[08:43] {hawkfan4} good morning
[08:43] {Threei} Good morning
[08:50] {dptl} good morning all
[08:50] {Threei} dp :)
[08:51] {Onix} Good morning all you hard-working people!
[08:51] {Threei} onix :)
[08:51] {Threei} that's flattering for us, very lazy types
[08:52] {hawkfan4} great, now i feel like i have to get out of my pj's :)
[08:52] {Threei} oh no
[08:52] {Onix} oh no, this scalping/trading business is very "hard" work ... well, difficult is the beter word I suppose
[08:52] {dino} gm all
[08:52] {Threei} that could start dangerous trend
[08:52] {Threei} dino :)
[08:53] {Threei} it's not really, Onix
[08:53] {Threei} or, I better put it this way
[08:53] {Threei} it is what you chose it to be
[08:54] {Threei} interestingly enough most sucessful are those who chose it to be fun
[08:54] {Onix} whaw ... that seems a long way off for me
[08:55] {Threei} follow the process, you'll get there
[08:55] {Onix} but I can see your point .. it could certainly be a lot of fun once you know what you're doing
[08:55] {Threei} yes, and the best part is:
[08:55] {Threei} it's not a rocket science
[08:56] {Threei} if there are obstacles on this path, those are barricades you erect within yourself
[08:56] {Threei} pure technicals aspects of trading ar fairly simple
[08:57] {Threei} unless you elect to mire yourself down in zillion of indicators and studies
[08:57] {Onix} have not read you latest part of the psychology on the blog, but I believe you 100%
[08:57] {Threei} as you can imagine, during my time in markets I've seen many failed traders,
[08:58] {Threei} so let me tell you this:
[08:58] {Threei} none of them failed because they couldn't get down technical aspects of trading
[08:58] {magoo} morning
[08:58] {Threei} literally, NONE
[08:58] {Threei} mags :)
[08:59] {Onix} so, reading the setups and the entering & exiting are not the worst of it?
[08:59] {Threei} some, not too may, failed because their personality was absolutely adverse to trading environment
[09:00] {Threei} most did because they never recognized where the major culprit is, or refused to do anything about it, or were too rigid to allow themselves to change
[09:00] {Threei} fact is:
[09:01] {Threei} your trading is reflection of who you are, because trading is just a part of life in general, and not a some kind of stand-alone application
[09:01] {magoo} so what was major culprit?
[09:02] {Threei} just like success in sports, in business, in relationships, and whatnot
[09:02] {Threei} requires interal changes in your mindset
[09:02] {Threei} so does success in trading
[09:02] {Threei} setups, entries, exits is secondary
[09:02] {Threei} and relatively simple part
[09:02] {Onix} so if you are a nervous, indecisive person, you will have a hard time in this environment?
[09:02] {Threei} not saying it's unnecessary
[09:03] {Threei} just saying it's not too complicated
[09:03] {Threei} ummm
[09:03] {Threei} you are oversimplifying it
[09:03] {Threei} it's all about how you apply it
[09:04] {Threei} nervous person can translate in careful trader
[09:04] {magoo} put up the blog link vad and oill go read it
[09:04] {Onix} OK I'll buy that one
[09:04] {Onix} thanks Vad
[09:04] {Threei} it's right on the homepage magoo
[09:05] {magoo} what is the major culprit?
[09:05] * Threei slaps magoo around a bit with a large trout
[09:05] {magoo} gonna make me go to home page??{lazy magioo}
[09:05] {fernp} gm all
[09:05] {Threei} fernp :)
[09:06] {GeoArb} gm
[09:07] {Threei} geo :)
[09:08] {esemde} good morning....
[09:09] {Threei} ese :)
[09:09] {esemde} had to reinstallreality trader program again this morning
[09:09] {esemde} bizarre
[09:10] {Threei} does whole program disappear or just a shortcut?
[09:10] {esemde} I think the program
[09:10] {esemde} because I have to reinstall
[09:11] {Threei} next time it happens, try to locate the program
[09:12] {esemde} will do
[09:12] {Threei} go to C, Program Files, look for RTC
[09:12] {Threei} if it's there, it's just a shortcut
[09:12] {Threei} and you can launch the program by clicking on mirc.32.exe
[09:12] {Threei} and restore shortcut by right click on it,
[09:13] {Threei} Create shortcut
[09:13] {esemde} the thing that comes up is the reality trader install connector
[09:14] {esemde} when i click on the destop icon it can't find the program
[09:14] {esemde} so i then just reinstall
[09:14] {bruce} didn't you just get computer cleaned for virus ese?
[09:14] {esemde} sure did...to the tune of $150.00
[09:15] {bruce} thought so
[09:15] {esemde} it works better now for sure
[09:15] {Threei} wait
[09:15] {bruce} yes - except now glitches with installed programs
[09:15] {Threei} so shortcut is there but it's not finding the program
[09:16] {Threei} then right click on shortcut, Properties
[09:16] {Threei} and edit target so it pints to that mirc.32.exe
[09:18] {esemde} OK done...we'll see what happens tomorrow
[09:18] {bruce} cna looks like possible reversal candidate this am dino
[09:20] {Threei} interesting read for later:
[09:20] {Threei} http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Global_Economy/JD30Dj02.html
[09:21] {Threei} and general comment for today's and tomorrow's trading:
[09:21] {Threei} this FOMC rate decision is somewhat different from couple previous ones
[09:21] {dino} ua might be a bit of overreaction
[09:21] {Threei} those were clear cut case,
[09:21] {Threei} everyone knew what to expect
[09:21] {Threei} and it was kind of in the cards
[09:22] {Threei} as we near the end of rate cuts, both Fed action and market view of it become less clear
[09:22] {Threei} that's why we see this swampy action
[09:23] {Threei} let's continue being on defensive, for these couple days and see what transpires after
[09:23] {Threei} being out of earnings season and done with Fed, it should become more clear
[09:27] {dino} watchiong gil, ua, enr

[10:09] {bruce} ltr long reversal candidate dino
[10:10] {Threei} IMO, you are fine qwith this entry ese
[10:10] {dino} watching it
[10:10] {Threei} .50 is safe reliable place for a stop,
[10:11] {Threei} with right size damage will be minimal
[10:11] {esemde} come on....come on....if it breaks .75 it should get to 11.00
[10:11] {Threei} and if it takes .75, your potential is quite lucrative
[10:11] {Threei} risk/reward wise it's a well-managed and fairly valid trade
[10:12] {esemde} tks
[10:13] {esemde} have a good instructor
[10:14] {Threei} not working
[10:14] {esemde} damn....stopped
[10:14] {Threei} quite possibly a shakeout, but who cares
[10:15] {Threei} there are just two states to any trade
[10:15] {esemde} -.15
[10:15] {Threei} works or doesn't
[10:15] {esemde} still a good trade though
[10:15] {Threei} it is
[10:15] {Threei} or was
[10:16] {esemde} yep
[10:16] {esemde} followed NDX to a tee
[10:16] {esemde} NDX was bumping up against 1926...it could have gone either way
[10:17] {Threei} magoo, you shorted RIMM off 124?
[10:17] {esemde} appears to be a shakeout
[10:18] {magoo} ah no..bidu off 367
[10:18] {magoo} covered 365.90
[10:18] {Threei} oh, I get it
[10:19] {Threei} RIMM is not enough adrenalin-laden for you
[10:19] {Threei} so you switched to BIDU
[10:19] {magoo} kind of same setup
[10:19] {magoo} can only handle 1 at time
[10:19] {magoo} same seup
[10:19] {magoo} setup
[10:19] {Threei} I'll wait for you to start trading GOOG to officially qualify you as adrenalin addict {G}
[10:23] {Threei} RIMM worth a long try if holding above .40
[10:24] {Threei} if loses, let it be for now
[10:25] {Threei} market sharp downtick, RIMM handled it rather well

[12:44] {bruce} mon long candidate dino - tricky one
[12:44] {Threei} pullback, return to the high,
[12:44] {Threei} now break of intraday high is needed to launch rally
[12:45] {Threei} ARBA is trying
[12:45] {Threei} if you go for it, stop under .30

[10:46] {bruce} insu - traditional break of high setup here vad
[10:48] {Threei} works too, to my amazement
[10:48] {bruce} sheesh - teleported though - no chance to enter
[10:50] {Threei} spread is not kosher
[10:51] {bruce} its a dino thinny
[10:51] {esemde} moved my stop on CREE to .83
[10:52] {dino} let me look then
[10:52] {Threei} HIGHER OIL PRICES WEIGHING UPON RECENT USD BULLISH SENTIMENT - DEALERS- Oil firmer on supply disruptions disruptions from Nigerian pipeline attacks, UK strike impact and geo-political factors that US Security fired warning shot at Iranian Boats in the Gulf on April 24th.
[10:53] {Threei} - A vessel contracted by the Navy in the Persian Gulf fired warning shots Thursday on two Iranian fast boats, FOX News has learned. The Westward Venture, a ship contracted by the Navy to carry military cargo to Kuwait, fired upon the boats Thursday after attempts to get Iranian boats' attention failed.
[10:53] {dino} that'll get their attention
[10:53] {esemde} i'll say...
[10:54] {dino} insu good report
[10:56] {Threei} OIH volaitlity is incredible today
[10:59] {bruce} vad - ifyou call up pbt does level one show you high and low for day?
[10:59] {Threei} not for listeds
[11:00] {bruce} k
[11:00] {Threei} use daily chart
[11:00] {bruce} yes - just wondering if laser was working right
[11:00] {Threei} point curos at today's candle, press left button, read high/low
[11:00] {bruce} pbt possible reversal here dino
[11:00] {Threei} cursor that was
[11:01] {bruce} got you - thanx fad
[11:01] {dino} vad, always cursing
[11:01] {Threei} oh well
[11:02] {bruce} lol - sorry about typing
[11:02] {dino} stop lod
[11:05] {dino} rimm feels like wants wed. bottom
[11:05] {bruce} can't blame vad for cursing - has to put up with magoo
[11:06] {dino} you should hear me then
[11:09] {esemde} out CREE .95 +.03
[11:10] {esemde} price is turning down
[11:16] {bruce} languahge not suitable for this room dino
[11:16] {dino} :)
[11:19] {dino} fstr stopped -.37
[11:19] {Threei} is this iranian thing getting any attention anywhere else but Fox?
[11:19] {Threei} I don't see it on CNN
[11:20] {Threei} or any other wires than one referring to Fox
[11:20] {esemde} signing off for a few minutes....
[11:21] {Threei} you'd think ness sinking market like this should be front and center
[11:21] {Threei} ness = news
[11:21] {patience} was reported on BNN News, but citing Fox
[11:21] {Threei} yeah, all I see refers to the same original source
[11:23] {Threei} if report appears about it being an unconfirmed rumor... I'll buy everything
[11:24] {fernp} US Security fires warning shots at Iran boats in Gulf (Briefing.com)
[11:24] {Threei} ty fernp
[11:25] {Threei} unclear if they got it independently or are citing the same Fox
[11:25] {fernp} citing Dow Jones news
[11:25] {Threei} ahha
[11:25] {Threei} that's more solid
[11:25] {Threei} ty
[11:26] {fernp} :)
[11:26] {dino} cme l 481.39 sm wide
[11:26] {Threei} I really hope it doesn't escalate to full blown military conflict
[11:26] {dino} rimm l 119.25 sm
[11:26] {bruce} not likely vad - that stuff happens all the time
[11:26] {bruce} boys playing with their toys
[11:27] {bruce} gotta gun - gotta use it
[11:27] {dino} it won't we are too stretched
[11:27] {Threei} well... very bad timing for this game
[11:27] {bruce} they sink a ship - then it gets serious
[11:27] {dino} happened about 2 weeks ago too
[11:27] {Threei} we are stretched... oil is already priced above economy's ability to handle it... inflation is already beyond bearable...
[11:28] {Threei} IMO, this war, if heaven forbid it starts, won't cause market rally like previous one dids
[11:29] {dino} of course, we are already in position. just need to paved and drill iraq
[11:29] {dino} paving it would take care of that nasty sand issue
[11:29] {Threei} VNDA?
[11:33] {dino} magoo just stopped by, slacker is taking today off
[11:34] {Threei} say hello to him
[11:34] {bruce} isis looking longagain dino
[11:34] {Threei} probably good choice, not much readable and tradeable so far
[11:34] * Chaeron slaps magoo with a large trout
[11:34] {dino} no mas, isis no mas

[11:44] {dino} bad prints at 28
[11:51] {esemde} i'm back....missed the Chaeron slap eh.....would have been highlight of the day...... rats...
[11:51] {Threei} I am torn a bit... on one hand, slapping laserdave on his appearance is always joyful occasion... on another, afraid of making it too routinish
[11:51] {GeoArb} not a fun day at all
[11:52] {esemde} tough decision
[11:52] {GeoArb} i think i am going to watch a kungfoomovie on netflix.... (instant gratification)
[11:53] {dino} lol
[11:55] {Threei} what can I say Geo... I am glad I backed off after first stop, haven't seen anything readable since then
[11:55] {GeoArb} yeah same here
[11:55] {GeoArb} took the first stop
[11:55] {Threei} some days are calling for defensive stance
[11:55] {GeoArb} and then have had the iron discipline of a kung foo master
[11:56] {GeoArb} ahh friday lots of drinking and barbecuing
[11:56] {bruce} only the discipline? thought you were a kung fu master geo
[11:56] {GeoArb} nah..... the wrong asian
[11:56] {GeoArb} lol

[11:59] {GeoArb} an inside range day for sure till now
[12:14] {bruce} wow - above zero outside again - would break out the shorts but snow expected again
[12:14] {Threei} oh boy...
[12:14] {Threei} HOUSE SPEAKER PELOSI: SEES A STRONG NEED FOR A SECOND FISCAL STIMULUS BILL, DISCUSSIONS WITH WHITE HOUSE HAVE BEGUN- House Republican leader Boener says talks are a step in the right direction.
[12:15] {bruce} sounds like desperation moves vad
[12:15] {Threei} this is beyond ridiculous
[12:15] {bruce} I think theyt should just send money to their friends to he north
[12:15] {bruce} then we can buy stuf and stimulate their economy for em
[12:15] {Threei} yup... at least we would cause more inflation on this side of the border, not on theirs
[12:15] {bruce} whatcould be fairer?
[12:17] {Threei} also, on per capita basis it would be much more effective
[12:17] {dino} can you tell it's an election year?
[12:17] {Threei} since our entire population is less than just Califirnia
[12:18] {Chaeron} that much?
[12:19] {bruce} l aet 43.36 - stop 8c

[13:20] {bruce} hk short candidate- prefer a small long retace before breaking below .72
[13:33] {Threei} if market proceeds to make new lows, it's going to be first real follow through in weeks
[13:35] {Threei} in l,ine with recent patterns, I'd rather expect 30 points rally now, lol
[13:52] {Threei} 5 points so far... 25 left
[13:53] {dino} same thinking here
[13:54] {markweb} no thinking here:(

[14:01] {Chaeron} noone else?
[14:01] {Threei} I would prefer pullback entry... but there is no real techincal read on its support/resistance levels here
[14:02] {Threei} pure market following, and market is very likely to run about 10 points more

[12:36] {Threei} how can one refuse the request for money that starts with nicests words: "dearest ..."
[12:36] {dino} indeed
[12:36] {Threei} the very thought that someone could consider me "dearest" makes me open my wallet

[12:59] {Threei} as if it wasn't enough that I am sooo removed from all the famous libraries

[13:06] {dino} bingo dji
[13:07] {dino} strange, lots of stuff down big
[13:10] {Threei} tough read here guys
[13:10] {Threei} staying on a sideline
[13:10] {Threei} market is pregnant with sharp move, and sirection is anyone's guess
[13:10] {Threei} direction too
[13:14] {dino} gibberish huh?
[13:15] {Threei} what did you call me?
[13:15] {dino} lol
[13:16] {Threei} slapped by raven, called names by dino AND living in area removed from all the sources of knowledge
[13:16] {Threei} my life goes down the drain...
[13:16] {GeoArb} who said presedential libraries were knowledge?
[13:16] {GeoArb} google
[13:16] {patience} guess all you can do is sit on the dock, with butter and garlic and fresh crab
[13:17] {Threei} google doesn't help much when you can't read
[13:17] {GeoArb} i just like the jelly bean portrait
[13:17] {Threei} books on the other hand provide protection from prying eyes if you place them (books) strategically, so they cover your closed eyes
[13:18] {Threei} the only thing you need to take of is not to keep them upside down
[13:18] {Threei} that could be a clue
[13:34] {Threei} feels like RIMM short will be a play soon
[13:34] {Threei} need more confidence that NQ is done rallying
[13:34] {Threei} so far, 50/50
[13:34] {magoo} aapl too
[13:37] {Threei} OK... can we have a bounce now please,
[13:37] {Threei} with RIMM staying under 124.20
[13:38] {Threei} but coming close enough to it for a stop to be narrow enough
[13:41] {Threei} in
[13:42] {Threei} .31 stop
[13:42] {Threei} didn't take long eh
[13:44] {Threei} second try

[13:47] {Threei} sheesh
[13:47] {Threei} sigh
[13:48] {Threei} back to sleep
[13:52] {dino} cap't cavm spike
[13:52] {Threei} US TREASURY SEC PAULSON: CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC ON GSE REFORM FOLLOWING MEETING WITH FNM, FRE AND LAWMAKERS
[13:55] {dino} shake 'n bake
[14:02] {Threei} US TREASURY SECRETARY PAULSON CITES PROGRESS IN CALMING FINANCIAL MARKETS, FOCUS INCREASINGLY ON STIMULATING ECONOMY
[14:02] {Threei} - Likes part of Rep Frank's FHA bill, no veto threat from President Bush, supports idea of having FHA back troubled loans after write-down.
[14:02] {Threei} - US economy has slowed considerably, faces headwinds from high oil prices. Cites progress in calming markets, says focus will be increasingly on stimulating the economy.
[14:02] {Threei} - Aiming to minimize spillover from market turmoil into the economy, but it can't be avoided entirely.
[14:02] {Threei} - Risk is being repriced, astute investors are putting captial to work in distressed markets.
[14:03] {Threei} - Financial markets, not govenrments, best set benchmark values for illiquid securities.
[14:03] {Threei} - Won't forecast when the turmoil might end, some markets still not operating normally.
[14:03] {Threei} my personal read is:
[14:04] {Threei} We seem to be succeeding in postponing the crisis and making our kids or grandkids face it
[14:04] {Threei} and, since it's going to be their problem, we care not
[14:05] {dino} isn't that the governmental way?
[14:05] {hawkfan4} {==and no kids, so that goes double for me ;})
[14:06] {dino} promise the world, don't worry about paying for it
[14:06] {Threei} reminds me a wise hero of some Far East parables who agreed to teach a donkey to speak, accepting hefty amount from shah; money was supposed to sustain him for 20 years which was the term for a donky to demonstrate speaking skills
[14:07] {dino} i have to laugh, the $600 rebates hilary and obama are taking credit for, but at the same time they are going to raise all taxes
[14:07] {Threei} when asked how he was going to keep the promise he said, "come on, in 20 years one of three will be dead - me, shah or donkey"
[14:08] {Threei} JPM
[14:08] {Threei} TO SUSPEND TAKING FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN APPLICATIONS
[14:08] {Threei} why?
[14:08] {dino} so, we give the average guy $600 next month, but next year he pays $4k more in taxes
[14:09] {Threei} isn't credit crunch defeated?
[14:09] {Threei} or JPM made not enough on BSC deal?
[14:09] {dino} wants another deal perhaps
[14:10] {dino} needs funds for it
