[08:38] {Threei} you know what caused Fri explosion right?
[08:40] {magoo} do not remember
[08:41] {Threei} one person, coming on TV and speculating about bond insurers bailout
[08:41] {Threei} and that was what sent markets flying
[08:41] {Threei} believe it or not
[08:41] {Threei} sooo... today someone comes on TV and says no way - imagine what happens hnext
[08:41] {Threei} or rumor comes true
[08:42] {Threei} or some third turn of events comes along
[08:42] {Threei} thus... I am putting my crystal ball back in the sandal box, and just going with immediate developments
[08:44] {cosmo} MRVL (Barrons likes it) pre mkt high = 11.60 so far
[08:45] {magoo} gotcha..this mkt has no committment to either direction
[08:45] {magoo} unless its one committment is to reverse
[08:45] {Threei} and it's bound to change any minute
[08:45] {magoo} seems its been reversing everyday
[08:46] {Threei} I can't imagine what investors are going through when even we daytraders get overwhelmed sometimes by how quickly things change these days
[08:48] {cosmo} its the climate i think
[08:49] {Threei} and its change?

[08:49] {Threei} - The second order received was from the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department in Sacramento, CA, for 180 TASER X26 ECDs and related accessories.
[08:49] {Threei} FORMER FED CHAIRMAN GREENSPAN: RECESSION WILL NOT BE SIGNIFICANTLY LONGER THAN THE LAST
- Would not be surprised if this recession is deeper
[08:49] {Threei} - Finance problems marginally affected the economy
[08:49] {Threei} - House prices to continue to fall
[08:50] {Threei} US WEIGHS SANCTIONS ON IRAN'S CENTRAL BANK - WSJ- The Treasury Department is gathering evidence it says shows that the central bank of Iran is helping other Iranian institutions elude US economic sanctions, in what could be a prelude to penalties against the central bank.

[10:07] {dino} sm spwr l .80
[10:07] {Threei} stay patient guys, market is slow to wake up
[10:08] {Threei} (can't blame it, really)
[10:08] {Threei} but something is brewing
[10:08] {lumdus} you wish you could sleep late .. huh
[10:08] {Threei} always
[10:09] {Threei} I don't know what, but this feels like calm before the storm
[10:10] {dino} out spwr 69.86 +1.06
[10:10] {Threei} INSU
[10:11] {Threei} 15 break long half lot
[10:11] {Threei} stop under 14.80
[10:11] {esemde} have been getting that market feeling since about last wed or thurs Vad...
[10:11] {esemde} question is....is it storm up or storm down
[10:11] {magoo} no way to catch 15
[10:11] {Threei} that's a good question
[10:12] {dino} same feeling 3i, somethings' about to give big time
[10:12] {Threei} so let's make bets?
[10:12] {Threei} up or down?
[10:12] {patience} big time down
[10:12] {lumdus} vad, when you get a chance. Can you look at my teva trade. Did i screw up ?
[10:12] {esemde} i feel for some reason it's going to head up.....it just has not been selling down hard like it did in mid january
[10:13] {dino} i'm going contrary, everybody wants down, so i'll take up
[10:13] {esemde} i'm with you dino
[10:14] {Threei} lum, I see your entry
[10:14] {dino} great monds think alike, :)
[10:14] {Threei} what happened next?
[10:14] {dino} minds
[10:14] {magoo} well, i thought up
[10:14] {magoo} so everybody is thinking up
[10:14] {lumdus} i put a stop on 49.17 and triggered vad
[10:14] {Threei} way too tight, IMO
[10:15] {Threei} my trailing would be:
[10:15] {lumdus} ......
[10:15] {lumdus} 49.07 ?
[10:15] {Threei} .09 after it broke .20,
[10:15] {Threei} .15 after it broke .30
[10:15] {lumdus} ok. in short i screwed up. thank you.
[10:15] {lumdus} at now would be .26
[10:16] {Threei} right
[10:16] {Threei} remember our Fri discussion on trailing stops?
[10:16] {Threei} this is good illustration, trail them as chart dictates
[10:16] {Threei} meaning:
[10:16] {Threei} stock formed new range as it moves in your favor,
[10:16] {Threei} broke resistance of that range,
[10:16] {lumdus} vad, this wasn't trailing stop. this was a manual hard stop i put in.
[10:17] {Threei} now you can move stop under support of that reange
[10:17] {Threei} I under stand, but yoyu trailed it the same way
[10:17] {Threei} by arbitrary amount of cents, not by chart logic
[10:18] {lumdus} right .. but don't blame this on the trailing stop. this was a mental crack.
[10:18] {dptl} out ntap+.20 ty
[10:18] {Threei} welcome dp
[10:18] {esemde} out NTAP .72
[10:18] {Threei} yes lum, I realize that
[10:18] {esemde} be back in a while ...have to take vehicle to garage
[10:18] {esemde} seee ya in a bit
[10:18] {Threei} take care ese
[10:19] {Threei} one concern here lum:
[10:19] {Threei} was it accidental mental crack,
[10:19] {Threei} or was it approach that those autotrailing stops instill in your thinking?
[10:19] {Threei} give it a thought when you have time :)
[10:20] {Threei} and keep in mind, thinking causes headache...
[10:20] {Threei} in me at least
[10:20] {Threei} NTAP hit 1:1 nicely guys
[10:20] {Threei} hard to tell whether it has potential for more
[10:21] {Threei} even if you believe so, play it safe and take half
[10:21] {magoo} waiting .77
[10:21] {magoo} may be high
[10:21] {Threei} closest support right now is .64
[10:22] {curtisweese} NVDA buy at 22.38 or so?
[10:22] {Threei} if it can't take .73 and loses .64, holding full position would be questionable trade management
[10:22] {bruce} rimm looks headed for a break
[10:22] {bruce} of previous days high
[10:23] {Threei} curtis, tough read... not sure
[10:24] {curtisweese} heheh...dropping now.....not gonna get there anyway
[10:24] {magoo} still just scalpers mkt
[10:25] {Threei} look at volume last 20-30 minutes
[10:25] {Threei} all but disappeared
[10:27] {curtisweese} In on NVDA at 22.38
[10:28] {magoo} would u remind me that i hate IDMI next time u put it up
[10:28] {Threei} certainly
[10:28] {Threei} if I ever get to call it, it's going to be in the following format:
[10:28] {Threei} IDMI blah blah blah, magoo stay away
[10:29] {Threei} don't torture yourself, you are 3 cents down here, take your lumps and go if it takes too much of your attention
[10:29] {curtisweese} out NVDA +$.10
[10:30] {magoo} OUT .77
[10:30] {Threei} wtg
[10:30] {magoo} TY
[10:30] {magoo} more my type
[10:30] {Threei} I manage this trade differently but hey
[10:30] {Threei} there is more than 1 way to skin a stock
[10:30] {lumdus} in bby 44.73
[10:31] {Threei} my approach is, half out at 1:1, that was .72 for me,
[10:31] {Threei} stop to b/e,
[10:31] {Threei} now that it made new high, stop to .55
[10:32] {Threei} which is just below the support it formed by last pullback
[10:32] {Threei} will report what I do as (and if) it moves if you are interested
[10:39] {magoo} isn't there a new independent NTAPO trade setting up here? looks like 23 magnate
[10:39] {Threei} stop to .59
[10:40] {Threei} sure... just risk is higher
[10:41] {Threei} next spike will take NTAP into 1:2 where I intend to dump 1/4 more
[10:41] {curtisweese} looking at NVDA again if breaks 22.50 ....so .52 or so for me
[10:41] {Threei} and trail stop to .65
[10:44] {dino} fre s .70, stop hod
[10:45] {lumdus} vad, bby 45.59 stop ok ?
[10:45] {Threei} yes sir
[10:45] {lumdus} ok. thanks. i hate watching teva just go without me. kill me
[10:46] {Threei} out 1/4 more NTAP
[10:46] {magoo} see what i meant by magnate?
[10:46] {Threei} .95
[10:46] {Threei} by magnet I guess? :) yes
[10:46] {magoo} lol
[10:47] {Threei} stop to .73
[10:47] {Threei} move is quite significant, time to start tightenting it
[10:48] {bruce} zinc vad - any reade?
[10:48] {Threei} .79 is reasonable stop too here
[10:49] {curtisweese} in on NVDA at 22.51
[10:49] {Threei} a bit too thin bruce
[10:49] {bruce} k vad
[10:49] {Threei} rug pull on this one would cost a lot of slippage
[10:50] {dino} fre stopp .00, -.30
[10:50] {Threei} market looks like preparing to explode to the upside once again, so I am tightening NTAP to .79
[10:50] {Threei} logic is,
[10:50] {magoo} i like NTAP for a short scalp soon
[10:51] {Threei} if market does move up sharply, NTASP better go with it or I don't want to be in anymore,
[10:51] {Threei} and if market fails, NTAP is not likely to hold up there, moved a lot as it is
[10:52] {magoo} also, if mkt starts to fail, RIMM and NVDA short potential
[10:53] {dino} aapl sm l .90
[10:57] {lumdus} stop on bby 44.85
[10:57] {Threei} good trail lum
[10:58] {Threei} NTAP almost 1:3
[10:58] {Threei} out last portion
[10:58] {lumdus} tx vad

[10:58] {Threei} happy with the trade, +.21, +.44 and + .58
[10:59] {Threei} unless my math is wrong
[11:00] {lumdus} selling bby 45.08
[11:00] {lumdus} bby + .35
[11:00] {Threei} good trade lum, wtg
[11:00] {lumdus} tx
[11:01] {Threei} managed it just right
[11:01] {tomg} ty ntap vad, out 23.07
[11:01] {Threei} lol... tom comes back with thunder
[11:01] {tomg} :)
[11:01] {Threei} you know it's very rude of you to make such prfoit on your first day after long vacation?
[11:02] {magoo} vad, whats the symbol for NDX?
[11:02] {Threei} and you know what magoo does to people who act like this?
[11:02] {tomg} uh, oh...
[11:02] {Threei} $NDX mags
[11:03] {magoo} ty
[11:04] {dino} aapl stopped -.35
[11:07] {magoo} RIMM Short setup vad?
[11:08] {Threei} hmm
[11:09] {Threei} rather bounce if market doesn't dive
[11:09] {dino} teso s .05 stop .36
[11:10] {Threei} first strength from here, RIMM
[11:11] {Threei} in
[11:11] {Threei} stop .29
[11:12] {Threei} market is still unclear but risk is small
[11:12] {Threei} stopped
[11:12] {bruce} stopped rimm
[11:13] {magoo} i was thinking short way back on loss of 110
[11:13] {Threei} sideline for now, gotta let NQ decide on direction
[11:14] {Threei} 110 was behind at the time of the question...
[11:14] {magoo} was still thinking it
[11:14] {magoo} lol
[11:14] {Threei} just shows you how tough it is to comment in time on fast movers
[11:14] {magoo} true that
[11:15] {magoo} long RIMM now
[11:15] {magoo} in .37
[11:18] {Threei} wow TTWO
[11:18] {Threei} I don't see fresh news
[11:18] {magoo} on CNBC'
[11:18] {Threei} ah
[11:18] {dino} takeover offer at 25
[11:18] {bruce} erts offered to buy it out
[11:18] {Threei} 26 I think
[11:19] {magoo} stopped RIMM
[11:19] {esemde} I'm back.......TTWO I'll say......what was the news
[11:19] {dino} massive short squeeze, something like 40%
[11:19] {Threei} 02/24/08 03:26pm [TTWO] ERTS reveals a hostile $26.00/shr cash offer for TTWO in a $2B deal; TTWO has rejected the offer until at least the 4/30
[11:29] {bruce} out sigm +.41
[11:29] {Threei} wtg
[11:30] {dptl} glbl?
[11:30] {lumdus} nice bruce
[11:30] {bruce} thanx lum
[11:30] {bruce} lucky
[11:30] {bruce} thanx vad
[11:31] {Threei} GLBL chart is right... I am just hesitant about taking position here, market is very indecisive
[11:31] {dptl} ok
[11:35] {dino} teso stopped -.30
[11:40] {Threei} AAPL short with stop above .30
[11:40] {Threei} hard to nail exact entry
[11:41] {Threei} kind of "see if you can read it"
[11:41] {Threei} down quickly... don't chase that far
[11:41] {Threei} see if can get a bounce or new consolidation
[11:45] {bruce} stopped aapl
[11:50] {Threei} NTAP exit was just right so far
[11:50] {Threei} 4 cents under day high
[11:50] {Threei} keeping an eye on it still, maybe forms something
[11:51] {Threei} short off 23 resistance is one idea
[11:57] {Threei} ANY ABK DEAL WOULD LIKELY BE EARLY NEXT WEEK
[11:57] {Threei} reminder, ABK rumor was what started huge rally on Fri
[11:59] {magoo} are u short aapl?
[11:59] {Threei} I am flat
[11:59] {bruce} watching trma for weakness dino
[12:00] {Chaeron} I'm bald and fat
[12:05] {bruce} not me chaeron
[12:05] {bruce} just old and ugly
[12:06] {magoo} drunk and stupid here
[12:06] {Threei} aren't we attractive bunch
[12:06] {bruce} any read zolt vad?
[12:06] {Threei} ugh
[12:07] {Threei} twice I looked at it, twice kept myself from it, and twice was wrong
[12:07] {Threei} at 24, then at 24.5
[12:07] {Threei} I would really prefer a pullback on it rather than break
[12:08] {bruce} k
[12:14] {Threei} and what do you know... third break and no sign of pullback
[12:16] {Threei} now there is some
[12:16] {Threei} 25 is nearest support
[12:16] {Threei} if losing it, .75 next
[12:16] {bruce} I'm thinking possible short vad
[12:17] {Threei} considering weakening market, valid
[12:18] {Threei} it's just that again, I wouldn't want to chase it down
[12:18] {Threei} this drop we are seeing came with no indication of entry
[12:18] {bruce} agreed - wold like it to form second lower top
[12:18] {Threei} yes, or consolidation and breakdown
[12:29] {bruce} erts long on .30 break vad?
[12:30] {Threei} with .15 stop
[12:30] {Threei} most likely scalp only
[12:31] {Threei} it has downtrending look still, need more confirmation of reversal
[12:31] {Threei} .16 is actually still short trigger if stayys under .30
[12:35] {dino} grmn l sm .20
[12:37] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:37] * Chaeron slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:37] * magoo slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:37] {Threei} we are obviously very welcoming bunch too
[12:38] {Laserdave1} nice to see you guys as well
[12:38] {Laserdave1} hope weekend was good
[12:39] {Threei} ZOLT forms that double top bruce
[12:39] {Threei} 25 breakdown becomes short trigger if stays under first high
[12:40] {bruce} yep - just noticed that vad
[12:40] {Threei} actual stop will be defined by the high if this bounce
[12:40] {Threei} so far it's .25
[12:41] {bruce} prefer to see .22 hold for this top
[12:41] {bruce} got you - already hit .25
[12:45] {Threei} I don't like how ERTS sits here
[12:45] {Threei} if this NQ upward spike doesn't move it soon, it's still a short
[12:46] {bruce} s zolt .14 - stop .30
[12:47] {Threei} market spikes
[12:47] {Threei} if ZOLT can't use this spike, will be a good short
[12:51] {bruce} yes - enterd too early
[12:51] {Threei} not necessary
[12:51] {Threei} a bit aggressive but who said it's bad thing
[12:52] {bruce} market spiked right after entry
[12:52] {dino} spwr l sm .20
[12:52] {magoo} any rerad RIMM vad?like it long
[12:53] {Threei} sorry mags, no read
[12:53] {magoo} aapl?
[12:53] {Threei} 108 break was more or less decent trigger on RIMM
[12:53] {Threei} here, no
[12:53] {Threei} AAPL chart is even less readable
[12:54] {Chaeron} so nap time?
[12:54] {Threei} ERTS is trying
[12:55] {Threei} 1:1's reached
[12:58] {Threei} moves a bit higher but I preferto take scalp
[13:02] {bruce} stopped zolt -.16
[13:05] {bruce} vad - rimm as possible long near here?
[13:06] {Threei} with stop under .50
[13:06] {Threei} it's very much NQ-dependent
[13:06] {Threei} market will make or break this trade
[13:06] {esemde} Vad ddc please
[13:07] {bruce} missed it - was thinking .80break and notgoing to chase
[13:08] {magoo} l rimm .86
[13:11] {esemde} I'm otta here everyone....have a great rest of the day
[13:11] {magoo} bye ES

[13:12] {Threei} take care ese
[13:12] {bruce} l rimm .75
[13:15] {Threei} market is swamp right now
[13:17] {bruce} stopped rimm -.26
[13:17] {magoo} stopped rimm{again}
[13:18] {Threei} don't push it guys... sideline time
[13:18] {Threei} 5 points range
[13:21] {Threei} if a 50/50 trade with 6 cents stop is to your liking, short NVDA with .21 stop
[13:22] {Threei} downticked fast from .15 which I had in mind
[13:29] {bruce} rimm bounce at 108 vad?
[13:30] {Threei} can't tell bruce... market breaks down more so does RIMM
[13:30] {bruce} k
[13:31] {Threei} NVDA worked for a little scalp
[13:35] {Threei} pains me to say but... GRMN is short if losing .60
[13:35] {Threei} half lot .58 trigger
[13:36] {dino} grmn stopped
[13:36] {Threei} stop .75
[13:38] {magoo} target GRMN?
[13:39] {Threei} stop to .71, the rest is in NQ hands
[13:39] {Threei} not clear if it's breakdown for NQ or bounce off double bottom
[13:39] {Threei} feels like breakdown is more likely
[13:41] {Threei} NQ says yeah right
[13:43] {Threei} 1:1
[13:44] {Threei} I am out, can't get a read
[13:45] {Threei} RIMM bounce is not very impressive
[13:45] {Threei} looking to short .50 if market reverses down
[13:46] {magoo} grmn not with naz vad
[13:46] {magoo} weaker
[13:46] {Threei} nope, lost connection
[13:47] {Threei} RIMM is a bit too far from .50 support now for comfortable shorting on breakdown
[13:48] {Threei} if NQ drops, aggressive entry will be better idea
[13:48] {Threei} 108 is nearest resistance for stop/invalidating level
[13:48] {Threei} you still holding GRMN mags?
[13:49] {magoo} noi
[13:49] {magoo} out w/u
[13:49] {Threei} OK
[13:53] {Threei} psycho market again

[13:55] {dino} cat sm l .15
[13:55] {dino} oih rocking, brings market up
[13:56] {Threei} where are good old times of common sense when oil oing higher meant market going lower asnd visa versa
[13:56] {dino} long gone
[13:56] {Threei} sigh
[13:57] {bruce} tough trading for me lately - lots of stops
[13:57] {bruce} taking doggy walk break
[13:58] {dino} same here bruce
[13:58] {lumdus} in wye 42.20
[13:59] {Threei} NVDA long for a scalp here
[13:59] {Threei} with stop under 22
[14:01] {lumdus} bruce, better days ahead ..
[14:08] {Threei} NQ spike would be what is least expected here
[14:08] {Threei} considering market's unique ability to do the most unexpected things lately...
[14:08] {Threei} let's see if it does just that
[14:09] {lumdus} all you need to do, is put on the crazy hat and you make good in this market.
[14:09] {Threei} almost 3 points in single breath
[14:11] {Threei} how about that?

[14:14] {Threei} look at that
[14:15] {Threei} [14:09] {lumdus} all you need to do, is put on the crazy hat and you make good in this market.
[14:15] {Threei} exactly what I did, and look how flawlessly it worked
[14:17] {lumdus} yup, that's the way it works these day.
[14:17] {lumdus} i think we break .20 and move 1 big huge spike
[14:23] {Threei} NVDA stop to .04
[14:23] {magoo} target NVDA exit?
[14:23] {Threei} won't me to sounds honest or analyutical?
[14:23] {Threei} won't = want
[14:24] {magoo} not looking to good
[14:24] {Threei} honest version: I've no idea
[14:24] {Threei} you see how this market is
[14:25] {Threei} any questions?

[14:30] {Threei} [14:08] {Threei} considering market's unique ability to do the most unexpected things lately...
[14:30] {Threei} [14:08] {Threei} let's see if it does just that

[08:42] {Threei} FRPT ANNOUNCES $115M IN NEW FOREIGN ORDERS FOR COUGAR MASTIFF
- Received an order for an additional 174 Cougar Mastiff vehicles, vehicle spare parts, and field support for the UK Ministry of Defense.
[08:42] {Threei} - scheduled for completion by December 2008, with spare parts and field support coverage continuing through mid 2009.
[08:43] {Threei} this stock is neverending story of news propping it up, then decline as if all the positive effect disappears in thin air
[08:44] {cosmo} so.. they breed a dog/cat hybread?
[08:45] {Threei} no idea, I am not good at botany

[09:45] {bruce} cbey continues down - out +.20 quick scalp
[09:46] {dino} cov bby .61, +.24
[09:47] {Threei} keep an eye on RIMM guys, relative strength on it is remarkable
[09:47] {Threei} NQ makes new lows, RIMM retreats 20 cents
[09:47] {Threei} NQ barely bounces, RIMM makes new highs
[09:47] {bruce} I'm slow this morning dino- was looking for a stock with symbol bbys
[09:48] {Threei} any help by market, it will bust through 107 like knife
[09:48] {Threei} there

[09:50] {dino} l sigm .70
[09:50] {Threei} hopw do you like this on SIGM:
[09:50] {bruce} great exit mags - you caught exact top
[09:50] {Threei} 02/19/08 01:15am [SIGM] Baird Cuts SIGM to Neutral from Outperform, price target: $50.00
[09:52] {Threei} what's so great bruce, he sold 3 cents under high... pretty pitiful performance
[09:52] * Threei is hiding under the nearest rock
[09:52] {magoo} thats why i am poutting
[09:52] {Threei} lol
[09:52] {magoo} really fast..vad said watch it
[09:52] {magoo} i watched

[09:53] {Threei} see, thing with stocks like RIMM
[09:53] {bruce} intu on radar dino - want to see it drop more
[09:53] {magoo} sigh..spelling
[09:53] {dino} sigm stopped -.40
[09:53] {Threei} sometimes they give you time to alert of setup coming
[09:53] {Threei} and sometimes things happen so quickly that there is no way I could type it in time,
[09:53] {Threei} so what I opt to do is
[09:54] {Threei} alert when I can
[09:54] {Threei} and give general outlook on how to play it
[09:54] {Threei} so those of you who can read and catch it could act on your own, without delay caused by my typing
[09:55] {Threei} understandably, it's not a stock for everyone
[09:55] {magoo} u like it for bounce here?
[09:55] {Threei} has quite a personality
[09:55] {Threei} sure - if NQ bounces
[09:56] {Threei} .30 is nearest support
[09:56] {Threei} not anymore
[09:56] {magoo} grmn might be short if naz retreats vad
[09:57] {Threei} I am not sure they have much correlation
[09:57] {magoo} yeah, not in chart
[09:58] {bruce} with rimm you look for a small consolidation vad - 20 c or so - then break to one side with nq also moving that way?
[09:58] {Threei} one correction bruce
[09:59] {Threei} on a day like today I will aplly that to long but not to short
[09:59] {Threei} meaning I will go with this setup on a long side, and will remain on a sideline on shoert side
[09:59] {bruce} k- cause strngth seems long for it?
[09:59] {bruce} got you
[09:59] {Threei} with such relative strength as RIMM shows short is just very labored money
[09:59] {bruce} idea is to keep small stops
[09:59] {Threei} path of least resistance is up
[10:00] {Threei} and I like easy money
[10:00] {bruce} and ready to exit on first sign of slowing on it looks like from wqtching you trade it
[10:00] {dino} bby s .94 stop hod
[10:00] {Threei} well... that's my approach since I am as risk adverse as we human beings get
[10:01] {Threei} someone with more tolerance would probably keep part for a multipoint run
[10:01] {lumdus} in ccu 31.68 stop 31.49
[10:02] {bruce} a lot of 1 min candles in it are over 60c
[10:02] {bruce} so tough to keep 20 c stops init
[10:03] {Threei} thin stock always requires some padding
[10:03] {bruce} its not thin - just real fast
[10:04] {Threei} GRMN formed quite pronounced support at 63.80
[10:04] {Threei} watching if it holds
[10:04] {Threei} nope
[10:05] {Threei} no play
[10:05] {bruce} I hate grmn - erratic as hell
[10:06] {Threei} that's what we have to play these days, normal stocks just don't move
[10:06] {Threei} keep us prisoners for hours if we venture in them
[10:06] {Threei} and for the most part stop us out eventually
[10:06] {magoo} agree vad
[10:06] {Threei} enter TIVO yesterday
[10:06] {lumdus} yeah, i am just figuring that out now.
[10:06] {Threei} it all goes in cycles
[10:07] {Threei} one day those small safe ones will start moving like their sole purpose in life is to make us as much money as possible
[10:07] {bruce} fwiw - looks like grmn may find support about.50 and bounce there
[10:08] {dino} see, gap up open
[10:08] {Chaeron} gm all
[10:08] {Threei} ch :)'

[10:10] {bruce} pos
[10:11] {Threei} watching AMZN for breakout of 71.70 - 72 range

[10:50] {bruce} hope someone else gotcbey
[10:51] {Threei} my idea of answer to "why second/" would be: "that's how bad I am, can't even be THE worst at this"

[12:30] {bruce} ofix trying to recover some now dino
[12:31] {Chaeron} - Indices resume a downward trajectory as credit market fears continue to weigh. Major publications continue to point to signs of further deterioration in the functioning a variety of fixed income markets.
[12:31] {Chaeron} The WSJ noted that two indices that track the cost of buying insurance on bonds issued by 125 large companies have doubled since the beginning of the year, a sign that the financial squeeze that began in investments linked to subprime mortgages has spread. A separate article noted that the CMBX Index, which tracks the value of bonds backed by commercial mortgages, suggest rough waters ahead for that industry as well.
[12:32] {Threei} really
[12:32] {Chaeron} nope, not foolin'
[12:34] {dino} maybe bruce, tough one ofix

[13:05] {Threei} WHITE HOUSE: HAS 'NO CONFIDENCE' IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM IS PEACEFUL UNTIL IT MEETS ITS OBLIGATIONS
[13:07] {dino} like anybody's is strickly peaceful. issue is a joke
[13:07] {Threei} I am strictly peaceful
[13:07] {Threei} especially when my gun is loaded
[13:08] {Threei} and safety's off
[13:08] {Chaeron} lol

[13:23] {bruce} you're right vad
[13:23] {bruce} slackers my middle name
[13:24] {Threei} I know, I wanted to claim it and found out it was taken
[13:24] {bruce} would feel guilty if I weren't following your example
[13:29] {Threei} AAPl looks like short on bounce
[13:29] {Threei} as close to 118 as can get
[13:31] {Threei} practically no bounce... .80 was the best it could do
[13:31] {bruce} around 118 w 30 c stop vad?
[13:32] {Threei} it's gone bruce
[13:32] {Threei} no bounce to short into, and too far from there now
[13:32] {Threei} if it does go as high as 118 from here, it's a whole new setup, need to reevaluate
[13:33] {bruce} for now - but may still come back to 118
[13:33] {bruce} k
[13:33] {bruce} thanx
[13:33] {Threei} look at it this way
[13:33] {Threei} it dropped 60 cents,
[13:34] {Threei} if it can gather as much strength as needed to go all the way back, you better look again because it can be a sign of reversal
[13:34] {Threei} don't enter on price alone
[13:34] {Threei} see how it acted to get to that price
[13:35] {bruce} looks to me like its droppingin about1 buck on major breaks
[13:36] {bruce} we might still be able to short here w .70 stop
[13:38] {magoo} aapl .looks like following naz, any thoughts?
[13:39] {Threei} it does mostly but its weaker
[13:39] {Threei} I would play it on short side only
[13:43] {magoo} u reading rimm at all..maybe short
[13:44] {Threei} rather short than long, but there is no clean compelling setup
[13:45] {Threei} I don't want to fire half-baked entries at you, it's a sure way to get unnecessary stops
[13:46] {bruce} k
[13:46] {magoo} are u drinking already on this snowy wintery day?
[13:46] {Threei} snowy?
[13:46] {Threei} wintery?

[13:47] {bruce} was watching aapl - you didn't think the .43 break was worth a try vad?

[13:59] {bruce} yes - -at least todays chart is
[13:59] {Threei} and yes, looks like good short if market helps
[14:00] {Threei} AAPl worked direction wise but exact entry/stop on it was practically unreadable
[14:02] {bruce} yes - those are tough ones
[14:02] {bruce} big stops if they don't work
[14:02] {bruce} and lots of moving around til they prove themselves
[14:04] {magoo} i like amzn short....any thoughts

[14:22] {Threei} FED'S FISHER: FED MUST BE MINDFUL OF DUAL MANDATE, 'PERVASIVE PESSIMISM' IS INFECTING BUSINESS OUTLOOK - Q-A
[14:23] {Threei} - Says central bank must take care not to stir up inflation, noting Fed is having serious discussion regarding inflation pressures, and see rises in US inflation partly due to higher food and energy costs outside Fed control given most of inflation pressure is globally driven
[14:23] {Threei} - Sees 'economic anemia" for couple of quarters, growth risks could suffer more than expected and rate cuts take at least six months to have influence
[14:23] {Threei} - Says Fed must take care that policy action does not impact economy while preventing economy from slipping into prolonged recession and cannot help but worry about an economy that has become infected
[14:23] {Threei} - Stimulus package will be positive if enacted quickly and could also boost consumer spending while Long-term liabilities are biggest fiscal concern
[14:23] {Threei} - Says 'highly unlikely' Governor nominees to join Fed
[14:23] {Threei} - Notes it is possible for policymaker to dissent without disagreeing with policy direction

[15:33] {magoo} vad, again
[15:33] {Threei} I didn't pick price
[15:33] {Threei} it was sharp selloff that required one more step down to complete panic
[15:34] {magoo} ahhhhhhhhhhh
[15:34] {magoo} beer
[15:34] {Threei} when this step down materialized, first strength was to buy
[15:34] {Threei} cross back over 116 showed just that
[15:34] {Chaeron} nas nuts

[15:46] {lumdus} oh, +.55 - good
[15:46] {magoo} dino said"u short aaple mags?"
[15:46] {bruce} put in more memory lum
[15:46] {bruce} should help
[15:47] {magoo} i said"cyber can't handle it dino" lol
[15:47] {Threei} you were lucky enough to be away on couple very active days when your brokerage experienced troubles keeping up
[15:47] {Threei} one day you won't be that lucky
[15:47] {lumdus} sh appl again 118.50 stp .61
[15:48] {lumdus} vad, i talk soon .. watching my crap here.
[15:48] {dino} lol
[15:48] {magoo} vad, got anything into bell?
[15:48] {Threei} ABK
[15:48] {Threei} MAKING SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS ON RECAPITILIZATION, ANNOUNCEMENT ON POSSIBLE BAILOUT COULD COME EARLY NEXT WEEK - CNBCS GASPARINO
[15:48] {lumdus} stop on aapl .49 break even
[15:49] {lumdus} vad, my brokerage have trailing stop, that why i like it.
[15:49] {lumdus} out aapl .19
[15:49] {bruce} sheesh vad - we just needed to hold that long in rimm a little longer
[15:49] {Threei} I suspect that was the news that propped market
[15:49] {Threei} you are very mistaken on it lum, IMO
[15:49] {lumdus} +.31 ..
[15:49] {Threei} trailing stop you apply makes no sense
[15:49] {Threei} it trails by certain amount of cents
[15:49] {Threei} this is not the way to trail it
[15:50] {Threei} stop should be trailed as and where new support levels are formed
[15:50] {lumdus} I know, but for my style , when a stock runs i don't have good control - has worked for me very well . I am not as controlled as you are.
[15:50] {Threei} not by formal amount of cents
[15:50] {Threei} the sdame way as original placement is not done by cents but by chart copnfiguration
[15:50] {lumdus} vad, yes - but think of aapl like now. I need that trailing - because it's wacky. i put it in walk away ..
[15:50] {Threei} hell
[15:51] {Threei} who walks away while trading AAPl
[15:51] {Threei} you are kidding :)
[15:51] {lumdus} i do , with trailing stop
[15:51] {Threei} what can I say
[15:51] {Threei} this is not the way to do it
[15:51] {lumdus} you see once it breaks support and start to run , i put the trailing stop and walk away.
[15:52] {Threei} you think it works because you haven't tracked it properly
[15:52] {Threei} want fresh example?
[15:52] {Threei} your trailing stop took you out of that long
[15:52] {Threei} when there was no slightest reason to exit
[15:52] {Threei} not at high, not at stop, not at sign of reversal
[15:53] {Threei} just in the middle of nowhere
[15:53] {lumdus} ok, but at least it protects me from loses. that's what i focus on.
[15:53] {Threei} [15:26] {lumdus} ok, i got .10 trailing stop now.
[15:53] {Threei} [15:27] {lumdus} out .17 + .14
[15:53] {Threei} this one
[15:54] {lumdus} right +.14 is better then negative
[15:54] {Threei} from losses - put your initial stop in if you suspect you may get overwhelmed by emotions
[15:54] {Threei} but to trail it like this is incorrect
[15:54] {Threei} no lum... sorry, this is wrong way to look at it
[15:55] {lumdus} ok, will need to redo myself here.
[15:55] {Threei} let's talk about it more next week
[15:55] {lumdus} ok.
[15:56] {lumdus} damm this market what a reversal that was
[15:56] {Threei} glad we got this trade on th last hour
[15:56] {Threei} made up for boring afternoon

[15:59] {Threei} perfect
[16:00] {Threei} don't force it
[16:00] {magoo} that was the yes and no
[16:00] {Threei} try to seek it actively, and you find yourself pushing it
[16:00] {Threei} wait for it to come to you, it happens naturally

[08:42] {Threei} - scheduled for completion by December 2008, with spare parts and field support coverage continuing through mid 2009.
[08:43] {Threei} this stock is neverending story of news propping it up, then decline as if all the positive effect disappears in thin air
[08:44] {cosmo} so.. they breed a dog/cat hybread?
[08:45] {Threei} no idea, I am not good at botany

[09:33] {Threei} GRMN .50 long small if holding above .30
[09:34] {Threei} still valid

[09:39] {bruce} you want to try grmn as pullback vad?
[09:39] {Threei} wait

[09:40] {dptl} thx Dino
[09:41] {Threei} anyone caught it?
[09:41] {Threei} see big red bar 9:39 NASDAQ?
[09:41] {lumdus} s wb 32.94 stop 33.03
[09:41] {Threei} and barely couple downticks RIMM
[09:41] {bruce} too late for me vad - paased trigger when I pulled it up
[09:41] {Threei} dead giveaway
[09:42] {Threei} was available just couple cents higher for a few bruce
[09:42] {Threei} I got .18
[09:42] {dino} bby s .85, stop .17
[09:45] {bruce} cbey continues down - out +.20 quick scalp
[09:46] {dino} cov bby .61, +.24
[09:47] {Threei} keep an eye on RIMM guys, relative strength on it is remarkable
[09:47] {Threei} NQ makes new lows, RIMM retreats 20 cents
[09:47] {Threei} NQ barely bounces, RIMM makes new highs
[09:47] {bruce} I'm slow this morning dino- was looking for a stock with symbol bbys
[09:48] {Threei} any help by market, it will bust through 107 like knife
[09:48] {Threei} there
[09:48] {dino} :)
[09:48] {dino} sigm?
[09:49] {magoo} just caugty rimm
[09:49] {magoo} .70 to .09
[09:49] {magoo} to fast
[09:49] {magoo} to pout in here
[09:49] {bruce} nice mags
[09:49] {dino} why pout?
[09:50] {dino} l sigm .70
[09:50] {Threei} hopw do you like this on SIGM:
[09:50] {bruce} great exit mags - you caught exact top
[09:50] {Threei} 02/19/08 01:15am [SIGM] Baird Cuts SIGM to Neutral from Outperform, price target: $50.00
[09:52] {Threei} what's so great bruce, he sold 3 cents under high... pretty pitiful performance
[09:52] * Threei is hiding under the nearest rock
[09:52] {magoo} thats why i am poutting
[09:52] {Threei} lol
[09:52] {magoo} really fast..vad said watch it
[09:52] {magoo} i watched
[09:53] {magoo} hoit-layourt lucky
[09:53] {Threei} see, thing with stocks like RIMM
[09:53] {bruce} intu on radar dino - want to see it drop more
[09:53] {magoo} sigh..spelling
[09:53] {dino} sigm stopped -.40
[09:53] {Threei} sometimes they give you time to alert of setup coming
[09:53] {Threei} and sometimes things happen so quickly that there is no way I could type it in time,
[09:53] {Threei} so what I opt to do is
[09:54] {Threei} alert when I can
[09:54] {Threei} and give general outlook on how to play it
[09:54] {Threei} so those of you who can read and catch it could act on your own, without delay caused by my typing
[09:55] {Threei} understandably, it's not a stock for everyone
[09:55] {magoo} u like it for bounce here?
[09:55] {Threei} has quite a personality
[09:55] {Threei} sure - if NQ bounces
[09:56] {Threei} .30 is nearest support
[09:56] {Threei} not anymore
[09:56] {magoo} grmn might be short if naz retreats vad
[09:57] {Threei} I am not sure they have much correlation
[09:57] {magoo} yeah, not in chart
[09:58] {bruce} with rimm you look for a small consolidation vad - 20 c or so - then break to one side with nq also moving that way?
[09:58] {Threei} one correction bruce
[09:59] {Threei} on a day like today I will aplly that to long but not to short
[09:59] {Threei} meaning I will go with this setup on a long side, and will remain on a sideline on shoert side
[09:59] {bruce} k- cause strngth seems long for it?
[09:59] {bruce} got you
[09:59] {Threei} with such relative strength as RIMM shows short is just very labored money
[09:59] {bruce} idea is to keep small stops
[09:59] {Threei} path of least resistance is up
[10:00] {Threei} and I like easy money
[10:00] {bruce} and ready to exit on first sign of slowing on it looks like from wqtching you trade it
[10:00] {dino} bby s .94 stop hod
[10:00] {Threei} well... that's my approach since I am as risk adverse as we human beings get
[10:01] {Threei} someone with more tolerance would probably keep part for a multipoint run
[10:01] {lumdus} in ccu 31.68 stop 31.49
[10:02] {bruce} a lot of 1 min candles in it are over 60c
[10:02] {bruce} so tough to keep 20 c stops init
[10:03] {Threei} thin stock always requires some padding
[10:03] {bruce} its not thin - just real fast
[10:04] {Threei} GRMN formed quite pronounced support at 63.80
[10:04] {Threei} watching if it holds
[10:04] {Threei} nope
[10:05] {Threei} no play
[10:05] {bruce} I hate grmn - erratic as hell
[10:06] {Threei} that's what we have to play these days, normal stocks just don't move
[10:06] {Threei} keep us prisoners for hours if we venture in them
[10:06] {Threei} and for the most part stop us out eventually
[10:06] {magoo} agree vad
[10:06] {Threei} enter TIVO yesterday
[10:06] {lumdus} yeah, i am just figuring that out now.
[10:06] {Threei} it all goes in cycles
[10:07] {Threei} one day those small safe ones will start moving like their sole purpose in life is to make us as much money as possible
[10:07] {bruce} fwiw - looks like grmn may find support about.50 and bounce there
[10:08] {dino} see, gap up open
[10:08] {Chaeron} gm all
[10:08] {Threei} ch :)'
[10:09] {Chaeron} looks like a littl.e cigar butt hanging there from that smile Vad... a bit early for that no? :)
[10:09] {Threei} lol
[10:10] {Threei} AMZN starts looking interesting
[10:10] {esemde} long VCLM19.09
[10:10] {dino} bby stopped .13, -.19
[10:10] {bruce} thats what I hat4e about grmn - bounced at .50 as suspected - only moved 20c - then moved to stop and continue
[10:10] {bruce} pos

[12:30] {bruce} ofix trying to recover some now dino
[12:31] {Chaeron} - Indices resume a downward trajectory as credit market fears continue to weigh. Major publications continue to point to signs of further deterioration in the functioning a variety of fixed income markets.
[12:31] {Chaeron} The WSJ noted that two indices that track the cost of buying insurance on bonds issued by 125 large companies have doubled since the beginning of the year, a sign that the financial squeeze that began in investments linked to subprime mortgages has spread. A separate article noted that the CMBX Index, which tracks the value of bonds backed by commercial mortgages, suggest rough waters ahead for that industry as well.
[12:32] {Threei} really
[12:32] {Chaeron} nope, not foolin'

[13:05] {Threei} WHITE HOUSE: HAS 'NO CONFIDENCE' IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM IS PEACEFUL UNTIL IT MEETS ITS OBLIGATIONS
[13:07] {dino} like anybody's is strickly peaceful. issue is a joke
[13:07] {Threei} I am strictly peaceful
[13:07] {Threei} especially when my gun is loaded
[13:08] {Threei} and safety's off
[13:08] {Chaeron} lol
[13:09] {magoo} get to work would u lol
[13:10] {Threei} see, magoo ruins my extreme peacefullness

[13:23] {bruce} you're right vad
[13:23] {bruce} slackers my middle name
[13:24] {Threei} I know, I wanted to claim it and found out it was taken
[13:24] {bruce} would feel guilty if I weren't following your example
[13:29] {Threei} AAPl looks like short on bounce
[13:29] {Threei} as close to 118 as can get
[13:31] {Threei} practically no bounce... .80 was the best it could do
[13:31] {bruce} around 118 w 30 c stop vad?
[13:32] {Threei} it's gone bruce
[13:32] {Threei} no bounce to short into, and too far from there now
[13:32] {Threei} if it does go as high as 118 from here, it's a whole new setup, need to reevaluate
[13:33] {bruce} for now - but may still come back to 118
[13:33] {bruce} k
[13:33] {bruce} thanx
[13:33] {Threei} look at it this way
[13:33] {Threei} it dropped 60 cents,
[13:34] {Threei} if it can gather as much strength as needed to go all the way back, you better look again because it can be a sign of reversal
[13:34] {Threei} don't enter on price alone
[13:34] {Threei} see how it acted to get to that price
[13:35] {bruce} looks to me like its droppingin about1 buck on major breaks
[13:36] {bruce} we might still be able to short here w .70 stop
[13:38] {magoo} aapl .looks like following naz, any thoughts?
[13:39] {Threei} it does mostly but its weaker
[13:39] {Threei} I would play it on short side only
[13:43] {magoo} u reading rimm at all..maybe short
[13:44] {Threei} rather short than long, but there is no clean compelling setup
[13:45] {Threei} I don't want to fire half-baked entries at you, it's a sure way to get unnecessary stops
[13:46] {bruce} k
[13:46] {magoo} are u drinking already on this snowy wintery day?
[13:46] {Threei} snowy?
[13:46] {Threei} wintery?

[13:47] {bruce} was watching aapl - you didn't think the .43 break was worth a try vad?

[13:59] {bruce} yes - -at least todays chart is
[13:59] {Threei} and yes, looks like good short if market helps
[14:00] {Threei} AAPl worked direction wise but exact entry/stop on it was practically unreadable
[14:02] {bruce} yes - those are tough ones
[14:02] {bruce} big stops if they don't work
[14:02] {bruce} and lots of moving around til they prove themselves
[14:04] {magoo} i like amzn short....any thoughts

[14:22] {Threei} FED'S FISHER: FED MUST BE MINDFUL OF DUAL MANDATE, 'PERVASIVE PESSIMISM' IS INFECTING BUSINESS OUTLOOK - Q-A
[14:23] {Threei} - Says central bank must take care not to stir up inflation, noting Fed is having serious discussion regarding inflation pressures, and see rises in US inflation partly due to higher food and energy costs outside Fed control given most of inflation pressure is globally driven
[14:23] {Threei} - Sees 'economic anemia" for couple of quarters, growth risks could suffer more than expected and rate cuts take at least six months to have influence
[14:23] {Threei} - Says Fed must take care that policy action does not impact economy while preventing economy from slipping into prolonged recession and cannot help but worry about an economy that has become infected
[14:23] {Threei} - Stimulus package will be positive if enacted quickly and could also boost consumer spending while Long-term liabilities are biggest fiscal concern
[14:23] {Threei} - Says 'highly unlikely' Governor nominees to join Fed
[14:23] {Threei} - Notes it is possible for policymaker to dissent without disagreeing with policy direction

[15:33] {Threei} it was sharp selloff that required one more step down to complete panic
[15:34] {magoo} ahhhhhhhhhhh
[15:34] {magoo} beer
[15:34] {Threei} when this step down materialized, first strength was to buy
[15:34] {Threei} cross back over 116 showed just that

[15:48] {Threei} MAKING SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS ON RECAPITILIZATION, ANNOUNCEMENT ON POSSIBLE BAILOUT COULD COME EARLY NEXT WEEK - CNBCS GASPARINO
[15:48] {lumdus} stop on aapl .49 break even
[15:49] {lumdus} vad, my brokerage have trailing stop, that why i like it.
[15:49] {lumdus} out aapl .19
[15:49] {bruce} sheesh vad - we just needed to hold that long in rimm a little longer
[15:49] {Threei} I suspect that was the news that propped market
[15:49] {Threei} you are very mistaken on it lum, IMO
[15:49] {lumdus} +.31 ..
[15:49] {Threei} trailing stop you apply makes no sense
[15:49] {Threei} it trails by certain amount of cents
[15:49] {Threei} this is not the way to trail it
[15:50] {Threei} stop should be trailed as and where new support levels are formed
[15:50] {lumdus} I know, but for my style , when a stock runs i don't have good control - has worked for me very well . I am not as controlled as you are.
[15:50] {Threei} not by formal amount of cents
[15:50] {Threei} the sdame way as original placement is not done by cents but by chart copnfiguration
[15:50] {lumdus} vad, yes - but think of aapl like now. I need that trailing - because it's wacky. i put it in walk away ..
[15:50] {Threei} hell
[15:51] {Threei} who walks away while trading AAPl
[15:51] {Threei} you are kidding :)
[15:51] {lumdus} i do , with trailing stop
[15:51] {Threei} what can I say
[15:51] {Threei} this is not the way to do it
[15:51] {lumdus} you see once it breaks support and start to run , i put the trailing stop and walk away.
[15:52] {Threei} you think it works because you haven't tracked it properly
[15:52] {Threei} want fresh example?
[15:52] {Threei} your trailing stop took you out of that long
[15:52] {Threei} when there was no slightest reason to exit
[15:52] {Threei} not at high, not at stop, not at sign of reversal
[15:53] {Threei} just in the middle of nowhere
[15:53] {lumdus} ok, but at least it protects me from loses. that's what i focus on.
[15:53] {Threei} [15:26] {lumdus} ok, i got .10 trailing stop now.
[15:53] {Threei} [15:27] {lumdus} out .17 + .14
[15:53] {Threei} this one
[15:54] {lumdus} right +.14 is better then negative
[15:54] {Threei} from losses - put your initial stop in if you suspect you may get overwhelmed by emotions
[15:54] {Threei} but to trail it like this is incorrect
[15:54] {Threei} no lum... sorry, this is wrong way to look at it
[15:55] {lumdus} ok, will need to redo myself here.
[15:55] {Threei} let's talk about it more next week
[15:55] {lumdus} ok.
[15:56] {lumdus} damm this market what a reversal that was
[15:56] {Threei} glad we got this trade on th last hour
[15:56] {Threei} made up for boring afternoon
[15:56] {Threei} thank you all

[16:00] {Threei} try to seek it actively, and you find yourself pushing it

[14:31] {Threei} 1785 is now critical level for NQ
[14:31] {Threei} if we break it, uptrend should hold for a while
[14:32] {Threei} and if downtrend resumes, NVDA will be my short candidate
[14:34] {Threei} not looking to go long NVDA, doesn't feel appealing
[14:36] {Threei} AAPL intriguing
[14:36] {Threei} long as close to 123 as possible
[14:37] {Threei} stop under 122.90
[14:37] {Threei} NQ breaks 1785, AAPL should give .35-.40 easy
[14:38] {Threei} in
[14:39] {Threei} no worky

[14:46] {Threei} AMZN is having bad case of deforestation or what
[14:48] {curtisweese} i lost on that short :( -$.22
[14:48] {Threei} GRMN?
[14:49] {curtisweese} i short....nasdaq drops a lot and GRMN decides to spike up....lol
[14:49] {Threei} why you insist on trading it?
[14:49] {Threei} leave it alone, it's not an easy stock to navigate today
[14:49] {Threei} also, compare its chart with one of NASDAQ
[14:49] {Threei} do you see mcuh correlation?
[14:50] {curtisweese} no
[14:50] {Threei} it trades on its own today
[14:51] {magoo} vad, aapl bounce??
[14:51] {Threei} not sure

[14:59] {Threei} after that .70-.80 should be piece of cake
[15:01] {Threei} NASDAQ just can't hold anything today, can it
[15:03] {Threei} can't believe I missed NVDA short
[15:08] {curtisweese} Don't hate me but I bought GRMN big at 62.61 I couldn't help it, it is soooo cheap
[15:08] {curtisweese} okay, i gotta go though....quick scalp and out

[14:27] {Chaeron} .
[14:28] {magoo} bye dp:)
[14:31] {Threei} 1785 is now critical level for NQ
[14:31] {Threei} if we break it, uptrend should hold for a while
[14:32] {Threei} and if downtrend resumes, NVDA will be my short candidate
[14:34] {Threei} not looking to go long NVDA, doesn't feel appealing
[14:36] {Threei} AAPL intriguing
[14:36] {Threei} long as close to 123 as possible
[14:37] {Threei} stop under 122.90
[14:37] {Threei} NQ breaks 1785, AAPL should give .35-.40 easy
[14:38] {Threei} in
[14:39] {Threei} no worky
[14:39] {Chaeron} out AAPL -.11
[14:39] {Threei} same
[14:39] {Threei} price of aggresive entry
[14:39] {curtisweese} out GRMN +$.22
[14:40] {curtisweese} shorting GRMN now at 62.85
[14:43] {Threei} missed NVDA close to .60 resissatnce, was at .54 when NASDAQ started its descend
[14:43] {Threei} grr
[14:46] {Threei} AMZN is having bad case of deforestation or what
[14:48] {curtisweese} i lost on that short :( -$.22
[14:48] {Threei} GRMN?
[14:49] {curtisweese} i short....nasdaq drops a lot and GRMN decides to spike up....lol
[14:49] {Threei} why you insist on trading it?
[14:49] {Threei} leave it alone, it's not an easy stock to navigate today
[14:49] {Threei} also, compare its chart with one of NASDAQ
[14:49] {Threei} do you see mcuh correlation?
[14:50] {curtisweese} no
[14:50] {Threei} it trades on its own today
[14:51] {magoo} vad, aapl bounce??
[14:51] {Threei} not sure
[14:51] {Threei} but what the hell is going on with AMZN?
[14:52] {magoo} u thinkin bounce?
[14:52] {Threei} yes, .30 long .10 stop
[14:53] {Threei} double bottom comfirmation

[14:55] {magoo} in .25
[14:55] {Threei} no
[14:55] {dino} cya curt
[14:55] {Threei} .25 is resistance by big seller
[14:55] {Threei} need to see his giving up first
[14:56] {Threei} there... now it should go
[14:56] {Chaeron} sigh.... AMZN... nice aggressive entry magoo
[14:58] {Threei} .50 break is next milestone
[14:58] {magoo} out .45 TY
[14:59] {Threei} after that .70-.80 should be piece of cake
[15:01] {Threei} NASDAQ just can't hold anything today, can it
[15:03] {Threei} can't believe I missed NVDA short
[15:08] {curtisweese} Don't hate me but I bought GRMN big at 62.61 I couldn't help it, it is soooo cheap
[15:08] {curtisweese} okay, i gotta go though....quick scalp and out
[15:08] {Threei} lol
[15:08] {Threei} we won't hate you this time
[15:08] {Threei} but tomorrow will be totally different story

[15:21] {dino} thought so, but...
[15:21] {dino} am waiting at 63.34, but depends
[15:22] {curtisweese} if market comes back just a bit, it runs past i think...but market sucks
[15:22] {dino} agree
[15:23] {dino} on all counts
