[11:38] {ese} wow
[11:38] {ese} spex
[11:38] {+cc_9} before even checking, that looks like a tough one to borrow
[11:39] {dino} none avail for me
01[11:40] {&Threei}  US) Fed's Fisher (hawk, FOMC alternate): In favor of tapering in the fall, investors cannot rely upon a "Fed put"- Taper needs to be orderly, must gingerly unwind the balance sheet. - Fed owns a significant slice of critical markets at the moment, is at a delicate moment. - Excess liquidty could provide plenty of kindling for inflation, may also be inspiring the misallocation of capital. - Markets may be too used to having Fed stimulus.
[11:40] {nemo} significant slice of critical markets...we're fucked
01[11:40] {&Threei}  Une voix dans le desert
[11:41] {nemo} Think I'll see how Whitey Bulger's trial is going
[11:41] {RonS} on no...someone figured it out...Voting Fisher for rocket scientist
01[11:42] {&Threei}  nemo... this is one hawk against all the people with two left brains
[11:42] {dino} sds hl l .95 stop .73
01[11:42] {&Threei}  thewy will press until there is njothing to press anymore
[11:42] {nemo} I understand, but he just admitted, they're basically in the position of the London Whale
01[11:43] {&Threei}  and when collapse looms karge, their major effort will be about how to pin it on the right
[11:43] {dino} baby beluga
[11:43] {nemo} DDD sseting up short
01[11:43] {&Threei}  needless to say, right is doing fabulous job making themselves an easy target
01[11:44] {&Threei}  btw, someone posted an article in FT over the weekend with cute analogy: austerity during financial crisis is like prescribing a diet to anorexic
01[11:45] {&Threei}  to which I couldn't help but answer:
01[11:45] {&Threei}  borrowing more in debt crisis is like prescribing a cake to morbidly obese
01[11:46] {&Threei}  C 1:2

[13:16] {nemo} that fed news kinda took the wind out of the sails today
01[13:16] {&Threei}  you mean Fisher's comments?
[13:17] {nemo} yeah...there wasn't much commitment anyway today
01[13:17] {&Threei}  I don't know if anyone takes it seriously
01[13:17] {&Threei}  he is but one voice... chairman will set the policy
[13:17] {nemo} really?  I had no idea
01[13:17] {&Threei}  and chairman will have two left brains, two left arms, two left legs
01[13:18] {&Threei}  you also had no patience to wait for the end of the sentence
[13:18] {nemo} and soon, maybe even a vagina
[13:18] {dino} epam stop/cov .70 -.14
[13:18] {nemo} Ron must not be paying attention
01[13:18] {&Threei}  now, this same fisher said:
01[13:19] {&Threei}  - Have not seen any name that has surfaced as a potential Fed Chair nominee that he woud not be happy to serve under, Bernanke has set a high bar, ultimate standard for a Fed chair is Volcker
01[13:19] {&Threei}  high bar eh?
01[13:19] {&Threei}  and the names floating are Yellen and Summers
01[13:19] {&Threei}  and he will be happy with them
01[13:19] {&Threei}  shrug
[13:21] {+cc_9} SPEX pulling off what SR needs to pulloff
[13:21] {+cc_9} a damn fade.
[13:22] {dino} out sds .00, +.05
[13:27] {dino} mcox?

01[13:28] {&Threei}  1999-early 2000 all over again
01[13:28] {&Threei}  stocks triple in one day
[13:29] {+cc_9} BIDU nice comeback so far
[13:29] {+cc_9} SR closing in on $13, just tank already
[13:30] {nemo} yeah, BIDU bounced right at the 23.6 of recent swing low before the gap up
[13:31] {ese} bidu is one of the hardest stocks there is trade imo...spread is always huge
[13:31] {nemo} yeah, like a secretary's ass
[13:32] {dino} lol
06[13:32] * &Threei sends nemo a Good Manners, Volume 1 for study
[13:43] {dino} cboe hl ml .40
[13:44] {RonS} ml?
[13:45] {dino} long, typo
01[13:46] {&Threei}  "maybe long"
01[13:46] {&Threei}  come on Ron
01[13:47] {&Threei}  {nemo} Now, can you send me a secretary with big ass too, to read that Good Manners volume to me out loud?
01[13:47] {&Threei}  sigh
[13:48] {RonS} classic...lol
01[13:49] {&Threei}  Les, where are you
[13:56] {+cc_9} Just a thought, but have you guys considered trading DUST as opposed to GDX/GLD ?
[13:56] {+cc_9} The intraday swings are unmatched.
[13:56] {+cc_9} even a couple hundred shares make a good trade.
[13:57] {nemo} volume a little thin
01[13:57] {&Threei}  20-30 cents wide spread stock is a very different trading style
01[13:59] {&Threei}  I prefer hunting for 20-30 cents move on a 1000 shares of thick stock to a dollar - dollar and half om 200 shares of this thinnie
[14:06] {ese} omg.............tooth decay......yes definitely more exciting
[14:11] {+cc_9} If you anticipate a move on GDX, you get the same exact move on DUST. Obviously if you are wrong, then you are wrong.
[14:12] {+cc_9} I understand what you're saying though.
01[14:14] {&Threei}  it's different ways of risk contr'ol
01[14:14] {&Threei}  and setups are much easier to see on thicvk stocks
[14:14] {RonS} ok, nemo...hit 'em
01[14:14] {&Threei}  thin ones can make an "accidental" move that tags your stop with more ease than thick ones
[14:15] {RonS} ...nemo:  same as on thick women...
01[14:15] {&Threei}  lol
[14:15] {nemo} eh...mouth's a mouth
[14:19] {ese} damn Canadians......it's them causing the liquidity issues her.....there all on flippin holiday
[14:20] {ese} out bah 2k worth .21 +.19
[14:20] {dino} gj
[14:20] {ese} tks
[14:28] {+cc_9} SR lol what just happened
[14:29] {+cc_9} 200k shares just moved it $2.25
[14:35] {dino} out cboe .69, +.29
01[15:00] {&Threei} Short Setup: GDX  .45 break
01[15:01] {&Threei}  If holds  .50
01[15:07] {&Threei}  aggressive for .40
01[15:08] {&Threei}  (G20) White House Press Sec Carney: Decision on whether President Obama will attend the summit in Russia will be made within a few days- Note: Some Congressional members had called on President Obama to boycott the G20 summit in Moscow in protest of the Snowden asylum **Note: Russia hosts the G20 Leaders Summit in St.Petersburg this September
01[15:08] {&Threei}  not that Russia cares much if he doesn't go, but sheesh, show some spine and just don't go
[15:13] {+cc_9} A-Rod suspended for 211 games, market moving news
[15:13] {dino} how many games in a year
[15:13] {RonS} wow, thought it should be only 210...
[15:14] {RonS} ...thinking 183 or 186...
01[15:17] {&Threei}  I see no correlation between GDX and DUST on this call
01[15:17] {&Threei}  GDX drops, DUST went up from the moment of GDX trigger
[15:20] {dino} jack spike
[15:20] {dino} break .25 short btrig
[15:24] {RonS} gj
[15:29] {nemo} well this should be our daily run to all time highs
