[09:35] {nemo} X
[09:36] {nemo} gmcr testing daily highs
01[09:38] {@Threei} Short Setup: GLD .95 break
01[09:38] {@Threei} If holds .05
01[09:40] {@Threei} Invalidated
01[09:40] {@Threei} Long Setup: FB 74 break
01[09:40] {@Threei} If holds .90
[09:41] {troub} dino, do you use vwap?
[09:41] {nemo} yes he does
01[09:42] {@Threei} Invalidated
[09:42] {dino} y
[09:42] {troub} mind saying how?
[09:43] {nemo} what does VWAP represent troub?
[09:43] {mib_stillstanding} google VWAP
[09:43] {troub} avg over past x period
[09:43] {mib_stillstanding} GLD never hit .05 but invalidated anyway. correct?
[09:43] {nemo} volume weighted
01[09:43] {@Threei} yes
[09:44] {nemo} your standard moving averages are price over time
[09:44] {nemo} VWAP indicates institutional involvement
[09:45] {mib_stillstanding} supposedly inst traders get bonuses for buying below vwap and selling above
[09:45] {nemo} yes
[09:45] {mib_stillstanding} whether any usefulness in trading????
[09:46] {nemo} so when price reacts at vwap, you have indications on whether there is institutional buying or selling
[09:46] {nemo} that's why you watch for reactions at vwap
[09:46] {troub} thanks, IP shows vwap.
[09:46] {troub} IB. trust of compute myself
[09:47] {troub} darn typing like Vad. trust or compute
01[09:47] {@Threei} told ya troub, it's contagious
[09:47] {nemo} for instance, currently iwm and spy are living under vwap so we know buying is too weak to hold it or exceed what selling there is
[09:47] {mib_stillstanding} good trading too?
01[09:47] {@Threei} but no, you had to be like "oh I can handle it"
[09:48] {nemo} what you will also find is that there is often a mean reversion where stocks only move so far away from vwap
[09:49] {mib_stillstanding} does vad use vwap?
[09:49] {troub} IB showing 114.73.
[09:49] {nemo} no vad does not
[09:51] {mib_stillstanding} does this chatroom work on android?
[09:51] {nemo} no only replicants
[09:51] {nemo} sorry...couldn't resist
01[09:51] {@Threei} chatroom doesn't care how you access it, it's just a browser
01[09:52] {@Threei} as long as android has browser, it should work, although some older versions might have troubles
[09:52] {nemo} news ROST?
01[09:52] {@Threei} earnings yesterday after close, ROST
[09:53] {troub} nemo, thanks for explain..
01[09:53] {@Threei} 16:01 [ROST] Reports Q2 $1.14 v $1.09e, R$2.73B v $2.72Be - Guides Q3 $0.83-0.87 v $0.86e, SSS +1-2% - Raises FY14 $4.18-4.26 v $4.23e (prior $4.09-4.21) - SSS +2% - Op margin 14.3% v 13.6% y/y
[09:53] {dino} dyn sm s .11 wide
[09:54] {nemo} Janet speaks in 6
[09:55] {nemo} btw...if you see a good stock stretch more than 1.5% from vwap look for reversion setups
[09:56] {mib_stillstanding} dangerous to trade in front of yellen. no?
[09:56] {nemo} short setups spy and iwm
[09:57] {nemo} if they stay under vwap
[09:57] {nemo} too funny VXX looks the same way
[09:57] {nemo} sheesh
[09:57] {nemo} talk about indecision
[09:57] {nemo} look gmcr and vwap
01[09:59] {@Threei} wow
[09:59] {nemo} yeah
[09:59] {nemo} saw that hammer on IWM
01[09:59] {@Threei} (US) Fed Chair Yellen: Remains unclear what the degree of labor slack is in the economy - comments from Jackson Hole symposium
[09:59] {nemo} they're really jerking it
01[10:00] {@Threei} - Tightening too soon might keep the labor market from recovering fully
01[10:00] {@Threei} lol... have you seen GLD?
[10:00] {dino} jetting janet, keep dropping the dollars
01[10:01] {@Threei} killed both sides within two minutes
01[10:01] {@Threei} - Rapid pace of retirements may pull forward due to weak job market - Inflation has been firming, thanks to both persistent price increases and transitory factors
[10:03] {nemo} troub, see how gmcr having trouble getting above vwap?
[10:04] {troub} yes ,127.02
[10:04] {mib_stillstanding} anyone here using lightspeed?
[10:05] {nemo} so they tested above it so far
[10:05] {nemo} which makes sense, a stock with that news will likely try to test the highs of the day
[10:05] {troub} nemo, IB showing 127.25 when GMCR was at .71??
[10:06] {nemo} yeah, depends on the package, but think of it as a magic marker line anyway
[10:06] {troub} OK now droped .64 with price at .41
[10:07] {nemo} gmcr has tested old support and stayed under, yet is basically sitting on vwap now,
[10:12] {nemo} here comes the test of the highs
[10:12] {mib_stillstanding} VWAP should not need number of bars as a parameter. correct?
[10:13] {nemo} it needs volume to calculate so as volume accrues it can be calculated
01[10:18] {@Threei} Long Setup: IWM .10 break
01[10:19] {@Threei} If holds 115
[10:21] {nemo} btw...because VWAP is volume weighted, the longer the day progresses, the harder it becomes to change it's slope
01[10:23] {@Threei} stop to .04
01[10:24] {@Threei} 1:1
01[10:24] {@Threei} by the book from here
[10:25] {mib_stillstanding} in at .11 trying to get half off at .21
01[10:26] {@Threei} take ,.20
[10:26] {mib_stillstanding} half off
01[10:26] {@Threei} it was at .22 a min ago, why troubles getting out at .21?
[10:27] {mib_stillstanding} got out at .21
[10:27] {mib_stillstanding} faster than i can type
[10:27] {mib_stillstanding} stop still at .04?
01[10:28] {@Threei} [10:24] {@Threei} by the book from here
01[10:28] {@Threei} 1:1 hit, stop .09
01[10:30] {@Threei} to .14
01[10:31] {@Threei} 1:2
[10:32] {mib_stillstanding} out rest at .30 . smooth
[10:33] {mib_stillstanding} did not want to hold longer as HOD at .35 .sensible?
01[10:34] {@Threei} personal preferences
[10:36] {mib_stillstanding} are you trying for 1:3,1:4
01[10:36] {@Threei} normally, yes
[10:40] {mib_stillstanding} IWM s
[10:41] {nemo} hard to say here, you're shorting into the hole
[10:42] {mib_stillstanding} looked like bear flag
[10:42] {nemo} not saying your wrong, but you're in the middle of the range right at vwap low volume Friday at end of August
[10:43] {nemo} what does that tell you?
[10:46] {nemo} chop chop chop
[10:46] {nemo} short at resistance buy at support
[10:46] {mib_stillstanding} lost 5 cents (demo)
[10:50] {mib_stillstanding} nemo you were right
[10:50] {dino} dyn cov .31, +.80
[10:50] {nemo} broken clock moment
[10:53] {troub} excel.Dino
01[10:53] {@Threei} wtg
[10:53] {dino} ty
[10:53] {nemo} I think VXX is long for the day
[10:55] {mib_stillstanding} keep logging off accidentally
[10:57] {mib_stillstanding} problem is when logged off you dont get to see running posts from earlier in the day. any way to fix this?
01[10:57] {@Threei} no
[10:58] {mib_stillstanding} i just pinned the tab in firfox which should help. no 'x' to click on.
01[11:24] {@Threei} Long Setup: FB .50 break
01[11:24] {@Threei} If holds .40
[11:24] {dino} calling it a day, tee time in hour. gl all
01[11:25] {@Threei} have a good weekend dino
01[11:25] {@Threei} beware of golf balls
01[11:25] {@Threei} and tennis elbow
[11:25] {troub} keep it in the fairway dino
[11:25] {dino} ty
[11:42] {mib_stillstanding} fb in at .51
01[11:53] {@Threei} (RU) Russia strategic bombers have been conducting patrols in neutral waters such as the Norwegian and North seas recently - Russia press
01[11:53] {@Threei} (UR) US Defense Official: Russia has up to 18,000 "combat ready" troops on its border with Ukraine, many units positioned two to ten miles from the border - CNN - Russian forces are more overt, more aggressive and out in the open - Minutes ago, NATO's Rasmussen said the alliance is seeing an alarming build-up of Russian ground and air forces stationed on the border of Ukraine; Russia continues to escalate the situation and deepen a crisis that Russia has created itself
[11:53] {mib_stillstanding} stop still at 40?
01[11:54] {@Threei} will trail after .55 break
[11:56] {mib_stillstanding} cup and handle now?
01[11:57] {@Threei} kind of
01[12:02] {@Threei} let's trail to .44
01[12:02] {@Threei} time for easy moves is over
[12:02] {mib_stillstanding} another horrible oversimplification:)
[12:03] {nemo} wish I had seen GMCR at that VWAP touch around 11
[12:03] {mib_stillstanding} nemo: no scanner for this?
[12:04] {nemo} I have nothing that pops up that info. it didn't quite make it. Freestockcharts has as an alert for when it touches, but not a proximity alert, which would be more helpful
[12:04] {nemo} VXX
[12:05] {nemo} can't hold below 28
01[12:10] {@Threei} meh
[12:10] {mib_stillstanding} out at .43

01[12:32] {@Threei} stop speaking in tongues. I have troubles understanding plain English on Fridays
01[12:33] {@Threei} or mondays
[12:33] {mib_stillstanding} i thought when you always said wtg you meant waiting..
01[12:34] {@Threei} no
01[12:34] {@Threei} it's common abbreviation for way to go
[12:36] {mib_stillstanding} any more trades expected today?
01[12:37] {@Threei} I would have to have time machine to answer that
[12:42] {mib_stillstanding} or you could take rest of day off..
01[12:59] {@Threei} Long Setup: WMT .90 break
01[13:00] {@Threei} If holds .80
[13:00] {nemo} IWM looks short below .46 if stays under .52
01[13:00] {@Threei} (UR) NATO: Russia artillery has been used against Ukraine, there are multiple reports of direct Russia involvement in the Ukraine issue - transfer of advanced weapons from Russia to separatists have been observed
