01[09:15] {&Threei} what do discuss really
[09:15] {Les} http://www.thereformedbroker.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/TAPER.png
01[09:15] {&Threei} we keep it steady, and we argue about how we word it
[09:15] {RonS} lol Les...
[09:15] {jdetente} What do Reptilians eat, that's the only question
[09:16] {stevw} g'mornin fellas
01[09:16] {&Threei} why, there is also lively discussion who would win a fisthfight, caveman or astronaut
01[09:16] {&Threei} stev :)
[09:16] {nemo} I'll go with the caveman
01[09:17] {&Threei} then don't forget all-encompassing enigma: do penguins have knees?
[09:17] {dino} good question
01[09:17] {&Threei} that along can keed Fed busy for years
01[09:18] {&Threei} alone
01[09:18] {&Threei} keep
01[09:18] {&Threei} jeez
[09:18] {Will49} gm
01[09:18] {&Threei} will :)
[09:18] {Les} http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-06-18/obama-says-bernanke-fed-term-lasting-longer-than-he-wanted-1-.html
[09:19] {Les} scary message
[09:21] {+cc_9} NUGT cratering premarket, fwiw
01[09:21] {&Threei} no wonder, look at GLD
01[09:21] {&Threei} short gold must be one of those dream swing trades...
[09:21] {Les} looks like dollar readying for a bounce
01[09:22] {&Threei} short around 1400, keep stop above 1500, start covering under 1000
01[09:22] {&Threei} if you have a lot of nerve, be fully out between 800 and 600
[09:22] {jdetente} shorting VXX and various ETFs since the beginning of the year has been great too...
[09:22] {bbobr} gm
01[09:23] {&Threei} bbobr :)
[09:23] {jdetente} those VIX etfs were born to die
[09:23] {cipher} gm
01[09:24] {&Threei} true... time deterioration makes them very short term instruments
01[09:24] {&Threei} cipher :)
[09:24] {Les} lana del ray baby
01[09:25] {&Threei} GDX begs to be shorted on .90 break
[09:26] {Les} its a short trip back to 26'ish
01[09:26] {&Threei} look how frighteningly close GLD is to its April low
01[09:26] {&Threei} for all that huge selloff, such pathetic bounce?
[09:27] {Alexs} gm
[09:27] {Les} yeh one thing learnt from you
01[09:27] {&Threei} ask dino and cipher who specialize in trading capitulation how they feel about a stock that wouldn't bounce rapidly after big selloff
01[09:27] {&Threei} alex :)
[09:28] {Les} if tape ain't showing institutional interest it ain't interesting
[09:28] {Les} no sign of accumulation here
[09:28] {Les} just apathy
01[09:29] {&Threei} OK... if morning volatility doesn't trip us, GDX .90 break is a first trade
[09:29] {dino} cipher, you trading much? haven't seen you posting
01[09:29] {&Threei} Short Setup: GDX .90 break
01[09:29] {&Threei} If holds 28
01[09:29] {&Threei} risky as all opening trades
[09:30] {ese} morning
01[09:30] {&Threei} ese :)
01[09:31] {&Threei} Invalidated
01[09:31] {&Threei} for now
[09:31] {thomcbell} prlb looks like ibd misplaced enthusiasm
01[09:32] {&Threei} Short Setup: GDX .10 break
01[09:32] {&Threei} If holds .15
01[09:32] {&Threei} very tight stop
01[09:32] {&Threei} trying this kangaroo tail
01[09:34] {&Threei} cover half here
01[09:34] {&Threei} 1:1
[09:34] {robbers} Out, beautiful call.
01[09:35] {&Threei} SLW is untradeable by itself but ashows the way for GDX
[09:35] {Les} .93 taken a little
01[09:35] {&Threei} 1/4 more out
01[09:35] {&Threei} let's see it it can break that .90
01[09:35] {&Threei} stop .06
[09:37] {Les} 99 area IWM very interesting for potential breakout
01[09:38] {&Threei} I's really prefer a pullback entry on IWM
01[09:39] {&Threei} these slow creep-up days tend to rinse breakouts
[09:39] {nemo} resistance is R1 on the daily and the weekly R1
01[09:39] {&Threei} but reward pullback entries... which in turn are trickier to find
[09:39] {Les} yeh the daily is firming up, need decent intraday entry if price shapes up accordingly
01[09:39] {&Threei} in short, and if you haven't noticed... I hate slow creep-up days. Might come as a surprise
[09:40] {Les} managed to piss me off yesterday
01[09:40] {&Threei} Short Setup: GLD .60 break hl
01[09:40] {&Threei} we tried Les, we tried
[09:41] {Will49} out GDX tks Vd
01[09:41] {&Threei} If holds .70
01[09:41] {&Threei} 1:2 baby
01[09:41] {&Threei} yw
[09:41] {jdetente} GDX broket through .90. Nice
[09:41] {jdetente} *broke
01[09:41] {&Threei} stop to .01
01[09:42] {&Threei} out on a trail
01[09:42] {&Threei} Invalidated GLD
01[09:43] {&Threei} IWM, watching
[09:44] {Les} SPY holding VWAP IWM lost it.
[09:51] {+cc_9} WLT slowly recovering
[09:51] {+cc_9} new highs 12.60s
[09:52] {+cc_9} flying now
[09:52] {thomcbell} long fio 12.80
[09:55] {Les} GLD drop
01[09:55] {&Threei} Long Setup: IWM .55 break
01[09:55] {&Threei} If holds .45
01[09:58] {&Threei} move stop to under .47
01[09:58] {&Threei} takes too long, let's keep it tight
[09:59] {+cc_9} gold hard tank
01[09:59] {&Threei} it shouldn't be this hard
[09:59] {thomcbell} sold 1/2 fio 12.96 + 0.16
01[10:01] {&Threei} wtg
01[10:01] {&Threei} GLD got away
[10:01] {dino} aegr gap fill
[10:05] {+cc_9} "he has been an outstanding partner" Obama on Bernanke
01[10:05] {&Threei} partner in crime?
01[10:06] {&Threei} http://www.realitytrader.com/vad/Crime%20of%20the%20Century.jpg
[10:06] {Les} you're just jealous
[10:07] {Les} screw IWM
[10:07] {jdetente} IWM worked...
[10:07] {dino} infi
[10:08] {dino} sm s .52
[10:09] {dino} stop infi .82 -.30
[10:10] {nemo} we're in the Bernanke Lull
[10:10] {nemo} gotta' figure they get this over 165 to probe stops
01[10:11] {&Threei} Short Setup: GLD 132 break hl
01[10:11] {&Threei} If holds .10
01[10:13] {&Threei} stop to .06
[10:13] {ese} His policies were certainly responsible for allowing the inflated run up in real estate into 2008 and the subsequent crash
[10:13] {Les} but that made u all richer americans and canadians didn't it?
01[10:13] {&Threei} as were Clintion's
01[10:14] {&Threei} and as Ben's are for this bubble in stocks
[10:14] {ese} and how bout this one: Ex-Bank of America mortgage workers were 'told to lie' :http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2013/06/18/business-bank-of-america-hamp.html
01[10:14] {&Threei} out GLD
[10:15] {ese} to charge home owners extra penalties.....or to make it imposible for them to renew mortagages...........nice
[10:15] {ese} who can you trust these days
[10:16] {Will49} and no accountability anywhere
[10:16] {Will49} a few public hangings would be good
[10:16] {ese} agreed
01[10:16] {&Threei} oh, don't simplify whole housing debacle to banks transgressions please
01[10:16] {&Threei} this tango took 3
[10:16] {jdetente} sounds like disgruntled ex-employees to me.
01[10:16] {&Threei} government, banks and we the people
[10:16] {jdetente} I know someone on the inside there and that's certainly not a corporate policy
[10:17] {ese} as it is....no one in the banking business gets charged with anything as it is....so why not bilk people
01[10:17] {&Threei} ese, why no one got charged for govt policies demanding lending to those who were unqualified?
[10:18] {ese} a" bunch" of disgruntled employees looks like
[10:18] {ese} thats another good question
01[10:18] {&Threei} and why no one got charged for taking a mortgage they couldn't afford while lying in their paperwojr?
01[10:18] {&Threei} as I said, took three to tango
[10:18] {dino} no doc loans backed by fannie and freddie was most of problem
[10:19] {jdetente} sure was
[10:19] {jdetente} couple that with borrowers not being held responsible for understanding what they were signing...
[10:19] {Les} got on the kill GDX train short .72
[10:19] {ese} were they mortgage brokers or mortgage lenders?
[10:19] {ese} Fannie and freddie
[10:20] {jdetente} dang GLD rinse
01[10:20] {&Threei} yeah
[10:20] {Will49} you can't expect the sheeple to uphold regulations...gotta be the professionals
[10:20] {dino} govt run guarantee of loans
[10:20] {dino} fnm, fre
01[10:20] {&Threei} they were mortgage backers
[10:20] {Les} cover half .63
01[10:21] {&Threei} lending to lenders and guaranteeing their mortgages
[10:21] {ese} ahhhhhhh
[10:21] {jdetente} yeah Fannie Freddie guaranteed to buy the loans done by the lenders
[10:21] {Will49} society moving away from rule of law and into a regulation world
01[10:21] {&Threei} mortgage originating somewhere else would end uo in FNM and FRE
[10:21] {Will49} break a regulation...get a slap on the wrist
[10:21] {Will49} if that!
01[10:21] {&Threei} and that guarantee made banks feel safe
[10:21] {Les} DB gld?
[10:21] {ese} gottcha

[10:23] {jdetente} going back to BAC...the biggest issue with that institution is that it is so huge, incompetence is easy to hide. I worked there and the left hand often times did not know what the right was doing.
[10:24] {jdetente} it was what you call a cluster...hehe
[10:24] {RonS} should do it....Taliban says they will open an office in Qatar to seek political solution to Afghanistan war

[10:47] {dino} sdow sm l .50
01[10:48] {&Threei} SLW drop should also push GDX off the cliff
[10:49] {+cc_9} I guess thats no good for me, im long GDX at 27.68
01[10:49] {&Threei} sorry...
[10:50] {+cc_9} im only looking for 27.75-.80
[10:50] {+cc_9} $0.10 looks like asking for a lot today
01[10:50] {&Threei} sure looks this way
[10:51] {+cc_9} sideways for 20mins GDX
01[10:54] {&Threei} so what do you think, goldbugs watch this with horror, or jump up and down singing "oh good we can buy more"?
[10:54] {jdetente} buy more
[10:55] {jdetente} they are convinced
01[10:55] {&Threei} 1:1
01[10:55] {&Threei} "it's manipulation but they won't fool me"
[10:55] {Les} perhaps now the brighter ones realise that it's not gonna happen tomorrow
[10:55] {Les} perhaps not ever
[10:55] {Les} this time I'll use the tape to tell me
[10:56] {Les} no more gurus
01[10:56] {&Threei} "they shake out weak hands but they will pry my gold from my dead cold fingers"

01[11:30] {&Threei} dp... there is no energy in it either wasy

01[11:30] {&Threei} don't force the trade
[11:30] {dptl} i see
01[11:30] {&Threei} it should scream at you, be irresistible
01[11:31] {&Threei} this one, you need to dig deep into its soul to find any spark
[11:31] {+cc_9} GDX, need .60 bid for a nice reversal
[11:32] {dptl} ye...lately they all been laughting at me , not screaming :)

01[11:37] {&Threei} - Heightened volatility is again the order of the day as the FOMC convenes in Washington, DC for a two-day meeting. The DJIA has seen five straight days of triple-digit moves, for a level of volatility not seen since Fall 2011.
[11:37] {+cc_9} ok GDX, lets get a baby bounce here
01[11:38] {&Threei} - Tomorrow's press conference by Fed Chairman Bernanke will be main event of the week, with markets expecting more details on the Fed's taper strategy. Market participants continue to marvel over the near 150-point drop in the DJIA yesterday afternoon after the FT published a preview for the event with the title "Fed likely to signal tapering move
01[11:38] {&Threei} ." Bernanke's future as chairman is also in focus after last night President Obama told Charlie Rose on PBS that Bernanke has stayed on longer than he originally planned and avoided directly answering whether or not he would reappoint Bernanke at the end of his term in Jan 2014.

[12:00] {RonS} lol
[12:00] {Les} http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/bild-906203-426589.html
[12:01] {Will49} We can't screw around with Obummer, he's our biggest customer
[12:01] {Les} Putin looks like an easy man to put inhis place....not
[12:01] {dino} how about him steeling that super bowl ring story
[12:01] {Les} looks like that fist is ready to strike out
[12:01] {Les} strange that dino?
[12:01] {Les} -?
[12:02] {dino} kraft, owner of patriots is saying putin asked to try his ring on, kraft let him, putin puts ring in pocket and walks away w/bodyguards
[12:02] {+cc_9} GDX trying again, new bids
01[12:02] {&Threei} (CY) Cyprus President Anastasiades has asked eurozone leaders for a complete revamp of his country's €10B bailout
[12:02] {+cc_9} needs .56
[12:04] {+cc_9} GDX tough time in the early .50s
[12:05] {+cc_9} needs mid .50s for a clean b/o
01[12:07] {&Threei} Short Setup: FB .50 break
01[12:07] {&Threei} If holds .55
[12:13] {+cc_9} GDX all tease, tiny bounce then back to square 1
[12:13] {+cc_9} i wonder if this thing will even have a single upward move today
[12:13] {+cc_9} afternoon already starting
[12:13] {Will49} knew a girl like that
[12:17] {Les} long tna .07 holding 50 might return to test support and offer 2nd entry
[12:17] {Les} hoping for retest of highs
[12:17] {+cc_9} Gold bear on Bloomberg, not helping the case
[12:18] {Les} trotting out the naysayers can't be good for bears
[12:18] {RonS} out LNCO .65 +.56
[12:18] {+cc_9} GDX an absolute dog
[12:18] {+cc_9} can't catch a bid to save its life
[12:19] {Les} out for the scalp tna looking for retest

01[12:22] {&Threei} eqzaktly
01[12:23] {&Threei} and I insist on this being the best English possible
01[12:23] {&Threei} bestest I'd say
[12:23] {Les} you could write to your local mayor about littering
[12:23] {Will49} snatcherely
[12:24] {Will49} after the Yanks and the Aussies corrupting the Queen's english, we is all she has left :)
[12:25] {+cc_9} GDX slow death, the worst kind
[12:25] {+cc_9} 0.04 off my avg pps then splat
[12:25] {+cc_9} slow slow grind, no momo no bids, no bottom feeders
[12:25] {Les} surprised your not in SSO cc
[12:26] {Les} around these levels
[12:26] {jdetente} hmmm Will. Canadian English what is that if not corruption?
[12:26] {jdetente} an improvement? hehe
[12:27] {Les} not sure you have the right to say Canadian English as seperate vernacular. You guys sound like yanks to mee
01[12:28] {&Threei} why then my keyboard has separate setting for English USA and English Canada
[12:28] {RonS} lol
[12:28] {Will49} jd..it's the French Canadians who mangle their language, we Anglais are pure :)
[12:29] {jdetente} lol
[12:29] {Les} surprised US keyboards aren't Spanish
[12:29] {Will49} won't be long
[12:29] {jdetente} some are
[12:30] {+cc_9} GDX @ "double bottom" range, T&S filled with sells
[12:30] {Les} lost my position on TNA and here comes retest of high
[12:30] {RonS} was in Osaka once...saw a lanky white guy operating door to night club...said: g'day mate...guy says don't call me a fricking Aussie, "ahm from Alabama"...
[12:31] {jdetente} hahahaha
[12:31] {Les} watch GLD cc
[12:32] {+cc_9} Les, GLD / SLV stable, GDX slow death, 1 penny downtick at a time
[12:32] {+cc_9} GLD holding up, way off lows
[12:32] {Les} but GLD near VWAP test at .10
[12:32] {+cc_9} GDX no follow through
[12:32] {Les} .13 or thereabouts
[12:32] {Les} if GlD fails here...
[12:32] {Les} me short GDX
[12:33] {+cc_9} GDX any print of LOD could get nasty triggering major stops
[12:33] {Les} .44
[12:33] {Les} need GLD to fail for it tow work
[12:33] {+cc_9} GDX that slight bounce @ 12:00PM was my exit level, but $0.04 shy, unreal
[12:34] {Les} thought about going long but see no reason certainly no enthusiasm
[12:34] {Les} GLD going for the resistance
[12:34] {+cc_9} GLD needs 132.20 break Les
[12:35] {Les} do you see order flow cc?
[12:35] {RonS} 5 min ago: BREAKING: Icahn proposes Dell start offer for 1.1 billion share at $14 per share
01[12:35] {&Threei} ese, look dcc
[12:35] {+cc_9} Les, on which GLD or GDX ?
[12:36] {dino} hum dee dum, nothing hitting my scaners
[12:36] {Les} all stocks cc
01[12:36] {&Threei} (CY) Cyprus President Anastasiades has asked eurozone leaders for a complete revamp of his country's €10B bailout - FT- Claims Cyprus may not be able to fulfill the terms of the rescue because it has harmed the country's economy and banking system even more than expected. - Requested that EU leaders to unwind the restructuring and partial merger of its two largest banks. -
01[12:36] {&Threei} what do you mean by that les?
[12:36] {+cc_9} Les, GLD trying
[12:37] {+cc_9} just got over resistance
01[12:37] {&Threei} order flow?
[12:37] {Les} does his job allow him to see all the traders like ourselves buying and selling?
[12:37] {+cc_9} Les, GLD @ 132.20, still reversing, but GDX no follow through
[12:38] {Les} GDX stopped -.02 will wait and see
01[12:38] {&Threei} you think we make any difference in stocks like this?? :)
01[12:38] {&Threei} mosquito on elwephant's back
[12:38] {Les} no, but cc keeps providing very precise targets
[12:38] {Les} wondering if he sees stops like market makers
[12:39] {+cc_9} GDX all needs is .60 bid for reversal, that's key
[12:39] {+cc_9} GLD right now sitting @ breakout pps 132.20 . needs to clear or we see more stalling
01[12:39] {&Threei} again... how orders as minuscule as ours could provide any meaningul information?
[12:39] {Les} not talking about our room
[12:39] {+cc_9} order flow is a myth imo, 80%+ is algo, and they do not give any indication what so ever
[12:39] {Les} but ALL CLIENTS
01[12:40] {&Threei} ???
[12:40] {+cc_9} im only following price action
[12:40] {Les} k
01[12:40] {&Threei} someone working at one brokerage seeing orders from others?
[12:40] {+cc_9} Les, I can track the trades of 200+ traders, but its meaningless
01[12:40] {&Threei} Les... tin hat is in order
[12:40] {Les} is that all?
[12:40] {+cc_9} algos and big desks are in control, all the time, at all time
[12:40] {jdetente} http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2274/2404325409_5543da1791.jpg
[12:40] {jdetente} that you Les?
[12:40] {Les} oh ok, yeh well 200 ain't gonna shake the earth
[12:41] {Les} I'm the cat
[12:42] {+cc_9} GLD, like I said key was 132.20, got there and now fade
[12:42] {Les} GLD arguably fails VWAP here, but I'll await new low for GDX unless Vad wants aggressive entry
[12:42] {Les} lunch time
01[12:43] {&Threei} ese, look dcc pls
[12:43] {+cc_9} Les, GLD another 132.20 attempt
01[12:43] {&Threei} SLW, last piece out on a trail
[12:43] {+cc_9} needs to hold that bid so GDX can catch some traction
[12:44] {Les} yeh watching its bounce potential GLD
[12:45] {+cc_9} GDX early .50 on bid, needs mid and should be good
[12:45] {+cc_9} I start selling .60
[12:45] {+cc_9} baby sitting this POS all day, no fun
[12:46] {+cc_9} Les, GLD draw a line @ 132.20, you will see that it matches pps from 10:04AM
[12:46] {+cc_9} that's the wall still
[12:46] {Les} potential dt in spy here
[12:47] {Les} GLD failing that test
[12:48] {Les} IWM taking the lead again
[12:49] {+cc_9} Les, yes, but you see its tightening
[12:49] {+cc_9} trying from 12:36PM
[12:50] {+cc_9} next test of 132.20 it goes
[12:50] {+cc_9} closing in
[12:50] {Les} yeh yeh not making any move here but want to see GLD fail, followed by renewed miner selling
[12:50] {Les} not interested in long
[12:50] {+cc_9} Once we break clear this 132.20, GDX should give us some mid .50s at last.
[12:50] {+cc_9} Here we go, GLD
[12:54] {+cc_9} hugging that 132.20 wall, needs nice and clean push
[12:54] {jdetente} FB stop

01[13:58] {&Threei} what it was you were pre-occupied with?
01[13:59] {&Threei} or GDX for that matter, that one happened near the open
01[13:59] {&Threei} you managed to get yourself in some other trade even before that?
[13:59] {dptl} yeah...looked at other stuff...(that didt work after all)
01[14:00] {&Threei} [09:32] {@Alert} Threei Short Setup: GDX .10 break

01[14:00] {&Threei} and you already were trying to do something other than waiting for an alert
01[14:01] {&Threei} I have just one question I weant to you to think about
[14:01] {dptl} well ...not really....my firs trade was at 9:50
01[14:01] {&Threei} are you in control of your own actions or someone else?

[14:08] {dptl} or exorcist lol
01[14:09] {&Threei} can you get back to what once helped you restore confidence, namely: following room setups only?
[14:09] {dino} relax dp, just stop banging your head against the wall
[14:09] {+cc_9} GDX @ lows, what a dog
01[14:09] {&Threei} I've no ideas what you are confused about, you seem to confuse yourself
[14:09] {dino} inactivity curse
01[14:10] {&Threei} you start playing room setups only, have a few great days, start feeling cocky and start trading everything in sight
[14:10] {dino} you need to know how to it on your hands so you don't btrade just to trade
01[14:11] {&Threei} "when we achieve success we tend to stop doing what made us successful in a first place"
01[14:11] {&Threei} and to add: this summer seesaw is the worst possible time to push this hard
[14:21] {Les} setup a paper screen and save the badgering from Vad. When you're consistently profitable then take it live dp
[14:22] {Les} When we plunge I do well on my own
[14:22] {Les} but this topping shit smacks me silly
[14:22] {Les} grind, indecision, whatever it is
[14:22] {Les} this market is doing here
[14:23] {dptl} out gdx
[14:24] {Les} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iszwuX1AK6A
[14:24] {Alexs} what stop on GDX Vad?
01[14:25] {&Threei} standard, .50
[14:25] {Alexs} ty
[14:25] {Les} Wall St bad boys again
[14:26] {+cc_9} GDX : eyes on ABX / GG / NEM
[14:26] {+cc_9} no follow through, just dead cat from LOD
[14:26] {Les} GLD might give u want u want here cc
[14:27] {Les} hoping its not the case
[14:28] {jdetente} you're still long GDX cc?
01[14:29] {&Threei} GLD, SLW, ABX drop
[14:29] {Les} die GLD
01[14:29] {&Threei} GDX sits right on day low
01[14:29] {&Threei} and makes new one
[14:29] {Les} added a little
01[14:29] {&Threei} if this is not a good short setup, I don't know what is
[14:30] {dptl} and i got out.....speechless
[14:30] {jdetente} why did you make your own stop DP?
06[14:31] * Les slaps dptl around a bit with a large trout
[14:31] {Les} for good measure
[14:31] {Les} shit why didn't i short gld too
01[14:32] {&Threei} Les... was there any setup for shorting?
01[14:32] {&Threei} I don't see any
[14:33] {Les} I'm a vwap fly vad
[14:33] {Les} but u r right
[14:33] {Les} swift drop doesn't cut the jib
01[14:34] {&Threei} just want to remind, not every move can be exploited
01[14:34] {&Threei} some can be read, some can't
[14:34] {Les} yeh slowly learning to seperate opinion on market move and setup to safely trade it
01[14:34] {&Threei} yup... piece by piece, puzzle clicks together
01[14:35] {&Threei} you can see all around us what happens to those who trade on opinions
01[14:36] {&Threei} saw a collection of quotes from each and every thinkable source explaining why gold must go up from here?
[14:36] {jdetente} opinions are like...well you know the rest
01[14:36] {&Threei} yeah
[14:36] {Les} not really jd
[14:36] {Les} Peter Brandt coined it well
[14:36] {Les} will look for the post
[14:36] {jdetente} do I need to spell it out
[14:36] {Les} no, but I can see when IWM is potentially topping out
[14:37] {Les} but too many times I've been stopped by .10 for lack of solid setup
[14:37] {Les} and then it drops
01[14:37] {&Threei} and the kicker is, when gold drop to 1K and under, think they'll get it?
01[14:37] {&Threei} nope, they will write it off as manipulation
[14:37] {Les} yeh Jesse still going on about it
01[14:37] {&Threei} and sinclair
[14:37] {Les} destroying many a little guy inthe process
01[14:37] {&Threei} and all gold sites
[14:38] {Les} dunno bout other gurus switched off to it
01[14:38] {&Threei} well, sinclair called gold 50,000 recently
01[14:38] {&Threei} not 5
01[14:38] {&Threei} 50
[14:38] {Les} act of god stuff
01[14:38] {&Threei} K
01[14:38] {&Threei} per ounce
01[14:38] {&Threei} sigh
[14:38] {Les} yeh the world will end
01[14:39] {&Threei} "central banks hate gold"
[14:39] {Les} just looking at preview of Zombie movie with brad pitt
01[14:39] {&Threei} sure, that's why they are the biggest holders of it
[14:39] {Les} end of times stuff seems to be the rage
[14:39] {jdetente} everyone loves zombie
[14:39] {jdetente} s
[14:39] {Les} speaks of an anguish jd
[14:39] {jdetente} like gold
[14:40] {Les} curious as to it as a social phenomen
01[14:40] {&Threei} I just want nemo to be in Victoria when zombie apocalypse comes
[14:40] {jdetente} yeah Les I don't get the zombie fascination
01[14:40] {&Threei} 1:1 GDX
[14:40] {Les} .31 half cover
01[14:41] {&Threei} play by the book, stop to .41
01[14:41] {&Threei} and let's see if we can get some good old panic
01[14:41] {&Threei} nemo, you here?
[14:41] {Les} gld presents itself here
01[14:42] {&Threei} jd... but do you get vampire vraze? I mean Buffy was all the rage :)
01[14:42] {&Threei} craze too
01[14:43] {&Threei} Mother claims self-defense for trying to kill 3-month-old
01[14:43] {&Threei} sounds about right... very plausible
[14:44] {jdetente} good 'ol Buffy
[14:44] {dino} buffy was hot!
01[14:44] {&Threei} there... you just secured dino as your best friend
01[14:44] {&Threei} there!! :)
[14:44] {+cc_9} GDX disaster trade for me today on long side
[14:44] {dino} she was awesome in cruel intentions
[14:44] {+cc_9} did not think it would keep flushing...but that;s what happens when people dump gold and gold miners have no biz left
01[14:45] {&Threei} I believe many of them will be out if business before it's over, cc
01[14:45] {&Threei} it will get much much worse for them before it gets any better
[14:45] {+cc_9} ABX GG NEM clobbered
01[14:46] {&Threei} so, you thought that gumgate story was werid?
01[14:46] {&Threei} TACOMA, Wash. — A Puyallup woman was arraigned Monday in Pierce County superior court for allegedly trying to kill her 3-month-old baby because she believed the baby was trying to kill her.
[14:47] {jdetente} the woman was probably using bath salts or some other hallucinogen
01[14:48] {&Threei} Will, who would have thought Royasl BC Museum had sense of humor:
01[14:48] {&Threei} https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BNDTq-XCQAEy_TA.jpg:large
[14:49] {Will49} good one, eh?
[14:49] {RonS} (or be one hot piece of tail)
[14:49] {Will49} can't take dp in there :)
01[14:49] {&Threei} lol
[14:50] {dptl} lol
[14:50] {Will49} good one ron
01[14:55] {&Threei} .30 forms next trigger for GDX
01[14:55] {&Threei} nice consolidation
[14:56] {+cc_9} no money flow in gold miners, absolutely none
01[14:56] {&Threei} SLW probs day low
01[14:56] {&Threei} nope
01[14:56] {&Threei} ABX looks a tad better but downticks as well
01[14:56] {&Threei} overall, I find SALW a better leader for GDX
01[14:56] {&Threei} SLW
[14:57] {jdetente} shorting GDX...have to love it
01[14:57] {&Threei} my Fur Boots song :)
[14:57] {jdetente} warms the cockles of my heart
01[14:57] {&Threei} lol
01[14:58] {&Threei} gold losing April lows an d triggering next cascade move is what promises to make our summer fun
01[14:59] {&Threei} look how close it is...
01[14:59] {&Threei} within spitting distance
[14:59] {jdetente} sure is
01[15:00] {&Threei} New car sales across Europe fall to lowest levels in two decades
01[15:01] {&Threei} come on Les, be a good sport... buy maseratti or something
[15:01] {Les} come on Vad, be a good sport... make my year in GDX
01[15:01] {&Threei} easy...
01[15:01] {&Threei} short gold
[15:02] {Les} red flag
01[15:02] {&Threei} cover anywhere between 1000 and 600 in portions
01[15:02] {&Threei} retire
01[15:02] {&Threei} make it your Paulson trade
[15:02] {Les} checking the setup
01[15:03] {&Threei} in two senses... a) repeat his short housing trade that made him famous
[15:03] {jdetente} shorting gold long term is tempting
01[15:03] {&Threei} and b) go against him on his long gold which will destroy him
[15:03] {Les} ok, new setup with gold futures close below 1360 would get that ball rolling
[15:03] {Les} stop above 1400
01[15:03] {&Threei} I liked short around 1400 the most
01[15:04] {&Threei} into bounce
[15:04] {Les} yeh yeh
[15:04] {Les} bit late now
01[15:04] {&Threei} probably
[15:04] {Les} break below 1360, with stop above the high of the bounce tight r/r
[15:05] {Les} bounce in hourly time frame
[15:05] {Les} http://www.finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=GC&p=h1
01[15:05] {&Threei} I loved one argument suggested by goldbugs recently,
01[15:06] {&Threei} referring to huge denand in chinca where people bought physical gold in droves, about 300 mln buyers
01[15:06] {&Threei} If I ever saw the best bearish argument, this must be it!
01[15:06] {&Threei} 300 mln winners?
01[15:06] {&Threei} yeah, that's how market works
[15:06] {Les} TZA got away
01[15:07] {&Threei} (that was sarcasm)
[15:07] {Les} lol
[15:07] {+cc_9} Miners trying a little here last hour
[15:08] {Les} wanted to suggest possible cultural attachment to gold the chinese have, but so many variables in China it defies simple answer
01[15:09] {&Threei} oh btw
01[15:10] {&Threei} they bought it as a result of govt action, big discount on spot prices
[15:10] {Les} lol
01[15:10] {&Threei} yup, caring and gentle govt decided to make 300 mln billionares
[15:10] {Les} must be a good thing
[15:11] {jdetente} jeez
01[15:11] {&Threei} how can anyone consider this a bullish development is beyond me
[15:11] {jdetente} benevolent
01[15:11] {&Threei} but hey, it's those dame people who say inflation is good for gold price, and deflation is... guess what? yes, good for gold price
01[15:11] {&Threei} same
[15:21] {Les} http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324021104578552930613288170?mg=reno64-wsj.html?dsk=y
