Ended up with another very strong day. Interesting to see whether this is fluke, or we are into pattern of selling every bounce now. Such markets are much easier to trade, so not particularly upset if that's the change we face.
Session Time: Tue Aug 27 00:00:00 2013
[09:20] {RonS} gm & bombs away...
01[09:20] {&Threei} morning ron
[09:21] {nemo} since we know they don't give a shit about a few hundred thousand people getting gassed, what's this one really about?
[09:22] {+cc_9} gm
01[09:22] {&Threei} cc9 :)
[09:22] {+cc_9} nemo, geopolitical domination
[09:23] {RonS} the ubiquitous line in the sand an the O's hurt feelings?
01[09:23] {&Threei} who knows... saving face on the world scene... distracting from economic troubles...
[09:23] {nemo} duh, more specifically please...
[09:23] {nemo} who are Syria's main sponsors?
01[09:23] {&Threei} showing that Putin Kuzkina mat...
[09:23] {nemo} ahhh
[09:23] {nemo} well, if we see him take off his shoe at the podium
[09:24] {+cc_9} Isolate Iran (even though they never were a threat), put a wall between them and Lebanon. Facilitate Saudi oil pipelines through Syria and the list goes on
[09:24] {cipher} gm
[09:24] {nemo} secure Israel to the north and from Hezbollah through Iran
01[09:24] {&Threei} cipher :)
[09:24] {nemo} Iran is a threat as one of their main sponsors
[09:25] {+cc_9} Iran is an imaginary boogie man, they are a threat to no one
[09:25] {nemo} they fight by proxy through Hezbollah
[09:26] {+cc_9} Since when a few fire crackers tossed at random a threat
[09:26] {dino} gm
01[09:26] {&Threei} dino :)
[09:26] {+cc_9} Its like saying farmers in tora bora are a threat to our freedom. Its all bs and its bad for you.

[11:32] {nemo} how's that
[11:32] {nemo} oops koennen
[11:33] {nemo} ah bebohren would work also for drilling
[11:33] {+cc_9} IWM on par now with SPY, should get a tandem move now.
[11:35] {RonS} somg jcp
[11:37] {robbers} Out GDX in full, thanks for the threepeat.
01[11:37] {&Threei} hehe
01[11:37] {&Threei} yw
[11:37] {+cc_9} SPY higher highs on intraday time frame. wall .75 then .00
01[11:38] {&Threei} 1:2
[11:39] {+cc_9} French President Hhollande says France "is ready to punish" those who gassed innocents in Syria
[11:40] {+cc_9} France only knows how to fight against 10 nomads from mali holding knives and rusty Aks
01[11:43] {&Threei} Conflicting headlines suggest that US sources have told the Syria opposition to expect an attack as early as Thursday, while others say the Obama Administration has not yet made up its mind whether or not to pull the trigger
[11:43] {nemo} yeah, but they could send LDF
01[11:45] {&Threei} 1:3, out
01[11:45] {&Threei} where is fish who complained that all the 1:3ers were spent before his entrance

[12:07] {+cc_9} test
[12:07] {+cc_9} pass
[12:08] {+cc_9} SPY LOD test x4. Moment of truth
[12:12] {+cc_9} TNA vol spike
[12:13] {+cc_9} anyone else sees that ?
[12:16] {nemo} I see the volume spike, but since that's derivative of IWM, not sure it means much
[12:19] {nemo} cc, the question now is do you start partialling in a long for a 154 bounce
[12:19] {nemo} 164
[12:19] {nemo} you've got support iwm at .46
[12:20] {nemo} major suport at .58 on xlf
01[12:34] {&Threei} to distract you and prevent overtrading while market is stalled, http://goo.gl/V0xgSj
[12:37] {+cc_9} DDD long idea, stop loss LOD
01[12:37] {&Threei} come on, no one like those classic engines of collector cars?
[12:37] {nemo} not my thing...looks nice though
01[12:38] {&Threei} Alex, fine, he went progressibe last week, he hates cars... but the rest of you lot?
[12:38] {nemo} excuse me...
[12:38] {nemo} dude...that's the ultimate of insults, you are on the list
01[12:38] {&Threei} ?
[12:39] {nemo} oh, you referring to Alex?
01[12:39] {&Threei} you have some kind of reading impairment or what?
[12:39] {nemo} I'll stop while I'm behind
01[12:40] {&Threei} wow... never thought I'd live to see this
[12:40] {nemo} exception that proves the rule
[12:41] {nemo} oh oh
01[12:41] {&Threei} wait nemo, I have a car that you will like
[12:41] {+cc_9} there goes the rug
01[12:41] {&Threei} no news
[12:41] {nemo} here comes the volume
[12:42] {Alexs} in fact all progressives like good cars they just have it and don't talk about it ;)
01[12:42] {&Threei} that's their standard MO
[12:43] {Alexs} :)
01[12:43] {&Threei} look at this: https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1186023_520039801408873_691370006_n.jpg
[12:49] {nemo} eh
[12:56] {+cc_9} +$0.70 on DDD
01[12:56] {&Threei} nice
[13:08] {dino} gj
01[13:39] {&Threei} Russia and China warn Syria strike would have "catastrophic consequences"
01[13:39] {&Threei} for whom?
[13:40] {Alexs} I think for everybody actually
[13:40] {dino} kind of a dreaded double dog dare to obummer
[13:41] {nemo} yeah, but he doesn't have to run for reelection
[13:41] {nemo} allows dems to vehemently stand against him in next elections
[13:41] {nemo} screws republicans
[13:47] {+cc_9} To believe that there are actually parties with different point of views and its all about who to vote in, is naive.
[13:49] {nemo} I understand, but the game is played at multiple levels...bread and circus to maintain the Potemkin village
01[13:49] {&Threei} I liked toad and pooch theme better...
[13:49] {dino} i find it ironic that you can shoot as many people that you want, but you cannot gas them. death is death to me
01[13:49] {&Threei} or kings and cabbage
[13:50] {dino} all the prior murders were ok i guess
[13:52] {nemo} nah, bread and circus for the masses
01[13:52] {&Threei} priorities... no one spoke of boycotting Olympics in Russia while it supported Syria for 2 years, but as soon as gays rights were assaulted, all kinds of celebrities demanded boycott
01[13:52] {&Threei} things that make me beg to let me off this planet
[13:52] {dino} sure, the politically correct are not grounded in reality
01[13:52] {&Threei} I would be very comfortable on Titan
[13:54] {+cc_9} Like Vad always says "Its all fund and games until fown to roaf and one screws the toad"
01[13:55] {&Threei} yup, my favorite saying
[14:03] {+cc_9} headfake after headfake, yea, i think ill wait
[14:23] {robbers} Geez, what is the GDX short now, 1:25?
01[14:25] {&Threei} lol
[14:25] {Alexs} fb short .75?
01[14:26] {&Threei} half lot, worth a try
[14:51] {Alexs} GDX volume increases
[14:52] {Alexs} reverse time?
01[14:52] {&Threei} if dives again under .80, I'd be interested in recross
[14:53] {Alexs} ok
[15:15] {+cc_9} JCP looking for reversal EOD
01[15:23] {&Threei} Long Setup: GDX .55 break
01[15:23] {&Threei} If holds .50
01[15:34] {&Threei} feels like we are back to "sell into any bounce" pattern
01[15:34] {&Threei} I like it
01[15:34] {&Threei} if that holds, we tend to do very well in such market
01[15:34] {&Threei} we shoot anything that peeks out of its hole in ground
[15:39] {+cc_9} BREAKING NEWS : AUSTRALIA IS SENDING 27 FISHING BOATS TO ATTACK SYRIA
[15:40] {+cc_9} someone's gonna get recked, straya' style
01[15:44] {&Threei} Long Setup: GDX .20 break
01[15:44] {&Threei} If holds .15
01[15:44] {&Threei} last try
[15:45] {Alexs} I like "sell into any bounce" better
01[15:46] {&Threei} well, I am not sdure we are fully there yet
[15:47] {+cc_9} IWM catching bids
01[15:47] {&Threei} and this is legitimate long setup with low risk
[15:47] {nemo} this low on spy Was within a few cents of the weekly S2 so that lokely it
[15:47] {nemo} likely
[15:48] {+cc_9} All this downside and DIA is only down 1%
01[15:48] {&Threei} 1:1
[15:49] {dino} but down 6% in last 25 days
[15:51] {+cc_9} we saw the same pattern for all of June
[15:52] {dino} bounce soon, imo
[15:52] {+cc_9} 146-145 on DIA should give us max ~ 162 on SPY
01[15:53] {&Threei} ok guys, thank you all
01[15:53] {&Threei} have a great evening, see you tomorrow
[15:53] {dino} cya
