06[13:29] * nemo gives vad a tissue
[13:29] {Threei}  it's a pure personal tolerance matter ese... I felt FAZ had some momentum, enough to overcome .50
[13:29] {Threei}  so I offered .51
[13:30] {Threei}  and I hated my performance over last three days so much that I flet I could press just a tad more on a first day when I finally start getting it right
[13:31] {Threei}  I am not pressing in a sense of trying to be overly active yet,
[13:31] {ese} was it prints you were looking at
[13:31] {ese} gave you that feeling
[13:31] {Threei}  but when a trade started moving, at least holding for 1:1 made sense to me :)

[13:32] {ese} hmmm  yes....now that i'm looking at it
[13:32] {Threei}  volume started increasing toward this break
[13:33] {Threei}  thick stocks rarely trade straight up or down, it's always uptick/downtick,
[13:33] {Threei}  this one after the break started making 3 upticks/one downtick dance
[13:33] {Threei}  so... kind of working
[13:33] {Threei}  I let it work
[13:33] {ese} ya ...i'm not use to that yet.....got an uneasy feeling....
[13:34] {ese} call it lack of experience
[13:35] {ese} faz is thick for sure 222,000,000 shs to this point

The same pattern third day in a row: a few nice wins, a few stops, could have slept in just as well. Not many setups end in follow through instead of shakeout.

[08:39] {Threei}  FAS is dropping fast

[08:49] {ese} Does that index cease to exist?
[08:49] {nemo} I don't know the exact mechanics, but these ultra etfs are recalibrated every night
[08:50] {ese} every night?   how so and why?   i don't understand
[08:51] {nemo} They're designed as short-term trading vehicles.  I don't understand the exact mechanics, but that is what happens
[08:51] {ese} as hedges against existing positions
[08:52] {ese} like trading the S&P futures i would imagine
[08:53] {nemo} that would make sense.  They hold a combination of underlying stocks and options on those stocks.  I'm not sure any of these can go to zero.  It's probably an asymptotic dynamic as you get closer to zero.  Also, volatility, or lack there of is a factor in the price of the issue because volatility affects the price of the options

[11:12] {nemo} use the force Vader
[11:12] {nemo} Oh shit, my RAM monitor is at 666
[11:12] {Threei}  in my eyes, these market retreats are nothing but pullbacks bfore another runup
[11:13] {dino} ceph
[11:13] {fernp} DRYS double bottom
[11:13] {Threei}  but atempts to find the entry points were quite futile yesterday and, so far, today
[11:13] {Threei}  gotta take it on faith, which I hate
[11:13] {jfjf64} my eyes  black  and  blue
[11:15] {jfjf64} comon a joke    lol  lol    
[11:15] {Threei}  we are obviously going through some change in the market
[11:15] {nemo} I"n your eyes, the light the heat"
[11:15] {Threei}  a few days at the beginning of such changes are always tough,
[11:15] {Threei}  as old methods stop working,
[11:16] {Threei}  new ones are not found yet
[11:16] {nemo} switch to summer but volumes this morning are reasonable
[11:16] {Threei}  this is not a switch to summer

[11:16] {chinggis} any read on SKS vad?

[11:28] {nemo} seeing dead people again?
[11:28] {Threei}  what people?
[11:28] {Threei}  let's see:
[11:29] {chinggis} GIL
[11:29] {Threei}  if today is repeat of yesterday, and so far it looks very similar,
[11:29] {Threei}  we will bottom out after a few shakeouts
[11:29] {nemo} fas scalp @ 3:30
[11:29] {Threei}  and resume runup
[11:29] {Threei}  problem is, attempts to find the turning point have no technicals under them,
[11:30] {Threei}  so there is no way to tell just how many shakeouts we get inti
[11:30] {Threei}  that's what killed yesterday
[11:30] {dino} lol nemo
[11:30] {Threei}  so, the question you need o answer for yourself is:
[11:30] {Threei}  continue trying or wait the whole thing out
[11:30] {nemo} do you feel lucky?
[11:31] {nemo} sorry, "Do you feel lucky, punk?"
[11:31] {dino} the way i see it is simple....they got it, i want it

[11:37] {Threei}  HBAN, aim to sell half between .95 and 5
[11:37] {Threei}  DTYS, either undcer .20 or under .15, depending on your objectives

[13:07] {Threei}  Just wanted to say again how grateful I am for your program. I've been going with the program and my plan, adjusting it as I go, and it just works! I don't even worry about things anymore, I just trade my plan. Yes at times I take some losses, but I actually seem to love those small losses, and that is weird, compared to previous state I used to have.
[13:07] {Threei}  The gains are much larger and without worries that I used to have. I haven't been able to get to this state of mind and these kinds of results with any other system or educational materials. You seem to have touch on the perfect points that made it click for me!
[13:07] {Threei}  I really appreciate it!
[13:07] {Threei}  I skip the name
[13:08] {dino} very nice vad, good job
[13:09] {Threei}  yeah, this kind of things makes me feel I do it for some good purpose
[13:09] {nemo} Hey, I only take paper cuts now compared to before coming here.  
[13:09] {dino} itri spikes again
[13:09] {nemo} did they have earnings today?
[13:10] {nemo} Plus, the structured exits keep my greed from losing me more
[13:11] {nemo} Although, I'm not sure you're supposed to have this much fun
[13:11] {dino} then get mad
[13:11] {Threei}  see, main thing is:
[13:11] {nemo} Dino...in my other pursuits when I'm mad, I'm having fun
[13:12] {Threei}  most of you here watch me doing it for years, some for months
[13:12] {nemo} I tracked your daily log for a looong time
[13:12] {Threei}  anyone saw a setback I wouldn't recover from in just a few days?? :)
[13:13] {nemo} No...what amazed me was the run from last Summer through the end of the year.
[13:13] {Threei}  just don't take any of those as more than pullback
[13:13] {fernp} nope
[13:13] {Threei}  nothing happens without pullbacks, setbacks, retreats
[13:13] {magoo} HEY..i askeed u not topost that he  he
[13:14] {Threei}  no trend goes without pullbacks,
[13:14] {nemo} what? pictures of Mags? now that's pornography
[13:14] {Threei}  no good runs occur without bad days
[13:14] {Threei}  yin and yang anyone?
[13:14] {nemo} It ain't about the celebrating, it's what you do when you get knocked down
[13:14] {Threei}  oneness of opposites?
[13:14] {Threei}  excatly
[13:15] {Threei}  you shrug, dust yourself off and go kick a$$
[13:15] {nemo} Don't know what good is unless you have bad by which to measure it
[13:15] {Threei}  there you go
[13:16] {Threei}  this is so ingrained, I don't even see the need to talk about it to say honestly,
[13:16] {Threei}  but when you guys start crying about couple days of stops
[13:16] {nemo} For you yes, although, repetition is the mother of all teaching
[13:16] {Threei}  I start feeling like giving lecture
06[13:16] * nemo crawls into his cave
[13:16] {Threei}  because I know magoo hates hose
[13:17] {Threei}  and I enjoy making him suffer
06[13:17] * nemo closes door
[13:17] {Threei}  and no magoo, that was not your e-mail
[13:17] {magoo} yes it was
[13:17] {Threei}  yours I wouldn't dare to quote for the world of me

[13:31] {nemo} patterns have been the same forever
[13:31] {dino} stopped -.46
[13:31] {Threei}  (US) FED'S STERN: MARKET CONDITIONS HAVE IMPROVED A BIT; "TOO BIG TO FAIL" MUST BE ADDRESSED
[13:31] {Threei}  - Recession to last several more months; consumer spending is stabilizing
[13:31] {Threei}  - Notes that an economic recovery would reduce risks of deflation; healthy growth to resume in mid 2010
[13:31] {Threei}  - Financial conditions improving on a broader basis
[13:31] {Threei}  lol, :consumer spending is stabilizing"...
[13:31] {Threei}  it very well may be,
[13:31] {Threei}  but let's kill credit cards now,
[13:31] {nemo} yeah, can't go below 0
[13:31] {Threei}  then increase taxes on energy
[13:32] {Threei}  then make cars more expensive
[13:32] {nemo} nice on inri Dino
[13:32] {Threei}  and rise taxes on fuel to make buying them more justified
[13:32] {nemo} Oh jeez, that's funny...itri
[13:32] {dino} ok nemo, around 58.60 if it gets there
[13:32] {Threei}  and let's see what happens to consumer after all that
[13:32] {nemo} Hah, just called you King of the Jews
[13:33] {nemo} In that new credit card bill, they are not reigning in interest rates
[13:34] {dino} nemo s=short, got stopped itri
[13:34] {nemo} oh you went short, missed that
[13:37] {ese} me thinks what happens with drys alot is that the big boys see a stock that they can beat the VWAP alot with.   It's daily 1min seems to look like that alot.    Me thinks that some of them should be WAPPED!
[13:37] {ese} VWAP( volume weighted average price) for those of you that don't know

May 18 2009

Quite a backwards day. Not much worked; two nicely-sized wins on CAT and PALM and a scalp on FAS (on which we really underestimated the strength of the move) were not enough to cover a few stops, so we ended day slightly negative.


Session Time: Mon May 18 00:00:00 2009
