01[09:31] {@Threei}  {Threei} [15:46] {@Threei} referndum will be 89%
01[09:31] {@Threei}  Separatist election officials reported 89 percent for seceding and 10 percent against doing so in Donetsk Oblast.
01[09:31] {@Threei} Short Setup: GLD  .30 break

01[09:36] {@Threei}  (EU) France's Le Pen: Right wing parties in the EU Parliament looking to band together and work to block EU trade agreement with the US- Eurosceptic parties should win enough seats to form a political group in the legislature **NOTE: in the May 22-25th European Parliament elections, polls have indicated that anti-EU populists and nationalist from the left and right could potentially double the number of seats they hold in the body to over 20%
01[09:36] {@Threei}  next possible irritant for the market
01[09:37] {@Threei}  FB sharp pullback
01[09:40] {@Threei}  wake up already GLD

01[10:25] {@Threei}  "Which country we will join will be decided after consultations with experts," separatist leader said.
01[10:25] {@Threei}  they consider Honduras I understand
01[10:25] {@Threei}  or Burkina Faso
[10:26] {Alexs} EU I guess
01[10:26] {@Threei}  not exotic enough
[10:27] {cosmo} turkey?

[10:38] {Alexs} Turchynov, acting president of Ukraine, told parliament on Monday that turnout was 24% in Luhansk and 32% in Donetsk
01[10:39] {@Threei}  I wonder how he knows that
[10:40] {Alexs} It's stupid to alaborate on it if you don't recognize the referendum
01[10:41] {@Threei}  but that's nothing... from my friend in Gorlovka, Donetsk province, quick translation. Here is how real men do referendums:
01[10:41] {@Threei}  you come to a booth with ballot in hands, a man standing near the ballot box takes it from you and looks at it. If Yes is checked, he drops it in the box; if No, he throws it in the litter and tells you go and think again before you come back. As you walk back, people with machine guns observing the scene focus on you.
[10:41] {Alexs} lol
[10:44] {Alexs} so  what was your friend choice finally?
01[10:44] {@Threei}  walked off
[10:44] {dino} gun to the head
01[10:44] {@Threei}  according to him, majority never came to vote
01[10:45] {@Threei}  they were against separation but coming and voting so means putting yourself in too much danger
01[10:45] {@Threei}  people get beaten up and kidnapped routinely for speaking ip against separation
01[10:48] {@Threei}  16 year old teen's from Donetsk Tweet: “Hooray! I already voted 4 times, no ID needed, ballots marked “No” are immediately torn up"
01[10:49] {@Threei}  ok... SPY finally shows more weakness
[10:49] {dino} lol, sounds like philadelphia, no id needed
[10:49] {nemo} http://goo.gl/CCw0xc

01[10:51] {@Threei}  can't believe we finally nailed the top
01[10:52] {@Threei}  drive up looked endless
01[10:53] {@Threei}  A senior Russian politician said on Sunday he had brought to Moscow a petition by residents of Moldova's Russian-speaking, breakaway region of Transdniestria backing union with Russia.
01[10:54] {@Threei}  Rogozin triggered an angry response from NATO member Romania on Saturday when, reacting to being barred from Romanian airspace, he said that next time he would fly on a Russian bomber jet.
01[10:59] {@Threei}  business first:
01[10:59] {@Threei}  PARIS — France will press ahead with a 1.2 billion-euro ($1.66 billion) contract to sell helicopter carriers to Russia because cancelling the deal would do more damage to Paris than to Moscow, French diplomatic sources said on May 12.
[11:00] {Alexs} lol
[11:03] {dino} lol
[11:04] {dino} clb smr l .34
01[11:09] {@Threei}  UR) Ukraine separatists call on Russia to absorb the Donetsk region into Russia - Russia press- Donetsk declares itself a sovereign state as the Donetsk People's Republic and asks to join the Russian Federation.
01[11:10] {@Threei}  difficyukt choice between Russia, Honduras and Burkina Faso is made after prolonged deliberations
[11:16] {cosmo} I'd go with Uraguay
01[11:17] {@Threei}  valid option but too late I guess
01[11:17] {@Threei}  compettition from Honduras was fierce
01[11:19] {@Threei}  Traders appear to be ignoring the events in Ukraine this morning.
01[11:19] {@Threei}  of course they do
01[11:19] {@Threei}  market dioesn't care who Ukraine belongs to
01[11:19] {@Threei}  market cares about war breaking out
01[11:19] {@Threei}  if no war, market floats up
[11:20] {nemo} ehhh  Ukraine...just a bunch of Russky wannabees anyway

01[11:49] {@Threei}  (UR) Ukraine region of Luhansk declares independence and asks to join the Russian Federation - Russia press- Earlier this morning, Donetsk declared itself a sovereign state as the Donetsk People's Republic and asked to join the Russian Federation.
01[11:50] {@Threei}  so Alex... what criteria do we use for beer bet settlement?
[11:53] {Alexs} Annexation of those regions by Russia of course
01[11:53] {@Threei}  why? bet was for separation from Ukraine or remaining a part of it
[11:53] {Alexs} I bet Russia will not do it
01[11:54] {@Threei}  [15:51] {Alexs} I'm sure the country will be as it is today
01[11:54] {@Threei}  [15:51] {@Threei} ok... beer bet? :)
01[11:54] {@Threei}  [15:52] {Alexs} :) done
01[11:56] {@Threei}  full text is at http://tradinglog.realitytrader.com/2014/05/may-09-2014.html :)
01[11:57] {@Threei}  {---- keeping thorough records when it comes to beer
[11:57] {Alexs} ok what's your point of view, do they separated from Ukraine already?
01[11:57] {@Threei}  no
01[11:58] {@Threei}  it's a first step, still reversible, although I don't believe it will be reversed
[11:58] {Alexs} what will be that "red line"?
01[11:58] {@Threei}  thast was my question
01[11:59] {@Threei}  what is the market where you admit losing the bet? :)
01[11:59] {@Threei}  marker
01[12:00] {@Threei} Long Setup:  IWM  .30 break
01[12:00] {@Threei}  If holds  .20
[12:02] {Alexs} they can't survive separately, so I propose it will be the point there they conclude any agreement with other country then Ukraine about any kind of union
01[12:02] {@Threei}  what if they still simply remain autonomy?
01[12:03] {@Threei}  elect their own government, do not take part in Ukraine election etc
01[12:03] {@Threei}  isn't it separation?
01[12:03] {@Threei}  ugh, come on IWM
01[12:03] {@Threei}  2 cents from 1:1
[12:07] {Alexs} autonomy inside the country doesn't mean separation if they don't take a part in current Ukraine election in that situation I think it's obviouse thing because of war
[12:08] {Alexs} Don't you agree that they can't exist by theirselves?
01[12:09] {@Threei}  it doesn't mean they wouldn't try
01[12:09] {@Threei}  and why not... there are smaller countries
[12:10] {nemo} .16 range Qs since 10:15
01[12:11] {@Threei}  half out
01[12:11] {@Threei}  not going to let it turn into loss

01[12:20] {@Threei}  .46
01[12:23] {@Threei}  stop to .34
01[12:34] {@Threei}  is it time for SPY to retreat some, or will just hang in here
01[12:36] {@Threei} Long Setup:  TZA  .95 break
01[12:36] {@Threei}  If holds  .85
[12:36] {dino} not finding anything
01[12:37] {@Threei}  tight range at the top
01[12:37] {@Threei}  I doubt we will see real reversal, but some pullback is probably in order
01[12:37] {@Threei}  if for nothing else, then to just sucker in bears
01[12:38] {@Threei}  and then kill them by new spike into eod
01[12:38] {@Threei}  if this read is right (an no news comes in to ruin it), then we have a plan
[12:39] {Alexs} ok Vad lets put like that: as long as ukraine fight for that territories it's still a part of ukraine if they give up and their troops retreat from donetsk and lugansk regions you won?
01[12:39] {@Threei}  look for scalps on short side for now, then longs into close
01[12:39] {@Threei}  sounds about right
[12:40] {Alexs} :)
01[12:40] {@Threei}  (and I keep Kharkiv in reserve, i hope for another bet, for gorilka this time {G})
[12:41] {Alexs} rofl
01[12:42] {@Threei}  gs... do you have it in your liquor stores?
01[12:42] {@Threei}  ok TZA
01[12:42] {@Threei}  let's do 1:2
01[12:46] {@Threei}  anyone interested in good and unusual vodka, see if you can find it in your local stores... may sell as gorilka or pertsovka, easy to recognize by an amber color and red chili pepper floating inside
01[12:51] {@Threei}  .40 is SPY support to lose, to start some downdraft
01[13:25] {@Threei}  ugh
01[13:29] {@Threei}  anyone's breathing? or you all are asleep?

01[14:43] {@Threei}  yes... last resort
01[14:43] {@Threei}  when nothing works, go to twitter and deploy almighty hashtag
[14:45] {RonS} beware the nuclear hashtag...
01[14:45] {@Threei}  General Motors Corp Reportedly intends to provide 4G LTE service in some vehicles beginning in 2015 using the OnStar and AT&T networks - financial press- Cars would be allowed to become a Wi-Fi hot spot for $5/day
01[14:45] {@Threei}  right

01[14:48] {@Threei}  bored drivers?
01[14:48] {@Threei}  also, if you drive in Slavyansk, you may want it to avoide the streets with active shooting

01[14:51] {@Threei}  app that helps find a shelf with mill
01[14:51] {@Threei}  milk
[14:55] {nemo} spy volume 56 mil probably looking at 80 mil day
01[14:56] {@Threei}  I overestimated sanctions by west. I said 3 people? it's two
01[14:56] {@Threei}  (RU) EU discloses new targets for sanctions in Russia as a result of the Ukraine crisis - press- Sanctions list includes Volodin (First Deputy Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office), Shamanov (commander of Russia airborne unit)
01[14:56] {@Threei}  Volodin and Shamanov are in deep sorrow, and will drink whole next week
01[14:56] {@Threei}  wait... they would anyway
[14:59] {Alexs} actually russia suffer a big capital outflow mor than $170 bil already
01[14:59] {@Threei}  yup
[15:00] {Alexs} I think it hurts a lot
01[15:00] {@Threei}  It must
[15:00] {Alexs} and it will be harder
[15:02] {Alexs} now Putin's trying to get investment from china and it will be very dangerous fro russia
[15:02] {dino} of course small price to pay for that real estate called crimea
[15:03] {Alexs} china can swallow russia very quickly
01[15:03] {@Threei}  it actually started
01[15:04] {@Threei}  millions are sneaking in far east
[15:04] {Alexs} yup
01[15:04] {@Threei}  huge porous border
[15:04] {Alexs} just a beginning
01[15:05] {@Threei}  they read Sun Tzu too...
01[15:06] {@Threei}  why start a war if you can infiltrate and assimilate
[15:06] {nemo} actually, the Russian translations of Sun Tzu are much better than what are available in Englishy
[15:06] {nemo} English
01[15:06] {@Threei}  20 years later, half of Russia speaks Mandarin... what war?
[15:07] {Alexs} how do you know nemo?
[15:08] {nemo} It kinda' falls under my vocational expertise
01[15:08] {@Threei} Long Setup:  IWM  .90 break
01[15:08] {@Threei}  If holds  .80
01[15:09] {@Threei}  closed GLD
[15:10] {Alexs} but chinese read it in original language
[15:11] {nemo} You asked me about my statement comparing English and Russian translations
[15:11] {RonS} hmm... really?  given its age is it not an old version?
[15:11] {Alexs} yeah sure nemo
01[15:11] {@Threei}  as far as general principles go, quite current, ron
[15:12] {nathan} gn all
[15:12] {nathan} see u tomorrow
[15:12] {nemo} go have some Sangria
01[15:12] {@Threei}  take care nathan
[15:12] {RonS} not talking subject matter...but language...
[15:13] {nathan} hahaha
01[15:13] {@Threei}  oh
[15:14] {nemo} don't understand your point Ron
[15:16] {RonS} since there is Olde English, and Latin was the precursor to the romance languages would not a Chinese dialect be the same?
[15:16] {nemo} Mandarin characters have stayed pretty consistent for a coupla' thousand years
[15:17] {nemo} pronounciations vary
[15:17] {dptl} see ya tomorrow all
01[15:17] {@Threei}  take care dp
01[15:18] {@Threei}  btw, speaking of... if there were a rule forbidding to eat asnything with higher IQ, I know quite a few who would have been banned from eating a mandarin
[15:18] {RonS} characters may be the same but would not the meanings(s) evolve or devolve?
[15:19] {RonS} back then gay character happy...now homo   :)
01[15:20] {@Threei}  TWTR did it
01[15:21] {@Threei}  well... almost
[15:21] {RonS} happy to homo?
01[15:21] {@Threei}  got 34, but I expected it to explode after tat
01[15:21] {@Threei}  lol ron
01[15:21] {@Threei}  you rode it to 34, rcford?
[15:24] {_rcford} Oh No

01[15:25] {@Threei}  oh
[15:25] {_rcford} key board acting up
01[15:25] {@Threei}  gj anyway
[15:26] {_rcford} absolutely  we can't get them all
01[15:27] {@Threei}  Avakov: Ukraine government's armed operation in east to go on
[15:33] {Alexs} Avakov spoiled your beer dreams Vad
01[15:33] {@Threei}  not in the least
01[15:33] {@Threei}  I didn't expect them to give up on one day
01[15:35] {@Threei}  but it's inevitable... I see many ways to separation and practically none to reuniting
[15:37] {Alexs} looks like putin doesn't want an army of starving miners in his country though
01[15:37] {@Threei}  who would
01[15:37] {@Threei}  6.5 mil
01[15:37] {@Threei}  no go IWM
01[15:37] {@Threei}  afternoon is not mine today
[15:38] {Alexs} finaly it all be china
[15:38] {RonS} dammit..CLB unreal
[15:38] {Alexs} they give food and job to everybody
01[15:38] {@Threei}  imagine paying them all pensions and taking care of budget-dependent, at russian rate vs ukrainian
[15:39] {Alexs} it's killing factor that's what i'm saying
01[15:39] {@Threei}  plud guerrilla war
[15:40] {Alexs} exactly
01[15:40] {@Threei}  sure he will try to keep them out of russia, but not let them back in UYkraine either... puppet gobernment will be fine with him
[15:40] {Alexs} it's impossible situation
01[15:40] {@Threei}  for whom?
01[15:41] {@Threei}  for miners?
01[15:41] {@Threei}  what does he care? :)
01[15:42] {@Threei}  what the deuce
01[15:42] {@Threei}  SPY/IWM divergence
01[15:43] {@Threei}  q'uite weird
[15:43] {Alexs} lol I mean independent donetsk and luhansk even with a puppet government somebody needs to give them money
01[15:44] {@Threei}  well, they might face this impossible to imagine concept of actually earning it
01[15:45] {@Threei}  but on serious note, giving them discounted gas and some money here and there will be cheaper way for Russia to keep situation as it is
[15:47] {Alexs} I don't think that's what putin is planning
[15:48] {Alexs} he will sell them to the west for something more valuable for him
01[15:49] {@Threei}  difficult to say, but they sure made themselves a subject of trading
[15:49] {Alexs} yup
01[15:50] {@Threei}  new highs into close
01[15:50] {@Threei}  just as expected... but haven't found the way to exploit it
01[15:50] {@Threei}  grrr
01[15:51] {@Threei}  Ok guys, thank you
01[15:51] {@Threei}  have a good evening, see you tomorrow
[15:51] {Alexs} yes IWM behaved strange
