Session Time: Wed Jul 23 00:00:00 2008

[08:16] {Threei} Good morning early birds
[08:16] {tomg} good morning
[08:16] {Threei} tom :)
[08:17] {Threei} who is up for super risky pre-market play, look to buy WB at 16.80 break
[08:17] {tomg} stop?
[08:17] {Threei} under 16.60
[08:18] {tomg} ok
[08:18] {Threei} again... risky as hell
[08:18] {tomg} what route you use pre-market?
[08:19] {Threei} ISLD
[08:19] {tomg} ok
[08:19] {Threei} make sure you have route out checked

[08:20] {tomg} .82
[08:21] {Threei} hawk listened to all "super risky" rant and grabbed whole 1K shares
[08:22] {Threei} [WB] Wachovia Corp Heard on the Street comments on the outlook for Wachovia - WSJ
[08:22] {Threei} - The article notes that Wachovia's Q2 earnings report may suggest that the company can earn enough money in the upcoming quarters to offset its mortgage losses.
[08:22] {Threei} - The WSJ cites the expectations that Wachovia won't need to raise additional dilutive capital as the catalyst for its share price gain following its earning report.
[08:22] {Threei} - The WSJ questions Wachovia's pledge that it won't need to raise more capital because problems will weigh on the bank for several more quarters.
[08:22] {Threei} - The bullish argument for Wachovia is that the company will be able to earn $16B in annualized core earnings and that these earnings will offset the company's future loan loss provisions.
[08:22] {Threei} -However, the bullish scenario could be challenged if the bank's core earnings are below $4B/quarter or if the company increases its credit loss expectations again.
[08:22] {Threei} - The article also notes how Bank of America and Wachovia were relatively optimistic about their outlooks for the end of 2008 and 2009, while JP Morgan and American Express discussed concerns about credit problems among prime borrowers.
[08:22] {tomg} route out INET , vad?

[09:48] {Threei} ugh
[09:48] {Threei} this one got away
[09:50] {Threei} LEH just had to kill setup before triggering and working
[09:55] {Threei} US TSY PAULSONM SAYS GSE SENDS STRONG MESSAGE TO MARKETS
[09:55] {peterg} LEH bounce ?
[09:56] {Threei} overall yes
[09:56] {Threei} but it shakes out so regularly, I am getting self-conscious about calling eright stop on it
[09:57] {Threei} it's almost like:
[09:57] {Threei} define traditional setuip on, with trigger and stop,
[09:57] {Threei} then wait for it to drop beloe support, invalidating the setup
[09:57] {Threei} and buy on that drop
[09:57] {Threei} which is nice and all but in practice makes it highly discretionary,
[09:58] {Threei} no way to call the entry other than on pure feel
[10:00] {peterg} bugged out too soon, made a nickel not a quarter
[10:07] {Threei} USO/UAUA pair qworking nicely for scalps
[10:09] {Threei} UAUA non-shortable today... was yesterday
[10:09] {hawkfan4} i have it available
[10:10] {Threei} can play it both ways off USO moves then
[10:10] {Threei} just wait for pronounced move and trade UAUA if it gives delay for entry
[10:10] {Threei} watch FNM for scalp off pullback to 15.50 area
[10:12] {Threei} if markwet sp;ikes, then .85 break trigger with stop under .70
[10:13] {Threei} break invalidated
[10:13] {dino} late post v l .00, sodetracked

[10:14] {dino} y
[10:14] {dino} biib drop
[10:14] {Threei} nice one
[10:14] {dino} 'too fast
[10:15] {dino} stopped .30, +.30
[10:17] {Threei} not sure if FNM was attainable on pullback closer to .60, got distracted for a second
[10:17] {Threei} looks like wants to break 16 and jump
[10:17] {Threei} broke
[10:18] {Threei} and jumped
[10:18] {peterg} falling
[10:19] {Threei} UAUA strengthened
[10:19] {Threei} didn't even retreat with USO bounce

[10:23] {Threei} "slow summer action" eh?
[10:25] {Threei} sharp drop USO
[10:25] {Threei} I guess traders reposition ahead of numbers
[10:27] {Threei} OK, backing off for the next 10 min

[10:37] {Threei} UAUA gave beaituful delay vs USO
[10:37] {Threei} 10 was easy to get
[10:37] {Threei} anyone grabbed a play?

[15:14] {Chaeron} sure.... you shouldn't have gotten the loan in the first place is the prosecution's argument... they say that they accepted and pushed through bad loans with high risk anyway... I'm not agreeing by any means... just giving you the other side's arguement
[15:14] {dino} only in america
[15:15] {dino} and if they refiused you the loan, they would sue too
[15:15] {Chaeron} it's just sue-happy country
[15:15] {Threei} yeah, I gathered that would be their argument... it's just that I can't fathom it :)
[15:15] {Chaeron} well, can you fathom that McDonalds gets sued for serving coffee that is hot?
[15:15] {Threei} next step is, "I decieved you, now I will sue you for trusting me"
[15:16] {Chaeron} I LIKE IT! Let's get our law degrees!
06[15:16] * Chaeron is now known as Chaeron, Esq
[15:18] {Chaeron} lose money in the market guys and we'll sue to get it back... you shouldn't have had the danger of losing $$$ even tho you were fully aware you could have... who's my first client?
[15:19] {dino} well, that is happening now w/fnm, fre
[15:19] {Threei} and let's sue brokers for letting our orders through while we are at it
[15:19] {dino} gov't backing up private buyers of stock and debt

[10:30] {Threei} with oil dropping, I'd expect ROYL to pick up some strength

[12:27] {Chaeron} .
[12:31] {Threei} WB, will get interested if drops to 13.5 at least
[12:34] {Threei} CSIQ sharp drop
[12:37] {dptl} qlgc?
[12:38] {Threei} I wouldn't
[12:38] {Threei} thick, slow
[12:38] {Threei} not what you want in lunch time
[12:38] {dptl} ok ty
[12:45] {Threei} market confused itself with all the morning jumps, decided to sit quietly and ponder next move
[12:46] {Threei} wow CSIQ
[12:47] {Threei} feels like quick drop to 28 or just under should provide bounce
[12:53] {Threei} too optimistic
[12:59] {Threei} UAUA .50 break for a scalp if holding above .35
[13:05] {dino} xmsr
[13:06] {dino} no merger
[13:08] {Threei} WSJ: 1 FCC MEMBER VOTES AGAINST MERGER WITH SIRI, VOTE NOW STANDS AS 2-1
[13:08] {Threei} - Note two members have yet to vote
[13:09] {dino} ahh
[13:21] {dino} out ma 270.75, +2.50 yesterday
[13:22] {hawkfan4} sweet
[13:22] {dino} lucky, gapped down hard off of amex
[13:37] {kazaam} wow, that is some disciplined sideways action
[13:39] {Threei} very much so
[13:43] {dino} sm l cetv .65, stop .29
[14:07] {Threei} 7.49 short scalp trigger for UAUA
[14:07] {Threei} if stays under .60
[14:13] {dptl} covered .38 uaua ty
[14:14] {Threei} :)
[14:14] {jmb} thanks Vad
[14:14] {Threei} welcome
[14:15] {Threei} just when everyone though I was in that monastery already eh?
[14:16] {Threei} CSIQ one more quick drop is coming
[14:17] {Threei} happened while I was typing actually, lol
[14:21] {Threei} absense of shorts on financials is inconvinient
[14:21] {Threei} look at 1 min FNM
[14:21] {Threei} was clean short setup at .50 break
[14:23] {hawkfan4} was pretty
[14:23] {Threei} if I were them, I'd do this ban differently
[14:24] {Threei} short to your heart content as long as you cover within same day
[14:24] {Threei} would bring net neutral result on day to day basis, and would provide a lot more liquidity
[14:25] {Threei} esentially stabilizing the price, and as a bonus providing serious fuel for upward move in case of good news
[14:25] {Chaeron} hmmm... Vad angling for head of SEC
[14:25] {Threei} I am more effective in a "behind the curtain consultant" role
[14:26] {Chaeron} as long as they pay you well
[14:26] {Threei} well?
[14:26] {Threei} nope
[14:26] {Threei} very well
[14:26] {Threei} that may do it
[14:27] {Chaeron} :)
[14:37] {Threei} watch USO and UAUA
[14:37] {Threei} now hat UAUA bounced back into resiatance .50, USO tuern up will send it back down
[14:38] {Threei} can't call it as a trigger since it's more of relation than exact numbers
[14:38] {Threei} so if you understand the idea of a trade, try to find it
[14:38] {Threei} if not, ask
[14:38] {Threei} and I will do my best to pretend I understand what I just said
[14:39] {dptl} lol
[14:40] {dino} oh ohh, forgot order, s sm skyw .65
[14:40] {dino} stop hod
[14:43] {Threei} accordingly... IF USO drops, .51 will become UAUA long trigger
[14:43] {Threei} ummm... a bit late
[14:45] {dino} out cetv .65, +1.00
[14:46] {Threei} beauty
[14:46] {dino} ty
[14:46] {Threei} don't tell magoo I called you that
[14:46] {Chaeron} jealous?
[14:47] {Threei} I don't want to find out
[14:47] {dino} lol
[14:47] {hawkfan4} lol
[14:48] {Threei} watch LEH here
[14:48] {Threei} if NQ spikes sharply through 1810 LEH will jump too
[14:49] {Threei} it often gives little delay for entry when market makes sharp move
[14:49] {Threei} quite scalpable
[14:50] {Threei} feels like market spike is coming
[14:52] {Threei} 1810 break will launch it
[14:55] {dptl} laser gonna restart again
[14:56] {laserdave1} to ensure proper data they need to restart laser again
[14:56] {laserdave1} they are upgrading the server tonight
[14:56] {Threei} 14:56:18 ADMIN7 --} (All): This is an emergency issue, we are upgrading the server tonight, should not happen tomorrow.
[15:00] {Threei} here we go NQ
[15:04] {Threei} out LEH +.15
[15:05] {hawkfan4} nice, out +14
[15:05] {Threei} :)
[15:07] {Threei} jeez WB
[15:09] {Threei} this is one wierd market today
[15:09] {Threei} I believe we handled it very well
[15:10] {Threei} found a few good ones, avoided getting trapped into sudden changes
[15:10] {Threei} just one rinse
[15:10] {Threei} but heck... to be rinsed by LEH is like medal of honor
[15:10] {hawkfan4} very wierd day, herky jerky
[15:12] {Threei} let's sit out this up/donw jerkiness
[15:13] {Threei} LEH stabilized, oil is not impacting the day right now anymore,
[15:13] {Threei} WB is the only active spot
[15:14] {Threei} and we have WM reporting after close, right?
[15:14] {Threei} good enough reason not to touch WB right now
[15:15] {hawkfan4} yes, WM after close today
[15:25] {Threei} WB is likely to pullback hard now
[15:25] {Threei} which should provide bounce for a scalp
[15:26] {Threei} 15.5 - 15.7 area will get me interested
[15:26] {Threei} 15 will get me excited
[15:26] {Threei} 14 - delighted... 13 - depressed
[15:26] {Threei} just like this market
[15:28] {Threei} no pullback... oh well
[15:31] {peterg} short WB?
[15:31] {Threei} I don't think you can
[15:31] {Threei} test it by 100 shares at 17
[15:31] {peterg} Doesn't it itch to lose some weight?
[15:31] {Threei} I am sure you will get "not available"
[15:32] {Threei} it's one of financials put on "speacial no short" list
[15:32] {peterg} 200 at 16.05
[15:32] {Threei} why that low?
[15:32] {Threei} test is done away from market
[15:33] {Threei} stock pulled bacxxk about 70 cents, it's a lot of chasing
[15:35] {peterg} caved and bailed, throwing money to the winds
[15:35] {peterg} now it works
[15:35] {peterg} maybe
[15:35] {Threei} why not wait for bounce to short?
[15:36] {peterg} when bounce"
[15:36] {peterg} ?
[15:36] {Threei} closest resistance is 16.20 area now
[15:38] {Threei} WB is available
[15:38] {Threei} strange
[15:39] {Threei} watching for market turn to short
[15:39] {Threei} too spikey...
[15:43] {Threei} OK, short half lot
[15:43] {Threei} .65 stop
[15:43] {Threei} no worky
[15:45] {Threei} quite an amazing recovery in the market and financials
[15:45] {Threei} second try
[15:46] {Threei} got .72
[15:47] {Threei} out .45
[15:47] {Threei} got that stop back
[15:47] {peterg} you got WB at .72?
[15:47] {Threei} and covered at .45
[15:47] {peterg} masterful
[15:47] {peterg} envy
[15:48] {Threei} this is "multipe try" kind of trade
[15:48] {Threei} keep it to half lot and keep stops tight
[15:48] {peterg} disincentive on my platform is fixed price commissioin
[15:48] {Threei} if not so close to end of day, would try to hold for more drop
[15:48] {Threei} but with 10 min left, just satisfied with getting back first stop
[15:49] {Threei} yikes
[15:49] {Threei} per share price is the way to go unless you are trading 10-20K lots
[15:49] {peterg} working on it

[09:10] {pita} gm everyone
[09:11] {Threei} pita :)

[09:19] {Threei} fern :)
[09:26] {dino} gm all
[09:26] {Threei} dino :)
[09:26] {Threei} 10 is interesting level for FRE
[09:27] {Threei} significant support in the past, turned into important resistance later on,
[09:27] {Threei} if can hold today siglas a lot of strength for further rally
[09:27] {Threei} signals
[09:29] {Threei} if you took FNM, feel free to grab "warm-up scalp"
[09:31] {Threei} FRE .21 long, stop under 10
[09:32] {Threei} fast swing to 1:1 and back
[09:33] {Threei} FNM is considerably stronegr
[09:36] {Threei} FNM .56 half lot long if not losing .40 anymore
[09:38] {Threei} over 1:1
[09:39] {Threei} touched under .40 briefly, hard to tell whether it was invalidation or just a fluke... kinf of discretionary

[09:39] {Threei} if you took it, get out here
[09:39] {kazaam} leh broke 20.20
[09:39] {Threei} dino :)
[09:39] {dino} i know, don't swing
[09:39] {Threei} LEH went too deep on pullback for my taste...
[09:40] {Threei} but with FNM continuing , probably worth a try
[09:40] {Threei} sheesh FNM
[09:41] {Threei} BAC
[09:41] {Threei} CEO: DOES NOT SEE US ECONOMY SLIDING INTO A NEGATIVE GROWTH SCENARIO FOR A LONG DURATION OF TIME, CFC ACQUISITION ON TRACK, ADDING TO PROFITS - CONF CALL

[09:45] {hawkfan4} out
[09:45] {dino} chic
[09:46] {Threei} this endless string of green bars is scary looking
[09:46] {Threei} when it ends, it derops so violently, beter be out before that
[09:46] {Threei} "sell when you can, not when you have to"
[09:46] {Threei} look at that
[09:47] {Threei} over 50 cents drop in one gasp
[09:47] {Threei} aren't you glad to give up last 5 cents and guard yourself against this
[09:47] {hawkfan4} you bet
[09:48] {Threei} reentry time is coming
[09:48] {Threei} ugh, late
[09:48] {Threei} don't chase
[09:49] {kazaam} possible BAC wedge
[09:50] {Threei} somewhat listless chart... can't tell on BAC, sorry

[10:16] {Threei} .84 - .85 long if stays above .75
[10:21] {kazaam} everybody went to sleep kinda early this morning
[10:21] {Threei} you assume someone actually ever woke up
[10:21] {Threei} that's not a given
[10:21] {kazaam} ahhh, mistake number one
[10:22] {dino} sm l aste .92, stop .59
[10:24] {dino} etm s .92 stop hod

[10:34] {dino} nope, stopped
[10:38] {Threei} getting interested in FNM again
[10:39] {Threei} worth a try as close to .50 as possible, can take a few attempts
[10:41] {Threei} ALTH
[10:41] {Threei} .50 break long
[10:41] {Threei} aww

[10:42] {Threei} anyone found FNM entry?
[10:44] {hawkfan4} missed it
[10:44] {fernp} no. too fast
[10:48] {kazaam} vad, any read on SII?
[10:48] {Threei} 85 is obvious support
[10:48] {Threei} worth a try off it
[10:48] {Threei} just a bit too volatile to rely on exact numbers,
[10:48] {Threei} gotta o with fuzzy "areas"
[10:49] {Threei} WB
[10:49] {Threei} .51 long if stays above .35

[10:52] {Chaeron} Good morning all
[10:52] {Threei} chaeron :)
[10:54] {Threei} anyone took ALTH on pullback to .50?
[10:56] {dino} mancehester securities and alerian capital assume control of sglp
[10:56] {Threei} I wish I understood what that means :)
[11:03] {Threei} ALTH is pregnant with runner status
[11:04] {Threei} not for chasing here though
[11:05] {Threei} how did I miss CLNE 13 break
[11:06] {kazaam} BRL breakout?
[11:06] {kazaam} oh, i guess i missed it
[11:06] {Threei} Geo is in it from earlier
[11:07] {Threei} I think from way earlier
[11:07] {Threei} 64 or so?
[11:08] {Threei} LEH half lot long 20.03
[11:08] {Threei} stop under .90
[11:09] {Threei} .80 is better pronounced support but I would like to keep it to scalping mostly at this point
[11:10] {GeoArb} sitting in it from .30.... in and out of office
[11:11] {Threei} grrrr MYGN
[11:11] {Threei} rinsed
[11:14] {Threei} OSTK small shares short .55

[11:17] {Threei} feel free to cover as yuou see fit
[11:22] {fernp} excelent Vad. TY
[11:23] {Threei} :)
[11:23] {Threei} power of momentum is amazing... it's down so much over last days and still drops
[11:24] {Threei} FNM... time to try it again, may take multiple attempts
[11:24] {Threei} .75 with stop under .60 first try
[11:26] {Threei} if stopped next support is .50
[11:26] {Threei} sheesh OSTK
[11:26] {Threei} anyone had mor patience than I did?
[11:27] {kazaam} wish i got in, took a bathroom break and missed LVS as well
[11:27] {GeoArb} too much info
[11:27] {Threei} lol
[11:28] {kazaam} hehe
[11:28] {GeoArb} long enuff break to miss not one but 2 plays !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[11:28] {GeoArb} :)
[11:30] {Threei} ah come on FNM, isn't $3 pullback from high deserving an entry?
[11:30] {Threei} apparently not
[11:34] {pita} later everyone
[11:35] {Threei} take care pita
[11:35] {dino} aste stop to .32
[11:35] {dino} etm bstop to b/e
[11:39] {Threei} LEH bounce time very soon
[11:40] {Threei} hard to pin;point exact entry
[11:40] {Threei} if you get a feel for it, great
[11:40] {Threei} if not, stay away
[11:40] {dino} out aste .63 +.71
[11:40] {Threei} wtg
[11:40] {dino} ty
[11:41] {dino} took awhile, but hey
[11:41] {dino} etm to .72
[11:46] {dino} etm stopped/cov .73 +.19
[11:57] {Threei} if FNM goes as low as 15 I will buy without second thought
[11:57] {Threei} (I think)
06[11:58] * Threei slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
06[11:58] * Chaeron slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[12:00] {dino} ma gap fill
[12:01] {Threei} one more leg down probably, for both market and FNM, and bounce should develop
[12:04] {Threei} in FNM{ try #1
[12:04] {Threei} stop 0.09
[12:07] {dino} v sm l ma .25 risky, v wide
[12:09] {Threei} ok market, enough games... time to move
[12:11] {Threei} FNM needs to sell under 15
[12:11] {Threei} will be impossible to call in time
[12:12] {Threei} same thing as before - if you get a read on it, go for it
[12:12] {Threei} if not, stay on a sideline
[12:27] {kazaam} what a mess
[12:27] {Threei} Monday... hangover...
[12:28] {Threei} http://realitytrader.com/vad/Mondays-Suck-Video.wmv
[12:28] {dino} grmn

[12:33] {hawkfan4} .93
[12:33] {Threei} beauty... wtg

[12:36] {dino} gj
[12:37] {hawkfan4} thx dino
[12:39] {dino} :)
[12:45] {dptl} mdco?
[12:45] {Threei} why not
[12:45] {Threei} chart's right, market is moving
[12:46] {dptl} l .21
[12:46] {dptl} stop under .06?
[12:47] {Threei} or under 21
[12:47] {Threei} both make sense
[12:47] {dptl} ok ty
[13:02] {dptl} sun?
[13:03] {Threei} ywes, not a cloud here
[13:04] {dptl} .40 break with stop under .20
[13:04] {Threei} .40 if holding above .25, IMO
[13:04] {dptl} ok ty
[13:04] {Threei} lunch time... things are less eactive
[13:06] {Chaeron} Ben Franklin summed it up well. In times of stress, the three best things to have are an old dog, an old wife and ready money. How right he was.
[13:07] {Chaeron} ooops sorry
[13:07] {Threei} why then do all those people with ready money leave old dog to old wife and go for new wife
[13:08] {Chaeron} lol
[13:08] {GeoArb} lol
[13:08] {Chaeron} fools
[13:08] {dptl} mir?
[13:08] {GeoArb} thats in times of less stress
[13:08] {Threei} MIR intraday looks nice, but there is .81 resistance from yesterday, very close
[13:09] {dptl} yes.
[13:11] {dptl} grabbed 10c mir
[13:11] {Threei} went through both
[13:11] {Threei} nice one
[13:11] {dptl} offering .37 mdco
[13:12] {Threei} dptl, the lunch time money machine
[13:12] {dptl} :) trying
[13:14] {dptl} should i keep same stop on mdco?
[13:14] {Threei} it formed new support at .15
[13:14] {Threei} so, either .14 if you are strict
[13:14] {Threei} or .09 to pad it a bit
[13:14] {dptl} thats what i think
[13:16] {dptl} sun held.25
[13:18] {dptl} got .42 sun
[13:26] {dptl} out mdco +.16
[13:26] {Threei} :)
[13:27] {dptl} :) now if you can kick that sun:)
[13:29] {Threei} good enough?
[13:29] {dptl} lol a bit more may be or that will be pushing
[13:30] {Threei} it will... but I'll try... just for you
[13:31] {dptl} thanx Vad
[13:31] {dptl} offering .57
[13:37] {dptl} hmm..amazing ...nice kick Vad out .57 thx lol
[13:38] {Threei} welcome sir
[13:38] {Threei} just ask
[13:38] {dptl} :)
[13:50] {dptl} nrg?
[13:53] {Threei} .26 is obvious trigger but I don't see defined support for stop placement for now
[13:54] {dptl} sun again
[13:55] {dptl} yes same here can't find stop for nrg
[13:55] {Threei} see if COST forms double bottom
[13:55] {Threei} .91 would be long if holding above .70
[14:00] {dino} i was watching cost too
[14:01] {Threei} cool, let's name the thing for move to 70.50
[14:01] {dino} ok
[14:01] {Threei} name = nail
[14:04] {Threei} lost support in validating double bottom
[14:04] {Threei} invalifating
[14:04] {Threei} ok, whatever

[09:19] {Threei} - Various alternatives include raising additional equity, debt capital or the filing of a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
[09:25] {dino} as if nobody knew yesterday, sheesh
[09:26] {dino} meaning, somebody knew
[09:27] {Threei} isn't it remarkable that market is capable of sshrugging off GOOG miss
[09:27] {Threei} just shows how much it is about financials and oil right now
[09:28] {GeoArb} also options expiration wierdness?
[09:28] {Threei} probably, yes
[09:29] {Threei} LEH is either .80 break of pullback to .40... really can't tell which entry is better
[09:31] {Threei} pullback that was... very fast, not an easy entry
[09:31] {Threei} anyone got it?

[09:42] {Threei} beat mine by 3 cents
[09:42] {Threei} FRE, if sells fast into 8.20
[09:43] {Threei} maybe wishful thinking
[09:43] {Threei} but let's see
[09:43] {Threei} 8.40 is support too but something tells me it's not going to hol
[09:44] {Threei} "something" was right
[09:45] {Threei} not sure it can go as far as 8.20
[09:45] {dino} ostk
[09:45] {Threei} but glad I didn't take 8.40, struggling here
[09:45] {Threei} if it goes from here so be it
[09:45] {Threei} FNM
[09:46] {Threei} .50 closest support
[09:46] {Threei} in, stop .39
[09:47] {Threei} trailing to .49 if takes .65
[09:47] {Threei} trailed
[09:49] {Threei} maybe getting greedy, but heck... my risk is about 10 cents here
[09:49] {magoo} i dont wanna miss this exoit..where u thinking?

[09:59] {Threei} too much is going on
[09:59] {peterg} Sovereign wealth funds, Dark Pools
[09:59] {Threei} and the scale of happenings is way too big for the markets to just go on vacation
[09:59] {Threei} dark pools - I don't know what the fuss is about
[10:00] {Threei} I don't see it as something significant
[10:00] {peterg} nice place for fear to locate
[10:01] {peterg} 92.3% of news is fear
[10:01] {magoo} [09:59] {Threei} and the scale of happenings is way too big for the markets to just go on vacation

[10:22] {Threei} SQNM tries the high again even as market retreats
[10:22] {Threei} it's volatile one
[10:23] {Threei} that's why I wanted small shares - it acts similarly to days when it posts big gains so I want to be able to hold through it's swings

[10:24] {Threei} MER stop to .85
[10:27] {dptl} stop under .60 now sqnm?

[08:30] {Threei} JUN HOUSING STARTS: 1.07M V 960KE; BUILDING PERMITS: 1.09M V 965KE
[08:34] {cosmo} EBAY: eBay's Q2 was in line with expectations, but Q3 guidance is weak, and will disappoint; shares are down 6% after hours. Sales increased 20% year-over-year, and net income jumped 22%, aided by share buybacks.
[08:35] {cosmo} off 11% now
[08:35] {Threei} you'd think in wseakening economy Ebay should benefit
[08:36] {cosmo} hmmm
[08:36] {Threei} The Financial Times noted overnight that some government funds have cut their USD exposure.
[08:36] {Threei} that's interesting
[08:37] {Threei} if they cut it someone's increased it, right?
[08:40] {cosmo} ...or will increase at some point
[08:40] {cosmo} tipping point...

[09:59] {Threei} notice,
[09:59] {Threei} you start profitng at times when the world is hurting
[09:59] {brian3579} small but its a start
[09:59] {Threei} this is very significant
[09:59] {Threei} it means you are not a part of crowd anymore
[10:00] {Threei} you move to the smart money side
[10:00] {brian3579} your books and help and hard work mad the difference
[10:00] {brian3579} made
[10:00] {Threei} JULY PHILADELPHIA FED: -16.3 V -15E
[10:01] {Threei} difference is made by you... I provided the necessary resources but nothing works by itself
[10:01] {Threei} - Prices Paid: 75.6 v 69.3 prior (highest reading since 1980)
[10:02] {Threei} - Employment: -7.3 v -6.9 prior
[10:02] {dino} uso, oih rally
[10:02] {Threei} yeah... USO needs to come down again to provide fuel for market
[10:02] {Threei} as long as USO remains strong, it's a drag
[10:05] {Threei} I'd say, we picked exactly right moment to get on sideline
[10:06] {Threei} very tempted by LEH off 18
[10:06] {Threei} want to see market start recovering though
[10:06] {dino} dwsn sm wide l .00
[10:07] {magoo} pretty nasty selloff there
[10:07] {Threei} if I miss it, I always have dave to slap
06[10:07] * magoo slaps laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[10:07] {Threei} market is still selling
[10:08] {Threei} whoa USO
[10:08] {dino} oih +6
[10:16] {laserdave1} nice move down
[10:16] {laserdave1} wow
[10:16] {laserdave1} that was crazy
[10:17] {magoo} 100 sh long CME .19 VERY RISKY
[10:17] {Threei} anyone took LEH off 14?
[10:17] {magoo} was watching
[10:17] {magoo} missed
[10:17] {Threei} perfect hit on a support level just when market started rebounding
[10:18] {Threei} the only problem was,
[10:18] {Threei} it jumped off support so rapidly
[10:18] {Threei} you had to just take it on a blind faith that it would hold
[10:29] {dino} sglp
[10:31] {Threei} MF LIFTS GLOBAL GROWTH FORECAST TO 4.1% ROM 3.7% PRIOR
[10:31] {Threei} IMF
[10:31] {magoo} stopped CME -200 bux

[10:37] {Threei} + .18 peter?
[10:37] {Threei} sounds like you chased it quite high
[10:37] {GeoArb} the first 15 mins i discard as garbage
[10:37] {peterg} this setup is too slow
[10:38] {peterg} my "free" software from fidelity
[10:38] {Threei} OK, this is pure danger
[10:38] {Threei} you will pay dearly for that free setup
[10:38] {peterg} too clunky to use, executions are good and timely, but the fooling around to set up the order is tedious and studpid
[10:39] {Threei} ask dave for demo
[10:39] {Threei} you'll be amazed by7 the difference
[10:40] {peterg} Dave Pelosi?
