[05:45] {hawkfan4} morning bruce
[05:45] {bruce} do you need to reset laser charts every morning vad?
[05:45] {Threei} no why?
[05:45] {bruce} I keep a few small thmbnail charts always open
[05:45] {bruce} each morning about half never open
[05:46] {bruce} I need to type in new stock symbol to get them to display anything
[05:46] {Threei} did you save the layout after you made changes?
[05:46] {bruce} yes
[05:46] {Threei} wait... never opens as in don't show anything, remaining blank? or window itself doesn't appear?
[05:46] {bruce} not a big deal
[05:46] {bruce} just a nuisance
[05:47] {bruce} well for example
[05:47] {bruce} one chart is of rimm
[05:47] {bruce} it says rimm
[05:47] {cosmo} ADLS pre mkt high = 2.95 ...so far
[05:47] {bruce} but nothing is showing
[05:47] {bruce} and there is an x in left corner
[05:48] {Threei} X is a sign that chart is not working, yes
[05:48] {bruce} if I type ibm that stock comes up ok
[05:48] {bruce} then I can type rimm again and it will be ok
[05:48] {Threei} but why it happens for you and not for me... no idea
[05:48] {bruce} I'm using vista

[06:09] {Threei} my take on premarket trading:
[06:10] {Threei} it takes something very very clear or extraordinary to make me do it
[06:11] {Threei} routine opportinities will be presented all over during normal market hours, why would I want to chase them in more risky premarket environment
[06:11] {bruce} k - same

[06:54] {Threei} ese is hot
[06:54] {Threei} if a quote is not updating, a market center can declare self-help, and must notify the destination(s) of its order flow that a self-help situation exists. In such a situation, NASDAQ will turn off its router to the market center (as it has in the past). What is new is the explicit declaration of a self-help situation.

[08:04] {Threei} I don't want to overdrill it... but review the calls
[08:04] {Threei} you skipped all winning ones, and fairly decent size of wins,
[08:04] {Threei} and picked two small stops
[08:05] {bruce} yes - missed winners
[08:06] {bruce} typical
[08:06] {Threei} the day you know why you do it, or learn how to overcome this is the day tyour trading turns around
[08:07] {bruce} it wan't intentional vad
[08:07] {bruce} busy looking for trades and look at this screen intermittently
[08:07] {Threei} of course not
[08:08] {Threei} but when it happens so often that you label it as typical
[08:08] {Threei} it's not an accident
[08:08] {bruce} it is typical
[08:08] {Threei} it's a pattern
[08:08] {bruce} you've seen it
[08:08] {bruce} don't see how that canhappen over and over
[08:08] {Threei} I have

[08:48] {dino} we missed that, should've took a 100 shares short

[08:53] {bruce} fwiw hon has really nice tend too - but who knows where it will reverse - and its nyse
[08:57] {bruce} do you find most of your winning trades tend to work out right away dino?
[08:59] {dino} no, my entries usually suck
[08:59] {dino} expect to be wrong...as i usually lose a dime on entry
[08:59] {bruce} not true - saw youcatch almost exact bottom or top multiple times

[11:01] {Threei} in FMCN, stop just under .50
[11:01] {Threei} small of course
[11:04] {Threei} bids started chasing up
[11:05] {Threei} come on, move
[11:05] {Threei} nope
[11:06] {Threei} those were all real bids, and got sold into
[11:08] {Threei} can't decide if it's worth a second try
[11:17] {Raven} back ... "bidded" ... ohmygod
[11:18] {bruce} is ohmygod a word raven?
[11:18] {Raven} you bet
[11:18] {bruce} k
[11:18] {bruce} adding it to vacab learned here
[11:18] {Raven} yes
[11:21] {Threei} bidded is just as good as spreaded
[11:21] {Threei} or selled
[11:21] {Threei} or striked
[11:22] {Raven} {}
[11:22] {Raven} sheesh
[11:22] {Threei} {--- hiding
[11:22] {Threei} ummm... I should say "hided"
[11:22] {Raven} that does it
[11:22] * Raven slaps Threei around a bit with a large trout
[11:22] {Threei} uh oh
[11:22] {Threei} hided not too well I see
[11:22] * Raven slaps dino around a bit with a large trout
[11:23] * Raven and Chaeron too
[11:24] * Raven kicks magoo out of his tree stand
[11:25] {bruce} fmcn tricky ba@ta@d
[11:25] {bruce} new low then higher low confirmation of trend reversal
[11:27] {dino} lol\
[11:33] {bruce} dino - you would have given fmcn about 20c from new low for your stop if had traded it as reversal?
[11:39] {dino} y
[11:39] {dino} never hit me i was at 54.05
[11:39] {Threei} raven hit you
[11:39] {Threei} doesa it count?
[11:40] {Threei} I mean he hitted you
[11:40] {Threei} gosh, one day Raven is going to take a trip to Victoria just to suffocate me
[11:41] {bruce} ah - you mean your long entry is at .05 or your stop?
[11:41] {dino} long entry, stop was .69\
[11:41] {bruce} k - got you
[11:41] {dino} figured .00 would hold
[11:41] {dino} not trading it now tho
[11:42] {Raven} lol
[11:42] {bruce} looks like you read it right - doesn't seem to be done dumping yet
[11:42] {dino} can't figure out what this mkt wants today
[11:42] {Raven} your $$
[11:42] {bruce} lol
[11:42] {bruce} raven nailed it
[11:42] {Threei} sure... but why "today"?
[11:43] {Raven} because it is snowing ?
[11:43] {Threei} maybe I am paranoid... but it seems to me it always wants mine
[11:43] {Threei} rarely gets it though
[11:43] {Raven} heh
[11:43] {bruce} lol - got to learn to share vad
[11:43] {Threei} my streak continues so far, no single l,osing day in Nov
[11:44] {Raven} nice
[11:44] {Threei} I shared my fair share in 1996-1998 bruce
[11:44] {bruce} great
[11:44] {Threei} enough is enough
[11:44] {bruce} feel same
[11:44] {Threei} since then sharing goes one way
[11:44] {bruce} done done done w sharing
[11:51] {dino} bidu -24
[11:52] {Threei} -26 you mean
[11:53] {dino} lol
[12:00] {dino} rimm back to 100
[12:09] {Threei} getting tempted by RIMM
[12:09] {dino} same thinking overnight
[12:09] {dino} same w/bidu small
[12:11] {Threei} in for a scalp
[12:11] {Threei} .28
[12:12] {Threei} happily out
[12:12] {Threei} .65
[12:15] {Threei} sigh
[12:15] {Threei} do I ever grow up
[12:17] {bruce} why would you want to vad?
[12:17] {Threei} I wanna be like dino
[12:17] {bruce} would make you an "old fart" as the kids say
[12:17] {bruce} lol
[12:17] {Threei} ummm
[12:17] {Threei} am afraid I am there already, lol
[12:18] {dino} dino is younger than vad
[12:18] {bruce} just get yourself one of those funny circus mirrors
[12:18] {Threei} dino gets bigger moves
[12:18] {bruce} lucky you dino
[12:18] {bruce} youth
[12:18] {dino} missed both, my kids distracted me
[12:18] {bruce} \good lucks
[12:18] {bruce} and good lucks in the markets
[12:18] {bruce} what more could you ask for?
[12:19] {bruce} lol
[12:20] {dino} bidu up 6
[12:22] {bruce} yes -i like dinos plays too- like the larger moves
[12:24] {Threei} don't take my blabbing too seriuosly bruce
[12:24] {Threei} what I do works for me for many years
[12:24] {Threei} indivudual personalitytraits form the way of trading
[12:24] {dino} you have to find your own style bruce.
[12:24] {bruce} understood
[12:24] {Threei} and I am a bit too old to change my personality
[12:25] {Threei} entire process of learning to trade is nothing more than process of learning what you are
[12:26] {Threei} and how to transfer this knowledge into what youi do
[12:26] {dptl} yep...i am still trying to figure that out
[12:26] {bruce} me too
[12:26] {bruce} does shallow count?
[12:27] {Threei} that would be me
[12:27] {dino} lol
[12:27] {Threei} so yes it doesa
[12:27] {bruce} damn - hoped not
[12:27] {Threei} tree good, fire bad
[12:27] {Threei} this deep wisdom is enough to trade correctly
[12:28] {Threei} profit good, loss bad - there, try to beat this
[12:28] {bruce} lol
[12:28] {Threei} now, the real shocker bruce:
[12:28] {bruce} possible reversal setup cmi dino
[12:28] {Threei} if you think the right way to trade is much different from what I just said, you are mistaken
[12:29] {Threei} it's just that it takes a lot of complications to arrive at this simplicity
[12:29] {Threei} but when things click for you, you find out that this is really that simple
[12:29] {bruce} well - starting to think I'm just cursed
[12:30] {bruce} would have quit long ago if had any brains
[12:30] {Threei} there is a good reason why dino repeats all the time "keep it simple"
[12:30] {Threei} noone is cursed
[12:30] {Threei} you are looking in a wrong place
[12:31] {Threei} and if I thought like that, I would have quit somewhere in a course of my first two years
[12:31] {Threei} what a shame that would be
[12:31] {Threei} RIMM ready again
[12:31] {bruce} you haven't noticed my knack for jinxing your own callsw?
[12:32] {Threei} nope
[12:32] {Threei} you just pick out of them
[12:32] {Threei} some work some don't
[12:32] {Threei} normal for me
[12:32] {Threei} most work as you can see easily if you go over log
[12:34] {Threei} but when you try to pick only working ones you ruin the very core of the approach
[12:34] {dino} right
[12:34] {dino} 'cause you mess w/the system
[12:34] {dino} crrc
[12:34] {bruce} I don't do that though
[12:34] {Threei} yep, tryying to beat the odds
[12:34] {Threei} no?
[12:35] {bruce} laptop is not in direct view
[12:35] {Threei} each day you follow several losing ones while skipping several winning ones
[12:35] {bruce} so sometimesw I don't see trade till after it fires
[12:35] {dino} thin
[12:35] {dino} ccrc i mean
[12:35] {Threei} didn't think you meant me
[12:35] {Threei} 'cause am not
[12:36] {Threei} but am trying
[12:36] {Threei} diet... exericise...
[12:41] {Raven} lol
[12:43] {Threei} tell me you got RIMM near 101 dino
[12:44] {dino} cmi l hl .75
[12:44] {Threei} 'cause I did... but being putz I am sold 101.65
[12:44] {dino} stop lod
[12:46] {dino} no
[12:46] {dino} cmi instead
[12:46] {Threei} :(
[12:46] {Threei} you would have held to 103
[12:46] {Threei} unlike shmuck me
[12:46] * Threei slaps dptl around a bit with a large trout
[12:46] {Threei} there... I feel better now
[12:47] {dptl} i would...lol
[12:47] {Threei} lol
[12:48] {Threei} underexploited RIMM today for some reason
[12:48] {Threei} just 3 trades
[12:48] {bruce} cmi w 113 breakand 112.50 stop dino?
[12:49] {dino} y
[12:49] {bruce} k
[12:49] {bruce} maybe i'm learning
[12:53] {Threei} argh
[12:53] {Threei} missed RIMM on dive under 102
[12:53] {Threei} wanted last scalp for the day
[12:54] {bruce} since when you starte to play stuff like rimm vad?
[12:55] {Threei} when it became readable
[12:55] {Threei} it stops I quit
[12:55] {Threei} I don't really have any preferences for stocks, I go where activity and readability is
[12:55] {Threei} and risk control within my tolerance of course
[12:56] {Threei} never could control DRYS for instance, never playing it
[12:56] {Threei} same for GOOG
[12:56] {Threei} very rarely BIDU
[12:56] {Threei} LULU was readable for a while then stopped
[12:56] {dino} frpt out flat
[12:57] {Threei} RIMM is great player these days, I am close to 80% on it
[12:57] {Threei} AAPL, AMZN same thing - sometimes can get a read on them, more often not
[12:57] {bruce} k
[12:58] {Threei} when there are no easy momo stocks, I just surf over all the usual suspects
[12:58] {Threei} if one of them shows good read, I founf my bread and butter for the time being
[12:59] {dino} cmi out .73-.02
[13:00] {Threei} ok guys, thank you
[13:00] {Threei} have a great evcening
[13:00] {Threei} see you tomorrow
[13:00] {bruce} wtg dino
[13:00] {bruce} thought you would get stopped
[13:00] {dino} had .50, but f'ck'd up
[13:00] {dino} down day, hope i didn't hurt anyone
[13:01] {bruce} it dropped below .5
[13:01] {Threei} you hurt my faith in humanity dino
[13:01] {bruce} worked ok to hold and get out at be
[13:01] {dino} i was in at .75, see above
[13:01] {bruce} yes
[13:01] {bruce} good exit
[13:02] {dino} 70$+ stocks i use about .50 on the stops
[13:02] {bruce} k
[13:02] {bruce} was thinking same
[13:02] {bruce} still pretty tight for those moves
[13:02] {bruce} they go tht fqar in 1 min candle
[13:03] {bruce} 6 down days in row for me
[13:03] {bruce} see you guys in am
[13:03] {dino} later bruce

[09:25] {dino} bruce stop it itm, so you get something, if you sare still long
[09:25] {dino} ok
[09:26] {bruce} k see your pooint about bigger sops dino
[09:27] {bruce} would think way to go is to set hard stop - fairly wide - but we willing to exit trade before stop is hit if trade gives sign not likelyu to work using your style
[09:29] {dino} y, you get a feel after awhile, but also, when up .40, move stop so you lock in at least half of the .40, don't give it all back
[09:29] {bruce} yes - no point letting profits slip away
[09:29] {dino} give that man a prize

[05:25] {bruce} vadster
[05:26] {bruce} more must have games for kids
[05:26] {bruce} that'll be sure winner
[05:29] {Threei} I guess we know now why DIVX continued climbing last few days
[05:39] {bruce} lol
[05:39] {bruce} setting up my "if I were smarter chart this am vad
[05:42] {Threei} just don't tell me I need to re-read that book please
[05:43] {Threei} I siccessfully forget everything I wrote in 5 min after finishing it... very convinient
[05:43] {bruce} lol
[05:43] {bruce} my first entry
[05:43] {bruce} If I were smarter I'd stop trading"
[05:43] {Threei} I'll have to disagree
[05:44] {bruce} lol
[05:44] {bruce} not making that entry
[05:44] {Threei} If I were smarter I'd stop losing is my version :)
[05:44] {Threei} on serious note, do you see the usefulness of what you read?
[05:44] {bruce} going to set up trade log to for individual trades
[05:44] {bruce} already do the daily results type tracking
[05:45] {bruce} its a good summary of key points vad
[05:45] {Threei} oh, ity's more than summary
[05:46] {bruce} might be if I can figure out which trades work and which don't better I can improve results
[05:46] {Threei} it's the logic behind building your trading approach which allows you to align all the elements of it
[05:46] {bruce} I could really realtae to bo yoder
[05:47] {bruce} death by a thousand cuts
[05:47] {bruce} but hat only happened to him for a month
[05:47] {bruce} so far this month- I have exactly 20 wins
[05:48] {bruce} 20 losses
[05:48] {bruce} \and they are within 50 c of each other on average
[05:48] {Threei} how doesa it relate to last month?
[05:48] {bruce} not exactly winning formula\
[05:48] {Threei} is it improvement or not?
[05:48] {bruce} no change - those are typical vad
[05:49] {bruce} with small variation
[05:49] {bruce} win/ loss close together
[05:49] {Threei} you mean last month had the same ratio?
[05:49] {Threei} then no changes were incorporated, and you continue doing same thing
[05:49] {Threei} which hasn't proved to be successful
[05:50] {Threei} but you have all the recipes for analisys within those results
[05:51] {Threei} can you pipoint the difference between winners and losers?
[05:51] {Threei} what kind of trades were more of a winners and what more of losers?
[05:52] {bruce} win lose is worse than last month
[05:52] {Threei} nail it, and you know what to expand on and what to cut on
[05:52] {bruce} last month 101 wins and 84 losses
[05:52] {bruce} but lost overall\
[05:52] {Threei} bruce... without those analysis you just roll a dice
[05:52] {bruce} took a min to calculate cause I track weekly
[05:53] {Threei} with such win/loss ratio I would sure have had a profitable month
[05:53] {bruce} I do a lot of diferent kinds of trades
[05:54] {Threei} and?
[05:54] {Threei} among those some are prone to work better than others
[05:55] {Threei} you need to start weeding out process
[05:57] {bruce} I don't have data on diferent trades types vad
[05:58] {bruce} will start to collect
[05:58] {bruce} for example
[05:58] {bruce} a dino type reversal will obviousl y be very dif than a vad style break
[05:58] {bruce} going to strat tracking trades by type to see what works\
[05:59] {bruce} cant keep doing what I ma thats for sure
[05:59] {dptl} good morning all

[07:29] {bruce} fear of dentist will
[07:29] {Threei} {BIOS} when I trade at 10, the joke will be on you
[07:30] {Threei} US ENERGY SEC BODMAN: LOW CRUDE INVENTORIES ARE PUSHING UP THE PRICE OF OIL

[07:31] {dino} bidz
[07:33] {Threei} and here comes the crown:
[07:33] {Threei} QATARI OIL MINISTER: OPEC CAN NOT INCREASE SUPPLY, BECAUSE THERE IS NO DEMAND TO MEET IT
[07:34] {Threei} me so confused
[07:34] {bruce} thgats cause al gore doesn't drive his suv any more
[07:34] {dino} nsit bstop to .14
[07:34] {Threei} buyers say they have low inventory and big demand... suppliers say we won't supply more because tyou don't demand it...

[07:42] {Threei} US ENERGY SEC BODMAN: US ECONOMY RESILIENCE TO HIGH OIL PRICES HAS BEEN EXTRAORDINARY
[07:43] {Threei} what is it, message to OPEC "we can take what you can dish out"?
[07:43] {bruce} stop moved to .74 on balance
[07:43] {Threei} .69 for me
[07:44] {bruce} k - maybe setting it too tight
[07:44] {Threei} not necessary
[07:44] {Threei} both are valid
[07:44] {bruce} als always had a driver vad
[07:44] {Threei} it's more of personal choice
[07:45] {bruce} k - I like to keep them prety tight
[07:45] {bruce} need to get bigger moves though
[07:46] {bruce} figured that out from your comments this am
[07:46] {Threei} don't rush to conclusions until you run the whole process of troublesahooting
[07:46] {Threei} it's not always that obvious
[07:47] {bruce} k
[07:47] {Threei} build youir next step when you are done with whole book, I have suspicion you start changing things as you go
[07:48] {bruce} me?
[07:48] {bruce} change things as I go?
[07:48] {Threei} 'If I were smarter" method is in psychology part, not in troubleshooting part
[07:48] {bruce} sheesh
[07:48] {bruce} ofcourse I do
[07:49] {bruce} just scanned for stuff to use right away
[07:49] {Threei} US ENERGY SEC BODMAN: US ECONOMY RESILIENCE TO HIGH OIL PRICES HAS BEEN EXTRAORDINARY - WIRE HEADLINE
[07:49] {Threei} - says too early to tell oil price's economic impact
[07:50] {dino} nafc hl s .39, stop .68
[07:53] {bruce} thanks dino
[07:54] {bruce} appreciate stop post with entry
[07:56] {dino} np, i'll try to remember
[07:57] {bruce} I would have set about .57
[07:57] {bruce} and thats probably not enough
[07:58] {dino} rinses w/kill you
[07:58] {bruce} iNED TO LEARN TO GET COMFORTABLE W WIDER STOPS W YOUR STYLE OF TRADES
[07:59] {bruce} oopp
[07:59] {bruce} sorry about caps
[07:59] {dino} i understand, problem w/my type is they get gappy
[07:59] {bruce} can see that
[07:59] {bruce} smaller shares
[07:59] {dino} yes
[07:59] {bruce} bigger stops
[08:00] {bruce} and big moves so wins justify risk
[08:01] {dino} i'll crack you up. a year ago my standard size was 1,000, since i changed to 500 and widened stop, i do much better
[08:02] {bruce} k
[08:02] {bruce} would imagine you had some pretty nasty drawdowns
[08:02] {dino} indeed, havard education i call it
[08:03] {dino} then i realized if i would stop being stupid, i could make some money
[08:04] {bruce} how did you realize larger stops were oing to work for you?
[08:05] {dino} reviewed my trades, lots more would've worked if i could've held on. so wider and smaller was the key. not to mention, much more relaxing way to trade
[08:06] {Threei} bruce... what dino descrobes is exactly the process of troubleshooting in the book you keep in hands
[08:06] {Threei} let me reiterate the idea of reading it thoroughly before you start apply changes
[08:07] {bruce} thanks dino
[08:07] {bruce} will do vad
[08:08] {dino} anytime, good luck
[08:13] {bruce} adjust nafc stop here dino?
[08:15] {dino} yes to b/e
[08:15] {bruce} k -that was my thought
[08:15] {bruce} we have 1 to 1 here
[08:15] {dino} or if scalping, book it
[08:16] {dino} if it gets to .00, bring stop to 1:1 and just see what happens
[08:17] {dino} to .15 stop now imo
[08:17] {dino} magoo says i'm stingy
[08:19] {dino} cov. ave .13, +.26, on that jump
[08:19] {dino} we'll key an eye on it
[08:19] {dino} brb
[08:21] {dino} rimm hod
[08:24] {Threei} remember my grim predictions for LDK?
[08:25] {Threei} have a look at it
[08:25] {Chaeron} messy
[08:28] {dino} wow
[08:30] {Roman} ESLR high
[08:32] {esemde} have a great rest of the day all.... see ya tomorrow
[08:33] {bruce} bye ses
[08:33] {bruce} ese
[08:33] {dino} cya ese
[08:33] {Threei} take care ese
[08:36] {dino} twgp spike
[08:38] {Threei} RIMM bounce candidate
[08:41] {dino} may have already missed rimm, pretty big move
[08:41] {Threei} under 109 would be nice if we get there
[08:41] {Threei} with its volatility there are plenty of bouncesa to scalp
[08:42] {dino} y
[08:44] {Threei} CLWR takeover rumors
[08:49] {bruce} rimm hit 109 vad
[08:50] {Threei} if grabbed RIMM under 109, take scalp here
[08:51] {bruce} Ididn't get it
[08:51] {bruce} no stop defiend
[08:51] {bruce} what would you have used vad?
[08:51] {bruce} prb need 50 c would think
[08:52] {Threei} it's different kind of play
[08:52] {Threei} following NQ rather than trading on its own merits
[08:53] {Threei} it hit 108.91, paused,
[08:53] {Threei} got back to 109, hesitated a little and broke it
[08:53] {Threei} that's the entry unless NQ drops hard
[08:53] {Threei} stop is NQ continuing down and ROMM making new low
[08:53] {Threei} RIMM
[08:53] {bruce} k
[08:54] {Threei} so in practicae it would look like this:
[08:54] {bruce} so using time and sales to judge momentum
[08:54] {Threei} NQ reverses, RIMM goes with it, fine,
[08:54] {bruce} and exit if it stalls while watching nq
[08:54] {Threei} NQ reverses RIMM makes new low, still holding,
[08:54] {Threei} since it's just its natuarl volatility
[08:54] {bruce} \k
[08:55] {Threei} and it's likely to bounce quickly if NQ shows strength
[08:55] {bruce} what do you call a play like that?
[08:55] {dino} chaos
[08:55] {Threei} playing the follower
[08:55] {dino} :)
[08:55] {Threei} lol
[08:55] {Threei} snake principle
[08:55] {Threei} watch where head goes to see where the tail is going to be
[08:56] {bruce} lol
[08:56] {bruce} think I will mostly avoid those plays for now
[08:56] {bruce} not much success with them
[08:57] {Threei} they can be very rewarding but they require lightening reflexes and good chunk of experience
[08:58] {bruce} they look inviting
[08:58] {bruce} quick movews
[08:58] {Threei} this is rather videogame kind of participation than normal technical trading
[08:58] {Threei} if you are good at Halo/Doom kind, shooting enemies left and right quickly...

[12:04] {Threei} as usual, this is the toughest kind of days to find a play
[12:04] {bruce} stopped nvda
[12:11] {dino} same here vad, the gap open and continue up are my toughest
[12:11] {Threei} yeah
[12:11] {Threei} and you know wnhat the most amazing thing is?
[12:11] {dino} chaos is moneymaker day
[12:11] {Threei} I make much more on big down days than I do on big up - yet most of plays are LONG
[12:12] {dino} same, cause i think capits on downs, euphoria on ups
[12:12] {dino} i'm pretty much a contrarian
[12:12] {Threei} remember I said yesterday, 11 trades on RIMM, 9 wins 2 stops?
[12:12] {dino} y
[12:12] {Threei} those 2 stops were both shorts
[12:12] {dino} lol
[12:12] {Threei} 9 wins were all longs
[12:12] {Threei} and that was big down day
[12:13] {dino} i was 3 for 4 on it, all long
[12:14] {Threei} whatever... I long as grew out of attempts to disect everything to every why... I accept things as they are and exploit them best I can even if I have no clue why they are what they are :)
[12:15] {Threei} there are enough academics to write tons of books explaining me why it's impossible to make money trading... I'll leave explanations to them
[12:16] {Threei} so far, no single losing day in Nov
[12:17] {dino} same, 2 down in oct
[12:18] {Threei} lemme look
[12:18] {dino} thats the key, no downs
[12:18] {Threei} you outdid me
[12:18] {Threei} 4 down days in Oct
[12:18] {Threei} but the worst of them is -180
[12:19] {dino} although, i am wrong, was down 85$ on nov 2
[12:19] {Threei} 3 others are less then 100 in minus
[12:19] {Threei} and I remember the -180 one - I started it with -700 thanks to my cat
[12:19] {dino} again, thats the key, took me awhile to realize a down cannot be bigger than an up
[12:19] {Threei} and spent a day digging out of a hole :)
[12:20] {bruce} geesh - so far 3 wins 4 loses this month
[12:21] {Threei} frikin thing stepped on a sound wire connecting main monitor with comouter and disconnected it,
[12:21] {Threei} I sent buy order for something evry volatile
[12:21] {Threei} no sound of order being filled,
[12:21] {Threei} I think I miss it,
[12:21] {Threei} switch to other stocks,
[12:22] {dino} i actually have alot of $200-400 days but not many down days, thats the difference
[12:22] {Threei} when I notice my P/L changes even though it shouldn't when I have no position, I am down 700 bucks lol
[12:22] {bruce} that was tough vad - down by accident
[12:22] {Threei} s**t happens
[12:24] {Threei} XMSR
[12:24] {Threei} SHAREHOLDERS APPROVE SIRI MERGER
[12:24] {Threei} I just shrug and start working on it, bruce :)
[12:24] {Threei} it is what it is
[12:26] {dino} exactly
[12:27] {dino} realistically, nothing matters its how you react
[12:27] {dino} asei stop to .65
[12:27] {Threei} yeah... the day it's proven that crying helps profiting from market I will learn to cry
[12:27] {dino} call me that day
[12:28] {Threei} if I may... one book I regard highly on this
[12:29] {Threei} 7 habits of the most effective people
[12:29] {dino} stopped asei +.30
[12:29] {Threei} there are things fully and totally out of our control
[12:29] {dino} 6/6 but all small hits, although just shy of daily
[12:29] {Threei} hurricanes... earthquakes... market moves
[12:30] {Threei} learn to form right mental attitude to deal with those
[12:30] {Threei} There are things that are in our immediate control
[12:30] {Threei} learn to manage them
[12:31] {Threei} and there are things that can be somewhat controlled through intermediary
[12:31] {Threei} by influencing other people
[12:31] {Threei} learn what factors matter and how to manage them
[12:32] {Threei} I hope esteemed Cohen will forgive me for quick and dirty overview
[12:32] {dino} get "millionaire traders", hits close to home on a couple of those traders
[12:32] {Threei} I can't read trading books anymore dino
[12:33] {dino} i understand, screws you up
[12:33] {Threei} mental block I guess, for the last 3 years at least
[12:33] {Threei} probably more
[12:33] {dino} first half of way of the turtles was pretty good too
[12:34] {Threei} Stephen King is fine with me
[12:35] {dino} lol
[12:35] {dino} best part of "trading in the zone" for me was; "anything can happen"
[12:35] {Threei} that one is very good
[12:36] {Threei} Zen in the market is very short and good
[12:37] {dino} rimm hod
[12:41] {Threei} scalped of 112
[12:42] {dino} was thinking of it, but chickened out
[12:45] {Threei} +81 NQ
[12:46] {Threei} a bit unreal
[12:48] {Threei} this second time I chickened out
[12:48] {Threei} so you must have gottent it
[12:49] {dino} no. pretty much done for the day
[12:49] {dino} gj tho
[12:50] {dino} will look at it tomorrow
[12:50] {dino} 10 pts up, may pull back
[12:51] {bruce} calling it a day folks
[12:51] {bruce} take care all
[12:51] {bruce} se you in am
[12:51] {Threei} take care bruce
[12:52] {Threei} thankl you all, have a good evening

[10:32] {bruce} 24c slippage - that sucks
[10:33] {bruce} crox drooped nearly by 1/2 in a week after showing nice uptrend
[10:33] {bruce} lots of long term traders got squashed there I bet
[10:34] {dino} oh yeah
[10:34] {dino} rimm, grmn too
[10:36] {bruce} yeah - the big boys
[10:36] {bruce} perfect for the kind of plays you do though dino
[10:38] {dino} yes
[10:39] {dino} fmcn drop
[10:41] {magoo} aapl bounce vad?
[10:42] {Threei} feels more like short to me
[10:42] {Threei} with NQ continuation down of course
[10:46] {bruce} \nice christmaqs rally oday
[10:49] {dino} fmcn l .00
[10:50] {bruce} stop to .50 dino?
[10:50] {dino} out .44, +.44
[10:50] {Threei} magoo... from what I observe, AAPL leads NQ today a l.ittle, instead of lagging
[10:51] {Threei} can't use NQ as indicator for it
[10:51] {dino} opps, yeah bruce, but out already
[10:51] {magoo} u got a read on rimmmvasd
[10:51] {bruce} yeah - see that
[10:51] {bruce} didn't get chance to enter
[10:51] {bruce} glad it worked ok
[10:53] {Threei} RIMM is short on bounce
[10:53] {Threei} no wau to pinpoint exact entry
[10:54] {Threei} moves 50 cents while I type
[10:54] {bruce} 104.75 or so vad?
[10:55] {bruce} w swtop to 105.25?
[10:55] {Threei} can't tell like this bruce, depends on what NQ does at the time
[10:55] {Threei} this is highly liquid situation, changes on a dime
[10:55] {bruce} k
[10:57] {Threei} bounce feel in the air
[11:00] {Threei} NQ break of 2020 should set bounce in motion
[11:04] {Threei} long RIMM
[11:04] {Threei} got .31, stiop under 103
[11:05] {Threei} out half
[11:05] {Threei} +.69
[11:06] {Threei} out flat
[11:06] {bruce} well done vad
[11:06] {Threei} a bit greedy ain't I
[11:07] {bruce} too fast for me on that one
[11:07] {bruce} don't think so
[11:07] {bruce} could have moved much higher if bounce took
[11:09] {Threei} anyone missed wisdom from above?
[11:09] {dino} cpla\
[11:10] {Threei} US ASSISTANT ENERGY SECRETARY HARBERT: US DOES NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHAT OIL PRICE WILL AFFECT THE ECONOMY- Says OPEC is 'very concerned' about Crude prices, US has received no commitment from OPEC to raise output
[11:12] {dino} inwk
[11:13] {dino} too fast
[11:18] {bruce} taking a break
[11:21] {Threei} magoo
[11:21] {Threei} can play RIMM off AAPL
[11:22] {Threei} AAPL leads by window large enough for scalp entry
[11:22] {dino} cpla hl l .69
[11:22] {dino} wide
[11:22] {magoo} watchin vad
[11:24] {Threei} see? :)
[11:24] {Threei} perfect scalp with nice delay
[11:25] {Threei} short time now
[11:25] {Threei} there... quick 40 cents
[11:27] {Threei} missed long this time
[11:29] {Threei} ugh
[11:29] {Threei} gotta be quick on this type
[11:30] {magoo} long or short here?
[11:30] {Threei} RIMM gave nice entry point, I just fell into coma at the moment
[11:30] {Threei} watching
[11:30] {Threei} long still
[11:32] {Threei} AAPL losing it now
[11:32] {Threei} and here follows RIMM
[11:33] {Threei} observe their tie, get a feel for the delay and according size of the moves, don't count on my running commentary, it happens too quick
[11:49] {esemde} Signing off...see you all tomorrow
[11:49] {Threei} take care ese
[11:49] {esemde} see ya Vad ...hopefully we have electricity tomorrow.
[11:54] {Threei} fess up time for magoo... how many litres of adrenalin during last 20minutes?
[11:56] {Threei} I am dropping this pair for now, delay window has closed up
[11:56] {bruce} say Vadster -
[11:56] {bruce} you think you could find something with a bit less adrenaline for me and mags to close off day?
[11:57] {Threei} if it comes along
[11:57] {bruce} lol
[11:57] {bruce} figures
[11:57] {Threei} as one of my favorite authors says,
[11:57] {Threei} There will be water if God wills it
[11:57] {cosmo} DIVX again?
[11:58] {Threei} quite possible, holding rather well
[11:58] {bruce} I can only handle so many adrenaline plays a day
[11:59] {Threei} .50 is DIVX support
[11:59] {cosmo} should hold 18.55 ... needs to hold .50
[11:59] {Threei} worth a try
[12:01] {dino} cpla stopped .35, -.34
[12:01] {dino} back in 10
[12:02] {Threei} this market drop is a perfect test for DIVX
[12:03] {bruce} are you waiting for a .76 entry in divx vad?
[12:03] {Threei} no, a bit too far
[12:03] {Threei} just want to see market reversing
[12:03] {Threei} want it as close to .50 as possible
[12:04] {bruce} k
[12:05] {Threei} in .65
[12:05] {Threei} .49 stop
[12:05] {Threei} it just won't pullback any
[12:05] {Threei} and upticks with each NQ bounce
[12:21] {Threei} stop to .59
[12:26] {Threei} grrr
[12:27] {Threei} was ready for final step to 1:1 when NQ dumped again
[12:27] {bruce} geesh
[12:28] {bruce} kicks divx
[12:28] {bruce} sorry vad
[12:28] {bruce} jinxed you
[12:29] {dino} hl l tbsi .50
[12:29] {Threei} 7 cents... I can live with it
[12:32] {Threei} watchRIMM for short if NQ dives off 2010
[12:32] {Threei} got .99
[12:33] {Threei} 103.21 stop
[12:36] {dino} out tbsi .98, +.48
[12:36] {Threei} out flat
[12:36] {Threei} too unclear
[12:38] {bruce} quick reflexes vad
[12:38] {bruce} I took the stop
[12:39] {Threei} I trade it in and out in a very quick sequences bruce
[12:39] {Threei} just can't post them
[12:39] {Threei} grabbed two longs since then
[12:40] {Threei} missed this short... too bad
[12:41] {bruce} you were right about short
[12:41] {bruce} stop was just a bit too tight
[12:41] {Threei} well... two ways to play them
[12:41] {Threei} tighter stops, reenter on new signal
[12:42] {Threei} or wider stop aand go for bugger moves, dino's way
[12:42] {bruce} yes
[12:42] {Threei} bigger
[12:42] {bruce} trying to learn how to do those plays
[12:42] {bruce} they really move fast
[12:45] {Threei} interested in BIOS, gotta keep it on watch tomorrow
[12:47] {dino} pulp baby
[12:47] {bruce} lol -
[12:48] {bruce} bugger moves
[12:48] {Threei} lol
[12:48] {bruce} ype that qbout describes them vad
[12:48] {Threei} no kidding

[12:50] {dino} 10 rounds
[12:50] {Threei} but inquiring minds want to know?
[12:51] {bruce} k- was guessing it was closer to 20
[12:51] {bruce} just curious
[12:52] {Threei} 9.53 is long tyrigger for BIOS for tomorrow
[12:52] {dino} depends on the type day, fridays more because its scalp day, today only 8
[12:52] {dino} no set rule
[12:53] {Threei} 16 for me today... a bit high considering that I missed almost half of the day
[12:53] {Threei} RIMM mesmerized me
[12:53] {dino} ditto
[12:53] {dino} i was waiting at 99.60
[12:54] {Threei} sheesh
[12:54] {bruce} lots of money to be made if a person can learn to trade plays like that
[12:54] {Threei} 11 trades on RIMM
[12:54] {Threei} 9 wins, 2 losses
[12:54] {bruce} I just can't read them fast enough
[12:54] {bruce} and usually get mailed when ai try
[12:54] {magoo} i lost my ass on rimm
[12:54] {dino} 4 for me, 1 loss
[12:54] {dino} you missed my first, 2 points
[12:55] {Threei} I wouldn't be able to hold that long anyway
[12:55] {Threei} :)

[12:57] {dino} going under 300 imo
[12:57] {dino} 125 points down +/-
[12:57] {dino} that has to hurt
[12:58] {cosmo} DIVX strong close
[12:58] {Threei} it's interesting on a quick dive under 300,
[12:58] {Threei} cefrtainly buy at 250,
[12:58] {Threei} and sell your kids and buy all you can at 200
