[11:28] {dino} rbcn s .30
[11:29] {Threei} pullback to 190 area would be compelling

[12:04] {Threei} and I alerted 8 minutes before actual setup... I just can't please, can I? :)
[12:04] {bruce} see how he does that day after day?
[12:04] {magoo} and he actually paid someone to distracrt me w/phone call

[05:49] {cosmo} MILE offers $292M in shares
[05:51] {Threei} Good morning
[05:53] {dptl} good morning all
[05:54] {Threei} dp :)
[06:03] {Threei} SPWR
[06:03] {Threei} INITIATING SOLAR POWER PILOT PROJECT IN CONJUNCTION WITH WAL-MART IN CALIFORNIA
[06:03] {Threei} - The store is the first of seven Wal-Mart facilities in California to receive high-efficiency solar power systems, totaling 4.6MW, and is part of a major purchase of solar power from SPWR and other solar power providers for approximately 22 Wal-Mart stores, Sam's Clubs.
[06:03] {Threei} - The stores included in the pilot project are expected to achieve
[06:04] {Threei} savings over their current utility rates as soon as the first day of operation.
[06:05] {cosmo} now, they need to sell some...
[06:06] {cosmo} cheap
[06:07] {esemde} morning rt's
[06:07] {Threei} ese :)
[06:09] {_windbreaker} GM
[06:09] {Threei} hi windbreaker
[06:11] {_windbreaker} do you guys trade futs here?
[06:11] {Threei} not as a primary vehicle
[06:11] {_windbreaker} okey
[06:12] {dino} gm all
[06:13] {Threei} dino :)
[06:13] {Threei} this whole thing with french rogue trader looks stranger by day
[06:14] {esemde} can anyone make s heads nor tails of it .....
[06:14] {Threei} it gets spinned as if he almost caused whole selloff around the world
[06:15] {Threei} or at least contributed to it to a degreee that made it such bigg selloff
[06:15] {esemde} I noticed that comment in CBS marketwatch yesterday...
[06:15] {dino} rumor has it the rogue trader had a subscription to realitytrader
[06:16] {magoo} morning rt
[06:16] {Threei} I am torn between "no comment" and denial sprinkled with feigned outrage
[06:16] {Threei} mags :)
[06:17] {esemde} now THAT!!!!!! was funny......
[06:17] {esemde} you need to up his subscription rate Vad
[06:17] {_pith} is hacking part pf the curriculum?
[06:17] {esemde} I hope so.........
[06:17] {cosmo} its upper division, i think
[06:18] {Threei} why ese, I am fine as long as he dccs me his trades...
[06:19] {dino} loles
[06:20] {Threei} I don't have much to say at this point guys, let's see how opening unwinds
[06:20] {Threei} in general, I feel bear contnues this week
[06:20] {Threei} we have fed approachinbg
[06:20] {Threei} (again)
[06:21] {Threei} and this hysterical emergency cut set all kinds of expectations for the meeting,
[06:21] {Threei} maybe 50 pts, maybe 75 again
[06:21] {Threei} whatever they do, market will be disappointed, IMO
[06:22] {cosmo} i expect a one point cut tonite.... during the speach
[06:22] {Threei} cosmo ups ante
[06:23] {Threei} me, I am patiently waiting for the day rates go negative and bank starts paying me for taking out the loan
[06:24] {Threei} so far, general idea seems to be, short the rallies
[06:25] {Threei} breakdowns don't generally work as nicely in bear market as breakouts do in a bull one
[06:25] {Threei} aggressive shorts off rallies is better way to go
[06:25] {Threei} not without its own challenges of course
[06:26] {Threei} laser users, you have indices quotes?
[06:27] {Threei} don't answer all at once
[06:28] {dptl} not here
[06:29] {Threei} OK, ty
[06:30] {Threei} DJI - 170, is it correct?
[06:31] {magoo} no
[06:31] {Threei} seems excessive vs SP and COMP
[06:31] {magoo} up 35
[06:31] {dptl} no

[07:32] {Threei} look at setup structure lum
[07:32] {Threei} "if holding above .80"
[07:32] {Threei} that gives you stop placement
[07:33] {lumdus} i though .92 would be the stop once i am in ..
[07:33] {Threei} by chart yes, but this is RIMM
[07:33] {Threei} gotta account for its natural volatility and pad a stop
[07:33] {Threei} to minimize chance of shakeout
[07:33] {lumdus} ok thanks

[07:40] {Threei} 51.08 if stays above .95
[07:43] {magoo} aapl short vad?
[07:43] {Threei} lol
[07:43] {Threei} TREASURY'S RYAN: INVESTORS SHOULD NOT BE OVERLY RELIANT ON RATINGS AGENCIES - CNBC
[07:43] {Threei} no?
[07:44] {lumdus} too funny
[07:44] {Threei} not sure mags
[07:45] {lumdus} short all 51.03 stop 51.08
[07:46] {lumdus} oh, crap
[07:46] {Threei} not sure I understood that entry lum
[07:46] {Threei} no breakout, no breakdown
[07:46] {Threei} why take a guess
[07:46] {dino} sm l de .50, wide
[07:46] {lumdus} vad, had alot of resistence
[07:47] {Threei} yes but hadn't broken support either
[07:47] {lumdus} isn't that a valid trade when there is so much resistance to short it.
[07:47] {lumdus} hmm, ok that is my mistake i guess
[07:47] {Threei} resistance by itelf is not indicative
[07:47] {Threei} break of it is
[07:47] {lumdus} a break of .95 would have been the right trade
[07:47] {Threei} just as support by itself means not more than a level to watch
[07:47] {Threei} it's what stock does with resistance or support that gives you a trading setup
[07:48] {lumdus} so .95 break would have been valid short ?
[07:48] {Threei} yes
[07:48] {Threei} just as .08 was valid long
[07:48] {dino} hod's
[07:49] {lumdus} ok tx vad
[07:50] {bruce} ceph long setup?
[07:51] {Threei} chart is right...
[07:51] {Threei} I would perfer market to pull back a bit
[07:52] {Threei} don't want to enter long after this move up
[07:52] {bruce} k
[07:52] {Threei} better see how it's holding while market pulls back to evaluate the relative strength
[07:53] {Threei} now if market breaks out, get CEPH aggressively
[07:53] {Threei} with nice tight stop under .15
[07:54] {Threei} no strength still
[07:54] {magoo} qid long here vad?
[07:55] {Threei} got invalidated without causing unnecessary stop, CEPH
[07:55] {bruce} yep
[07:56] {Threei} watching mags, no confidence yet
[07:56] {bruce} may find support at 67.10
[07:56] {magoo} k
[07:58] {Threei} looks like .51 long if stays above .30
[07:59] {Threei} keep .29 stop mags
[07:59] {bruce} \with futures out what are you using to call qid vad?

[08:13] {magoo} still reading qid vad?
[08:13] {Threei} backed off for now mags
[08:14] {Threei} a bit unclear
[08:15] {lumdus} look at all go - dumb mistake. slap please ?
[08:15] * magoo slaps lumdus around a bit with a large trout
[08:15] {lumdus} tx. so far a .70 mistake. hope someone else took it from the group.
[08:16] {Threei} lum, let me offer you general philosophical approach to this kind of setups
[08:16] {Threei} instead of trying to think of it in terms of chart, support, resistanc etc,
[08:16] {dino} flip a coin
[08:16] {Threei} think of it this way:
[08:16] {lumdus} listening
[08:16] {Threei} don't guess what stock is going to do,
[08:16] {Threei} don't tell it what to do,
[08:16] {Threei} allow it to tell you what to do
[08:16] {Threei} and listen to it.
[08:17] {Threei} in this case, it was willing to tell you what to do by breaking this way or that
[08:17] {Threei} sometimes it will lie to you
[08:17] {Threei} by telling you what to do, then reversing
[08:18] {Threei} but on grand scheme of things, it will be truthful more often than not
[08:18] {dino} cut glw -.05, not moving
[08:18] {lumdus} ok get it
[08:19] {dino} probabilities.....indeed
[08:20] {bruce} good idea dino - eneded up getting hit for full stop
[08:21] {dino} sorry bro
[08:21] {bruce} it happens - was thinking of early exit too - oh well
[08:22] {Roman} GLD is making highs
[08:22] {Roman} watching DROOY

[08:24] {Roman} lumdus, i am still in gold
[08:24] {Roman} small with a stop 46.70

[08:49] {Threei} we are in lunch time... just no idea, anything can happen
[08:49] {Threei} even earlier attempts to hold half didn't work
[08:49] {Threei} why would they now
[08:53] {Threei} you took it mags or trying to hold?
[08:54] {magoo} holding
[08:54] {Threei} good luck, rooting for you

[09:24] {magoo} anyone try arca today?
[09:24] {magoo} quotes good?
[09:24] {Threei} looks OK so far
[09:25] {magoo} ty
[09:25] {esemde} my view of the market is that it's the end of month/beginning of month mutual fund buying to be followed by resumtion of indexes heading down
[09:27] {dino} not my view es, but anytyhing can happen
[09:28] {esemde} how do you see it dino
[09:28] {dino} lots of my friends are complaining about losing money, don't see a lot of buying by joe 6 pack
[09:29] {dino} but who knows, who cares...traders trade, thats what we do
[09:29] {Threei} CKEC is at it again
[09:29] {esemde} i don't have a fundamental reason just the old adage....an object in motion deal....
[09:30] {dino} np, don't take anything personally
[09:31] {dino} in the end it doesn't matter, imo
[09:31] {esemde} heck no man........respect your opinion big time....
[09:32] {dino} same here
[09:33] {dino} chtt stopped -.26, ave.
[09:36] {Threei} anyone took QID off .50?
[09:36] {magoo} no, did u?
[09:36] {Threei} got distracted in dcc, missed moment
[09:37] {Threei} did exactly what I called earlier
[09:38] {Threei} just don't chase
[09:38] {Threei} entry of rallies is the way to handle this market
[09:39] {Threei} breakdwons will offer more shakeouts than wins
[09:39] {esemde} what do you mean by entry of rallies Vad
[09:40] {esemde} in indexes or stocks?
[09:40] {esemde} buy on pullbacks
[09:40] {Threei} no, short off bounces
[09:41] {Threei} when it comes to QID, it's long off pullbacks of course
[09:41] {esemde} a ha..
[09:42] {bruce} wft vad - any read?
[09:42] {dino} sigm l .80
[09:43] {Threei} not really bruce
[09:43] {bruce} k
[09:43] {dino} lol bruce
[09:44] {dino} oopps, thought you said wtf vad
[09:44] {Threei} that was my first thought too
[09:44] {Threei} but I looked closely just as I was unholstering the trout
[09:45] {bruce} sheesh
[09:45] {Threei} lol
[09:45] {dino} great minds think alike, lol
[09:45] {Threei} don't be sad bruce, Copernicus was widely misunderstood too
[09:47] {Threei} see what buying QID break around .80 would do to you?
[09:48] {bruce} you like qid long agqain near .5?
[09:48] {Threei} no, not this time
[09:49] {Threei} 50/50 shot here
[09:49] {bruce} figured - no point making things too predictable
[09:49] {Threei} first time around it was clean pullback in the trend
[09:49] {Threei} this time it's not, trend has stalled,
[09:49] {esemde} i'm otta here ya'll have a good day!
[09:49] {Threei} it's more like establishing range at this point
[09:50] {magoo} wait
[09:50] {Threei} take care ese
[09:50] {magoo} rats
[09:50] {magoo} hes fast
[09:51] {Threei} and as far as range goes, lower limit is about .40
[09:51] {Threei} so, best trade would be if it breaks down throuigh .40, dives quickly scaring the living daylight out of traders
[09:51] {Threei} and long entry would be in order for the bounce back in the range
[09:52] {Threei} kind of "take side of shakers instead of being shaken"
[09:55] {bruce} k- thanks vad

[12:37] {magoo} how about rimm and aapl now?
[12:37] {dino} sm l jaso .00
[12:38] {Threei} feels short on both, long QID accordingly
[12:38] {magoo} u taking any?
[12:38] {Threei} nope
[12:38] {Threei} too good day to do this kind of trades so close to eod
[12:39] {bruce} I missed jaso - stop would hav e been 56.65 or so dino?
[12:39] {Threei} looking for entry is challenging enough in this environment, don't need asditional burden of last 20 min emotions
[12:40] {Threei} you noticed the way I did it today
[12:40] {Threei} not only looked for aggressive entries, but wanted them on price overshooting the reasonable pullbacks
[12:40] {Threei} missed some because of that but winning percentrage on those that got caught was beyond nice
[12:41] {bruce} I see your point vad - lots of moves vilating obvious suppoort level today then reversing
[12:41] {dino} out jaso .30, +.30
[12:41] {bruce} all in all - pretty small moves though
[12:41] {Threei} right, that's what I incorporated in today's entries
[12:41] {bruce} nice dino
[12:41] {dino} ty bruce, you get it?
[12:42] {bruce} no - bid at 00 not filled
[12:42] {Threei} if I wanted to trade, I'd look for QID long on this selling
[12:42] {dino} ok, was watching oih w/it, when oih started up, so did it
[12:43] {dino} damn, out way too soon
[12:43] {Threei} and RIMM short with stop above 92

[12:49] {Threei} you see the clock bruce?
[12:49] {Threei} just making sure you haven't lost track of time :)
[12:49] {bruce} good point vad
[12:50] {bruce} hanging up hat
[12:50] {Threei} easy to do getting caught in the excitement
[12:50] {Threei} then scream "turn those machines back on"
[12:51] {dino} no bruce
[12:51] {dino} for me, its' easier to short/long, individual stocks, rather than index
[12:52] {dino} alxn
[12:53] {Threei} OK guys, done for the day
[12:53] {bruce} k - but sounds like you use index to get advance idea of direction change
[12:53] {Threei} turned out quite nice one

[12:53] {dino} yes bruce, exactly
[12:53] {dptl} have a good evening all

[06:03] {Threei} SPWR
[06:03] {Threei} INITIATING SOLAR POWER PILOT PROJECT IN CONJUNCTION WITH WAL-MART IN CALIFORNIA
[06:03] {Threei} - The store is the first of seven Wal-Mart facilities in California to receive high-efficiency solar power systems, totaling 4.6MW, and is part of a major purchase of solar power from SPWR and other solar power providers for approximately 22 Wal-Mart stores, Sam's Clubs.
[06:03] {Threei} - The stores included in the pilot project are expected to achieve
[06:04] {Threei} savings over their current utility rates as soon as the first day of operation.
[06:05] {cosmo} now, they need to sell some...
[06:06] {cosmo} cheap
[06:07] {esemde} morning rt's
[06:07] {Threei} ese :)
[06:09] {_windbreaker} GM
[06:09] {Threei} hi windbreaker
[06:11] {_windbreaker} do you guys trade futs here?
[06:11] {Threei} not as a primary vehicle
[06:11] {_windbreaker} okey
[06:12] {dino} gm all
[06:13] {Threei} dino :)
[06:13] {Threei} this whole thing with french rogue trader looks stranger by day
[06:14] {esemde} can anyone make s heads nor tails of it .....
[06:14] {Threei} it gets spinned as if he almost caused whole selloff around the world
[06:15] {Threei} or at least contributed to it to a degreee that made it such bigg selloff
[06:15] {esemde} I noticed that comment in CBS marketwatch yesterday...
[06:15] {dino} rumor has it the rogue trader had a subscription to realitytrader
[06:16] {magoo} morning rt
[06:16] {Threei} I am torn between "no comment" and denial sprinkled with feigned outrage
[06:16] {Threei} mags :)
[06:17] {esemde} now THAT!!!!!! was funny......
[06:17] {esemde} you need to up his subscription rate Vad
[06:17] {_pith} is hacking part pf the curriculum?
[06:17] {esemde} I hope so.........
[06:17] {cosmo} its upper division, i think
[06:18] {Threei} why ese, I am fine as long as he dccs me his trades...
[06:19] {dino} loles
[06:20] {Threei} I don't have much to say at this point guys, let's see how opening unwinds
[06:20] {Threei} in general, I feel bear contnues this week
[06:20] {Threei} we have fed approachinbg
[06:20] {Threei} (again)
[06:21] {Threei} and this hysterical emergency cut set all kinds of expectations for the meeting,
[06:21] {Threei} maybe 50 pts, maybe 75 again
[06:21] {Threei} whatever they do, market will be disappointed, IMO
[06:22] {cosmo} i expect a one point cut tonite.... during the speach
[06:22] {Threei} cosmo ups ante
[06:23] {Threei} me, I am patiently waiting for the day rates go negative and bank starts paying me for taking out the loan
[06:24] {Threei} so far, general idea seems to be, short the rallies
[06:25] {Threei} breakdowns don't generally work as nicely in bear market as breakouts do in a bull one
[06:25] {Threei} aggressive shorts off rallies is better way to go
[06:25] {Threei} not without its own challenges of course
[06:26] {Threei} laser users, you have indices quotes?
[06:27] {Threei} don't answer all at once

[07:32] {lumdus} tx vad nice one .. keep the good work running ..
[07:32] {Threei} look at setup structure lum
[07:32] {Threei} "if holding above .80"
[07:32] {Threei} that gives you stop placement
[07:33] {lumdus} i though .92 would be the stop once i am in ..
[07:33] {Threei} by chart yes, but this is RIMM
[07:33] {Threei} gotta account for its natural volatility and pad a stop
[07:33] {Threei} to minimize chance of shakeout
[07:33] {lumdus} ok thanks
[07:34] {Threei} long again RIMM.56
[07:34] {Threei} stop under .40

[07:43] {Threei} TREASURY'S RYAN: INVESTORS SHOULD NOT BE OVERLY RELIANT ON RATINGS AGENCIES - CNBC
[07:43] {Threei} no?
[07:44] {lumdus} too funny
[07:44] {Threei} not sure mags
[07:45] {lumdus} short all 51.03 stop 51.08
[07:46] {lumdus} oh, crap
[07:46] {Threei} not sure I understood that entry lum
[07:46] {Threei} no breakout, no breakdown
[07:46] {Threei} why take a guess
[07:46] {dino} sm l de .50, wide
[07:46] {lumdus} vad, had alot of resistence
[07:47] {Threei} yes but hadn't broken support either
[07:47] {lumdus} isn't that a valid trade when there is so much resistance to short it.
[07:47] {lumdus} hmm, ok that is my mistake i guess
[07:47] {Threei} resistance by itelf is not indicative
[07:47] {Threei} break of it is
[07:47] {lumdus} a break of .95 would have been the right trade
[07:47] {Threei} just as support by itself means not more than a level to watch
[07:47] {Threei} it's what stock does with resistance or support that gives you a trading setup
[07:48] {lumdus} so .95 break would have been valid short ?
[07:48] {Threei} yes
[07:48] {Threei} just as .08 was valid long
[07:48] {dino} hod's
[07:49] {lumdus} ok tx vad
[07:50] {bruce} ceph long setup?
[07:51] {Threei} chart is right...
[07:51] {Threei} I would perfer market to pull back a bit
[07:52] {Threei} don't want to enter long after this move up
[07:52] {bruce} k
[07:52] {Threei} better see how it's holding while market pulls back to evaluate the relative strength
[07:53] {Threei} now if market breaks out, get CEPH aggressively
[07:53] {Threei} with nice tight stop under .15
[07:54] {Threei} no strength still
[07:54] {magoo} qid long here vad?
[07:55] {Threei} got invalidated without causing unnecessary stop, CEPH
[07:55] {bruce} yep
[07:56] {Threei} watching mags, no confidence yet
[07:56] {bruce} may find support at 67.10
[07:56] {magoo} k
[07:58] {Threei} looks like .51 long if stays above .30
[07:59] {Threei} keep .29 stop mags
[07:59] {bruce} \with futures out what are you using to call qid vad?

[08:14] {Threei} a bit unclear
[08:15] {lumdus} look at all go - dumb mistake. slap please ?
[08:15] * magoo slaps lumdus around a bit with a large trout
[08:15] {lumdus} tx. so far a .70 mistake. hope someone else took it from the group.
[08:16] {Threei} lum, let me offer you general philosophical approach to this kind of setups
[08:16] {Threei} instead of trying to think of it in terms of chart, support, resistanc etc,
[08:16] {dino} flip a coin
[08:16] {Threei} think of it this way:
[08:16] {lumdus} listening
[08:16] {Threei} don't guess what stock is going to do,
[08:16] {Threei} don't tell it what to do,
[08:16] {Threei} allow it to tell you what to do
[08:16] {Threei} and listen to it.
[08:17] {Threei} in this case, it was willing to tell you what to do by breaking this way or that
[08:17] {Threei} sometimes it will lie to you
[08:17] {Threei} by telling you what to do, then reversing
[08:18] {Threei} but on grand scheme of things, it will be truthful more often than not
[08:18] {dino} cut glw -.05, not moving
[08:18] {lumdus} ok get it
[08:19] {dino} probabilities.....indeed
[08:20] {bruce} good idea dino - eneded up getting hit for full stop
[08:21] {dino} sorry bro
[08:21] {bruce} it happens - was thinking of early exit too - oh well

[09:24] {magoo} quotes good?
[09:24] {Threei} looks OK so far
[09:25] {magoo} ty
[09:25] {esemde} my view of the market is that it's the end of month/beginning of month mutual fund buying to be followed by resumtion of indexes heading down
[09:27] {dino} not my view es, but anytyhing can happen
[09:28] {esemde} how do you see it dino
[09:28] {dino} lots of my friends are complaining about losing money, don't see a lot of buying by joe 6 pack
[09:29] {dino} but who knows, who cares...traders trade, thats what we do
[09:29] {Threei} CKEC is at it again
[09:29] {esemde} i don't have a fundamental reason just the old adage....an object in motion deal....
[09:30] {dino} np, don't take anything personally
[09:31] {dino} in the end it doesn't matter, imo
[09:31] {esemde} heck no man........respect your opinion big time....
[09:32] {dino} same here
[09:33] {dino} chtt stopped -.26, ave.
[09:36] {Threei} anyone took QID off .50?
[09:36] {magoo} no, did u?
[09:36] {Threei} got distracted in dcc, missed moment
[09:37] {Threei} did exactly what I called earlier
[09:38] {Threei} just don't chase
[09:38] {Threei} entry of rallies is the way to handle this market
[09:39] {Threei} breakdwons will offer more shakeouts than wins
[09:39] {esemde} what do you mean by entry of rallies Vad
[09:40] {esemde} in indexes or stocks?
[09:40] {esemde} buy on pullbacks
[09:40] {Threei} no, short off bounces
[09:41] {Threei} when it comes to QID, it's long off pullbacks of course
[09:41] {esemde} a ha..
[09:42] {bruce} wft vad - any read?
[09:42] {dino} sigm l .80
[09:43] {Threei} not really bruce
[09:43] {bruce} k
[09:43] {dino} lol bruce
[09:44] {dino} oopps, thought you said wtf vad
[09:44] {Threei} that was my first thought too
[09:44] {Threei} but I looked closely just as I was unholstering the trout
[09:45] {bruce} sheesh
[09:45] {Threei} lol
[09:45] {dino} great minds think alike, lol
[09:45] {Threei} don't be sad bruce, Copernicus was widely misunderstood too
[09:47] {Threei} see what buying QID break around .80 would do to you?
[09:48] {bruce} you like qid long agqain near .5?
[09:48] {Threei} no, not this time
[09:49] {Threei} 50/50 shot here
[09:49] {bruce} figured - no point making things too predictable
[09:49] {Threei} first time around it was clean pullback in the trend
[09:49] {Threei} this time it's not, trend has stalled,
[09:49] {esemde} i'm otta here ya'll have a good day!
[09:49] {Threei} it's more like establishing range at this point
[09:50] {magoo} wait
[09:50] {Threei} take care ese
[09:50] {magoo} rats
[09:50] {magoo} hes fast
[09:51] {Threei} and as far as range goes, lower limit is about .40
[09:51] {Threei} so, best trade would be if it breaks down throuigh .40, dives quickly scaring the living daylight out of traders
[09:51] {Threei} and long entry would be in order for the bounce back in the range
[09:52] {Threei} kind of "take side of shakers instead of being shaken"
[09:55] {bruce} k- thanks vad
[09:58] {bruce} takingbreak
[10:03] {Threei} comr on QID

[10:44] {Threei} probably yes
[10:44] {Threei} as close to .30 as possible
[10:44] {Threei} .24 stop
[10:44] {Threei} first strength from here
[10:45] {Threei} got .27
[10:46] {lumdus} in efii 13.99

[10:57] {lumdus} ok sounds good.
[10:58] {lumdus} in txn 30.18
[11:00] {lumdus} stop on txn 30.09
[11:01] {Threei} looking to short QID
[11:02] {Threei} somewhere above .30, on a sign of weakness and only if keeps below .40
[11:03] {Threei} one more spike please QID
[11:04] {lumdus} so maybe we ride the spike
[11:04] {lumdus} in symc 16.76
[11:04] {Threei} in .30 but got just half order filled
[11:05] {lumdus} stop on sync 16.76
[11:05] {Threei} .41 stop
[11:08] {Threei} 1:1 QID
[11:09] {Threei} covered half .13
[11:09] {Threei} would have taken full scalp if I got full lot filled
[11:09] {Threei} but with lousy half under the belt, can just as well see if it's ready to break
[11:11] {Threei} out in full QID
[11:11] {Threei} +.30

[11:19] {Threei} US TREASURY'S RYAN: EFFECTS OF LACK OF LIQUIDITY ARE TRANSITORY,
[11:19] {Threei} - Will take time to revalue market assets so volatility will continue
[11:20] {dino} why do they feel the need to talk every day
[11:20] {Threei} beats me
[11:20] {Threei} not like they have anything meaningful to say
[11:20] {lumdus} in mro 49.83

[11:27] {Threei} .99 short QID, .11 stop
[11:28] {Threei} no worky
[11:32] {bruce} not a great day for reversla plays dino
[11:33] {dino} no, not much spiking or collapsing
[11:33] {dino} everything a bit too gradual for my style
[11:34] {bruce} agreed
[11:34] {bruce} typical monday
[11:35] {dino} yeah, i'm up, but under daily
[11:36] {bruce} I'm down again

[12:24] {magoo} yt
[12:24] {magoo} ty
[12:24] {magoo} too fasr to post
[12:25] {magoo} riomm read vad?
[12:25] {magoo} rimm
[12:26] {Threei} short for scalp
[12:26] {Threei} one more spike is desirable
[12:26] {magoo} i thoght long
[12:27] {Threei} long only if holding above .85 and break 91.03
[12:31] {Threei} did any?
[12:31] {magoo} yes
[12:31] {magoo} .09
[12:31] {magoo} wait .45
[12:31] {Threei} both worked if you are fast as wild west draw champion
[12:32] {magoo} out .45 hewre
[12:32] {magoo} ty
[12:32] {Threei} good one
[12:32] {dino} gj
[12:32] {magoo} im giving u all the easy ones he he to read
[12:32] {magoo} aapl..rimm..qid
[12:32] {Threei} ah thank you
[12:33] {Threei} I appreciate it
[12:33] {magoo} i know u do
[12:33] {Threei} as soon as you request GOOG read I'll know you are so very kind to me
[12:37] {magoo} how about rimm and aapl now?
[12:37] {dino} sm l jaso .00
[12:38] {Threei} feels short on both, long QID accordingly
[12:38] {magoo} u taking any?
[12:38] {Threei} nope
[12:38] {Threei} too good day to do this kind of trades so close to eod
[12:39] {bruce} I missed jaso - stop would hav e been 56.65 or so dino?
[12:39] {Threei} looking for entry is challenging enough in this environment, don't need asditional burden of last 20 min emotions
[12:40] {Threei} you noticed the way I did it today
[12:40] {Threei} not only looked for aggressive entries, but wanted them on price overshooting the reasonable pullbacks
[12:40] {Threei} missed some because of that but winning percentrage on those that got caught was beyond nice
[12:41] {bruce} I see your point vad - lots of moves vilating obvious suppoort level today then reversing
[12:41] {dino} out jaso .30, +.30
[12:41] {bruce} all in all - pretty small moves though
[12:41] {Threei} right, that's what I incorporated in today's entries
[12:41] {bruce} nice dino
[12:41] {dino} ty bruce, you get it?
[12:42] {bruce} no - bid at 00 not filled
[12:42] {Threei} if I wanted to trade, I'd look for QID long on this selling
[12:42] {dino} ok, was watching oih w/it, when oih started up, so did it
[12:43] {dino} damn, out way too soon
[12:43] {Threei} and RIMM short with stop above 92
[12:43] {bruce} got you
[12:43] {dino} wow we just jumped about 60 pts dji
[12:44] {dino} tson, waiting sm at .32
[12:44] {bruce} so jaso tends to follow oih?
[12:44] {dino} solar, oih. delayed, but usually after their initial day setup
[12:45] {bruce} hmm k
[12:47] {Threei} couldn't help myself, got .22 QID
[12:47] {Threei} out .37
[12:47] {dino} wwin
[12:47] {dino} thin
[12:47] {magoo} i dicked your aapl sh call, went long .05 exited .64
[12:49] {bruce} does the dji pop create a shorting opportunity dino?
[12:49] {Threei} you see the clock bruce?
[12:49] {Threei} just making sure you haven't lost track of time :)
[12:49] {bruce} good point vad
[12:50] {bruce} hanging up hat
[12:50] {Threei} easy to do getting caught in the excitement
[12:50] {Threei} then scream "turn those machines back on"
[12:51] {dino} no bruce
[12:51] {dino} for me, its' easier to short/long, individual stocks, rather than index
[12:52] {dino} alxn
[12:53] {Threei} OK guys, done for the day
[12:53] {bruce} k - but sounds like you use index to get advance idea of direction change
[12:53] {Threei} turned out quite nice one
[12:53] {magoo} ty vad
[12:53] {dino} yes bruce, exactly
[12:53] {dptl} have a good evening all
[12:53] {Threei} albeit not very easy but profitable
[12:53] {Threei} have a good evening, see you tomorrow
[12:54] {dino} i watch oih, dji, $ndx all day right w/the stocks i'm interested in
[12:54] {dino} cya vad
[12:54] {dino} cya dp
[12:55] {dino} cx tson, no time
[12:57] {dino} ok, thats all for me, thx for ideas

[10:16] {Threei} reading
[10:20] {Threei} good one, ty
[10:21] {Threei} if that market bounce was really plunge protection team's work, we are going down big time
[10:21] {Threei} which will be a very good thing for us
[10:23] {lumdus} vad, a day like today i don't see any trends working. I am watching now wb, looks like the best short in th
[10:23] {lumdus} the world. you think it will work ?
[10:23] {lumdus} WB
[10:24] {Threei} I don't think lum...
[10:24] {Threei} I simply trade when I see a good setup
[10:24] {Threei} then market tells me whether it's profit or stop
[10:25] {Threei} WB looks fine
[10:25] {Threei} I'd prefer short on bounce
[10:25] {Threei} closest resistance is .60
[10:25] {lumdus} i don't think i am taking anything yet .. just watching
[10:26] {Threei} if it bounces closer to .60, I'd watch for first sign of weakness to short
[10:26] {lumdus} let me know if you get in
[10:26] {Threei} if market plunges without bounce from here, .34 short trigger
[10:26] {Threei} but with stop weing above .60, size should be controlled
[10:26] {dino} ofor 2 dv, stopped done w/it
[10:27] {bruce} stopped dv - .56
[10:28] {Threei} if it loses .30, move stop to above .50
[10:28] {dino} nihd tighten to .98
[10:29] {dino} going for the -200, sheesh
[10:29] {dino} another 230+ range day
[10:32] {dino} nihd stopped .00, -.21
[10:32] {dino} that should not have happened
[10:32] {dino} ok now

[10:38] {lumdus} i got out
[10:39] {Threei} see... no thinking required
[10:39] {lumdus} scared we bounce now
[10:40] {lumdus} yes, in out
[10:45] {lumdus} how about cof .. looks tempting on a small bounce maybe
[10:45] {lumdus} if it stays below 46.09
[10:45] {Threei} toughie
[10:46] {lumdus} yeah, but when it falls it does so nicely. very tempting .. hold me back then
[10:53] {dino} -220 almost
[10:54] {Threei} now 400 ponts bounce will complete tha chaos
[10:56] {patience} ok vad, i need a little pep talk about not dumping a position because i am merely frustrated. SDS is up $2.10 after i sold.
[10:56] {Threei} with your timeframe... don't watch tick by tick :)
[10:57] {Threei} place your stop, place your best case sell
[10:57] {Threei} look once every hour or so

[10:06] {Threei} feels this way... but not without bounces
[10:06] {lumdus} yeah, i felt like a bouncing ball all day today

[10:12] {lumdus} sure looks like it.
[10:15] {patience} vad, scalping should be good in over next 2 weeks if one of my fav reporters is correct http://www.nypost.com/seven/01242008/business/you_should_be_wary_of_this_market_reboun_412433.htm
[10:16] {Threei} reading
[10:20] {Threei} good one, ty
[10:21] {Threei} if that market bounce was really plunge protection team's work, we are going down big time
[10:21] {Threei} which will be a very good thing for us
[10:23] {lumdus} vad, a day like today i don't see any trends working. I am watching now wb, looks like the best short in th
[10:23] {lumdus} the world. you think it will work ?
[10:23] {lumdus} WB
[10:24] {Threei} I don't think lum...
[10:24] {Threei} I simply trade when I see a good setup
[10:24] {Threei} then market tells me whether it's profit or stop
[10:25] {Threei} WB looks fine
[10:25] {Threei} I'd prefer short on bounce
[10:25] {Threei} closest resistance is .60
[10:25] {lumdus} i don't think i am taking anything yet .. just watching
[10:26] {Threei} if it bounces closer to .60, I'd watch for first sign of weakness to short
[10:26] {lumdus} let me know if you get in
[10:26] {Threei} if market plunges without bounce from here, .34 short trigger
[10:26] {Threei} but with stop weing above .60, size should be controlled
[10:26] {dino} ofor 2 dv, stopped done w/it
[10:27] {bruce} stopped dv - .56
[10:28] {Threei} if it loses .30, move stop to above .50
[10:28] {dino} nihd tighten to .98
[10:29] {dino} going for the -200, sheesh
[10:29] {dino} another 230+ range day
[10:32] {dino} nihd stopped .00, -.21
[10:32] {dino} that should not have happened
[10:32] {dino} ok now
[10:36] {Threei} WB 2 cents shy 1:1
[10:38] {lumdus} i got out
[10:39] {Threei} see... no thinking required
[10:39] {lumdus} scared we bounce now
[10:40] {lumdus} yes, in out
[10:45] {lumdus} how about cof .. looks tempting on a small bounce maybe
[10:45] {lumdus} if it stays below 46.09
[10:45] {Threei} toughie
[10:46] {lumdus} yeah, but when it falls it does so nicely. very tempting .. hold me back then
[10:53] {dino} -220 almost
[10:54] {Threei} now 400 ponts bounce will complete tha chaos
[10:56] {patience} ok vad, i need a little pep talk about not dumping a position because i am merely frustrated. SDS is up $2.10 after i sold.
[10:56] {Threei} with your timeframe... don't watch tick by tick :)
[10:57] {Threei} place your stop, place your best case sell
[10:57] {Threei} look once every hour or so
[10:57] {Threei} just to avoid situation when it came to your desired target and reversed couple ticks shy
[10:57] {lumdus} ok, in long the whole market
[11:00] {dino} lmia l .51, sm, stop .09
[11:06] {bruce} taking break
[11:06] {bruce} nasty day
[11:07] {Threei} AAPL short small under .30
[11:07] {dino} you ok?

[10:19] {Chaeron} aren't all traders "rogue" Patience? :)
[10:21] {Threei} I think they quote me
[10:21] {Threei} sheer folly and utter irresponsibility it is for the Fed to use its limited ammunition to intervene in equity prices
[10:22] {dino} back
[10:27] {patience} sorry Chaeron, just back....just bought June Yen calls (XDN)
[10:30] {Chaeron} you rogue trader, you....
[10:30] {Threei} CKEC really wants 6 or what
[10:32] {dino} all i find is a special u2 concert movie sceening in feb
[10:33] {Threei} and Rambo coming in jan
[10:34] {dino} lol
[10:34] {dino} de would've worked bruce good spot
[10:41] {bruce} thanx dino
[10:41] {bruce} just got back
[10:42] {dino} ckec, vad i'm thinking short it
[10:42] {Threei} tempting
[10:42] {Threei} but still holding and even getting some buys
[10:42] {dino} the buyers are fools, lol
[10:43] {dino} setiously tho, i am waiting at 6.42
[10:43] {Threei} oh
[10:43] {dino} seriously
[10:43] {Threei} if it goes that high, I'll be with you :)
[10:45] {dino} thats why i am there, it shouldn't but anything can happen
[10:46] {Threei} STIMULUS PLAN: HOUSE SPEAKER PELOSI: 117M FAMILIES TO GET TAX REBATE CHECK UNDER PLAN, GSE LIMIT UP - WIRE CITES DOCUMENTS- FNM FRE conforming loan limts to rise to $625,00 from $417,000 for one year
[10:47] {bruce} aapl short?
[10:48] {Threei} you OK with stop over 134?
[10:48] {dino} for one year fnm? then crush 'em again?
[10:48] {magoo} i like aapl long
[10:49] {bruce} sure - can just adjust for size
[10:49] {dino} aapl been holding the support, imo, don't know about short
[10:49] {Threei} whole rescue plan starting with fed cuts feels like doomed exercise in futility to me, dino
[10:49] {Threei} and will backfire badly
[10:50] {bruce} a bear market is overdue
[10:50] {dino} avtr big bounce, thin toughy
[10:50] {bruce} we had that big rally hat went right thru summer last year
[10:51] {dino} agree 3i, except i think rate cuts would handle the whole problem....this other stuff is politics, election year here
[10:51] {dino} avtr a builder, tol, etc. they may bounce on this
[10:52] {dino} seems so
[10:52] {Threei} maybe careful and calcutated rate cuts... not this knee-jerk reaction to masrket fluctuations
[10:52] {dptl} same stop on idix ,Vad? .89
[10:52] {dino} yeah 2 bucks avtr, sheesh
[10:53] {Threei} we may have different timefreames on it dp... if it doesn't break today I am willing to hold it
[10:53] {Threei} if you aren't, trail to .94
[10:54] {dptl} ok
[10:54] {Threei} my stop is still at .84
[10:55] {Threei} and I was hesitant to move it there from .79 even :)
[10:55] {dino} agree 3i, but in the end none of it matters...markets will do what they want. time is the hell we all live in
[10:58] {Threei} the only difference I have is,
[10:58] {Threei} I don't believe they can improve things with their interventions
[10:58] {Threei} but I believe they can and do make things worse
[10:59] {Threei} you know what road is paved with best intentions...
[11:00] {dino} however, short term the easiest fix is to re-inflate, deflation is a far worse chaos risk at this point
[11:00] {dino} especially in election year
[11:00] {dino} enough tho. i am done
[11:00] {Threei} fork?
[11:01] {dino} lol
[11:01] {Threei} :)
[11:02] {magoo} bruce, that was a good short read on aapl
[11:02] {bruce} thanx mags
[11:02] {Threei} you did it bruce?
[11:02] {bruce} didn't take it -

[11:05] {bruce} yeah - good point vad

[11:06] {bruce} looking for more of those big point moves now mags
[11:07] {Threei} 6 on horizon, CKEC
[11:07] {dino} trust your gut bruce
[11:07] {Threei} and has this smell of inevitability

[11:44] {dptl} ok
[11:45] {Threei} I completely distrust them all today, prefer tighter stops
[11:46] {dino} ckec tighten to .18 not working
[11:46] {dino} ckec stopped .18, -.23
[11:47] {dino} crazy one
[11:52] {Threei} that Rambo must be really good
[11:52] {bruce} out balance algt =.27
[11:54] {bruce} rambo was my last cat vad
[11:54] {bruce} he wasw one crazy bad nasty kitty
[11:54] {bruce} you wouldn't want to cross him
[11:57] {dino} wrld sm s .33, stop .61
[11:57] {Threei} I wouldn't want to cross real rambo either
[11:57] {Threei} or the actor for that matter
[11:58] {bruce} my cat was the real rambo
[11:58] {bruce} taught that actor everything he knew
[11:58] {Threei} TREASURY'S PAULSON: NO DOUBT ECONOMIC GROWTH HAS SLOWED, STIMULUS PACKAGE WILL NOT CONTAIN FUNDS TO DEAL WITH HOUSING MARKET

[12:03] {Threei} dino... interested in PRXL?
[12:03] {Threei} let me rephrase that
[12:04] {Threei} may I interest you in some PRXL?
[12:04] {magoo} vad, your feelinhg/ up or down inlast hour
[12:05] {Threei} I am so feelingless today...
[12:05] {Threei} each time when it seems something shapes up, market makes opposite move
[12:05] {bruce} have some wodka vad
[12:05] {Threei} and doesn't even set up for opposite directikon, just floats like piece of you know what in random currents
[12:08] {dino} how could we wrld stopped -.33
[12:09] {dino} i think bruce is right vad, have a shot
[12:09] {Threei} but I can't work after 7th
[12:09] {dino} then have 6
[12:10] {Threei} what do you think I did up to this minute?
[12:11] {dino} prxl? dk, was at bus stop
[12:12] {dino} too strong
[12:12] {Threei} didn't have that last spike yet
[12:12] {bruce} whats work vad?
[12:12] {dino} maybe break of .00
[12:13] {Threei} this is when I use my right hand to support the chin lest I hit keyboard with it, and left hand to keep eyelids open
[12:13] {Threei} it's hard work bruce
[12:13] {bruce} k - sounds like it
[12:13] {Threei} and 7th shot would make it practically impossible
[12:15] {bruce} I can imagine
[12:15] {bruce} after 7th the 8th is just too tempting
[12:15] {bruce} line em up
[12:15] {dino} de
[12:16] {Threei} I rarely am able to count those after 7th, my math abilities don't go that far even before all that hoopla
[12:16] {dino} had some orange stolie over the weekend, quite tasty
[12:16] {magoo} may close red
[12:17] {dino} prxl s .00
[12:17] {magoo} vad, whats the easier trade?
[12:17] {magoo} long or short iyo
[12:17] {Threei} overall? or you mean right now?
[12:17] {magoo} yes
[12:18] {Threei} OK... then my answer is yes as well
[12:18] {bruce} slap him mags
[12:19] {dino} fool the most by closing red, imo, fwiw, was
[12:19] {bruce} I'm a contrarian
[12:19] {bruce} so I'm going to say no
[12:21] {Threei} speaking of floating drek - even ZVUE is up 16 cents
[12:24] {bruce} mnst short on .33?
[12:24] {dptl} you gonna hold idix overnight ,Vad?
[12:24] {Threei} most likely
[12:24] {Threei} but don't let it impact your decision
[12:24] {Threei} our risk tolerance is different
[12:25] {dptl} daily looks good
[12:25] {Threei} and if it gaps to 52 tomorrow, I need to have someone to tease
[12:25] {Threei} for that opportunity I am even willing to be teased if it gaps to .03
[12:25] {dino} looks like its rolling bruce, i'm not in
[12:26] {bruce} me either
[12:26] {bruce} you don't need any reason at all to be teased vad
[12:27] {bruce} we're always happy to oblige
[12:27] {Threei} I know
[12:28] {Threei} CSIQ sudden happiness
[12:29] {Threei} if IDIX manages to digest these offers and finish over 5, my willingness will be reinforced
[12:33] {magoo} bidu 300
[12:33] {Threei} interestingly enough, made it with no help by market
[12:37] {Threei} so far so good IDIX
[12:37] {Threei} take 5.10, go to 5.50 tomorrow, and we are friends
[12:37] {Threei} or gap to 52 and we are friends forever
[12:38] {bruce} why settle for 52?
[12:38] {Threei} I am modest
[12:39] {bruce} we know that already
[12:40] {dino} prxl stopped -.26
[12:40] {bruce} thats why you cover your keyboard with a shawl
[12:41] {Threei} or alternatively, with a shovel
[12:42] {bruce} ah
[12:42] {bruce} I thought the shovel was for the nigerian dollars buried in your basement?
[12:42] {Threei} ORXL spike

[10:34] {dino} lol
[10:34] {dino} de would've worked bruce good spot
[10:41] {bruce} thanx dino
[10:41] {bruce} just got back
[10:42] {dino} ckec, vad i'm thinking short it
[10:42] {Threei} tempting
[10:42] {Threei} but still holding and even getting some buys
[10:42] {dino} the buyers are fools, lol
[10:43] {dino} setiously tho, i am waiting at 6.42
[10:43] {Threei} oh
[10:43] {dino} seriously
[10:43] {Threei} if it goes that high, I'll be with you :)
[10:45] {dino} thats why i am there, it shouldn't but anything can happen
[10:46] {Threei} STIMULUS PLAN: HOUSE SPEAKER PELOSI: 117M FAMILIES TO GET TAX REBATE CHECK UNDER PLAN, GSE LIMIT UP - WIRE CITES DOCUMENTS- FNM FRE conforming loan limts to rise to $625,00 from $417,000 for one year
[10:47] {bruce} aapl short?
[10:48] {Threei} you OK with stop over 134?
[10:48] {dino} for one year fnm? then crush 'em again?
[10:48] {magoo} i like aapl long
[10:49] {bruce} sure - can just adjust for size
[10:49] {dino} aapl been holding the support, imo, don't know about short
[10:49] {Threei} whole rescue plan starting with fed cuts feels like doomed exercise in futility to me, dino
[10:49] {Threei} and will backfire badly
[10:50] {bruce} a bear market is overdue
[10:50] {dino} avtr big bounce, thin toughy
[10:50] {bruce} we had that big rally hat went right thru summer last year
[10:51] {dino} agree 3i, except i think rate cuts would handle the whole problem....this other stuff is politics, election year here
[10:51] {dino} avtr a builder, tol, etc. they may bounce on this
[10:52] {dino} seems so
[10:52] {Threei} maybe careful and calcutated rate cuts... not this knee-jerk reaction to masrket fluctuations
[10:52] {dptl} same stop on idix ,Vad? .89
[10:52] {dino} yeah 2 bucks avtr, sheesh
[10:53] {Threei} we may have different timefreames on it dp... if it doesn't break today I am willing to hold it
[10:53] {Threei} if you aren't, trail to .94
[10:54] {dptl} ok
[10:54] {Threei} my stop is still at .84
[10:55] {Threei} and I was hesitant to move it there from .79 even :)
[10:55] {dino} agree 3i, but in the end none of it matters...markets will do what they want. time is the hell we all live in
[10:58] {Threei} the only difference I have is,
[10:58] {Threei} I don't believe they can improve things with their interventions
[10:58] {Threei} but I believe they can and do make things worse
[10:59] {Threei} you know what road is paved with best intentions...
[11:00] {dino} however, short term the easiest fix is to re-inflate, deflation is a far worse chaos risk at this point
[11:00] {dino} especially in election year
[11:00] {dino} enough tho. i am done
[11:00] {Threei} fork?
[11:01] {dino} lol
[11:01] {Threei} :)

[11:57] {Threei} I wouldn't want to cross real rambo either

[12:05] {Threei} I am so feelingless today...

[12:05] {bruce} have some wodka vad
[12:05] {Threei} and doesn't even set up for opposite directikon, just floats like piece of you know what in random currents
[12:08] {dino} how could we wrld stopped -.33
[12:09] {dino} i think bruce is right vad, have a shot
[12:09] {Threei} but I can't work after 7th
[12:09] {dino} then have 6
[12:10] {Threei} what do you think I did up to this minute?
[12:11] {dino} prxl? dk, was at bus stop
[12:12] {dino} too strong
[12:12] {Threei} didn't have that last spike yet
[12:12] {bruce} whats work vad?
[12:12] {dino} maybe break of .00
[12:13] {Threei} this is when I use my right hand to support the chin lest I hit keyboard with it, and left hand to keep eyelids open
[12:13] {Threei} it's hard work bruce
[12:13] {bruce} k - sounds like it
[12:13] {Threei} and 7th shot would make it practically impossible
[12:15] {bruce} I can imagine
[12:15] {bruce} after 7th the 8th is just too tempting
[12:15] {bruce} line em up
[12:15] {dino} de
[12:16] {Threei} I rarely am able to count those after 7th, my math abilities don't go that far even before all that hoopla

[12:18] {bruce} slap him mags
[12:19] {dino} fool the most by closing red, imo, fwiw, was

[12:24] {Threei} but don't let it impact your decision
[12:24] {Threei} our risk tolerance is different
[12:25] {dptl} daily looks good
[12:25] {Threei} and if it gaps to 52 tomorrow, I need to have someone to tease
[12:25] {Threei} for that opportunity I am even willing to be teased if it gaps to .03
[12:25] {dino} looks like its rolling bruce, i'm not in
[12:26] {bruce} me either
[12:26] {bruce} you don't need any reason at all to be teased vad
[12:27] {bruce} we're always happy to oblige

[12:37] {Threei} so far so good IDIX
[12:37] {Threei} take 5.10, go to 5.50 tomorrow, and we are friends
[12:37] {Threei} or gap to 52 and we are friends forever
[12:38] {bruce} why settle for 52?
[12:38] {Threei} I am modest
[12:39] {bruce} we know that already
[12:40] {dino} prxl stopped -.26
