01[09:26] {@Threei}  hmmm
01[09:26] {@Threei}  apology sounds unapologetic
01[09:27] {@Threei}  dolf Hitler was one of the horrible villains in world history, and comparing President Putin to him was uncalled for.
01[09:27] {@Threei}  What I should have said, and what I say to you now, is that this Putin chap can be a bit Hitlery at times.
01[09:27] {@Threei}  lol

01[10:56] {@Threei}  YESSS!
01[10:56] {@Threei}  Italy will include prostitution and illegal drug sales in the gross domestic product calculation this year, a boost for its chronically stagnant economy and Prime Minister Matteo Renzi’s effort to meet deficit targets.
01[10:56] {@Threei}  that's how you do it!
[10:56] {ese} now thats funny!
01[10:57] {@Threei}  Drugs, prostitution and smuggling will be part of GDP as of 2014 and prior-year figures will be adjusted to reflect the change in methodology, the Istat national statistics office said today. The revision was made to comply with European Union rules, it said.
[10:57] {ese} theres probably some viable business models out there so why not
[11:05] {_jaredt} frustrating...my arca limit orders in DAS still won't fill
01[11:05] {@Threei}  1:1
01[11:06] {@Threei}  Russia said to have prepared classified document with retaliatory measures to Western sanctions over Ukraine
[11:07] {_jaredt} took scalp on P, Thanks Threei
01[11:08] {@Threei}  :)
[11:08] {dino} retaliatory measure: take more unkrainian land

[11:50] {RonS} dang right you canuckian yahoo...
01[11:50] {@Threei}  lol
[11:56] {dino} ades spike
01[12:04] {@Threei}  ssian President Vladimir Putin trained his pugnacious rhetoric on President Barack Obama on Friday, answering an allegation that he has lied about Ukraine. “Who is he to judge?” Putin said, according to an interpreter. “Who is he to judge, seriously? If he wants to judge people, why doesn’t he get a job in court somewhere?”
[12:06] {Alexs} lol I've seen it funny
[12:06] {RonS} arun vwap wall
01[12:06] {@Threei} Short Setup: GLD  .37 break
01[12:06] {@Threei}  If holds  .45
[12:06] {Alexs} he made a lot of funny remarks
01[12:07] {@Threei}  he feels like a winner
01[12:07] {@Threei}  and whatever ese thinks, he mostly is
[12:07] {Alexs} he is actually
[12:08] {Alexs} that gas contract with China will help them a lot
01[12:09] {@Threei}  I was unimpressed with that particular bit
01[12:09] {@Threei}  too small of a contract on too tough conditions
01[12:09] {@Threei}  more of a display than substance
[12:11] {Alexs} I don't know so much the details
[12:13] {Alexs} but russian stocks and rouble rise on it
01[12:14] {@Threei}  they dropped so much, they'll rise on announcement that Putin hasn't sneezed this morning
[12:15] {Alexs} rouble at 5 month high btw
01[12:16] {@Threei}  you now market
01[12:16] {@Threei}  it has very little to do with these things
01[12:16] {@Threei}  china contract, years from now, small and uncertain, and most likely practically unprofitable... how does it prop rouble today?
[12:19] {Alexs} Why the Russia-China gas deal matters http://www.cnbc.com/id/101693525
01[12:19] {@Threei}  oh come on
01[12:20] {@Threei}  I'll show you another article explaining why it doesn't :)
[12:20] {Alexs} I guess form ukraine press
01[12:20] {@Threei}  not at all
01[12:20] {@Threei}  but whatever
01[12:20] {@Threei}  look at the numbers, they tell whole story
[12:21] {Alexs} what do you mean $400 bil is a small number?
01[12:21] {@Threei}  over 30 years?
01[12:21] {@Threei}  yes, very
[12:22] {Alexs} Yeah but they replace Europe
01[12:22] {@Threei}  38B cft a year? EU buys 170-200 from Russia
01[12:22] {@Threei}  how is it replacement?
01[12:22] {@Threei}  and price is way lower than Russia wanted
01[12:22] {@Threei}  there is a good reason why they couldn't sign that agreement for 10 years
01[12:27] {@Threei}  this will you more background: http://time.com/109161/china-russia-gas-deal/
01[12:27] {@Threei}  die GLD
01[12:29] {@Threei}  1:1
01[12:30] {@Threei}  this is 6th win in a row if my math is right

[13:07] {_jaredt} lol
01[13:08] {@Threei}  can we say he died happy?
01[13:08] {@Threei}  and for a cause
[13:08] {RonS} lol
01[13:24] {@Threei}  (UR) Fresh clashes between pro-Russian insurgents and the Ukrainian Army are being reported today- Attacks by up to 500 pro-Russia separatists have left 20 dead
[13:24] {dino} shoo drop

[13:40] {Alexs} Putin's 'best': Ukraine, sanctions & Obama http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000278366
01[13:43] {@Threei}  lol
01[13:43] {@Threei}  translation softens his words
[13:43] {Alexs} in russian it sounds funnier
01[13:43] {@Threei}  yup, and more pointed
01[13:44] {@Threei}  Putin: wow, you are tiresome! Interpreteur: oh come on
[13:46] {Alexs} rofl
01[13:48] {@Threei}  in russian even better than that... Vo pristal
[13:48] {dino} hibb last vtry hl l .67
[13:50] {Alexs} imagine any other president says something like that to the reporter...
01[13:50] {@Threei}  yeah... he doesn't give a damn
01[13:50] {@Threei}  zero respect for the west
01[13:51] {@Threei}  and can you blame him after they demonstrated such incompetence
[13:51] {Alexs} I guess for anybody
[14:10] {dino} hibb stopped again. calling it a week, gn all
01[14:10] {@Threei}  have a good weekend dino
[14:10] {RonS} have a good weekend all, outta here too...

[14:42] {dptl} have a good weekend all
01[14:42] {@Threei}  I'll die alone...
01[14:52] {@Threei}  watching IWM for pullback
[14:53] {Alexs} Vad what time do you wake up weekdays?
01[14:54] {@Threei}  depends...
01[14:54] {@Threei}  Sat is catch up day, I sleep longer
01[14:55] {@Threei}  Sun, no more than 8 am
[14:55] {Alexs} no i mean mon-fri
01[14:57] {@Threei}  oh
01[14:57] {@Threei}  5:45
01[15:00] {@Threei}  and I am free at 1 pm :)
[15:02] {Alexs} yeah it's an advantage
[15:09] {Alexs} you sought .80 or .75 IWM ?
01[15:09] {@Threei}  .75
01[15:15] {@Threei} Long Setup:  DAL  .25 break
01[15:15] {@Threei}  If holds  .20
01[15:16] {@Threei}  .15, sorry
[15:17] {Alexs} short?
01[15:17] {@Threei}  nah
01[15:17] {@Threei}  maybe better entry on a long side if pulls back
[15:17] {Alexs} oh
[15:21] {nemo} shorts probably not a good idea in general this lack of volume usually indicates levitation
01[15:24] {@Threei}  plus, rightly or not, market considers Ukraine matter closed
01[15:24] {@Threei}  so floating up into close is market's way to prepare for gap up on Tue
[15:25] {Alexs} still remember our beer bet?
01[15:26] {@Threei}  sure... but it's a separate matter
[15:26] {Alexs} lol
01[15:26] {@Threei}  Ukraine may break in 5 parts, and market won't blink - as long as there is no war
01[15:26] {@Threei}  market doesn't care whether it's whole or not, independent or not
01[15:27] {@Threei}  whether war breaks out or not is what matters
[15:27] {Alexs} truth
[15:28] {nemo} new spy all time highs
01[15:28] {@Threei}  frikin IWM
01[15:28] {@Threei}  got away
01[15:29] {@Threei}  disregard DAL
[15:29] {Alexs} I think in 1 month it will be no war and Ukraine will stay the same  size as it is now
01[15:29] {@Threei}  doesn't trade right
01[15:31] {@Threei}  so far tensions and fights only intensify
[15:31] {nemo} IWM basically robot traded since 1:30
01[15:31] {@Threei}  we need to wean you of twitter, nemo...
[15:32] {nemo} just looking at the chart
[15:32] {nemo} what?  you think there are humans still working this afternoon?
[15:32] {nemo} even most of the algos left for the hamptons
[15:32] {Alexs} what signs nemo?
01[15:32] {@Threei}  some do, but it doesn't even matter
01[15:32] {@Threei}  any program is designed by human
01[15:33] {@Threei}  what difference does it make who pushes a button
[15:33] {nemo} narrow relatively uniform chart
[15:33] {_jaredt} oh, you guys are human here?

[15:35] {Alexs} I like torture :)
01[15:35] {@Threei}  it will be brutal...
[15:35] {_jaredt} is that why you day trade? ;)
01[15:35] {@Threei}  nemo will show you a bottle of Russian Standard
01[15:36] {@Threei}  not letting you touch it
