Dec 13 2013

Despite being Friday 13, that was a very strong day for us. With one small stop, trades just worked and worked. Aside of all the usual suspects (C, JPM, GDX, GLD, FB etc, you know) we also got two strong trades on ADBE and one on LULU. Just to make a menu less boring, you know. Very nice week overall, mostly thanks to the last two days.

 Session Time: Fri Dec 13 00:00:00 2013

01[10:17] {Threei}  CNBC and bloomberg have some fine choices
[10:17] {fish_49} lol
[10:18] {Will49} they've cornered the market
[10:18] {fish_49} I suggest a CC talking head  to keep you busy after markets close
[10:18] {fish_49} lol
01[10:18] {Threei}  I'll pass, thanks
[10:18] {fish_49} lol
[10:18] {fish_49} lol
01[10:18] {Threei}  1:2
01[10:19] {Threei}  btw, speaking of adjusting to the market... you did notice this pattern of late, SPY sudden drops?
01[10:19] {Threei}  TZA trade was based on this
[10:19] {cc_9} you see now Will ?
[10:19] {cc_9} there is the tank :)
[10:19] {cc_9} VXX now going ;)
[10:19] {Will49} better late than...
[10:20] {Will49} broken clock is right twice...
[10:20] {Will49} etc etc
[10:20] {cc_9} w/e you say
[10:21] {cc_9} SPY needs to lose this 177.80 for a proper dog tank
[10:21] {fish_49} Speaking of Patterns  I used your DB pattern in the book (PG 143) on a 5 min  to get 25 ticks on the Crude Oil Contract
[10:22] {fish_49} perfect picture  first drop outside BB's  second drop just inside BB's
01[10:23] {Threei}  :)
01[10:23] {Threei}  amazing how these things work over and over
[10:23] {cc_9} and there you have it Will
[10:23] {fish_49} Trading is the hardest Easy money I have ever earned
[10:24] {Will49} ok, i give
01[10:24] {Threei}  well... thing to remember is,
01[10:24] {Threei}  market is the easiest place to make money,
01[10:24] {Threei}  and the hardest place to keep it.
01[10:25] {Threei}  Thus, risk control is paramount
01[10:25] {Threei}  that's what allows you to keep what you make
[10:25] {fish_49} yes  this is why I use hard stops  lol
01[10:25] {Threei}  anyone can make money when get the setup right
01[10:25] {Threei}  what separates men from boys is how you act when you get it wrong
[10:25] {cc_9} GILD 15min looks tired
[10:26] {Will49} hey fish...the "hover" method is superior to hard stops
[10:26] {dino} profuts=luck; losses=skill
[10:26] {dino} profits too
01[10:26] {Threei}  see full internet of people who can't take their stop for the world of them
[10:26] {Will49} goverment approach
01[10:26] {Threei}  see them whine about their huge losses
01[10:26] {Threei}  blaming damn manipulators
01[10:26] {Threei}  fed
01[10:26] {Threei}  government
01[10:27] {Threei}  talking heads
01[10:27] {Threei}  neighbor's dog
[10:27] {nemo} wow, weak side really filling out on algo
[10:27] {Will49} haha Vad
01[10:27] {Threei}  meanwhile the only person to blame is themselves
01[10:27] {Threei}  it was up to them to take small loss
[10:27] {fish_49} Will the hover method works well until you lose data connection
[10:27] {fish_49} lol
[10:27] {cc_9} SPY for now held yesterday's lows
[10:27] {cc_9} GDX new highs
[10:27] {Will49} true fish
01[10:27] {Threei}  but no, they had to get all proud and strong and prove they were right
[10:28] {dino} twc spike
[10:29] {dino} missed it
[10:29] {cc_9} Charter to offer TWC under $140.00

[10:31] {fish_49} Vad if ur not busy look at CAT
[10:31] {fish_49} a pull back into around .67 then rally tto gap fill?
[10:31] {cc_9} I'm waiting for 2PMish, when Vad slips in his jammies and takes a nap
[10:31] {cc_9} then the jokes will come out
[10:31] {cc_9} i dont want to get banned on a Friday
01[10:32] {Threei}  lol
[10:32] {nemo} why?  he has all weekend to calm down and let you back in on Monday
01[10:32] {Threei}  but fish... I am really busy NOT looking at CAT
[10:32] {nemo} the worst that could happen is if you go and visit he makes you stay with ese
[10:32] {fish_49} ok  play with your CC talking head  then
01[10:33] {Threei}  .67, I doubt it'll go that low
01[10:33] {Threei}  and if it does, we will need some new pattern
[10:33] {fish_49} .70
01[10:33] {Threei}  as it stands, .85 break is long setup
[10:33] {cc_9} TWC back to lows
01[10:33] {Threei}  not powerful enough to get me interested
01[10:34] {Threei}  but it's a valid setup
[10:34] {fish_49} 15 minute setting up a C&H
01[10:34] {Threei}  if loses .75, no read until something new shapes up
01[10:35] {Threei}  (US) Reportedly FBI to hold press conference later today to discuss arrest involving a "national security matter" - twitter sources

[13:23] {Will49} that'd work
[13:25] {fish_49} yuck

[13:30] {Will49} hey fish...do you think Vad put a hrad buy stop on LULU?
[13:30] {Will49} hard
[13:31] {fish_49} lol
[13:32] {fish_49} I'm sure he has his secretary taking care of it while he changes batteries  in his camera
[13:32] {Will49} maybe he's onto the OCA technique that cc suggested
[13:33] {fish_49} OCA?  Order Cancels All?
[13:33] {Will49} yes
[13:33] {Will49} one cancels all
[13:34] {Will49} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYSXRbXg-pY
[13:36] {fish_49} yea  OCO
[13:36] {fish_49} I use them
[13:36] {Will49} yeah..cancels "other"
[13:37] {cc_9} Once Cancels Other
[13:37] {fish_49} correct  on my platform  they are used for two reasons
[13:37] {fish_49} 1.  if your in the trade and forgot to place target and stop
[13:37] {fish_49} or 2.  Wrap orders around a break out  or break down  which ever  hits  cancels  the other
[13:37] {Will49} neat
[13:38] {cc_9} OCO is a very useful tool, glad to see someone using it
[13:38] {fish_49} that is the class I teach once in awhile at the training center I attend

[13:55] {Will49} he might knock me over
01[13:56] {Threei}  well, this is punishment, isn't it
[13:56] {Will49} right over my head Vad
[13:57] {Will49} the other part of the punishment is having to fly Air Canada to Toronto
[13:58] {Will49} flying Westjet to Maui this time even though it's more expensive
01[13:58] {Threei}  yup... no westjet

[14:02] {Will49} see
[14:02] {nemo} S1=177.647
[14:03] {nemo} S2=177.15
[14:03] {nemo} I think we've topped out on the indexes for the day
[14:03] {fish_49} I have an indicator on my platform for floor trader pivots
[14:04] {fish_49} wanted to see if accurate
[14:04] {dino} 07 red
[14:04] {nemo} likely are, have to find out from where the data is pulled and what calculations they are using
[14:05] {fish_49} it shows S1 at 178.27
[14:05] {nemo} what platform?
[14:05] {fish_49} Trade Station
[14:05] {nemo} mmmhhhh
[14:05] {fish_49} and showing S2 at 178.03
[14:06] {nemo} I'm looking at freestockcharts, and on my spreadsheet, which pulls data from yahoo, they are the same
[14:07] {fish_49} if on a 5 min char it's numbers match up with the numbers you gave me
[14:07] {nemo} time should be irrelevant to pivot calculations
[14:07] {fish_49} I agree
[14:07] {nemo} unless, the pivots are dynamically developing
[14:07] {fish_49} we just pierced S2?
[14:08] {nemo} that Pivot Boss guy has an indicator that calculates pivot levels throughout the day-Ochoa, it might be part of their package
[14:09] {fish_49} Resistance Level 3 = R3 = R2 + YestHigh - YestLow
[14:10] {nemo} my r3 =H+2*(PP-L)

Dec 12 2013

Successfully shorting a bank in the morning - good way to start the day


With the rest of the day providing us with 1:3ers, 1:2ers and a few scalps, the day was almost perfect. GLD short for 1:3 as a finishing touch.

Session Time: Thu Dec 12 00:00:00 2013
[08:41] {fish_49} hmmm retail sales good but jobless claims increased.  Mixed bag of news  but the jobs report rules in my opinion..  perhaps the fear of Taper will go away for another month. and we see a bit of a rally today
[08:45] {fish_49} Nice push up on the indexes
[08:59] {barbo} GM

[09:19] {RonS} ...sounds like nemo making a market call...oops
[09:19] {cc_9} SPY dropping ahead of the bell

[09:19] {cc_9} My list today : GILD - GDX - XIV - LL - DGAZ - LULU - CIEN - P
[09:20] {cc_9} too bad CIEN already made a full $2.00 comeback pre-open
[09:20] {fish_49} Cien  is aon the long list?
[09:20] {cc_9} That was a good dip buyer
[09:20] {cc_9} "Cien is aon the long list?". You wat mate ?
[09:20] {mrcanada} CC-9...where do u get the stocks that make up your list each day?
[09:21] {mrcanada} ie...what criteria do u look for?
[09:22] {cc_9} the same criteria everywhere : buy low sell high
[09:22] {mrcanada} how do u find them?  what service do u use?
[09:22] {cc_9} hopefully LULU does something similar, altho they missed on guidance
[09:23] {RonS} sorry in advance...can't help myself this a.m.
[09:23] {cc_9} NSA stock filter
[09:23] {mrcanada} NSA?
[09:23] {cc_9} I use The Fly on the wall to see whats up/down pre-market and why
[09:23] {cc_9} then take it from there

[09:24] {fish_49} CC had nails for breakfast today

[09:24] {cc_9} kinda late on that bounce play Ron
[09:25] {cc_9} if drops to 118 good for starter
[09:25] {cc_9} that stock always moves in $2.00 increments as far as wall/supports go
[09:26] {fish_49} CIEN bounce on .50?
[09:26] {fish_49} It was a serious question CC was that on your long list?
[09:26] {cc_9} CIEN was nice off $21.00 for breakout
[09:26] {cc_9} CIEN was on my long list for today yes, but it already ran up, so unless it tanks, wont touch
[09:26] {cc_9} i only buy dips
[09:27] {cc_9} look @ pulpy IMUC lol

[10:23] {fish_49} The business inventories released by the US Census Bureau measures the monthly percentage changes in inventories from manufacturers, retailers, and wholesalers. The sales figures do not move the markets as they do not reflect personal consumption
[10:23] {dino} well they move me
01[10:23] {Threei}  and we are publishing them just for the kicks.

01[10:25] {Threei}  colocation
[10:25] {Will49} i figured he had connections
[10:25] {fish_49} let me look that one up Vad
[10:25] {Will49} sounds painful Vad
01[10:25] {Threei}  welcome to the dark world of HFT, fish
01[10:26] {Threei}  I dunno will... cc9 seems to be enjoying it
[10:26] {fish_49}  a noticeable arrangement or conjoining of linguistic elements (as words)
[10:26] {fish_49} however,  in that meaning there are 2 L's
[10:27] {fish_49} lol
01[10:27] {Threei}  ok... look up in trading context
[10:27] {Will49} colo-cation=sitting with finger up your butt waiting for quote server to come back

Dec 11 2013

Not really our day as morning generated a few too many stops in a low volume patternless movements. A few scalps and one 1:3er in the afternoon took some sting off but still left us in the red.

Session Time: Wed Dec 11 00:00:00 2013

[08:42] {fish_49} where is everyone?  The market closed today?  lol  No premarket routine?  slackers....
[08:48] {nemo} smells like fish in here
[08:48] {fish_49} ever smelled a fish fart?
[08:48] {nemo} seen the bubbles
[08:49] {nemo} actually now that you mention it, was diving the Great Barrier Reef...saw this fish take a dump right in front of me...that was different
[08:49] {fish_49} Mortgage Apps huge jump
[08:49] {fish_49} and we have Sec Lew Speech today
[08:49] {nemo} spy volume pretty low this morning
[08:50] {fish_49} Lew Speech impact themarkets normally?
[08:50] {nemo} no...Fed next week
[08:50] {fish_49} a budget deal last night so no closing GOV
[08:51] {fish_49} ahhh perhaps it will be a slow vol day today waiting retail sales tomorrow?
[08:53] {nemo} probably...also, things are likely to become more stock specific as opposed to indexes...
[09:00] {barbo} GM
01[09:01] {Threei}  morning barbo
[09:01] {mrcanada} gday
01[09:01] {Threei}  mrc
01[09:01] {Threei}  shouldn't both houses still vote on a deal?
[09:01] {drewj} gm all
01[09:01] {Threei}  drew
01[09:02] {Threei}  I am not sure why it sounds like deal is reached when it's merely preliminary document to present for approval
[09:02] {mrcanada} don't understand all these deals in the U.S. government about budget....just do it each year
[09:04] {nemo} oh mrcanada, don't be silly
[09:04] {nemo} today is looking very dead
[09:05] {fish_49} my gut feeling is it will pass Vad
[09:05] {mrcanada} why does the U.S. do it every month?
[09:05] {fish_49} lol
[09:06] {fish_49} because we have nothing better to do in Washington
[09:06] {nemo} mrcanada...don't ask questions that cannot be answered
[09:06] {mrcanada} o I c
01[09:06] {Threei}  mine too fish
01[09:06] {Threei}  but still, it sounds like two senators agreed, and that's all
[09:07] {barbo} has to be passed by the house and senate then signed by Obama to become law.
01[09:07] {Threei}  right
[09:07] {fish_49} The far right should object but when it comes down to it they must pass it because this is the first time the Dems and Repubs have actually worked together.  They will let this slide  to live another day
01[09:07] {Threei}  mrc... every month?
01[09:07] {Threei}  it's an annual deal
01[09:08] {Threei}  it's FOMC rate set that occurs every month
[09:08] {fish_49} it was a joke Vad
01[09:09] {Threei}  with today's state of affairs in US, it's difficult to say where joke ends :)
[09:09] {fish_49} We in the US still trying to get budget passed for 2012
[09:09] {fish_49} lol
[09:09] {mrcanada} hahaha
[09:09] {mrcanada} yes....but atleast u don't have to pay any taxes then...
[09:10] {fish_49} Gov Employees and retirees  took a big hit but it could have been worse
[09:10] {mrcanada} so then the government saved $$
[09:11] {mrcanada} to put against the debt?
[09:11] {fish_49} The way Im reading it, it's future money  nothing immediate
[09:12] {mrcanada} do they pay much to retirees in the U.S. ?
[09:13] {Will49} gm
[09:13] {fish_49} lol
01[09:13] {Threei}  will :)
[09:14] {fish_49} MRC the GOV retiree pay is from a pension, 401K and social security which usually adds up to about 80% of working salary
[09:14] {dino} gm
01[09:14] {Threei}  dino :)
[09:15] {mrcanada} that's better than in Canada....
[09:16] {mrcanada} at least according to my inlaws...that sounds better
[09:17] {fish_49} are the CDN Gov  workers?
01[09:17] {Threei}  if you are in Victoria, about hallf of them are, fish
[09:19] {fish_49} ahhhh
[09:19] {fish_49} back when I started with the Gov , nobody wanted my job
[09:19] {fish_49} now that the economy is bad, they are crying that I earned too much
01[09:21] {Threei}  not very active pre-market
[09:21] {nemo} It's not so much that fish, it's that there are no market forces that act on government compensation.  There's one customer the taxpayer, and they, in all reality, have no power at all
[09:22] {nemo} [09:05] {nemo} today is looking very dead
[09:22] {nemo} mmmhhh, where's knuckles this morning?
01[09:22] {Threei}  you are so melodramatic
01[09:23] {Threei}  do you consider everyone who is not very active to be very dead? {G}
[09:23] {fish_49} hahahahha
[09:23] {fish_49} good point  VAD
[09:23] {nemo} o.k....today is looking somnolently lethargic
01[09:23] {Threei}  lol
[09:24] {fish_49} Will not dead  Nemo

[10:20] {dino} pretty good decline
[10:20] {cc_9} I'm selling GILD only when over $72.00
01[10:20] {Threei}  if this doesn't work, I'll leave to nemo to invent something new so he doesn't berate me for recycling jokes
[10:20] {cc_9} Ackman type trade "will stay with it till the end of the world"
[10:21] {cc_9} CYTR tried a little under $4.00 but not enough pressure on it
[10:21] {cc_9} SPY getting a leg, lets see if GILD reacts up with it here
01[10:22] {Threei}  Invalidated
[10:23] {cc_9} SPY headfake central
[10:25] {cc_9} GILD going for triple bottom
[10:27] {cc_9} GILD must hold 71.20 LOD range here
[10:27] {cc_9} SPY putting major drag
[10:27] {cc_9} VXX still at highs
[10:27] {cc_9} today's direction = throw a dart
01[10:28] {Threei}  pretty much
01[10:28] {Threei}  every time pattern forms, sudden move against it ruins the setup
01[10:29] {Threei}  this kind if days is relatively rare, but I hate them nonetheless
[10:30] {cc_9} energy inventories out
[10:30] {cc_9} w/e the numbers are, SPY wants to crash anyways

01[10:33] {Threei}  that's some bid at .70
[10:33] {cc_9} selling the fear is never a smart trade
[10:33] {nemo} figure they'll try to shake this whole number level for stops
[10:34] {cc_9} yes
[10:34] {cc_9} so im sticking with it for now
[10:34] {cc_9} ill shave off once gets back 71.40s
[10:34] {cc_9} right now just need VXX to slow the f down so we get a dead cat
[10:35] {cc_9} never ever ver sell the fear
01[10:35] {Threei}  ok... it's official
01[10:35] {Threei}  should go back to bed now
[10:35] {cc_9} SPY trying a little here, GILD somehow finding no love
[10:35] {fish_49} did CC say Sell CAT?
[10:36] {cc_9} very straight since it was the most loved on the first 2 sell-offs
[10:36] {cc_9} strange*
[10:36] {cc_9} GILD should be bouncing ahead of the market here, no dice for now :(
[10:37] {dino} pdce re-load .35
[10:37] {cc_9} GILD needs through 71.20s for love
[10:38] {cc_9} CYTR i could not get much under $4.00, took what I could
[10:38] {cc_9} focusing on GILD only for now
[10:40] {cc_9} SPY nobody stepping here for now
[10:40] {cc_9} needs through 179.90 to get some bids
[10:41] {cc_9} LL on the other hand is bouncing and back to green
[10:42] {fish_49} Did Vad really go back to bed?  lol   Vad no trading in PJ's  it's not allowed
[10:42] {cc_9} GILD .30s come on SPY dont fail me now

01[10:46] {Threei}  I am not sleeping... I am too busy packing finest wines and cheeses for trading gods
[10:46] {cc_9} finally catching bids, SPY comes flushing it all back to lows
[10:47] {cc_9} on a good note, VXX is not upticking much for now, so maybe bottom for SPY is in
[10:47] {nemo} this is s3 daily for spy
[10:47] {nemo} and finnies
[10:47] {nemo} s2 iwm
[10:48] {cc_9} LL so far so good, staying with it till $92

[10:58] {cc_9} nvm, error print
[10:58] {cc_9} SPY trying some
[10:59] {cc_9} GILD lagging, needs 71.40
[10:59] {cc_9} VXX coming down here under 46
[10:59] {cc_9} jeez GILD, get it together....
[10:59] {nemo} .60 the likely roof on gild
[11:01] {cc_9} you're saying thats the top ?
[11:01] {cc_9} im not sure about that
[11:01] {cc_9} GILD once cracks 71.40 should be good till at least 71.80 double top
[11:01] {nemo} likely=probable
[11:01] {nemo} not sure
[11:01] {cc_9} GILD volume coming in
[11:03] {cc_9} SPY must taget 180 for BTFD signals
[11:03] {cc_9} VXX under 45.90 should be nice
[11:04] {cc_9} of course not...why should SPY get to where it needs to be then flush again
01[11:05] {Threei}  here it comes cc
01[11:05] {Threei}  .40 break and, ummm, iksplozhion
[11:05] {cc_9} needs to be in tandem here Vad
[11:05] {cc_9} SPY must cooperate so GILD gets some breakout love
01[11:05] {Threei}  this is how you spell it, right?
[11:05] {cc_9} anything over 180.10 will be great
01[11:05] {Threei}  or is it eeqsplozhion?
[11:06] {nemo} today
[11:06] {nemo} today's action would imply a roof on spy of 180.10
[11:06] {cc_9} god damn it
[11:06] {nemo} or, I'm inferring said roof
[11:06] {cc_9} it takes GILD 40 minutes to reverse $0.40
[11:06] {cc_9} and with 1 SPY downtick loses it all
[11:07] {nemo} looks like db 3minute vxx
[11:08] {cc_9} god damn it...
[11:08] {cc_9} every single time GILD gets a bid, SPY comes ruining the party
[11:11] {cc_9} when the hell are we going to get our fast and furious SPY bounce today....
[11:11] {nemo} spy hit the telephone pole today
[11:11] {cc_9} so far nothing but sideways boredom
[11:14] {cc_9} SPY another tank on the way, VXX moving higher

[11:14] {cc_9} damn it
[11:15] {nemo} spy bearflaggish
[11:15] {cc_9} VXX going, SPY about to lose it
[11:15] {cc_9} on a good note : 10:42 cc_9 long some LL here for bounce to 92
[11:15] {cc_9} HOD was indeed 92 on the nose
[11:16] {cc_9} sell algos about to trigger for flush
[11:17] {cc_9} SPY another LOD test
[11:17] {dino} good girl pdce
[11:17] {cc_9} GILD trying very hard to hold here while market dumping
[11:19] {cc_9} FB is a new inverse SPY ETF
[11:21] {cc_9} GILD come on, hold it together while we get passed this phase
[11:21] {fish_49} get'm Nemo
[11:22] {nemo} spy 179.48 is S4  we only get there 3% of the time
[11:23] {cc_9} so you're saying BTFD ?
[11:23] {nemo} I'm not implying anything, I stated exactly what I was thinking
[11:23] {cc_9} ok guys, nemo said btfd
[11:23] {dino} out pdce .45, +1.10
[11:24] {nemo} just like my frickin' girlfriend
[11:24] {nemo} sheesh
[11:24] {fish_49} I think Nemo was a Lawyer in his previous life
[11:24] {dino} nobody followed pdce?
[11:25] {cc_9} i think we get 1 more SPY flush to get all intraday stops
[11:26] {nemo} monthly pivot is 179.20  iwm 50 day approx: 109.80
[11:27] {cc_9} so let me get it straight
[11:27] {cc_9} SPY tanks, GILD tries to hold up
[11:27] {cc_9} SPY tries to bounce, SPY goes down
[11:27] {cc_9} ok, got it now
[11:27] {nemo} call Les, he'll explain it to you
[11:31] {cc_9} no mercy on SPY today, 0 buyers for now
[11:31] {cc_9} back and forth nonsense at session lows, i.e wants to flush lower
[11:31] {cc_9} getting ready for another SPY crash
[11:31] {cc_9} and there it is
[11:34] {cc_9} on a sidenote, GILD is not crashing....
[11:34] {nemo} iwm checked 110
[11:37] {nemo} vxx dt?
[11:37] {cc_9} SPY tagged 179.50 on the nose, round #
[11:38] {cc_9} if SPY can get 179.75, going to pick up some XIV
[11:39] {cc_9} SPY wants another leg down
[11:39] {cc_9} VXX just upticking at highs
[11:40] {cc_9} this is far from a normal "btfd" day on sell-off, this looks like people are cashing out for 2013 all together
01[11:40] {Threei} Long Setup:  TZA  .95 break
[11:40] {nemo} ok Ving

[11:49] {cc_9} this is where GILD should be moving higher now that SPY somewhat stable...
[11:49] {RonS} dino, LH...
[11:51] {dino} on it
[11:51] {cc_9} ron, LH imo same as ULTA / LL
[11:51] {cc_9} needs 24 hours to find bottom first
[11:51] {dino} iep new lod
[11:51] {cc_9} ULTA did same, crash first day, went next day
[11:52] {cc_9} LL crash first day, bounce next day
[11:52] {RonS} dino iep...icahn selling $2 mil more new shares...has not priced
[11:53] {RonS} -$
[11:53] {cc_9} SPY way too close to LOD for comfort
[11:53] {cc_9} and splat...back to fresh lows on index
[11:54] {dino} ron, lh downgrade city, lowered guidance.
[11:54] {dino} over daily goal, so getting picky here
[11:54] {dino} brb
[11:55] {cc_9} GILD largest volume block all day
[11:55] {cc_9} looks like it was buyers
01[11:56] {Threei}  TZA... just a scalp...
[11:57] {cc_9} anyone else see the volume surge on GILD 1/2min ?
[11:57] {nemo} I see it now
01[11:57] {Threei}  was it one block or a lot of smaller prints?
[11:58] {cc_9} not really sure, but it happened twice
[11:58] {cc_9} should get more volume if gets back over .20
[11:59] {RonS} PCYC
[11:59] {cc_9} XIV fast uptick, market should go now
[12:00] {cc_9} GILD losing bids...what a migraine of a trade
[12:00] {cc_9} i should just ell so it goes to 72
01[12:01] {Threei}  - Rep Ryan and Senator Murray announced their $85B budget package last night. The agreement would undo $63B of sequester cuts that are set to take place over the next two years and puts 2014 spending at $1.012T, higher than the $967B that would have taken effect under the sequester law on Jan 15th. The package does not include an extension of unemployment insurance demanded by Democrats. The modest deal has already drawn heavy criticism from fiscal conservatives, even as senior Congressional Republican leaders voiced their support. S&P called the modest deal a positive.
01[12:01] {Threei}  - It appears that a truce in the budget battles of the last several years may be in the offing this morning, offering hope that one of the last major source of uncertainty for the recovery could be dragged out of the way. And as usual, this very good news may be inspiring many participants to bet on an earlier taper and to sell, sell, sell.
01[12:02] {Threei}  by the way, the guy who came up with word "Dectaper" must be taken out and shot
01[12:02] {Threei}  I mean, no one appreciates butchering language more than I do, but this is just lame
[12:03] {RonS} pcyc sm l .30
[12:03] {nemo} Pot meet kettle
[12:03] {cc_9} SPY 179.70 previous intraday support now wall
[12:03] {cc_9} we are stuck in a $0.20 channel on SPY
[12:04] {cc_9} 179.50 - 179.70, therefore, need at least 179.80 to start reversing
[12:04] {cc_9} damn it all to hell, lets go -500 today to get it over with already
[12:05] {nemo} tested s4 daily spy twice
[12:07] {cc_9} proper crash, no way around it
[12:08] {cc_9} and this so far today aint even the crash yet
[12:09] {cc_9} looks like GILD really wants LOD test :(
[12:12] {nemo} finnies holding the monthly pivot, spy trying to hold daily S4, looks like they're trying to get IWM to the 50 day
[12:13] {cc_9} yes, IWM so far biggest drag
[12:13] {nemo} this monthly on finnies also daily S4
[12:13] {nemo} No CC
[12:14] {cc_9} soon as we see 179.60, i think bottom for day is put
[12:14] {nemo} lowest I think possible is .20
[12:15] {nemo} IWM 50 day
[12:16] {cc_9} SPY absolutely no bottom
[12:16] {cc_9} each small bounce gets dumped, nonstop since 11AM
[12:16] {cc_9} it wants under 179
[12:16] {cc_9} about to get brutal
[12:17] {nemo} got 2 levels to get through
[12:18] {cc_9} GILD they finally crashed it
[12:18] {cc_9} VXX soaring, shits about to get super ugly
[12:19] {nemo} spy tested monthly, finnies kinda holding
[12:19] {dino} ron pcyc, you in at 108.30 ?
01[12:21] {Threei}  frikin TZA

[12:21] {nemo} you're so stretched to the downside Vad
[12:21] {cc_9} GILD all out crash
[12:21] {dino} thx
[12:22] {cc_9} GILD held through the SPY pullbacks, but they are fast dumping it now, almost as if they are going at it sector at a time liquidation
[12:23] {cc_9} GILD now testing yesterday's lows, ultra ugly now that lost 71 for good
[12:23] {cc_9} SPY no sign of reversal, slow decay
[12:23] {dino} sitting, waiting...
[12:24] {cc_9} no floor on SPY...she wants under 179
[12:25] {nemo} fill that gap
01[12:25] {Threei}  (US) ShopperTrak: In-store shopper activity falls following busy Thanksgiving shopping period- Consumers spent a majority of last week recovering from "Black Weekend" holiday shopping.
01[12:25] {Threei}  recovering from shopping
[12:25] {dino} spy gap 179.01
01[12:25] {Threei}  just how backwards our heads are?
[12:25] {nemo} when the going gets tough, the tough go shopping
[12:25] {cc_9} just down down down, everything down
[12:25] {nemo} like a good girll
[12:26] {nemo} s3 iwm
[12:26] {cc_9} IWM i see nothing till 109
[12:26] {dino} lol shoppertrak, as if the severe weather didn't keep people from shopping
[12:26] {dino} we've had 3 days of ice, nobody downtown
[12:26] {cc_9} SPY nothing till 178.80
[12:27] {dino} gap 179.01 area
[12:28] {cc_9} i tell ya, nothing, SPY wants under 179
[12:29] {dino} what are you trying to say?, lol
[12:30] {cc_9} im trying to say SPY going to 0.00 today mate
[12:30] {cc_9} no such thing as bottom today
[12:31] {cc_9} no dip buyers, nada
[12:31] {cc_9} once we give up, then market will reverse lol
01[12:32] {Threei}  that's how it works
[12:32] {nemo} that should be it for vix
[12:32] {cc_9} vad yes, its usually at maximum pain and near capitulation that finally the trade works
[12:33] {cc_9} (on days like today)
01[12:33] {Threei}  eqzaktly
[12:33] {cc_9} although SPY is trying a little here, chart still unreadable
01[12:34] {Threei}  meanwhile, I finally finished Breaking Bad
[12:34] {cc_9} will only make sense as far as giving it a name once we get back to 179.70. anything under is uncharted for intraday
[12:34] {cc_9} oh goodie, now you can start on Boardwalk Empire
01[12:35] {Threei}  'twas good, although I wouldn't necessary agree with title of the best ever
[12:35] {cc_9} GILD = 0 love on this SPY bounce
[12:36] {nemo} weak side dropping fast on algo, but no correspoinding buying
[12:37] {cc_9} GILD needs 70.80 to put bottom
[12:38] {cc_9} i did not think id be typing a zero after the first 7 as far as GILD goes today
[12:38] {cc_9} VXX losing bids, lets see if helps
[12:40] {cc_9} VXX that was strange
[12:41] {cc_9} were those .30s actual prints or just skinny finger
[12:42] {nemo} gotta' figure iwm won't give up the 50 day today
[12:42] {nemo} at least on a close basis
[12:45] {cc_9} VXX still losing bids
[12:45] {cc_9} SPY needs at LEAST 179.60 to buck this trend
[12:46] {cc_9} GILD some bids at last
[12:47] {cc_9} XIV tagging 32 at last
[12:48] {cc_9} GILD this is it, time to freaking break 71 and stay above it
[12:49] {cc_9} i should have not even said anything, it was going just fine on its own
[12:50] {cc_9} XIV, if I can get 32.30 ill be happy
[12:50] {cc_9} SPY some trouble 179.40, needs .50s to clear upside
[12:52] {cc_9} QQQ major wall 85.60
[12:54] {dino} lunch time might be hard time to get markets moving

[12:58] {cc_9} this SPY pullback is good so long that it holds 179.20 to make a higher low
[12:59] {cc_9} QQQ fresh lows
[12:59] {nemo} OK going to see if I can find something to kill
[12:59] {cc_9} you mean someone ?
[13:00] {nemo} Only got a deer license...if I could get a human license...or...a more convenient way to get rid of the body....
[13:00] {cc_9} GILD back to .80, another 71 test on the way

[13:02] {cc_9} SPY about to start bouncing now
01[13:02] {Threei}  decent auction
01[13:02] {Threei}  supports SPY
01[13:02] {Threei}  - Indirect bidders take 48.9% of competitive bids, with 74.9% allotted at high - 10.57% go to direct bidders; 40.5% go to dealers - Median 2.783%, Low 2.735%
[13:03] {nemo} 10 year?  Bennie is buying all those
01[13:03] {Threei}  look at bidders distribution
01[13:04] {Threei}  this is not all Bennie anymore
[13:04] {cc_9} XIV, at last!
[13:04] {cc_9} i can smell the freedom
[13:04] {cc_9} GILD what the hell no bounce! :(
[13:10] {cc_9} no crack at 71 :(
01[13:13] {Threei}  TNA... watching for pullbck entry

[13:28] {cc_9} SPY no follow through...lame
01[13:28] {Threei}  no
01[13:28] {Threei}  weak bounce instead of picking up and proceeding to new highs
[13:29] {cc_9} SPY is once again .20 away from cracking session lows
[13:29] {cc_9} QQQ is already there
[13:31] {cc_9} GILD accumulation before the pop
[13:31] {cc_9} through $71 brings back buyers
[13:31] {cc_9} $0.10 to go
[13:31] {cc_9} giddy

[13:32] {cc_9} come on, break it

[14:55] {cc_9} GILD i want either 72 or 70.50
[14:55] {cc_9} this sideways shit is putting me to sleep
[14:56] {cc_9} SPY just needs the usual buy algos EOD then recrash last 10 minutes
01[14:57] {Threei} Long Setup:  GILD  .20 break

01[15:00] {Threei}  lol
[15:01] {cc_9} SPY double bottom
[15:02] {cc_9} possible a fake before they pull the rug

[15:03] {cc_9} beybey
[15:04] {cc_9} SPY wants to crash to 179
01[15:04] {Threei}  at least
[15:04] {cc_9} this double bottom fake is a joke, even newbies can see it
01[15:04] {Threei}  this can easily turn into full blown panic
01[15:05] {Threei}  which is my favorite kind of panic
01[15:05] {Threei}  as opposite to partially blown one
[15:05] {cc_9} kinda like aids right ?
01[15:05] {Threei}  I guess
[15:06] {cc_9} SPY, here we go
[15:07] {cc_9} either it holds LOD and does a newbie bounce
[15:07] {cc_9} or dog crash and get panic mode engaged
[15:08] {cc_9} I hope I am wrong (yes Will, I do), but i think the SPY will flush below the LOD so fast, most wont even get a chance
[15:08] {cc_9} yup, here we go
01[15:08] {Threei}  well, we are positioned just for that
01[15:09] {Threei}  so the sooner the better
01[15:09] {Threei}  and the deeper the betterest
[15:12] {cc_9} GILD dog tank

[15:21] {mrcanada} that's the way it should be
[15:21] {mrcanada} everywhere!
01[15:21] {Threei}  no one complains - and this is in Victoria where complaining is a favorite sport

[15:30] {cc_9} SPY just nothing...straight crash

01[15:31] {Threei}  even jonh kill
[15:32] {mrcanada} Warren Kinsella the great Liberal statesman has said that this one issue (no postal service to the door) will get Justin Trudeau as our next PM
[15:33] {cc_9} they might trap the market by crashing it
[15:33] {mrcanada} when he promises to restore it in the next election
[15:33] {Will49} tell me it isn't so
[15:33] {cc_9} with the clock running out
[15:33] {cc_9} SPY more crash
[15:33] {cc_9} god damn it
01[15:34] {Threei}  look at the positive side, mrc... if that happens, we are going to have practically bottomless well of jokes
01[15:34] {Threei}  Justin is guaranteed to deliver in that department
[15:34] {cc_9} very rare that market does not get ONE bounce on day like today
[15:34] {mrcanada} listen we have bottomless well of jokes now...
01[15:34] {Threei}  rob ford?
01[15:35] {Threei}  true...
01[15:35] {Threei}  but competition is good :)
[15:35] {mrcanada} cc...will this continue or bounce back tomorrow and start a santa rally?
[15:35] {Will49} Bieber

01[15:36] {Threei}  I guess I'm old school because I love my mail carrier! We chat, we give him cookies and cupcakes, he waves to us when he sees us around town! I'll be sad to lose that connection.
