Nov 24 2014

It's a rare case that opening play lasts this long, but 1:4 is 1:4. Patience is a virtue. 

(Chart courtesy of a broker)

With a few more trades here and there, polished by a final run to almost 1:3 target on IWM, decent day despite slowness of a short week.

01[15:35] {@Threei}  my sense of humor is weird, wretched and occasionally callous
[15:36] {__chasj} well i caught it thats what matters
01[15:36] {@Threei}  then again, I have an excuse - I communicate with nemo for years
[15:36] {__chasj} now i understand
01[15:36] {@Threei}  and we did have that party on a boat...
01[15:37] {@Threei}  in Nassau
01[15:39] {@Threei}  ah, here it is
01[15:39] {@Threei}  (gently edited out)

[15:40] {dptl} lol
01[15:40] {@Threei}  are there so many variants?
[15:40] {__chasj} need nick names to coordinate
01[15:41] {@Threei}  when we run low on vidka, we found out that we are practically locked behind the table, no way to go around
01[15:41] {@Threei}  so, he just climbed onto the table and stepped over everything and everyone,
01[15:41] {@Threei}  went to the bar counter,
01[15:42] {@Threei}  realized that he doesn't want to do that again,
[15:42] {nemo} I'm convalescing
01[15:42] {@Threei}  so he grabbed a few full glasses of vodka, neat
[15:42] {__chasj} come on expose yourselves lol
[15:42] {dptl} lol
01[15:42] {@Threei}  and here is the kicker:
01[15:42] {@Threei}  next day I had full frikin day seminar!
[15:42] {nemo} oh yeah, that chick's husband didn't like me
01[15:42] {@Threei}  I mean as a soeaker
01[15:42] {@Threei}  speaker
01[15:43] {@Threei}  no he didn't
[15:43] {nemo} I kept telling her to pay attention to her husband
[15:45] {nemo} this being sick shit sucks
01[15:45] {@Threei}  1:2  IWM
01[15:45] {@Threei}  while nurturing last 1/4, yesterday's portrait I made:
[15:45] {__chasj} i thought maybe the pic was of the reality crew. thats why my crazy questions.
01[15:45] {@Threei}  https://www.facebook.com/VadymGraiferPhotography/photos/a.488848774527976.1073741828.483178015095052/750304858382365/?type=1&theater
01[15:46] {@Threei}  just me and nemo, chas... girls are seminar attendees
[15:46] {nemo} BTFD as always, governments buying stocks  FED and all central banks expanding balance sheets
[15:47] {__chasj} is that nemo next to you?
[15:47] {dptl} lol
[15:47] {dptl} roflol
[15:47] {nemo} yeah, back when I was seeing if I could grow my gray hair long
[15:47] {nemo} it's very short now
01[15:48] {@Threei}  and when I was 30 lbs heavier than I am today
[15:48] {__chasj} i had blk hair , dyed it grey HAHA
[15:49] {Jenh} 3i, did you add the black background to the peacock pic?
[15:49] {nemo} My hair was really curly when I was younger, all I could do was grow an afro...so the gray was straighter, thought I'd see what would happen.
01[15:49] {@Threei}  it was pitch black, I darkened it just a tad
[15:49] {nemo} Got to my shoulders and said, "o.k. did that."
[15:50] {Jenh} oh, really? nice. it's a great pic.
01[15:50] {@Threei}  flash lit peacock up
01[15:50] {@Threei}  ty
[15:50] {Jenh} i was wondering how you could get such a dark background, but if it was already dark...
[15:50] {Jenh} ah ic
[15:50] {__chasj} must have been good vodka
[15:50] {nemo} Vad doesn't drink bad vodka
[15:51] {dptl} :)
01[15:51] {@Threei}  otherwise would have to isolate the bird in photoshop, and paint the rest black... doable too if needed, kust requires time
[15:51] {jfjf64} 118
[15:51] {jfjf64} explode
[15:51] {Jenh} yeah that's what i was wondering, if you had to go around each one of those feathers
01[15:51] {@Threei}  yikes
