} ugh
01[13:21] {Threei} I'd have said yes
01[13:21] {Threei} especially now when I have the benefit of looking at the chart :)
[13:23] {scottie} would've worked
[13:28] {scottie} MSFT l .40 ??????????????
01[13:31] {Threei} I'd rather take aggressive
[13:31] {scottie} .35 ?
01[13:31] {Threei} from under .30 if we are so lucky
[13:33] {scottie} hate it when you say that, I'm not very good at pullbacks
01[13:33] {Threei} sorry... but still :)
01[13:33] {Threei} it's not that hard, logic is:
[13:33] {scottie} wouldn't break of .30 invalidate the trade ?
01[13:34] {Threei} let it drop under .30, consolidate a few min,
01[13:34] {Threei} then buy break of .30
[13:34] {_jdetente} how about this NFX pullback?
[13:34] {scottie} ah
01[13:34] {Threei} as it is, .35 is valid chaoice with stop under .30
01[13:34] {Threei} just less chance of working
01[13:35] {Threei} NFX is interesting for secondary entry here
01[13:35] {Threei} .20 break if holds .15
[13:38] {_jdetente} goodbye NFX we hardly knew ye
01[13:39] {Threei} yeah
01[13:39] {Threei} MSFT starts looking like .30 break may be a short
[13:51] {scottie} TXN l .40 ?
01[13:52] {Threei} yes
[13:53] {scottie} stop .30 ?
01[13:53] {Threei} not sure how fast it's going to be but most everything is slow, so..
01[13:53] {Threei} either .30 or .35, both are valid
[13:53] {scottie} .35 it is then
[13:54] {scottie} in .41
