[12:51] {+cc_9} CTRL + F : ono
[12:51] {nemo} ach du lieber Gott!!
[12:52] {nemo} rht potential short...in the hole though, rather see a pull back to .20ish or .50ish
[12:52] {+cc_9} SPY needs a breather to at least 162.50 but hanging in there, next wall 163 flat
[12:59] {+cc_9} through it like butter
[13:00] {nemo} looks like it wants to recover all of yesterday
[13:01] {nemo} 163.50 is Monthly pivot, 163.80ish is weekly
[13:01] {+cc_9} people think its over-extended, but they are not looking at the daily
[13:01] {+cc_9} only @ short term frames
[13:01] {+cc_9} it can snap to 164 and still not even fully recover
[13:02] {+cc_9} tomorrow is expiration, many are bearish, thats the idea
[13:02] {nemo} getting prices back up for more distribution
[13:02] {Les} solid bounce and DB off 1600 S&P futures
01[13:03] {&Threei}  (ID) Magnitude 6.7 earthquake strikes 170km ENE of Flying Fish Cove, Christmas Island
[13:04] {+cc_9} Obama's war on christmas is getting too obvious
[13:04] {Les} that's in the middle of nowhere vad
[13:04] {nemo} very volcanic area
[13:04] {Les} well Indonesia is there
[13:04] {Les} but they don't count
[13:07] {Alexs} bby long .10?
01[13:08] {&Threei}  I doubt it...
[13:08] {+cc_9} BBY did nada all day while market moved
01[13:08] {&Threei}  yeah, jellyfish
[13:08] {Alexs} k
01[13:12] {&Threei} Short Setup: FB  .40 break
01[13:13] {&Threei}  If holds  .47 
[13:18] {Alexs} jellyfish BBY 1:1
[13:18] {+cc_9} in some SDS 40.20
01[13:19] {&Threei}  jellyfish with drive and determination :)
[13:19] {Alexs} lol
[13:19] {Les} yeh tza .66 here
[13:20] {+cc_9} careful Les, IWM stronger than S&P today
[13:21] {Les} k
[13:22] {ese} irm main lining at 29.00  will be going long just biding my time
[13:27] {+cc_9} needs a fade sub 162.80 SPY then we see some profit taking on this uptrend today
[13:28] {+cc_9} right now just slow grind, kinda boring
[13:33] {Alexs} jellyfish BBY 1:2
[13:34] {Les} half off .75 tza
01[13:34] {&Threei}  cc9... he will never let us live it down
[13:35] {Alexs} till FB make the same move
[13:35] {+cc_9} 4 cents, lets flush already, i have some SDS for sale
01[13:35] {&Threei}  to our excuse... BBY had news with MSFT
[13:36] {+cc_9} here we go
[13:37] {Les} get yer load er... off cc?
[13:38] {+cc_9} stacking them up
[13:38] {+cc_9} 28 29 30 31 etc...
[13:38] {+cc_9} so far unloaded 2 batches 26 and 27
[13:39] {+cc_9} i just need 32 and all gets flat
[13:39] {+cc_9} .32*
[13:41] {+cc_9} 28 & 29 taken
[13:41] {+cc_9} Les, my scalps are tiny, ~$0.10 on avg is what i look for, but i scale heavy
[13:42] {Les} sounds like principles similar to vads
[13:42] {Les} don't scale in though
[13:42] {Les} this pullback pretty lame
[13:42] {Les} market likes up apparently
[13:42] {Les} out on the scalp tza
[13:43] {Les} got dinner to serve brb
[13:43] {+cc_9} Les, these are principles I use for SSO / SDS
[13:44] {+cc_9} TNA / TZA I look for more
[13:44] {+cc_9} I rarely trade stocks, mostly ETFs
[13:44] {+cc_9} Once you sit through a halt and 50% gap, you start to like ETFs more
[13:44] {Will49} scaredy cat :)
[13:46] {+cc_9} I started this SSO/SDS strategy about 2 weeks ago, result here }}} http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/2072/tradese.jpg
[13:52] {Les} cc I am beating myself with a rod as I sit on TZA/TNA daily and learn to hold discipline until the appropriate setup. One day I'll wittle 9 errors to 1 good down to 1 for 1 good
[13:54] {+cc_9} Les, if you want my advice, get the technique down with SSO/SDS as they are a lot less volatile and only 1x 
[13:55] {+cc_9} Once you get the hang of it, move on to the leveraged ETFs
[13:56] {Alexs} what target do we have on FB?
01[13:57] {&Threei}  as a first target, want it to work
[13:57] {Will49} hahaha
[13:57] {Alexs} lol
01[13:58] {&Threei}  with .30 being somewhat of a support, if it breaks it... should give somemore, hard to tell
[13:58] {jdetente} working would be nice
01[13:58] {&Threei}  general market will determine
01[14:01] {&Threei}  someone take BBY from Alex's screen
01[14:03] {&Threei}  btw stev... remember our yesterday's exchange about this guy who did "new" study on the earthquake in BC?
01[14:04] {&Threei}  stumbled onto report about this on TV yesterday... you should see this busy and concerned look he wears running from room to room with pikle of paspers, looking at oscillographs
01[14:05] {&Threei}  urgency is written all over his forehead
[14:05] {Les} stop dissing experts Vad
01[14:05] {&Threei}  then voiceover talks about quake coming any moment within next 700 years
[14:05] {Les} what the heck would human beings do with their life if they couldn't be experts
[14:05] {Les} yeh same here in switzerland
[14:06] {Les} sooner or later... it's been 700 years, we should have one any century now
01[14:06] {&Threei}  I just want to suggest him to walk, not run...
[14:06] {Les} 2 mins. of fame
01[14:06] {&Threei}  new study my ass
01[14:07] {&Threei}  more like, grant expires
[14:07] {Will49} some people here think upgrading our schools is a waste of money
[14:07] {Les} absolutely Will
[14:07] {Les} why, I bet you used a board of slate in your day
01[14:07] {&Threei}  he talks about megathrust quake for crissakes
[14:07] {Les} and it did perfectly good
[14:07] {Will49} we are upgrading the public schools now
01[14:07] {&Threei}  if that one comes, whatever we upgrade or not will be demolished equally
[14:08] {dino} line drop
[14:08] {Les} seems to be the consumer fashion, end of times etc
[14:08] {Will49} les...we called them blackboards
01[14:08] {&Threei}  whole island might be swallowed as a matter of fact
[14:08] {Les} no, I meant a slate board, you know, like in Dickens' time

[15:32] {nemo} no longs..imo
[15:32] {Les} look at Nekkei and sP futures perfect DB's
[15:33] {nemo} after this run, the likelihood is the other way
01[15:33] {&Threei}  yeah, at this point it's a closing short or sit it out
01[15:33] {&Threei}  JPM is 54 short if anything
01[15:33] {&Threei}  off double top at 54.10
[15:35] {+cc_9} lol @ headfake
[15:35] {+cc_9} fade takes 5 candles, bounce takes half a candle and 10 seconds
[15:35] {nemo} yeah, this is amazing
[15:36] {+cc_9} about to tag shorts at 164
[15:36] {+cc_9} brutal

[15:36] {Will49} lol
[15:36] {nemo} such productive additions I've made to the blog's vocabulary
01[15:37] {&Threei}  we appreciate the contribution
[15:37] {nemo} this is set up for the classic bid pull
[15:37] {nemo} frankly, don't want to be in anything here
[15:38] {+cc_9} triple top on 1min SPY, volume picking up
[15:38] {+cc_9} breakout to 164 and more short covering
[15:39] {jdetente} this is a time to watch
[15:39] {jdetente} and watch only
01[15:39] {&Threei}  now sharp drop to trap new buyers would be nice
[15:39] {nemo} those are big boy bars on the spy
[15:40] {nemo} iwm is above yesterday's high
01[15:40] {&Threei}  really hate these clow climb days
[15:40] {jdetente} slow climbs even
01[15:41] {&Threei}  yeah, that
[15:41] {backman} GDX having a strong finish
01[15:41] {&Threei}  (US) WSJ's Hilsenrath: Fed is likely to push back against market expectations for a rate increase
01[15:41] {&Threei}  this propped this last push
[15:41] {+cc_9} i dont think we see any sharp drop Vad
[15:41] {+cc_9} the rape train goes only 1 way 
[15:42] {Alexs} JPM 1:1
[15:42] {nemo} God bless ya' Alex, but the probabilities were against you
[15:42] {jdetente} all aboard
[15:42] {jdetente} the train is boarding
[15:42] {+cc_9} slow grind slow grind, force people to slowly cover, then move the rape to over-drive
[15:42] {+cc_9} and force even faster shorting
[15:43] {nemo} we likely close that gap up around 165 tomorrow
[15:43] {+cc_9} why not today nemo
[15:43] {+cc_9} 15mins is a long time
[15:43] {Alexs} I didn't get it :)
[15:44] {+cc_9} not a single pullback on this last run
[15:44] {+cc_9} look @ volume last 15mins
[15:44] {nemo} yeah, that's amazing
[15:45] {+cc_9} no fade, no pullback, no breathing window if ur short
[15:45] {+cc_9} just lube
[15:46] {+cc_9} finally when you give up, throw the towel, then it fades
[15:46] {Les} not sure they're even offering lube
[15:46] {nemo} sand paper
[15:46] {Les} Sell in May just got screwed
[15:46] {nemo} sheesh, they're going for the gap fill today?!!!
[15:47] {+cc_9} no letting go nemo
[15:47] {+cc_9} max pain for opex tomorrow
01[15:47] {&Threei}  sell in may is pure unadulterated bs
[15:47] {+cc_9} that was the trick since pre-market
[15:47] {nemo} iwm has closed the gap
[15:47] {nemo} wow
[15:48] {+cc_9} if there is even a slight fade, it will be for a few cents
[15:48] {+cc_9} to give people false hope, then rape train goes in turbo mode
[15:48] {nemo} you like that word
[15:48] {+cc_9} its a long story...
[15:48] {Les} wondering why cc lives outside US jurisdiction
[15:49] {Will49} read all about you in an NSA leaked doc
[15:50] {+cc_9} any little fade, bounces right back
[15:50] {+cc_9} and the funny thing, is it won't take much volume to snap it back to highs
[15:50] {+cc_9} absolutely disgusting
[15:50] {nemo} no shorts in this area
[15:51] {+cc_9} only thing going on tomorrow is PPI
[15:52] {Will49} ?
[15:52] {+cc_9} Producer Price Index 8:30 AM ET
[15:52] {Will49} tks
[15:52] {+cc_9} Producer Price Index : PPI
[15:53] {+cc_9} http://www.bloomberg.com/markets/economic-calendar/
[15:53] {+cc_9} comes in handy
[15:53] {Will49} i wouldn't know what to do with the news anyway:)
[15:53] {dino} buy the dips. i've been saying it for weeks
[15:54] {Will49} have to wait for the gulag supervisor to tell me
[15:54] {nemo} yeah, wish I were here this morning, that SPY 50 day was a slam dunk
[15:54] {+cc_9} algo in full force on that last candle
[15:55] {+cc_9} 1.6M printed on 30 seconds
[15:56] {Les} nighty night
[15:56] {+cc_9} later folks
[15:56] {Will49} thanks for the entertainment, guys...see you tomorrow

[11:59] {Alexs} i remember it was half lot always just tool it 1/2
[11:59] {Alexs} took
01[11:59] {&Threei}  1:2
01[11:59] {&Threei}  that's fine Alex, it's still a bit too volatile
01[12:00] {&Threei}  these days are significantly slower than usual, so I felt safer about taking full lot
01[12:00] {&Threei}  but there is always room for some discretion

01[12:41] {&Threei}  B.C. is `in the risk zone' for mega-earthquake along the coast: study
01[12:41] {&Threei}  A new study says the Pacific coast has experienced 22 major earthquakes over the last 11,000 years, and is due for another.
01[12:41] {&Threei}  really? they needed a new study for that?
[12:43] {stevw} not sure how that adds anything to the same reports from 15 years ago
01[12:43] {&Threei}  key phrase that casn be decoded "fishing for a new grant":
01[12:43] {&Threei}  "Even though it could be tomorrow or perhaps even centuries before it occurs"
[12:44] {stevw} no offence, but if it happens soon, i'll rush in and buy some real estate at earthquake sale prices

[12:54] {Will49} that would knock over the BBQ
[12:54] {dino} out iep .04 +.41
01[12:56] {&Threei}  but mine is brick-and-mortar, will... self-built
01[12:57] {&Threei}  russians know it as "mangal"
01[12:57] {&Threei}  specifically for shishkebab
[12:57] {nemo} mmhhh, index shorts setting up again
01[12:58] {&Threei}  careful nemo
01[12:58] {&Threei}  more likely little pullback before continuing crawling up
[12:58] {nemo} yesh, I realize we are in the hole, would only look for resistance shorts
[12:59] {nemo} iwm and SPY bounced at channel support and FAS at WS1 so we might be done for the day, but SPY might want to test 162 again
01[13:00] {&Threei}  TGT *RAISES DIVIDEND 19%
01[13:00] {&Threei}  what's with rush of raising dividends?
[13:00] {nemo} keep stock price up because retail earnings are starting to suffer

[13:07] {+cc_9} look @ SSO / SPY now hehe
[13:07] {stevw} nice one Vad
[13:08] {dino} lulu bohica pattern
[13:08] {Les} had to go club a steak at the supermarket for dinner vad. exited flat
[13:08] {Les} closing time here
[13:11] {Will49} lol dino
[13:12] {Les} wow what news lulu?
[13:13] {Les} they lost sales after quitting the transparent tutu business?
[13:13] {RonS} CEO leaving...announced yest...unexpected...LULU
[13:13] {RonS} lulu beat...
01[13:13] {&Threei}  several downgrades
[13:15] {dino} lulu beat and raised guidance. ceo resigning
01[13:15] {&Threei} Long Setup:  GM  .60 break
01[13:16] {&Threei}  from the Imbecile Land:
01[13:16] {&Threei}  (EU) ECB's Asmussen: Bank's pledge to do whatever it takes to defend the eurozone remains valid, the OMT has made the ECB the strongest player in the market
01[13:17] {&Threei}  is he really proud of this?
01[13:17] {&Threei}  yes:
01[13:17] {&Threei}  - Notes that the the phrase 'dont fight the Fed' can now be applied to the ECB - Source TradeTheNews.com
01[13:17] {&Threei}  mama...
01[13:18] {&Threei}  just how screwed up their thinking should be to say all this with pride
[13:19] {Alexs} stop on GM?
01[13:19] {&Threei}  few things will deliver me more pleasure than seeing this idiotic construct collapsing
[13:20] {dino} out tol .80, +.30

[13:21] {dino} out eqix .99, +.35
01[13:21] {&Threei}  no go
[13:28] {Les} GDX delivers slowly but surely... without me
01[13:28] {&Threei}  yeah, 1;2
[13:35] {stevw} how do you like the setup on FCX?  just kidding
[13:35] {stevw} browsing for opportunities and had to laugh at how boring it's been relative to lots of action elsewhere
[13:41] {nemo} http://bit.ly/13Y0abI
[13:44] {Les} frikin conservative
[13:45] {nemo} it's funny Les, especially because my local team is the Patriots
[13:45] {jdetente} so do you think Darth Belichick will turn Tebow into a decent NFL player again?
[13:45] {jdetente} if anyone can it would be him
[13:45] {nemo} he may not even make the team...no guaranteed money
[13:46] {jdetente} smart
[13:46] {RonS} Nemo... Cautiously Bullishly Optimistically Paranoid http://stks.co/fZDv  via @Upsidetrader $SPX
[13:47] {nemo} Meanwhile, the Stanley Cup Finals start tonight
[13:47] {jdetente} should be a great series
[13:47] {Les} more hindenburg shit
[13:47] {Les} omens etc
[13:51] {Les} LULU ready for next dive or time to catch the bounce. not sure
[13:53] {nemo} coh might be coming into short territory
[13:53] {Les} I like it
01[13:54] {&Threei}  http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2013/06/hindenburg-omen-2/
[13:54] {nemo} here, and then 58 might be next level
[13:54] {+cc_9} Les
[13:54] {+cc_9} there goes SSO / SPY again
[13:55] {+cc_9} wash rinse repeat btfd
[13:55] {+cc_9} worst case scenario, you make money
[13:55] {nemo} dislocate shoulder  ;-)  Vad disease
01[13:56] {&Threei}  Most women desire someone who makes them laugh and feel safe, so basically clown ninja will do.
[13:56] {nemo} ;-)
[13:56] {+cc_9} i have yet to see an african american ninja
[13:57] {nemo} wasn't expecting that
01[13:57] {&Threei}  finally, time to buy FB:
01[13:57] {&Threei}  Facebook launches hashtags to let users add context and discover shared interests
[13:58] {stevw} shared interest = pathetic lives?
01[13:58] {&Threei}  that too
01[14:00] {&Threei}  *(US) MAY MONTHLY BUDGET STATEMENT: -$138.7B V -$136.5BE- Receipts: $197.1B v $180.7B y/y - Outlays: $335.9B v $305.3B y/y
[14:01] {dino} stop tlk .09, -.11
[14:01] {RonS} sequester devastating outlays, eh?
01[14:01] {&Threei}  uhhu
01[14:02] {&Threei}  so they collected 17 B more in taxes
01[14:02] {&Threei}  and spent 30B more
01[14:02] {&Threei}  and they tell us they will balance the budget at some point in ther future?
[14:03] {Les} hope for a better future
[14:05] {Will49} slow day question
[14:05] {Will49} what will stop the powers that be keeping this up for years?
[14:06] {Will49} from keeping this...
[14:06] {Will49} or decades?
[14:06] {dino} term limits
01[14:06] {&Threei}  well, you can't expand balance sheet endlessly
[14:06] {Will49} why not?
[14:06] {dino} yeah, just ask greece
01[14:06] {&Threei}  change in political climate is one thing
01[14:07] {&Threei}  loss of bodn buyers confidence is another
01[14:07] {&Threei}  bond
[14:07] {Will49} won't central banks buy the bonds?
01[14:07] {&Threei}  to a degree
01[14:07] {&Threei}  but that ends too
01[14:07] {&Threei}  as dino said...
[14:08] {dino} jobs drop
01[14:08] {&Threei}  if it were possible, we wouldn't have Greece situation
[14:08] {Will49} dino...doesn't congress have to vote for term limits?
[14:08] {dino} yes
01[14:08] {&Threei}  financing yourself by moving money from right pants pocket to left works only so long
[14:08] {Will49} so it'll never happen
[14:08] {dino} will never happen
01[14:09] {&Threei}  financing by pure printing press too
[14:09] {Will49} that's just a theory Vad
01[14:09] {&Threei}  basically this is music chair game
01[14:09] {&Threei}  not really
[14:09] {Will49} we are in uncharted waters here
01[14:10] {&Threei}  it's historically confirmed
01[14:10] {&Threei}  name me one country in history that survived by financing itself this way
[14:10] {Will49} so the only question is when?
[14:10] {Will49} not if
01[14:10] {&Threei}  if it were possible, where would any financing problem come from at all?
01[14:10] {&Threei}  everyone would print all they need and live happily
[14:11] {Will49} USA
01[14:11] {&Threei}  it is a matter of when, yes
[14:11] {Will49} so could be 50 years
01[14:11] {&Threei}  if nothing changes in policy, and it continues at this rate? no
[14:12] {Will49} not convinced
[14:12] {Will49} but afraid
[14:12] {ese} ok.....have done enough watchin for today....cyou all tomorrow
[14:12] {Will49} peace ese
[14:12] {ese} cya will
[14:13] {dino} don't fear it will, just react to it
[14:13] {Will49} peace order and good government:)
[14:13] {Will49} good advice dino
[14:13] {Les} lulu says down. too busy to grab setups today
[14:13] {Les} COH looks interesting for short here
01[14:14] {&Threei}  see will... it's difficult to envision when things look so traditionally stable for so long
01[14:15] {&Threei}  but if you lived through one society collapse, you gain different perspective
[14:15] {Will49} I'll bet
01[14:15] {&Threei}  when the findation is rotten and no one does anything to change it, moment comes and it falls apart with unimagihable speed
01[14:16] {&Threei}  I of course don't know how it looked from the outside,
01[14:17] {&Threei}  but from inside, USSR collapse was something no one couild imagine short few years before it happened
[14:17] {Les} COH bb's tightening at vwap resistance new move coming watching for setup
01[14:17] {&Threei}  USA has much better chance to avoid it though
01[14:18] {&Threei}  thanks to EU being first to fall apart and if US plays its cards right
[14:18] {dino} jobs sm l .57
[14:18] {Will49} that's my thinking...if they buck stays as reserve currency. who can hurt them?
01[14:19] {&Threei}  they'll hurt themselves if they don't change the course
[14:19] {Will49} and everybody else just follows along
01[14:19] {&Threei}  reserve or not, you need financing
01[14:19] {&Threei}  right now it comes from borrowing
[14:19] {Will49} print
01[14:19] {&Threei}  if nothing changes, sooner or later that will expire
[14:19] {Will49} my guess is later, a lot later
01[14:20] {&Threei}  printing is inflation, printing at the rates replacing borrown is hyperinflation
[14:20] {Will49} the elite won't let this slip thru their fingers
[14:20] {dino} iep sm l .22
01[14:20] {&Threei}  if borrowing dries up, troubles are unavoidable
01[14:20] {&Threei}  elite is not allmighty...
[14:20] {Will49} just keep feeding the big consumption machine
[14:21] {Will49} anyway, I guess we're beating a dead horse here
[14:21] {Will49} nobody knows
01[14:22] {&Threei}  nope, but the scary thing is:
01[14:22] {&Threei}  it includes Ben and company :)
[14:22] {Will49} good point
01[14:22] {&Threei}  they've no idea either
01[14:22] {&Threei}  and make it up as they go along
[14:22] {Will49} working so far
01[14:23] {&Threei}  only in a sense of putting out immediate fires
[14:23] {Will49} i'm not defending this....just my observations")

[14:26] {dino} iep stop -.34

01[15:19] {&Threei}  after spiking70 senc in 1 min, you have troubles making 10 cents now?
[15:20] {Alexs} what was that spike?
01[15:20] {&Threei}  news
01[15:20] {&Threei}  Apollo Group Inc BMO analyst note asserts the Dept of Education is delaying 'gainful employment' regulations on for-profit schools until July 2015
[15:21] {Alexs} ah ok
01[15:22] {&Threei}  1 : frikin 1
01[15:22] {&Threei}  I really wasnt squeeze on this one
01[15:23] {&Threei}  profit takers and shorts pounded it all the way back
01[15:23] {&Threei}  surely thwere should be those that view it as secondary entry opportinity plus some who still haven't covered
[15:24] {dino} emb drop
[15:28] {jdetente} more than 1:1 would be nice
[15:28] {jdetente} good way to end the day
01[15:29] {&Threei}  tell that to SPY...
01[15:30] {&Threei}  (TR) Istanbul, Turkey Govt reportedly announces a final warning to protestors to leave Taksim Square
[15:35] {stevw} don't look at GDX

01[15:36] {&Threei}  I will not look at GDX ever

[15:42] {Les} http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financialcrisis/10113280/UK-challenges-illegal-EU-power-to-ban-short-selling.html

01[15:43] {&Threei}  oh, just close eurotunnel
[15:43] {Les} or blow big equity bubbles
01[15:43] {&Threei}  won't happen thanks to short ban
01[15:44] {&Threei}  they tried it in many markets and sectors, never stopped decline when decline was warranted
[15:45] {Les} yeh
[15:45] {Les} but if no one can borrow
[15:45] {Les} then like china
[15:45] {Les} can blow bubble until..
[15:45] {Les} it bursts and everyone pulls out at same time
01[15:46] {&Threei}  that's the point - when it drops, there is no support
[15:46] {Les} I understand short sellers help stabilise those movements
[15:46] {Les} right
01[15:46] {&Threei}  it simply increases volatility by taking out whole class of players
01[15:46] {&Threei}  great protection, thank you very much

June 10 2013

A few nice plays, particularly IWM 1:4 catch, but overall, a lot of rinses, shakeouts and invalidations that left us in the red. See-saw Monday.


Session Time: Mon Jun 10 00:00:00 2013

[08:37] {nemo} Always look on the bright side of life...dada...dada...dadadadadada
[08:49] {nemo} UPRO split so will likely be more liquid to trade
[08:50] {dino} gm
01[08:50] {&Threei}  morning dino
[08:55] {nemo} dino, plug the market back in, will you
[08:56] {+cc_9} Morning gents
[08:56] {nemo} see they split UPRO 9?
[08:58] {stevw} nemo, i thought your line from that song would be "life's a piece of s**t, when you look at it"
[08:59] {nemo} I step out of character on occasion
[09:00] {stevw} no problem, we still have some crosses left
01[09:00] {&Threei}  cc9, stev :)
[09:00] {jdetente} Good morning...
01[09:00] {&Threei}  jd :)
[09:02] {nemo} Yes the Crack Suicide Cross of The People's Front of Judea, or was that the Judean People's Front?
[09:02] {stevw} serious question - what the heck is that premarket spread in GIL?
[09:02] {stevw} absolutely love the political and religious satire!!
[09:02] {nemo} why look?
[09:03] {stevw} i'm just curious how you get a $4.31 bid against a $44 offer
[09:03] {stevw} i accidentally typed the ticker symbol, actually
[09:04] {cipher} gm
01[09:04] {&Threei}  cipher :)
[09:08] {stevw} btw, i have a public service announcement for all canadians on the board
01[09:08] {&Threei}  loonie is no more?
[09:09] {stevw} no such luck - it's about my banking woes from last week
[09:09] {stevw} TD bank accidentally attached my ex-wife's account to my ATM card, 10 years after we had separated
01[09:09] {&Threei}  wow
[09:09] {stevw} my ATM deposits and withdrawals were going through her chequing account not mine
[09:10] {nemo} Can you sit down without pain?
[09:10] {stevw} and they say they're only responsible for things I catch within 30 days
[09:10] {nemo} talk to a lawyer
[09:10] {stevw} they're not responsible for what they did if it's older than 30 days
01[09:10] {&Threei}  that's pure unadeltered bs
[09:10] {_epach} morning
01[09:11] {&Threei}  morning epach
[09:11] {nemo} tardes
01[09:11] {&Threei}  they charged me for an account that turned out to be under their condition to be free, for about 7 years
[09:11] {stevw} i'll get it sorted somehow, but it's an alert to be vigilant with your banking records even or especially in this electronic age
01[09:11] {&Threei}  I phoned, asked to rfeturn the money
01[09:11] {&Threei}  they gave me this 30 days bs,
01[09:11] {&Threei}  I politely asked:
[09:12] {Alexs} gm
01[09:13] {&Threei}  do you mean to tell me that by your rules if I don't catch your error in time, my money somehow become yours, and you can dance "slipped one by him" dance? Us that what I quote on social medias, paper etc?
01[09:13] {&Threei}  alex :)
01[09:13] {&Threei}  she said "I'll be back with you in 2 min"
[09:13] {stevw} don't you love how they assume all the power and authority, but bugger all responsibility
01[09:14] {&Threei}  and returned advicing me in exctited tone that they reimburse whole 15 years of 14.99 monthly fee
[09:14] {_richa} If it would have been the other way around they would go back and correct it
[09:14] {stevw} rest assured i'll be having that type of discussion with the branch manager as a next step
01[09:14] {&Threei}  they did so within 1 hour
[09:15] {Will49} gm
01[09:15] {&Threei}  will :)
[09:15] {dino} gl stevw
[09:16] {jdetente} that's quite a quick change of tone on their part Vad. Scared the hell out of them I bet
[09:17] {backman} gm
01[09:17] {&Threei}  I geared up for a long battle with all levels of reps and supervisors
01[09:17] {&Threei}  bman :)
[09:17] {stevw} i need to adopt a russian accent and a beard maybe
01[09:17] {&Threei}  lol
[09:17] {jdetente} don't forget the pipe
01[09:17] {&Threei}  it was during that royal bank fiasco btw...
[09:17] {stevw} mmm, maybe not the pipe for the effect needed
[09:17] {Les} ...speaking of fiascos
01[09:17] {&Threei}  maybe they all were under strict "don't irritate clients" order
[09:17] {Les} good morning
01[09:18] {&Threei}  les :)
[09:18] {stevw} interesting entrance, les
[09:18] {robbers} I had the same situation, Vad, with SunTrust Bank and they reimbursed me.  But I had to get tough with them, LOL.
[09:18] {stevw} did you use your nickname?
01[09:18] {&Threei}  rofl!
[09:19] {robbers} LOL.  No, they wouldn't have done it in that case.  Very funny.
[09:19] {Will49} good one stev
[09:20] {stevw} i have my moments - but that's probably used up my wit for the rest of the day
01[09:20] {&Threei}  happens to me rgularly, and I switch to using nemo's
01[09:20] {&Threei}  that's why he looks so witless sometimes
01[09:21] {&Threei}  epach, look private message please

01[10:03] {&Threei}  yes but he said nothing resolute
01[10:03] {&Threei}  repetition of all "one side, on another side"
01[10:04] {&Threei}  (US) Fed's Bullard (moderate, FOMC voter): Weak inflation data could possibly argue for prolonging QE asset purchases; monetary policy is being buffeted by better growth and weaker inflation- Labor market has been improving since summer 2012. - Inflation is low due to soft commodity prices, weaker European and China economic growth. - US economic growth has not been spectacular. - There are few signs that Fed monetary policy moves are unsettling financial markets.

[12:02] {Les} was gonna throw the old gas bbq away for a new one. yer suggesting cooking with coal is the way to go?
[12:03] {nemo} yes Les, in a small shed with no windows and the door closed
[12:03] {RonS} ...and a gas can nearby?
[12:03] {Les} might wanna put a disclaimer on that advice dude
01[12:03] {&Threei}  I have both
01[12:03] {&Threei}  hourses for courses
[12:08] {jdetente} so Vad...why do they not rest the steaks?
[12:08] {jdetente} I've been programmed to rest after cooking...
[12:08] {robbers} I've been programmed to eat after cooking.
01[12:08] {&Threei}  rest is needed for big cuts of meat, for the juices to come back from center to the outer layers
[12:09] {Les} I do the opposite. sear it for colour and finish in oven
01[12:09] {&Threei}  in steak, there is not enough thickness for that
[12:09] {jdetente} ahh
[12:10] {Les} inverted cupa nd handle JPM
01[12:11] {&Threei}  according to the page I posted, that's wrong way to do it Les
01[12:11] {&Threei}  and this site sucessfully debunked so many grilling/smoking myths, it's not even funny

[15:33] {jdetente} well that about sums it up
01[15:33] {&Threei}  probably the most annoying day in last month or two
[15:33] {Les} everyone got their favourite time frame cc turnign green in 15 min and broke downtrend line and 3 min bullish divergence in MACD
[15:33] {patel} not a good day for me to return back.
[15:33] {+cc_9} CTSH .20s on deck, should be good for tomorrow.
[15:33] {jdetente} yeah, meh. Hit my threshold for the day. Going to call it. See you guys manana...
01[15:34] {&Threei}  you missed morning when we had couple big winners
01[15:34] {&Threei}  take care jd
[15:34] {nemo} caught IWM off the bottom
[15:34] {Les} taking a little more off CTSH here
[15:35] {Les} yeh you and bottoms are quite a pair Nemo
[15:36] {Les} I just gotta remember to ignore you vad on days like this
[15:37] {Les} it's funny how consistent the play is on these odd days out. probably means trend change in the works
[15:37] {nemo} Vad caught the bottom on IWM
[15:38] {Les} ah ok
[15:38] {nemo} trendless day after Memorial Day, summer trading has begun
[15:39] {Les} me 2 was short IWM before he chose tza everything else was under vwap
[15:39] {Les} iwm was the lynchpin holding it togethor today
[15:40] {~KSystems} nemo I've heard about that several times, that there are seasonal characteristics in the market, like summer trading or the second half of the year being different from the first
[15:40] {~KSystems} is there really such a thing that can be measured somehow?
[15:40] {Les} all out CTSH flat outta here a+ be in late if at all tomorrow
[15:40] {nemo} no doubt.  As you head into the Summer Mondays and Fridays tend to be quieter
[15:41] {nemo} look at volumes and the ATRs of the indices
[15:42] {nemo} What's interesting about these days, is you can see that it's mostly machines at work.  Long and short setups appear, they sense the order flow, and go the other way to bust the stops, at least in the indexes
[15:42] {Will49} they surely did that today
[15:43] {nemo} SPY volume is about 80 mil, 20 day average is 148 mil, 65 day average 129.5 mil
[15:44] {nemo} Vad, how many times during the Summer have you had to bandage your chin?
01[15:44] {&Threei}  dunno... summers are not created the same
01[15:44] {&Threei}  I had no complaints about last one
01[15:44] {&Threei}  was quite tradeablre
[15:45] {nemo} yeah, but we tend to have more untradeable days during the Summer
01[15:45] {&Threei}  gotta adjust of course
01[15:45] {&Threei}  sure
01[15:45] {&Threei}  and those that were nicely readable were still a bit differrnt from the rest of the year
01[15:46] {&Threei}  I guess I don't pay much attention to these things anynore because change is constant... it's an essence of the trading process
01[15:48] {&Threei}  after all this back and forth we are finishing about flat?
01[15:48] {&Threei}  SPY mocks us today
01[15:49] {&Threei} Short Setup: GDX  29 break
01[15:49] {&Threei}  If holds  .05

01[15:53] {&Threei}  that does it
01[15:53] {&Threei}  thank you all, have a good evening
01[15:53] {&Threei}  see you tomorrow
[15:53] {Will49} bye
[15:53] {nemo} oh, was talking about SPY
