Sept 06 2013

Nice end to the week, with somewhat of a roller-coaster day as market got roiled by morning numbers and Syria-related remarks. Still, squeezed out a few nice plays that overcame tight stops, and finished with nice 1:2  GLD long on last minutes. Good day to stay calm, disciplined and trade by the book.

Session Time: Fri Sep 06 00:00:00 2013

[09:00] {nemo} Bad News is good news Bull Market
[09:01] {nemo} actually spy is starting to set up short here, see if it holds the trend line
01[09:01] {&Threei}  initial reaction was sharp drop
01[09:01] {&Threei}  and gold sharp spike
01[09:02] {&Threei}  SPY recovered quickly
01[09:02] {&Threei}  gold started retreating slowly
[09:02] {nemo} .10 drop followed by .50 run higher, return to support, and grind up   -to be exact
01[09:02] {&Threei}  actually, much more than that
01[09:03] {&Threei}  tail disappeared now but it was way deeper
[09:03] {nemo} I'm talking SPY
01[09:03] {&Threei}  so am I
01[09:03] {&Threei}  you haven't watched it real time, you haven't seen it

01[09:03] {&Threei}  then you know it wasn't 10 vcents
[09:03] {nemo} no
[09:03] {nemo} but that was orchestrated

[09:04] {RonS} gm...welcome to the wrestling match...
01[09:04] {&Threei}  ron :)
[09:04] {nemo} no, but I see it enough to know it's a premarket manipulation to try and trigger stops
01[09:04] {&Threei}  wrestling? I just show my appreciation for nemo
01[09:04] {&Threei}  if he is not difficult, my world comes down crashing

[11:31] {RonS} rotflol\
[11:31] {drewj} don't you feel a little emasculated talking like that?
[11:32] {nemo} nah, I've got bunny
[11:32] {Will49} thata boy drew
[11:32] {RonS} killin me...
[11:32] {nemo} c'mon guys, he's no Les
[11:32] {drewj} don't tell me...you're into animals...
[11:32] {nemo} I'm developing my Yin side
[11:32] {nemo} only the ones I can hold down
[11:33] {Will49} go get em drew
[11:33] {drewj} to balance out your yang?
01[11:33] {&Threei}  does it involve any kind of removal?
01[11:33] {&Threei}  yang removal
[11:33] {nemo} now I'm confused
[11:33] {Will49} I'm behind you till your nose bleeds drew
[11:34] {bryl} gmorning
01[11:34] {&Threei}  hi bryl, welcome
[11:34] {nemo} oh jeez, more fresh meat?
01[11:34] {&Threei}  drew... you may have really lucked out
[11:34] {nemo} yeah, we got hair dressing
[11:34] {drewj} watch our bryl...nemo is balancing out his yang
[11:34] {nemo} spy going for the highs
[11:35] {Will49} brylcream, yeah
[11:35] {bryl} ha
[11:35] {nemo} showing our age
[11:35] {Will49} always
[11:35] {Will49} used it on my brushcut in the fifties
01[11:35] {&Threei}  oh boy... I am really scared to publish today's log
[11:35] {nemo} yeah, I'm already into the white hair
01[11:36] {&Threei}  afraid to think what types it may attract
[11:36] {nemo} so just edit it like you always do you communist
[11:36] {Will49} lol
01[11:36] {&Threei}  sigh
[11:36] {RonS} ...was stumbling around walgreens couple wekks ago...was shocked to see Vitalis on the shelf...
[11:36] {fish_49} Someone give Nemo his meds
01[11:37] {&Threei}  he spits them out
[11:37] {bryl} just make sure he doesnt drink the Vitalis
[11:37] {nemo} index shorrts here, but I think it might need one more cycle
[11:37] {Will49} you'll do well here bryl
01[11:37] {&Threei}  hey nemo... new guys are not taking it lying down:)
[11:37] {bryl} good   
[11:38] {nemo} only a matter of time
[11:38] {Will49} maybe one of the newbys is really Les incognito
[11:38] {nemo} everybody is a tough guy when they first step in the ring
01[11:38] {&Threei}  watching CAT for short into bounce
01[11:38] {&Threei}  ideally, if goes above .10
[11:38] {nemo} nah, Les resorts to ad hominem attacks by now
01[11:39] {&Threei}  short on .10 recrossd if stays under .20
[11:39] {Will49} good man Vad..get us focussed again
01[11:43] {&Threei}  no bounce
01[11:46] {&Threei}  - The August jobs report was mostly a bomb, although analysts are working hard to find the positives in the data. The non-farm measure missed expectations and the back-month revision to the July data was severe (to +104K from +162K).
01[11:46] {&Threei}  . PIMCO's Bill Gross said the Fed is still likely to taper despite today's data, perhaps on the order of $10B initially.
[11:47] {Will49} Bureau of BS
01[11:47] {&Threei}  - Syria is the other big subject this morning. With world leaders in St. Petersburg, Russia for the G20, Russia President Putin and Barak Obama have a big stage to air their opposing views of the situation. Just after the open, Putin stated that Russia would help Syria if strikes are launched by the west; later he clarified his remarks by saying Russia would merely continue its current level of support for Syria, but in any case many participants blamed the equity declines into negative territory on his remarks.
01[11:47] {&Threei}  President Obama dodged questions at a press conference about what he would do if Congress voted against military action, saying only that he would address the nation from the White House next Tuesday on the issue
01[11:47] {&Threei}  Obama?? Dodged question?? No way
[11:48] {Will49} he didn't have his teleprompter with him
01[11:56] {&Threei} Short Setup: LVS  .05 break
01[11:58] {&Threei}  If holds  .10 
[11:59] {nemo} .04 the pivot
01[11:59] {&Threei}  it's an aggressive entry for 59 break
01[11:59] {&Threei}  small stop
[12:00] {drewj} where is the stop?
[12:01] {Will49} .11
[12:01] {nemo} here's that next cycle short trigger on fas and spy
[12:02] {drewj} .11 on the bid or ask?
[12:02] {nemo} but spy basically oscillating around the 50 day here
01[12:02] {&Threei}  get out
01[12:03] {&Threei}  condition is: if holds .10. If .10 is broken, stop is hit
[12:03] {drewj} at either the bid or the ask?
01[12:03] {&Threei}  break of resistance means offer at .10 disappeared and prints go above it
[12:03] {drewj} so any print..
01[12:03] {&Threei}  while there is offer at .10, it's resistance
01[12:04] {&Threei}  when there is no more offer at .10, resistance is broken
[12:04] {drewj} ok
[12:04] {dino} conn stop -.35
[12:06] {Alexs} fb short 44?
01[12:07] {&Threei}  nah
[12:10] {drewj} how can i change the sound of a call?
03[12:14] * Looking up Threei user info...
01[12:14] {&Threei}  right click on my name - Ucentral-Highlight
03[12:14] * Looking up Threei user info...
01[12:15] {&Threei}  Edit
01[12:15] {&Threei}  Play Sound button
01[12:15] {&Threei}  and pick the sound which you want, navigating to the place on harddrive where it's located
[12:15] {drewj} got it. thanks 
[12:18] {fish_49} wow Vad very impressive
[12:18] {fish_49} now tell us how to filter out Nemo
[12:19] {nemo} yeah, I loaded a fart sound for Vad myself
[12:19] {nemo} right click on my name go to control}ignore
01[12:20] {&Threei}  before yolu do that, read this little poem nemo wrote
[12:20] {fish_49} huh  say again? Im ignoring u
01[12:20] {&Threei}  https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/45029_425067777605654_1736127792_n.jpg
[12:21] {nemo} I'm not as think as you drunk I am
[12:21] {fish_49} lol
[12:23] {nemo} think I'll clean some guns
[12:24] {fish_49} Can you look down the barrel of mine and check if it's clean?
[12:24] {nemo} after I clear the chamber and disassemble it
[12:24] {fish_49} It should be clean because I cleaned it the last time I shot a rabbit
[12:25] {nemo} buckin' for Les' spot, huh...
[12:25] {fish_49} no  just filling in for him while he is away
[12:25] {fish_49} lool
[12:26] {nemo} actually, have to get the hunting hardware out
[12:26] {fish_49} what do youhunt?
[12:26] {fish_49} any Moose in your area?
[12:26] {nemo} I do get funny looks when I take the SPAs 12 in the field
[12:27] {nemo} can't hunt moose here but a few have been known to loiter about
[12:27] {fish_49} the only long rifle I have is an air pellet gun
[12:27] {nemo} almost hit one once
[12:27] {nemo} what caliber?
[12:28] {nemo} get one of those PCC rifles-can get a pretty big caliber
[12:28] {fish_49} I'm not sure  let me check
[12:28] {fish_49} 22
[12:29] {fish_49} I need to get it looked at  3 times  now misfired  and fired 20 seconds after pulled trigger  almost shot out a window
[12:29] {nemo} what kind?
[12:30] {fish_49} crossman
[12:30] {nemo} you oughta' get one of these: http://bit.ly/17FcLjH
[12:30] {fish_49} with a scope
[12:30] {nemo} do you know the model?
[12:31] {fish_49} that's expensive Vad,  I'm a cheap bastard
[12:31] {nemo} Lewis and Clark took an air rifle on their expedition
[12:31] {fish_49} c8m22np
[12:32] {nemo} nitrogen piston, huh?
[12:32] {fish_49} no
[12:32] {fish_49} just air
[12:32] {nemo} that's what the "np" stands for
[12:33] {nemo} it's actually a Benjamin-Crosman bought them a few years back
[12:33] {fish_49} oh then maybe
[12:33] {fish_49} I just cock it and shoot it  never pay attention to the mechanics
[12:33] {nemo} more than likely the trigger is gunked up, and the spring restricted
[12:33] {fish_49} when you come down to get the monitors  you can fix it
[12:33] {nemo} I would say just spray some brake kleen up in there, but I don't know how much is made out of plastic on these things anymore
[12:34] {fish_49} perhaps  all  since made in china
[12:34] {nemo} nitrogen is much quieter and consistent over a greater range of temperatures
[12:34] {nemo} you have the thumbhole version?
[12:34] {fish_49} I'm impressed with it's quietness and range
[12:34] {fish_49} not sure about the thumb hole
[12:35] {nemo} yeah, that's the nitrogen, then you get a nitrogen gun with a suppressor on it, fun
[12:35] {nemo} Having said that, a regular .22 with subsonics and a quart water bottle affixed to the end of the barrel works better
[12:36] {fish_49} I have thought about that but worried I would shoot a neighbor
[12:36] {fish_49} which might not be a bad idea
[12:36] {nemo} Have you tried various different pellets?
[12:36] {fish_49} Just the pellets that came with it  and a friend gave me some pointed pellets
[12:36] {nemo} that rifle will likely shoot one weight and design the best
[12:37] {fish_49} the pellets I use  to shoot the critters  are nothing special
[12:37] {nemo} I have a Diana-it likes german Kugeln's the best
[12:37] {fish_49} expensive?
[12:37] {nemo} the gun or the pellets?
[12:37] {fish_49} both
[12:38] {nemo} Well, I paid about $300 for the gun in 2002 and the pellets were a little more expensive, but nothing major, point is to find out what shoots best and stick with it
01[12:38] {&Threei} Short Setup: CAT  .80 breeak
01[12:38] {&Threei}  If holds  .90 
[12:39] {Alexs} hl?
01[12:40] {&Threei}  full for me
01[12:40] {&Threei}  take 2/3 if not sure
01[12:41] {&Threei}  action is slow enough for full lot, IMO
[12:41] {Alexs} never sure
01[12:41] {&Threei}  1:1
[12:41] {fish_49} take a full lot Alex and give half to charity
[12:41] {nemo} should go to .40 area
[12:43] {nemo} relative volume coming in iwm and spy
[12:43] {Alexs} hard to be progressive in that room
[12:44] {Alexs} can't share my fair share
[12:45] {nemo} spoken like a true Progressive
[12:45] {fish_49} agree with Nemo  should see .39 or .40
[12:46] {nemo} CAT high was it's 50 day
[12:47] {drewj} Vad do you take a break from the chat room for lunch?
[12:47] {Alexs} lol
[12:47] {nemo} no, he takes a break from us
[12:47] {nemo} more a vodka break
[12:48] {Alexs} he never stops lunch
01[12:48] {&Threei}  for the most part, no... sometimes, when I am extremely sleepy
[12:49] {nemo} not to be confused with consciousness
[12:49] {RonS} conn wants the S3...unreal...
[12:50] {drewj} k
[12:50] {RonS} what's weird is the miss was a short term collections proble...thing is...this is a 50 year old crdit house...it will get fixed
[12:50] {RonS} credit
[12:50] {nemo} that looks destined for the 51.75 area area 
[12:51] {+cc_9} CONN daily trend shows 48-50 zone before possible reversal
[12:51] {+cc_9} for now knife
[12:52] {dino} at some point its a good bounce candidate, but where is the trick
[12:54] {nemo} potential support here, but I'm looking at that doji on 6/28
[12:57] {drewj} dino would you short that with small shares since it has been trending?
[12:59] {nemo} you're shorting in the hole down here and it's on the uptick rule, get the KY out and do some stretching
[12:59] {dino} nope
[12:59] {nemo} that's what I said
[12:59] {dino} i'm contrarian drewj. look for multi-point moves to go against
[13:00] {dino} nemo, thinking s3 or the big 50 magnet
[13:00] {nemo} This one has serious momentum, again that 6/28 doji might be it
[13:00] {drewj} got it
[13:01] {nemo} we're in it's range now
[13:02] {dino} ron, i'm w/your thinking, perhaps some 60 day out calls on it once she settles
[13:02] {drewj} how far back will you look for support?
[13:02] {nemo} 5/28
[13:02] {nemo} 6/28
[13:02] {nemo} look back as far as you have to
[13:02] {dino} i see those nemo
[13:02] {nemo} yeah
[13:03] {dino} after 1 year i don't bother drew
[13:03] {drewj} ok
[13:04] {dino} million ways to trade, find your edge
[13:04] {nemo} conn is easy, you have the hammer back on Jun 24th, which generally conicides with support going back to May, then you have the former resistance late may into early June, then that 1 doji on 6/28, which seems to be where it's found a bottom so far
[13:04] {fish_49} Fish shoots CAT with Pellet gun..  Die CAT  Die
[13:04] {nemo} which is basically the range CC defined
[13:07] {nemo} this might resistance to reshort NOW here
[13:10] {nemo} of course spy regains the 50
[13:10] {nemo} a .40 range since 11
[13:24] {nemo} you go to lunch yet Vad?
01[13:28] {&Threei}  nah
[13:28] {nemo} you go to the bottle yet?
01[13:32] {&Threei}  why would I need to go to it?
[13:32] {nemo} imprecision of language
01[13:33] {&Threei}  weird language yours is
[13:33] {fish_49} It's Friday  what more need do you reason
[13:33] {nemo} that, from the Ukranian yoda
[13:36] {nemo} subtle higher lows abound on the indexes
[13:36] {nemo} but I've got short setups forming again
[13:47] {nemo} http://wapo.st/1dNd1Ft
[13:48] {nemo} spy going for R#?
[13:48] {nemo} R3
[13:49] {nemo} unbelivable, going all the way below S3 and then back
[13:54] {dino} conn sm l .00
[13:56] {dino} no go
[13:57] {dino} maybe
[13:57] {dino} out .93 too high on entry -.07
[13:58] {nemo} classic short behaviour still
[13:58] {dino} higher lows/highs on the daily
[13:58] {nemo} daily?
[13:58] {dino} one day
[13:59] {dino} since 12:45
[13:59] {nemo} I see what you mean, but it can also be viewed as a bear flag, especially because it topped out at a critical moving average.  If it breaks above .40 maybe
[14:00] {dino} reload .00
[14:03] {nemo} keep it tight
[14:04] {nemo} gets above .50 and holds, 55.00 realistic
[14:04] {dino} vwap 55.20
[14:04] {nemo} yep
[14:05] {nemo} support is your entry though
[14:07] {nemo} drops that .10 she's a no good
[14:07] {dino} out .12
[14:08] {nemo} discretion is the better part of valor
[14:08] {dino} as they say, discipline trumps conviction
[14:09] {nemo} yep
[14:10] {dino} wtf
01[14:12] {&Threei} Long Setup:  CAT  84 break
01[14:12] {&Threei}  If holds  .90 
01[14:14] {&Threei}  change to .95 break
01[14:14] {&Threei}  tighter stop
[14:19] {dino} sm l .01
01[14:21] {&Threei}  meh
[14:31] {fish_49} Gonna Run  have a great weekend everyone
[14:31] {fish_49} Thanks Vad
[14:31] {fish_49} Still in my Corn Trade  Hope I never have to take delivery
01[14:32] {&Threei}  take care fish
[14:41] {RonS} so, was this rally off the lows...putin on the Ritz?
[14:41] {nemo} looks like pull intime
[14:41] {nemo} OMFG!
[14:42] {nemo} We're going to have to name an award after Ron
[14:42] {nemo} for the corniest line
[14:43] {drewj} Vad why did you call cat at .95 with so little room to the upside?
01[14:43] {&Threei}  dunno... I like it
01[14:43] {&Threei}  little room?
01[14:43] {&Threei}  why is it little?
01[14:43] {&Threei}  my target was .20
[14:44] {drewj} ok
[14:44] {drewj} but it failed to hit twenty the second time...
01[14:44] {&Threei}  what makes you think there was a little room, as it just pulled back from 84.20
[14:44] {drewj} isn't that more of a double top?
01[14:45] {&Threei}  ummm... sorry, are you judging the call AFTER the fact, already knowing how it developed?
[14:46] {dino} eli sm l .97
01[14:46] {&Threei}  having such benefit, you, I and anyone else can be 100% certain and 100% correct
[14:46] {drewj} so it was more of a range play then
01[14:46] {&Threei}  pullback entry
[14:47] {drewj} i get confused between pullback entries and reversals
01[14:47] {&Threei}  pullback is a retreat from the top withing an uptrend
01[14:48] {&Threei}  reversal is a change of a trend near the bottom
[14:48] {nemo} hey dino?
[14:48] {nemo} might get some short covering in conn coming up
[14:49] {drewj} it's not so much their definitions but how to go about exeuting them
01[14:50] {&Threei}  why don't you just follow the room calls for now... it takes time
[14:50] {dino} out meli .88, +.93
01[14:51] {&Threei}  wtg
[14:51] {dino} sorry that was meli
[14:51] {dino} not eli
[14:52] {RonS} had to go up then on the addition of a leter...thought you meant elli...
[14:52] {drewj} dino do you find that the larger the drop the larger the bounce?
[14:52] {nemo} you're thinking too much
[14:53] {drewj} how so?
[14:53] {nemo} just observe for awhile, and watch what happens
[14:53] {nemo} it can be big bounce, not big bounce, little bounce bigger fall
[14:53] {nemo} can depend on the news and the chart
[14:54] {dino} nothings ever the same drewj
[14:54] {nemo} It's like being married
[14:54] {dino} generally i will not buy a drop (or short a spike) unless i think it has .40+ potential
[14:55] {bbobr} not going to work with 'dead CAT " bounce....lol
[14:55] {drewj} so it's more about timing then
[14:55] {dino} but yuo are new here, so do not trade my picks until you get comfortable and find your edge
[14:56] {dino} everything in life is about timing
[14:56] {drewj} that's why i asked.  you seem to be doing something different.
[14:56] {nemo} not true dino...marriage is ignorance
[14:56] {dino} my "edge". most do not see it
[14:57] {dino} find what works for you (not what works for me...or somebody else)
[14:57] {drewj} i've had a lot more success in practice following the /es
[14:58] {dino} my advice, do what works for you and forget everybody else. there are lots of ways to trade
[14:58] {nemo} then what are you doing here?
[14:59] {drewj} learning from vad
[15:00] {drewj} i said in practice...my paper trades were good.
[15:00] {nemo} my point is, if the es speaks to you, that's where you should be.  A friend of mine sucked at equity trading, but could trade futures real well, that's where he is
[15:00] {dino} w/respect, but paper trades are always good
[15:00] {dino} nemo speaks what i am saying...find "your" edge
[15:01] {nemo} yep
[15:01] {nemo} I see some of Vad's trades, but not all of them
[15:01] {drewj} actually what has been working for me on paper is to follow the es and the broader market and actually trade tna and tza
[15:01] {nemo} Dino...frickin trades like a ...a...a...I have no idea, but I've watched him do it for 5 years, and every once in a while we converge
[15:01] {dino} then work that w/money. start small...
[15:02] {dino} cipher sees what i see
[15:03] {nemo} well, that's good then the es is related to the indexes iwm=tna/tza  spy=sso/sds  iyf=fas/faz gdx=nugt/dust
[15:04] {Alexs} what is es guys?
[15:04] {drewj} i think that it's because i can go away from the computer and come back and still pick up on what's going on.
[15:04] {nemo} imo, write down your questions, don't ask them.  Take a screen shot of the stock in question, then after the market closes take your screen shot along with longer time frame charts, and see if you can come up with an answer
[15:04] {drewj} es=spy futures
[15:05] {nemo} right, but remember the discussion dino, I and CC9 were having about conn?
[15:05] {Alexs} thanks drewj
[15:05] {nemo} You have to be fluent in the language and that comes from screentime when the market closes
[15:06] {drewj} is that like a self quiz nemo?  to see if i can teach myself or something?
[15:06] {nemo} I cannot tell you how many hours I've spent outside of market hours looking at charts
[15:06] {nemo} Yes, you can't be given a fish, you have to fish
[15:07] {nemo} there's no subtitute for it
[15:07] {nemo} You know who Branford Marsalis is?
[15:07] {drewj} musician right
[15:08] {nemo} yep...and he said "structure is art"
[15:08] {nemo} You have to learn the abc's and wrestle with them yourself to eventually become an artist, to find your edge
[15:08] {drewj} you're saying to learn the structure from reading charts after the market is over.
[15:08] {nemo} You have to learn the structures before your intuition starts speaking to you
[15:09] {nemo} charts, candles, structures, volume, whatever instruments speak to you
[15:09] {drewj} well the es sure does...i'm going to start there
