[04:55] {hawkfan4} whew, for a bit there i thought i was gonna have to be in charge :) morning Vad
[04:58] {Threei} morning hawk :)
[04:58] {Threei} hey, it's a good idea
[04:59] {Threei} you sure you don't want to?
[05:03] {hawkfan4} lol, it might be pure chaos. I haven't quite got the stress free trading part down to a science yet
[05:03] {Threei} who said chaos is bad
[05:04] {hawkfan4} :) so true
[05:05] {Threei} from my chess days:
[05:05] {Threei} there was a school of Botvinnik, 3 or 4 times world champion,
[05:06] {Threei} shcool of logic, iron sequences
[05:06] {Threei} strict analysis
[05:06] {Threei} and generation after generation of chess players were taught this
[05:06] {Threei} then at some point new star appeared, Michael Tal,
[05:07] {Threei} a guy who built his entire game style on chaos
[05:07] {Threei} he had natural ability to intuitively find his way in chaotic situations where logic was totally thrown off
[05:07] {Threei} so his approach was:
[05:08] {Threei} from the early stages odf the game he would violate all the rules and all the logic,
[05:08] {Threei} taking the situation off beaten path
[05:08] {Threei} and creation positions with no pillars for traditional analysis
[05:08] {Threei} creating
[05:09] {Threei} what do you know, players of normal schooling would totally lose their ability to analyse situation
[05:09] {Threei} and his skill to find his way in muddy waters would kick in and take him to the victory
[05:09] {hawkfan4} pure genius if you can pull it off
[05:10] {Threei} he even proceeded to beat Botvinnik himself and beome world champion
[05:10] {hawkfan4} nice :)
[05:11] {Threei} genius yes... but general principle applies:
[05:11] {Threei} go off the beaten path, and you have advantage over those who can't play without traditional rules
[05:15] {Threei} btw, trading application exists as well, and on many levels
[05:16] {Threei} the most obvious is, do many of day traders make money trading MSFTs or INTCs of the world? :)
[05:16] {Threei} you have much better chance with obscure stocks
[05:16] {Threei} but as obscure stock gets too much recognition and following, it goes mainstream and becomes harder
[05:16] {hawkfan4} i like it. that's kind of why i haven't made any calls in the room, because i sit thru bigger stops and intraday drawdowns on some of my positions. Like yesterday i started buying WFR at 69.60 and bought it down to 68.90. Made good money, but someone else would've had to bail for a loss b4 it worked.
[05:17] {Threei} another analogy is a stage at which you start paying attention to the stock and particpating in it... early stage is the most priftable, and when the crowd discovers it, move is over
[05:17] {Threei} if bigger stops match your approach/personality, nothing's worng with that
[05:20] {hawkfan4} my biggest problem is that it occasionally leads to a big down day when i'm wrong with my market read. That's something i'm working on, basically not overtrading is my biggest problem.
[05:21] {Threei} I am not sure it's a problem to rectify
[05:21] {Threei} I mean, with wider stops loss is naturally bigger,
[05:21] {Threei} and those days when things don't work will of course will be losing days, and size of loss will be proportional to the width of stops
[05:22] {Threei} when things go in your favor, size of your win is also bigger than average scalpers
[05:22] {Threei} so it's just a matter of scale
[05:22] {Threei} you can't have srtops/losses equal to scalping ones and wins equal to swing trader ones, right?
[05:23] {hawkfan4} true, that makes sense
[05:23] {Threei} as MPP says... all the elements of your trading style should be aligned
[05:24] {Threei} try to keep narrow stops of scalping world while basing your entires on swing setups, and you will be shaken out regularly
[05:24] {Threei} simply because a stop is being placed within area of natural volatility
[05:25] {Threei} and is hit before setup has a chance to work
[05:25] {Threei} when everything's aligned, stop is placed at the level of significance
[05:25] {Threei} and this level will not be the same for a scalping setup vs swing trading setup
[05:26] {hawkfan4} i'm still putting it all together, tweaking everything. You and Dino have been very helpful to me, just watching the way you handle situations, the concept of stress free trading, it's worth working towards
[05:27] {Threei} :)
[05:28] {hawkfan4} And Roman, he's money in the bank. I don't even look at the chart half the time he mentions something. Just grab it.
[05:29] {Threei} yeah, his batting average is not average at all
[05:34] {esemde} good morning ladies and germs.....
[05:34] {Threei} ese :)
[05:34] {Threei} who are you calling germ?
[05:35] {esemde} clasic old shtick of a line but i like it......

[05:59] {Threei} dp :)
[06:05] {Threei} ETFC didn't convince anyone by yesterday's comments so far eh
[06:06] {magoo} vad, u got a read on ILMN short?
[06:06] {cosmo} EFII pre mkt high = 15.50 fwiw
[06:07] {Threei} chart wise, break of 70... but you know how reliable premarket charts are, especially on gaps of such magnitude
[06:09] {magoo} ok
[06:09] {Threei} EFII is worth watching, could be the case of "bad news is oout, everyone who wanted out has sold"
[06:17] {magoo} vad..lets watch OLMN as a potential short scalp somewhere today..keep eye on it
[06:20] {magoo} short loss of 70
[06:22] {Threei} pretty intense battle here... don't know, I'll stay away
[06:22] {Threei} maybe it forms something more manageable later
[06:22] {magoo} gotcha
[06:23] {Threei} remember how often we saw this kind consolidating, then just going and going and going?
[06:24] {dino} gm all
[06:24] {Threei} dino :)

[08:08] {Threei} dp, you know inflation is of concern for bank of canada right?
[08:08] {Threei} I mean, don't spend it all at once

[08:10] {bruce} lol
[08:10] {bruce} ther - grmn just gave . if we'd been able to get in
[08:10] {bruce} and had nerve to hold
[08:11] {Threei} nerve alone is not enough for such trade - need also to sever all brain connections with other organs
[08:12] {bruce} yes
[08:12] {bruce} especailly kidneys
[08:13] {Threei} GRMN seems to follow NQ weith little delay
[08:13] {bruce} nvda losing support
[08:13] {Threei} .72 new setup GRMN
[08:14] {Threei} stop under .40
[08:18] {Threei} not this time
[08:18] {BillyD} yesh, educated guessing game on these kind
[08:18] {magoo} its trading with the QQQQ

[08:25] {magoo} qqq powers up...grmn goes
[08:25] {Threei} true... it's just this up and down on NQ(QQQQ) has not much readability to it
[08:26] {magoo} agree with that
[08:26] {bruce} bye ese
[08:27] {Threei} chart wise this is a setup again
[08:27] {Threei} and this time it works
[08:27] {Threei} go figure
[08:28] {BillyD} then next you might try and it don't....lol
[08:28] {Threei} so let's play odd ones and skip even
[08:28] {BillyD} then next time you don't try it does
[08:28] {BillyD} exactly
[08:29] {Threei} even setup, buy off 78
[08:29] {Threei} skipping
[08:31] {Threei} guess what - it worked... I give up, alignment of planets is the only way today . That, and tea leaves
[08:32] {Threei} odd one, buy off 78 again
[08:33] {bruce} chicken entrails vad - thats the answer
[08:33] {Threei} good idea
[08:33] {bruce} messy though
[08:34] {bruce} need to get mags doing it
[08:34] {magoo} did it
[08:34] {bruce} thought so mags
[08:35] {magoo} out here .30
[08:35] {Threei} you took it mags?
[08:35] {Threei} cool beans
[08:35] {magoo} 11:32] {Threei} odd one, buy off 78 again
[08:35] {Threei} yeah, but even one worked just before that
[08:35] {magoo} 11:35] {magoo} out here .30
[08:36] {Threei} and chicken entrails said, "long trip and fortune at the end of it"
[08:36] {Threei} going to double check with 8-ball

[08:38] {bruce} nice dino
[08:38] {bruce} eslr short?
[08:38] {Threei} notice, no downdraft this time for GRMN as NQ went down

[08:39] {dino} thx bruce, took awhile
[08:39] {Threei} no read on ESLR bruce
[08:39] {bruce} k vad
[08:40] {Threei} from the chart, it doesn't really work on breakdowns

[08:42] {dino} too fast
[08:44] {bruce} syna possible long off .73?
[08:45] {Threei} stop would be .45... a bit too far for my taste

[09:18] {Threei}PREVIEW: ST. LOUIS FED PRES. POOLE SCHEDULED TO SPEAK ABOUT SUBPRIME MORTGAGES AND FINANCIAL EDUCATION AT 9:30AMET
- There will be a prepared text and Q&A with the audience and the media.
[09:18] {Threei}- reminder: in his last public comments, on Nov 30, Poole said:
[09:18] {Threei}- Economy should not suffer to punish speculators; Fed Members must be ready to act contrary to Market expectations
[09:18] {dino} prxi, beats, drops, cfo resigns, hmmm
[09:18] {lumdus} morning all.
[09:18] {lumdus} 3i dcc
[09:18] {Threei}- Stable economy provides no guarantee that businesses, households protected from failure, policy should not be seen as bailing out markets
[09:18] {Threei}- Says responsibility to alleviate market, says when further rate cuts would ease financial turmoil, always approporiate for Fed to discuss, notes it is 'just not true' that Fed eases policy systematically when stock market drops, 1987 the exception
[09:18] {Threei}- Notes policy actions not to prevent losses from subprime but to restore market processes and normal functioning financial markets are crucial to economic growth,
[09:18] {Threei}- Says stock prices may be cushioned as a byproduct of policy
[09:20] {esemde} ya......thats what i was gonna say......
[09:23] {Threei}they get cushioned last couple weeks alright
[09:24] {Threei}smothered is more like it but I guess it's just a matter of wording

[10:16] {Threei}come on man... some things you simply don't leave your house without
[10:16] {Threei}ax being one of those
[10:18] {Threei}lum, if I were you... .15 is where I would move stop to
[10:19] {dino} grmn going for double bottom?
[10:19] {Threei}maybe, but confirmation level is way too far for my taste
[10:21] {Threei}deep wisdom is coming:
[10:21] {Threei}FED'S POOLE: SAYS CANNOT PREDICT OR EXPLAIN EXCHANGE RATES- In the long run the USD will reflect strength of US economy
[10:21] {dino} now why do you have to be that way?, :)
[10:21] {Threei}lol
[10:22] {Threei}FED'S POOLE:- WATCHING BOTH INFLATION AND RECESSION RISKS, TOO EARLY TO TELL IF HOUSING WILL CAUSE RECESSION, 2008 TO BE YEAR OF RISING GROWTH
- Investment professionals have made many mistakes.
[10:22] {Threei}- Notes economic fundamentals remain strong, and turmoil wil take a while to play out.
[10:22] {Threei}RIMM
[10:22] {Roman} 21 damn flippers destroyed US ecomomy
[10:22] {Threei}96 breakdown is short, small shares
[10:22] {Threei}lol Roman
[10:23] {liranm} Rimm stop?
[10:23] {Threei}don't touch it liran... RIMM is a stock that requires RIMM-specific skill
[10:23] {Threei}if you never played it, stay away
[10:23] {liranm} OK
[10:24] {magoo} f#cking quotes bads
[10:24] {dino} nice call rimm
[10:24] {magoo} missed rimm entry
[10:24] {Threei}this is example of "if you have to ask"... :)
[10:24] {magoo} my level lagging bad
[10:24] {Threei}hmmm
[10:24] {Threei}looks fine here
[10:24] {Threei}RIMM at least is ticking like clock
[10:24] {magoo} gggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[10:24] {BillyD} seems ok here
[10:24] * magoo slaps BillyD around a bit with a large trout
[10:25] {bruce} same mags
[10:25] {BillyD} other than a few arca delays
[10:25] * magoo slaps bruce around a bit with a large trout
[10:25] {Threei}anyone went for RIMM{ feel free to be out
[10:25] {dptl} ahhh should of stayd rimm.... ty
[10:25] {magoo} made my day if RIMM had filled
[10:25] {Threei}you scalped?
[10:25] {dptl} yes
[10:26] {Threei}don't be upset... you know RIMM
[10:26] {dptl} ye s
[10:26] {dino} l grmn .95 riskyyyyy
[10:26] {Threei}takes just a blink to find yourself in (insert your favorite expletive)
[10:26] {BillyD} pretty much feel play on RIMM Vad?
[10:27] {bruce} what made 96 a short breakdown for you vad?
[10:27] {BillyD} I see the 96 setup
[10:27] {Threei}mix of feel, market cooperation, technical support to break and knowing how RIMM tends to trade
[10:27] {BillyD} I wasn't sure of reliable stop area
[10:27] {Threei}there was none
[10:27] {BillyD} whewww
[10:28] {Threei}closest resistance was 96.50
[10:28] {BillyD} yeah
[10:28] {Threei}too far to serve as a stop
[10:28] {BillyD} were you watching it for a bit for feel
[10:28] {Threei}actually, knowing the way RIMM trades shorting bounce into it was the best way
[10:28] {dino} stopped -.45
[10:28] {Threei}but it happened so fast, I couldn't even type the comment in time
[10:29] {esemde} out SUNH at 18.06
[10:29] {esemde} decided not to wait for stop to be hit
[10:29] {esemde} +,07
[10:29] {bruce} I can't see the setup - looks like itcould have gone either way at 96
[10:29] {dino} major rinse
[10:29] {BillyD} it could have bruce
[10:30] {BillyD} Vad just played his feel
[10:30] {bruce} would be nice to learn to trade those fast movers billy
[10:30] {Threei}DOE CRUDE: -6.7M V -1.2ME; GASOLINE: +5.2M V +1.6ME; DISTILLATES: +1.5M V +1ME; UTILIZATION: % V 89.5%E
[10:30] {BillyD} only way for me is to watch them first for feel....not able to just pull up and determine
[10:31] {dino} same bd
[10:32] {bruce} akns - any read vad - looks short
[10:32] {BillyD} unless it has a solid setup structure with stop...then maybe.....normally lean to side of watching first
[10:35] {magoo} vad, u still in seed?
[10:35] {BillyD} nice spot bruce on AKNS...not available here
[10:36] {bruce} thanx billy
[10:36] {Threei}mags, took stop but reentered half lot
[10:37] {Threei}couldn't resist 9.30
[10:37] {magoo} ok, nice, i stilkl got half
[10:37] {Threei}scary way to play'em
[10:39] {dino} meli l .94
[10:40] {bruce} amzn dino
[10:40] {BillyD} Vad, what was your reason for .15 stop to lum on BMRN as stop...the 10:13 bar?
[10:41] {BillyD} or .19 likely to touch it if in area
[10:41] {dino} should bounce, but i always have trouble w/it. kind of magoo's baby
[10:41] {dino} amzn that is
[10:41] {bruce} k dino
[10:41] {bruce} looks to me close to reverse
[10:43] {Threei}billy, that, and 10:19 bar that bottomed out at .19
[10:44] {BillyD} I see noe
[10:44] {BillyD} now
[10:44] {lumdus} are we in anything now ?
[10:44] {Threei}nope
[10:45] {lumdus} good. need to regroup myself here
[10:45] {lumdus} i like klac what you think ?
[10:45] {esemde} long PRFT half lot 16 89 risky
[10:46] {esemde} stop .60
[10:46] {bruce} stra dino
[10:46] {Threei}KLAC looks reasonable
[10:46] {Threei}needs market help
[10:47] {esemde} i like the looks of that Vad
[10:47] {Threei}strong, nice consolidation... the only reservation about it is,
[10:48] {Threei}it's unlikely to go without NQ help, and NQ being what it is lately is not very good helper
[10:48] {esemde} indeed
[10:48] {lumdus} tx vad
[10:48] {Threei}SEED taking .50 again is nice sign mags
[10:49] {dino} dk stra
[10:49] {magoo} big offer .60and .70
[10:49] {Threei}hard to tell if it gains traction again for a serious break, but chance is there
[10:49] {magoo} eat .60 would help
[10:50] {Threei}going up over 10 would help even better {G}
[10:50] {magoo} ah..i agree
[10:51] {Threei}Roman's IDIX is honestly trying
[10:51] {BillyD} BMRN flirting with more here
[10:52] {esemde} stopped .60 PRFT *&%&^*&^^&&^$#$!

[11:22] {dino} i'll tell you what, the multi-family units in this area are the price of a car/unit, not too bad imo. thats when i started 10+years ago
[11:22] {dino} theres money to be made, rents easily carry mtg
[11:23] {Threei}I say cars are horribly overpriced
[11:23] {Roman} 21 teach me dino how to make money in Real Esate
[11:23] {Roman} 21 i am signing up for seminar
[11:23] {dino} lol, you already know how i suspect
[11:24] {Roman} 21 i am real-estate flipper wannabe
[11:24] {Threei}carlton sheest will help you roman
[11:24] {BillyD} free set of sheets w/ every attendee
[11:24] {Threei}(at least that's what two last batches of spam e-mails told me)
[11:25] {Roman} 21 want to work 2 hours day and making a killing - REAL ESTATE is the answer
[11:25] {Roman} 21 chilling on the beach watching Brazilian girls all day - that's what i want to do
[11:25] {Threei}wow... you are a workaholic... I don't want to work at all
[11:26] {Roman} 21 get a Yatch
[11:26] {lumdus} why we back in seed ?
[11:26] {dino} rfr, keep this in mind, when unit cost is about the price of a 25-30k car, something, imo, is wrong.
[11:26] {Roman} 21 here in north miami you still can't get anyting decent under 300k
[11:26] {BillyD} dino, is the the current value now
[11:26] {Roman} 21 2 bed 2 back with a decent view
[11:26] {Threei}because it came back close to support, making stop tight enough, and showed signs or strength
[11:27] {Threei}or = of
[11:27] {dino} yes bd
[11:27] {lumdus} ok, tx
[11:27] {BillyD} pretty inexpensive considering rent potential
[11:28] {dino} indeed
[11:28] {BillyD} take those all day
[11:30] {dino} wow fslr down about 50 pts in 5 days
[11:35] {Threei}and still no signs of bounce in sight

[11:37] {lumdus} i shorted crox at 27.71 got only 100 filled. crap
[11:37] {dino} gj
[11:37] {lumdus} it was trading .73 when i hit the button. don't like that
[11:38] {Threei}looks like bounce time for FSLR
[11:39] {lumdus} tx 3i, i don't cach falling knives anymore. someone else needs to do that job
[11:39] {Threei}panic selling
[11:42] {bruce} thats for dino lum

[11:47] {Threei}tough one dp
[11:48] {dptl} looks like dbl btm
[11:48] {Threei}unless NQ breaks down again
[11:48] {dptl} ye true
[11:51] {Threei}sky is falling yet?
[11:52] {Threei}FSLR becomes hard to resist
[11:55] {Threei}see BRCM dp?
[11:55] {dptl} yes
[11:56] {Threei}this is typical "skill to stay on a sideline" moment
[11:56] {dino} yes
[12:02] {bruce} celg - any read vad?
[12:02] {Threei}UN: SEES US GROTH 2% IN 2008, 2.5% IN EU, 1.7% IN JAPAN, AND 3.4% WORLDWIDE
[12:02] {Threei}b reakout play
[12:02] {Threei}hard to define stop on it though
[12:03] {Threei}I'd stay away bruce
[12:03] {Threei}just not clear enough
[12:03] {bruce} k - thanx
[12:03] {Threei}and not really market for breakouts
[12:04] {dino} rimm l .50, sm
[12:04] {bruce} k
[12:08] {Threei}good one dino
[12:09] {dino} out rimm .99, +.49
[12:09] {dino} ty, lucky, it's lagging all day
[12:10] {dino} same w/gs
[12:11] {Threei}watching ISIS for bounce scalp
[12:12] {dino} man, fslr we chickened out on
[12:12] {Threei}I grabbed a scalp... but didn't have heart for real move
[12:13] {dino} i didn't have the b#lls, lol
[12:15] {Threei}can't blame you really... this one is tenfold scary vs RIMM
[12:15] {Threei}as if RIMM wasn't scary enough
[12:15] {dino} will only do 200 on fslr
[12:15] {BillyD} I think you really like the challenge Vad
[12:15] {dino} rimm just 300
[12:15] {Threei}I am adrenalin-deprived
[12:16] {BillyD} I think you are just good at what you do
[12:16] {dino} knocking meli
[12:16] {Threei}it was just impossible to resist around 209
[12:17] {Threei}but I need to learn to faint in such cases... and come out of it when it's up 5-6 points :)
[12:18] {Threei}otherwise scalpers instincts take over
[12:19] {Threei}telling myself, keep it, you got a great one and yout stop is ridiculously small for such a stock
[12:19] {Threei}self says, you are crazy, you got point and half, take it and go home
[12:19] {BillyD} oh, the dialogue
[12:20] {Threei}yes... then cat comes in, looks at me questioningly... why is this piece of furniture talks to himself
[12:20] {BillyD} lol
[12:20] {Threei}then wife comes in, says "you are talking to yourscreens again? medication doesn't work or you forgot to take it?"
[12:21] {Threei}pressure from all sides, you see...
[12:21] {BillyD} yes, too many voices
[12:21] {Threei}and I don't even count little green men...
[12:22] {Threei}OK, ISIS
[12:22] {Threei}.51 long
[12:22] {Threei}if stays above .40
[12:22] {Threei}just a scalp most likely
[12:23] {dino} feels like novembers' market
[12:24] {dptl} in .51 isis
[12:24] {Threei}qwhy dp?
[12:24] {Threei}just pulling your leg... sorry :)
[12:25] {dptl} :)
[12:27] {dino} sm l rimm .20
[12:28] {dptl} nvda?
[12:29] {Threei}chart wise, long at .20 break... but the question is, do you trust market to move up more?
[12:29] {dptl} ok
[12:30] {Threei}let's trail ISIS to under .45
[12:30] {Threei}I'd expect more resolve from it on .50 break
[12:30] {Threei}it's still valid but I'd prefer to keep tighter lid on stops
[12:32] {Threei}was so tempted by SED at 8.80 and hesitated... whimp
[12:32] {Threei}SEED
[12:32] {dptl} stoped isis
[12:32] {BillyD} yes
[12:40] {esemde} ladies and gentlemen...have a great rest of the day
[12:40] {Threei}take care ese :)
[12:40] {esemde} see ya vad
[12:40] {patience} bye ese
[12:41] {Threei}MBRN held rather well
[12:41] {Threei}BMRN
[12:42] {Threei}no play unless NQ continue recovery
[12:43] {dino} rimm stopped -.35
[12:48] {bruce} rmbs long?
[12:48] {Threei}I don't see anything compelling on it bruce... may work, may not with the same chance
[12:49] {bruce} k
[12:49] {Threei}for all these stocks that mostly follow NASDAQ, I would like to see real NQ bounce first
[12:49] {dino} aaee
[12:49] {dino} aaww
[12:50] {Threei}what we have now is just a fibble technical recovery, not convincing by any means
[12:50] {Threei}NQ daily seems almost riped for sizeable bounce
[12:51] {Threei}but this "almost" may take many more stops if you atempt to forecast the moment of actual bottom
[12:51] {Threei}not the way I prefer to play it
[12:53] {Threei}SEED feels to me like momo in the making, tripped of general market selling
[12:53] {Threei}big bid at .10 appeared a few min ago and absorbed all the selling
[12:54] {BillyD} deep pullbacks last few days but recovers
[12:59] {dino} big bounce coming imo
[13:00] {Threei}BMRN
[13:00] {Threei}half lot long with .29 stop
[13:00] {BillyD} yes but where entry
[13:00] {Threei}on what?
[13:00] {dino} rimm l .00, sm wide
[13:00] {BillyD} BMRN
[13:01] {Threei}no exact trigger, take it as buying comes in as long as size of stop is acceptable
[13:02] {BillyD} all I needed

[08:16] {Threei} ok in
[08:16] {Threei} can't resist, stop under 19
[08:16] {Threei} may take reentry
[08:16] {Threei} hard to tell here
[08:16] {lumdus} where ISIS ?
[08:16] {Threei} .08
[08:17] {dptl} .03
[08:17] {Threei} come on NQ, raise your head
[08:17] {lumdus} jumpy one isis
[08:19] {magoo} held fairly well vad
[08:19] {Threei} but still doesn't reverse for real
[08:19] {lumdus} magoo make sure fingure on sell button :)
[08:19] {Threei} this long hesitation can resolve any way
[08:19] {magoo} .40 area turned it back now 3 times
[08:21] {Threei} NQ looks better
[08:22] {Threei} let's do it ISIS
[08:22] {lumdus} isis had too many head fakes' for me
[08:23] {magoo} out
[08:24] {lumdus} a break of 19.00 and wamm !
[08:24] {magoo} short loss 19
[08:24] {lumdus} now that's a grade ..
[08:24] {lumdus} grade=trade
[08:24] {dptl} out
[08:27] {dptl} damn
[08:31] {BillyD} there are just some stubborn/nasty personaalities out there lately
[08:31] {BillyD} in some stock's movement
[08:32] {dptl} you still in Vad?
[08:33] {Threei} yes
[08:33] {dptl} thinking to get back in
[08:34] {Threei} SBUX sizeable pullback
[08:35] {Threei} NQ is still dumping dp...
[08:35] {Threei} tough decision
[08:37] {dptl} in .03
[08:39] {dino} stopped rok .30, -.06
[08:42] {Threei} out
[08:43] {BillyD} too much
[08:43] {Threei} just can't get a feel what it wants to do next
[08:43] {BillyD} drama on it here...lol
[08:43] {dino} synt
[08:46] {magoo} man..nasty
[08:48] {dino} synt l .51 risky, wide
[08:48] {Threei} lol ISIS
[08:50] {Threei} you kept it dp?
[08:50] {dptl} no got out flat
[08:53] {Threei} freakin thing has strong flavor of squeeze coming... but to find an entry on it is a whole other story
[08:54] {dino} be done w/it
[08:54] {Roman} long PAAS small & slow
[08:56] {dino} synt stopped -.50
[08:58] {dino} rinsed
[08:58] {Roman} GOLD
[08:58] {Roman} CRDC getting ready for something
[09:00] {magoo} if IF ISIS gets thgru .50, long to 20
[09:01] {Threei} with two shakes to 18.80 along the way {G}
[09:01] {Threei} just kidding... my feeling of strong move coming too
[09:01] {Threei} but it trades brutally
[09:03] {dino} synt l round two .35
[09:04] {Threei} look at this
[09:07] {magoo} kind of oblivious to naz
[09:08] {Threei} yes, there was some correlation earlier, not anymore
[09:12] {dptl} nvda?
[09:16] {Threei} way stronger than one could expect
[09:16] {Threei} but it has NQ correlation
[09:17] {Threei} and NQ is whacky
[09:25] {Threei} bruce
[09:25] {Threei} could you just give your recipe for ISIS?
[09:25] {Threei} "close your eyes and buy"
[09:25] {dino} thats cheating
[09:25] {magoo} looking good
[09:26] {dino} thank you
[09:26] {dino} it's the low carb
[09:26] {magoo} prob explode to 21 vad
[09:26] {Threei} easy
[09:26] {Threei} with couple pullback to 18.50 along the way
[09:26] {BillyD} lol
[09:27] {bruce} lol
[09:27] {magoo} thats why our eyes are closed
[09:28] {bruce} isis is indeterminate to me vad
[09:28] {Threei} pullbacks are supported, highs get taken, shakes are brutal and invariably turn out just shakes...
[09:28] {bruce} my hunch is that it is stil a short though as day goes on
[09:28] {magoo} i say near 21 today
[09:30] {Threei} OK, I found the way to play it
[09:31] {magoo} coiling big time
[09:31] {Threei} this teleporting to .27, in
[09:31] {Threei} teleporting back upto above .40, out
[09:31] {magoo} gonna go
[09:31] {magoo} in
[09:32] {magoo} .47
[09:32] {magoo} dammit..naz not helping
[09:33] {dino} synt stopped -.10
[09:34] {dino} done w.it
[09:34] {Threei} nice support .50
[09:36] {Threei} if this .58 offer is taken...
[09:36] {magoo} are there any other stocks available to trade today he he?
[09:36] {Threei} and taken it will be
[09:36] {Threei} there
[09:37] {BillyD} what's stop vad
[09:38] {Threei} by bruce
[09:38] {dptl} half out '62
[09:38] {magoo} if IF it gets 20.15 going ballistic
[09:39] {magoo} it will never turn back again
[09:39] {magoo} ever
[09:40] {magoo} out .73
[09:41] {magoo} look to reload it
[09:43] {magoo} good out magoo..thanx vad :)
[09:44] {dino} taking a break
[09:44] * magoo slaps LaserDave1 around a bit with a large trout
[09:46] {Threei} good pullback for entry
[09:47] {Threei} CSIQ
[09:49] {bruce} crox dino
[09:51] {magoo} SOLF too vad
[09:52] {dptl} nvda?
[09:52] {dino} sorry bruce taking a break, did fine, but missed last two, so clear my head w/walk
[09:52] {Threei} don't know NVDA
[09:52] {dino} crox imo, strike to 30, then maybe down
[09:53] {Threei} INCY lost its mind
[09:54] {bruce} k dino
[09:55] {Threei} here comes one of those brutal pullbacks ISIS
[09:56] {magoo} any read on FSLR?
[09:58] {Threei} yuck
[09:58] {magoo} anyone any read anytime?
[10:01] {bruce} taking break
[10:08] {lumdus} isis little bounc
[10:19] {lumdus} nvda might break
[10:29] {dptl} out nvda +.23
[10:31] {lumdus} ok, my setups are not working this pm that well. time to watch myself. Note to self
[10:34] {lumdus} dptl, not ready to give up on nvda but that was huge pullback and quick. This AM things where pretty smooth. Now, not looking great
[10:35] {Threei} 19.06 probably worth a try ISIS
[10:36] {Threei} volume pertty much dried up on this retreat, and there was no selling frenzy really
[10:36] {Threei} whether buying frenzy returns is a big if
[10:36] {dptl} stop?
[10:36] {Threei} but risk is pretty small here
[10:36] {Threei} under 19
[10:37] {dptl} in.07
[10:38] {Threei} it goes through another period of indecision, hard to tell which way it resolves,
[10:38] {Threei} so just gotta catch a moment with tight stop
[10:38] {Threei} and let it show what it wants
[10:38] {Threei} if resumes upward push, win will be quite sizeable, if not stop will be tight
[10:45] {Threei} pre-frenzy
[10:45] {magoo} be back in hour, got apptmt
[10:45] {Threei} hurry
[10:45] {Threei} we won't wait for you to sell ISIS at 21
[10:49] {Threei} half out dp
[10:49] {Threei} you have 30 cents
[10:49] {Threei} don't let it all slip away
[10:49] {dptl} out....1st +.10..second +.19..ty
[10:50] {Threei} :)
[10:50] {Threei} SEED
[10:51] {Threei} called 9 entry earlier but happened too suddenly, afraid we missed it
[10:52] {Threei} so dp... are morning stops fully rectified?
[10:52] {bruce} + .20 c isis \thanx vad
[10:52] {bruce} needed that
[10:52] {Threei} welcome sir
[10:53] {bruce} still down on day though
[10:53] {dptl} yep in green now
[10:53] {Threei} cool beans... patience, cold blood and discipline work miracles
[10:53] {bruce} that was a nice trade - with reward larger than risk
[10:54] {dptl} FOR SURE
[10:54] {Threei} here is little psychological trick to be in this mindset:
[10:54] {Threei} do not view trading in "event" terms
[10:54] {Threei} look at it as a process
[10:55] {Threei} single trade has no singificance,
[10:55] {Threei} no matter what outcome is (as long as you control risk of course)
[10:55] {dino} sm l gs .37
[10:55] {Threei} when you view it as a continuing process, frustration of any given stop disappears
[10:56] {Threei} and trading frustration-free in turns frees your mind for objective evaluation of the next opportinutity
[10:56] {Threei} as opposite to "ouch, I am in red, gotta make it back, where is my chance"
[10:57] {Threei} mindset that pushes you into grabbing anything that moves
[10:57] {Threei} digging deeper hole
[10:57] {Threei} frikking SEED got away
[10:57] {lumdus} seed just going
[10:58] {bruce} as in - frikken seed got away vad?
[10:58] {bruce} got you
[10:59] {Threei} did I even say something?
[10:59] {Threei} :)
[10:59] {dino} good trading is not about being right, its' about trading right
[10:59] {Threei} great, dino goes all Zen on us
[10:59] {dino} feelig underappreciated
[10:59] {dino} :)
[10:59] {Threei} welcome to the club

[11:16] {BillyD} entry
[11:16] {BillyD} ?
[11:17] {BillyD} that move cause to rethink
[11:17] {Threei} sharp selling into 25.50, possibly lower
[11:17] {Threei} no, not really
[11:17] {Threei} it's norlam for this stock
[11:17] {Threei} normal
[11:17] {BillyD} thought was around 26 if seemed to hold
[11:18] {lumdus} sap
[11:18] {Threei} it tends to come to logical support and break it before recovering
[11:18] {BillyD} but it is still logical for it
[11:19] {Threei} it's usually a buy off second support
[11:20] {dino} cov crox .40, +.30
[11:23] {BillyD} so far .79 holds
[11:25] {Threei} I don't like it here
[11:25] {Threei} kind of middle of nowhere
[11:26] {Threei} far from support, far from resistance, doesn'
[11:26] {Threei} t go up with NQ
[11:26] {Threei} doesn't drop because of NQ syrength either
[11:26] {BillyD} it's own logic
[11:26] {BillyD} personality
[11:27] {Threei} better now
[11:27] {lumdus} csiq ?
[11:27] {Threei} yeah
[11:27] {lumdus} let me know when you are in
[11:27] {Threei} nope
[11:27] {Threei} I intent to make it a secret
[11:28] {dptl} lol
[11:28] {lumdus} hey, how can i do that slap with a trout stuff ?
[11:28] {Threei} no way
[11:28] {Threei} we confiscated all the trouts

[11:29] {bruce} held my trouter
[11:29] {Threei} closer to .50 get ready,
[11:29] {Threei} watch for strenghtening,
[11:29] {Threei} don't buy on pricve alone, watch for it to stabilize and show signs of reversal,
[11:29] {Threei} don't bite if it slides slowly,
[11:29] {Threei} rather wait for a quick dive
[11:30] {Threei} if it reverses before showing anything readable, shrug and let it be
[11:30] {Threei} ISIS baby
[11:30] {BillyD} ISIS trying
[11:30] {Threei} my tunr dp:
[11:30] {Threei} half out
[11:31] {dptl} :)
[11:31] {Threei} from 19.08
[11:31] {dptl} nice
[11:31] {Threei} just don't take it as indication that you did something wrong
[11:32] {Threei} that was a very good play on your part
[11:32] {Threei} and I have to say:
[11:32] {Threei} with the way ISIS treated us earlier, it took guts and conviction to go for it again when you did
[11:33] {dptl} ty
[11:33] {Threei} bruce... now please trout him before his head goes too big
[11:34] {dino} gj dp
[11:34] {dptl} ty
[11:34] {bruce} congrat dp
[11:35] {Threei} sheesh
[11:35] * bruce slaps Threei around a bit with a large trout
[11:35] {Threei} trout bearer goes all soft on us
[11:35] {dptl} lol
[11:35] {Threei} and actually confuses his targets
[11:35] {BillyD} never could tell sellers everywhere this morning w/ volatile moves.....always changes
[11:36] {BillyD} ebbs and flow
[11:36] {Threei} live in now
[11:36] {Threei} or as dino will tell us when he goes ultimate Zen, be the water
[11:37] {BillyD} lol
[11:37] {Threei} but on serious note...
[11:37] {Threei} get this book and read first 94 pages (in my edition at least):
[11:37] {Threei} Power of Now
[11:37] {Threei} Ekhart Tolle or something close
[11:37] {BillyD} thtais it
[11:37] {Threei} wonderful trading book
[11:38] {dino} just bought it vad
[11:38] {BillyD} that is it
[11:38] {Threei} even though auhor [robably never heard of trading as profession
[11:38] {Threei} you will like it dino, I promise
[11:38] {BillyD} it is applicable to everything
[11:38] {dino} good
[11:38] {Threei} just don't go beyond page 95, IMO :)
[11:39] {dino} read the first half of the way of the turtles, very similar to your way of teaching, just diffenernt markets
[11:39] {Threei} full power switch from amazing stuff to total bs... they needed a filler for more pages I guess
[11:40] {patience} which markets were discussed dino?
[11:40] {Threei} I never read it dino... for exactly this reason
[11:40] {Threei} someone told me it was very similar
[11:40] {Threei} so I decided not to waste my time :)
[11:41] {dino} it re-inforced alot you what you teach.....individual trades don't matter, get your edge, control risk, be consuistant, keep it simple. etc
[11:41] {Threei} :)
[11:41] {dino} yeah, i see your point, it helped me, as did you
[11:43] {dino} crox, darn, thought it would hit .85 again
[11:44] {Threei} CSIQ came to support area
[11:44] {Threei} NQ pushed it there, watch both
[11:45] {Threei} and don't go crazy on size, thin trader
[11:45] {dino} gfig
[11:46] {Threei} come on CSIQ, dive under .50
[11:47] {Threei} closest support is .25 now
[11:47] {Threei} be ready NQ is about to bounce
[11:48] {dino} pretty good dow pullback
[11:49] {Threei} in
[11:49] {Threei} got .53
[11:49] {Threei} stop .39
[11:50] {Threei} out .89
[11:50] {BillyD} nice
[11:51] {BillyD} I saw the trigger on it but not on NDX so passed
[11:51] {Threei} precise scenario I decasribed earlier
[11:51] {Threei} ummm
[11:51] {Threei} decasribed?
[11:51] {Threei} sigh
[11:52] {Threei} slide into suport, quick selling under it, strengthening
[11:52] {BillyD} 2 pennies under it?
[11:52] {Threei} 3 I think... not much drop but pace was good
[11:53] {Threei} had this intimidating quality about it
[11:53] {Threei} creating impression drop is coming and going to be cratering
[11:53] {BillyD} I saw the turn but thought NQ was confirmationand didn't se it
[11:53] {Threei} instead, bids come in and ofers get taken
[11:53] {lumdus} i blinked and saw nothing
[11:53] {Threei} NQ just stalled at the time, yeah
[11:54] {BillyD} my ...
[11:54] {BillyD} :)
[11:54] {Threei} that's why I tried to give an idea in dvance lum, there is usually no way to post in time
[11:54] {Threei} not on this kind
[11:54] {lumdus} 3i, you did what you need too. i drank coffe for 1/2 second cost me $$
[11:55] {Threei} but at least coffee was good?
[11:55] {Threei} not good ISIS

[12:01] {dino} another roughly 200 pt range day
[12:01] {lumdus} I tried to catch a falling knife. I guess I need to learn my lesson a little better
[12:02] {BillyD} it's just a certain time frame looks so solid one way and in a short completely opposite
[12:02] {dino} shake it off lumdus
[12:03] {BillyD} reason to live in the Now and not assume the now means the same as later
[12:03] {dino} back in 10
