[10:18] {cc_9} F tanking now :(
01[10:19] {@Threei}  quick scare occurred but bottomed out just a wee bit higher than I wanted
[10:20] {cc_9} talking about F Vad ?
[10:20] {cc_9} im really surprised it has not yet had a leg up after the open...

01[10:26] {@Threei}  (US) PIMCO's Gross: Fed may taper today; but would more likely make changes on the IOER, inflation target or additional forward guidance
[10:26] {nemo} vrtx setting up long or short me thinks
[10:28] {cc_9} F no dice, she wants to flush hard before anything...
[10:28] {nemo} about time for the market to go into limbo
[10:28] {cc_9} F sellers in full control since the open
[10:28] {cc_9} not a single bounce yet
[10:29] {cc_9} F stop eater algo about to hit
[10:30] {cc_9} F full on flush. fuck

[10:41] {cc_9} not funny, but hopefully funny later
[10:42] {cc_9} race against FOMC for me to get out F
01[10:42] {@Threei}  I think news finally spread that their name is same as Toronto mayor's
01[10:42] {@Threei}  and that means majot screwup is inevitable
[10:42] {Will49} wouldn't doubt it
[10:44] {Will49} may day...may day
[10:46] {cc_9} F completely screwed
[10:46] {cc_9} not 1 bounce worth $0.20
[10:46] {cc_9} thought 15.50 would be bounce level
[10:47] {cc_9} what the hell, whats another 10k here...

[11:07] {thomcbell} yes i just noticed that
[11:08] {cc_9} this UBS defense in the shares of F giving some bids, but unless it gets back over 15.50, it will do nothing, just like the BofA defense earlier
01[11:09] {@Threei}  1:1
[11:12] {cc_9} F needs to clear these .40s to get a turn around signal on 15min
[11:14] {cc_9} F 120M served

[12:30] {nemo} pillows in front of the keyboards, folks
[12:30] {cc_9} .60 offer back on deck, $0.06 for breakout
[12:31] {cc_9} F drop held , time to get a crack at .65

[12:31] {cc_9} look @ level 2, all the FADF prints @ .60 even though offer on INET book shows .61
[12:32] {nemo} that a dark pool?
[12:32] {cc_9} i believe so yes
[12:32] {nemo} makret looking a bit iffy here
[12:32] {nemo} market
[12:32] {cc_9} the offer had 2 left before 61, but tons were going through at .60 but never upticked
[12:32] {nemo} vwap selling
[12:33] {nemo} must be big funds getting out of positions
[12:33] {nemo} anybody big getting in won't want to pay above vwap
[12:34] {cc_9} F hard time here under .60
[12:34] {cc_9} missed MU round 2
[12:34] {cc_9} perfect double bottom and bounce
[12:35] {nemo} that's likely why though.  Traders buying for large funds get higher commission buying under vwap
[12:36] {cc_9} vwap or not, i need F to break the damn .60s
[12:36] {nemo} Nature is Unkind, it treats the myriad creation like straw dogs
[12:38] {cc_9} 160M shares served on F

[12:43] {cc_9} F  ton of sellers over .60
[12:43] {cc_9} 30 minutes to test .60, 2 minutes to lose it
[12:45] {cc_9} oh goody....tanks now
[12:50] {cc_9} SPY tank, F taking heat, losing volume and buyers
[12:53] {dino} halo spike

01[13:04] {@Threei}  (US) Preview: FOMC rate decision to be released at 14:00ET; Fed economic forecast at 14:00ET; Bernanke press conf at 14:30ETFOMC Statement A recent string of favorable data opens the door for tapering to start today; Most analysts see a better than 50% chance of some form of tapering beginning today, probably with a relatively modest amount on the order of a $5-15B reduction. Alternatively the Fed could set out the parameters for tapering without pulling the trigger today in order to give markets another six weeks to digest the process.
01[13:05] {@Threei}  If the tapering process does begin today, the Fed will likely throw a bone to the markets with forward guidance changes. It could include a more formalized timetable for reducing QE, which might involve stating that the QE program will continue to function "at least" through mid-2014, or it could even set a specific monthly phase out schedule through the fall. - Source TradeTheNews.com

01[14:55] {@Threei}  bernanke: Janet Yellen fully supports today's actions.
01[14:55] {@Threei}  - Future tapering to come in further measures steps, will be deliberate and data dependent. Topic will be taken up at each meeting, base case scenario is for the asset purchase program to late into 2014 but ultimately the size of any further tapering decisions will be dependent on data.
