Nov 13 2008

What a day. Over 900 points range, 11%. Started out well, then took a few stops trying to short initial bounces. Finally got a sense of what was coming, switched to longs and day turned fun and profitable. What a contrast with boredom of the rest of the week.

[11:15] {Threei} it's a momo play
[11:15] {hawkfan4} yeah, can't get a feel for it yet
[11:15] {Threei} they rarely follow technical patterns, more like a matter of whether momo returns or dies
[11:15] {dino} pru stopped done w/it it's broken
[11:22] {hawkfan4} stoped LVS -.10. had 2:1 but froze like a deer in mags headlights

[11:39] {Threei} watching FMCN pullback
[11:39] {Threei} will be interesting near 7
[11:42] {Threei} didn't go that low

[11:53] {lisa_jay} yup
[11:53] {Threei} and FMCN is wounded stock
[11:53] {dawg} scalping FMCN Vad?
[11:53] {Threei} I think so
[11:53] {Threei} maybe do this:
[11:53] {Threei} stop to right under .30,
[11:53] {Threei} and see if it breaks that .34 offer
[11:53] {Threei} it does, great
[11:54] {Threei} it loses .30, just take little scalp and let it be
[11:54] {dawg} OK .34 is where I am offering
[11:55] {dawg} out taking .28
[11:55] {dawg} Thanks Vad good call
[11:55] {Threei} welcome,
[11:55] {Threei} watch that big offer chasing it down

[12:11] {dino} lol
[12:11] {dino} if we could only harness the power for good
[12:14] {Threei} yes you can!'
[12:15] {Threei} let Obama know you can freeze the market... you will be hired on a spot
[12:16] {Threei} charge 0.0001% of the amount market DIDN'T lose on each given day, you are insanely rich
[12:21] {dino} 8.174 was oct 28th low
[12:21] {Threei} very hard to say whether we are back to selloff pattern or this is just a trap
[12:21] {dino} 8,143 10/27
[12:22] {magoo} surprise surprise
[12:22] {magoo} mkt blows again
[12:28] {Threei} have you noticed how happy and firsky market becomes on rally attempts
[12:29] {Threei} and how slow and depressed it is when downward resumes... kid of hangs its head with sigh, "what, again?... whatever..."
[12:33] {Threei} good comment somewhere yesterday:

[12:42] {Threei} wow
[12:42] {dawg} what the..
[12:42] {Threei} you take concept of tight stop to the extreme :)
[12:43] {Threei} along with concept of trailing it
[12:43] {lisa_jay} Yeah...well you did say tight stop...I had .99 as stop 1:1 :-)
[12:43] {Threei} .99 is good
[12:43] {Threei} but 2 cents profit... unless you had 20K shares...
[12:43] {lisa_jay} I wish.
[12:44] {dino} lisa, pick your $ pain and simply adjust size

[12:47] {dawg} stopped FMCN
[12:47] {dino} lisa, if very small then give yourself chance to make $, widen stop so not rinsed all over
[12:48] {dino} tight stops are for big shares, imo
[12:48] {lisa_jay} will try that Dino...I get stopped out very often. Only using bigger sizes for Vad's calls.
[12:49] {lisa_jay} Shares that is.

[13:20] {Geo} hmmmmmm
[13:24] {dino} gut call, we close hod's
[13:24] {lisa_jay} Yes, feel the same...could see one of those ramp ups.
[13:26] {Threei} well... if that materializes, UAUA is likely to go to about 9.50
[13:27] {Threei} and ADBE to 22.30
[13:27] {dino} adbe had good channel checks
[13:27] {Threei} timing of entry is beyond difficult

[15:09] {Threei} and fell back a little?
[15:10] {Geo} vads all about poetic analogies these days
[15:10] {Threei} yup, drunkards falling off a cliff is very poetic

[15:26] {Threei} The stock market has now lost about $6.9 trillion dollars since the peak. This is almost 10 times the size of the $700 billion TARP program. This is seven times the value of all subprime mortgages that were in existence in the US (around $900 billion), six times the amount at the peak of the housing boom. All the mortgage debt in the US amounts to around 11 trillion. In our words, the stock market has now lost enough value to discount that 60% of the homeowners in the US with mortgages are going to default on their mortgage. Can you say overdone?
[15:26] {Geo} i thought the stock market is just a zit on the bond market

Nov 12 2008

A few nice trades, a few stops. Profitable but most importantly, safe. I'll quote what I feel about this market:

[13:31] {Threei} for a few days now market has this frozen look... drifts down mostly, but doing it a manner of drunkard who suddenly sobers up and gets frightened. He bravely walked on a brink of chasm while drunk, then sobered up and saw where he was. When he sobers up and sees where he is and gets scared,
he is being torn between two conflicting impulses: one is to back away from the abyss, another is to close his eyes and step right in.

Abyss acts like magnet now... market can resist its pull no more than rabbit can resist snake.

[10:59] {Threei} I'd like more aggressive entry with tighter stop
[11:00] {Threei} if you like the idea of trade, grab it on any pulllback
[11:00] {Threei} stop under .40
[11:00] {Threei} target is between .60 and .70

[11:03] {magoo} i like couple hundred thousand volume
[11:04] {Threei} we don't have formal treshold mudd... jujst generally avoiding low volume pukers
[11:05] {muddleheaded} O.k.
[11:06] {hawkfan4} gj dog, was gonna do the same but spilled my coffee all over my desk reaching for the mouse :)
[11:07] {dawg} i've done that too hope damage wasn't to bad
[11:07] {lisa_jay} Been there so many times that I now need a hammer to move my keybord keys.
[11:07] {dawg} lol
[11:08] {Threei} UAUA
[11:08] {Threei} bounce should be close

[11:11] {magoo} man vad...look at DISH chart

[11:12] {Threei} we exited 2 cents under day high
[11:12] {Chaeron} uaua... whoops
[11:13] {Onix} yes, that was a good one for you guys
[11:13] {Onix} and i am still not crying
[11:14] {Chaeron} (everytime I see UAUA, I think of the song "Louie, Louie"... you know: Lou aay, Lou aay, whoooa, oh... We gotta go"
[11:14] {Threei} lol
[11:14] {Onix} :)

[11:20] {Threei} US TSY PAULSON: $700B NUMBER FOR BAILOUT STILL ENOUGH FOR FINANCIAL MARKET ASSISTANCE
[11:20] {dino} mcd stop to .39
[11:21] {Threei} what is truly shocking about this whole mess - constant non-ending barrage of new and new hits and speed with which they are coming
[11:22] {Threei} as soon as powers that be sell another 'fix", new problem jumps right from around the corner
[11:22] {KSystems} any idea how long this is going to last?
[11:22] {Threei} haha
[11:22] {KSystems} I mean...when are stocks going to be priced like they were before the crisis?
[11:22] {KSystems} you're invited to laugh again
[11:23] {Threei} :)
[11:24] {Threei} see, major problem as I see it is inevitabledebt contraction
[11:24] {Threei} much of "prosperity" was build on a shaky foundation of debt
[11:24] {Threei} built
[11:25] {Threei} a lot of spending was based on disposable income which, in tunr, was based on debt
[11:26] {Threei} This whole mechanism has collapsed now
[11:26] {Threei} new spending will be built on more realistic leverage
[11:27] {Threei} thus, by definition, will be mcuh more restrained
[11:27] {Threei} so, market is sorting out now who will survive,
[11:27] {Threei} who will collapse,
[11:27] {Threei} who will prosper
[11:28] {dino} dino's gut says we end around 7000 dji
[11:28] {Geo} there is an interesting article by a guy who wrote liar's poker.....
[11:29] {dino} good book
[11:29] {Geo} http://www.portfolio.com/news-markets/national-news/portfolio/2008/11/11/The-End-of-Wall-Streets-Boom
[11:30] {Geo} profiles a couple of guys who couldnt believe what was going on and shorted the investment banks.... and were encouraged to do so by the banks themselves

[11:43] {dino} lunch
[11:44] {Threei} I have this feeling in my stomach that we'll be lucky if -400 is all for today
[11:44] {dino} and ty dawg, onix, lisa
[11:44] {Threei} and if we get any sizeable bounce
[11:44] {dino} great miinds think alike, i said to magoo -500 coming, but if we bet i'll take -400
[11:45] {dino} apathy feeling in markets today
[11:45] {Onix} yes, looks like 3rd down day in the next leg down?
[11:45] {Threei} with panic sprikled on top
[11:45] {Onix} lol

[11:48] {magoo} u like my vadism?
[11:48] {Threei} why wouldn't I... I invented it :)
[11:48] {Geo} comeon vad........ he is asking
[11:49] {Threei} ECB'S STARK: THE FINANCIAL CRISIS IS "WRECKING HAVOC," DIFFICULT TO ASSESS ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
[11:50] {Threei} KS... another scary thing is (although in a certain perverted sense it's encouraging),
[11:50] {Threei} there is no place in the world that would remain relatively safe in this environment
[11:51] {lisa_jay} Dawg, DISH still hold tight.

[12:05] {Threei} I don't want to initiate any position here, volume died down

[12:05] {Threei} so... what can be done at all about GM?
[12:05] {Threei} failure puts about 3 mil jobs on the line
[12:06] {Onix} someone pulled up the emergency brakes?
[12:06] {Threei} not an option
[12:06] {Threei} how do you save it qwhen no one buys cars?
[12:07] {Onix} quite a headache hey?
[12:07] {Geo} QCOM getting pounded
[12:07] {Threei} understatement of the century...
[12:07] {Threei} all the discussions about bailing it out, I just can't understand how
[12:08] {Threei} give it money? what does it solve?
[12:08] {Onix} but next in line at the government window must be the airlines hey?
[12:08] {Threei} they'll burn through it in a few months, what's next?
[12:09] {Onix} government going to keep pumping money into GM etc?
[12:09] {Onix} as you, how can they just keep doing that?
[12:09] {Onix} rather let them go into chapter 11 and re-organize
[12:09] {Threei} current level of sales simply can't sustain the comapny
[12:10] {Geo} tought to happen as abama need to pay his dues to UAW
[12:10] {Threei} QCOM
[12:10] {Threei} CEO: COMPANY STOPPED NEW HIRING, PHONE MAKERS CUT ORDERS 'DRAMATICALLY' TO LOWER INVENTORY
[12:10] {Threei} - notes there is uncertainty in forecast
[12:13] {Onix} they call it the credit crisis
[12:13] {Threei} market is looking into abyss
[12:13] {Onix} so everything bought on credit is in real trouble with so many people losing their jobs
[12:13] {Threei} and when you do that for too long, abyss starts looking back at you
[12:14] {Geo} thats deep vad
[12:14] {muddleheaded} Anybody watching anything?
[12:14] {Threei} I want peter to be proud of me
[12:14] {Geo} in NTAP

[13:09] {dptl} :)...i scare my self
[13:10] {dptl} and qqqq at .50 may be
[13:10] {Threei} looks like, yes
[13:11] {Threei} very strange market here I must say
[13:11] {dino} as opposed to?
[13:11] {Threei} lol
[13:11] {peterg} warm and friendly, cuddly market
[13:11] {dino} pretty much the normal since sept. 1st
[13:12] {KSystems} probably its not the market but us
[13:12] {Threei} todays is stranger
[13:12] {peterg} retek nart dardlep
[13:12] {Threei} slow drift down,,, slow drift up...
[13:12] {muddleheaded} Does anybody use pivot points on the indices?
[13:12] {Onix} its all slippery with blood with the bulls and bears fighting so much
[13:13] {Threei} lol onix
[13:13] {Threei} as general idea of support/resistance levels, mudd
[13:18] {dino} intra-day and natural ones
[13:18] {Onix} what you think of KG Vad?
[13:19] {Threei} .50 if holding above .40 would be a standard play
[13:19] {Threei} I just don't trust it
[13:19] {Onix} ty
[13:20] {lisa_jay} FISV?
[13:20] {magoo} KG? pretty good basket ball player
[13:20] {Threei} same thing, only more volatile and risky
[13:21] {peterg} he left minnesota for boston
[13:21] {lisa_jay} Ok, thanks Vad.
[13:21] {Onix} just what you sid Vad, look at KG now!
[13:21] {Onix} said
[13:22] {dino} mkts dropping imo
[13:22] {Threei} yikes
[13:23] {magoo} jesus..does paulen even get a bathrm brteak lol
[13:23] {KSystems} is he still speaking??
[13:24] {Onix} his full-time job is to prop up the markets, didn't you know?
[13:24] {magoo} oh..i looked up..guess it was news story
[13:24] {Threei} lol
[13:24] {dino} and he does a terrible job at it. should just hire a motivational speaker
[13:25] {Onix} :)
[13:26] {dino} brb
[13:27] {Threei} dino may have figured it out
[13:27] {Threei} market needs Tony Robbins
[13:28] {Onix} i think rather Robbin Williams
[13:28] {KSystems} LOL
[13:31] {Threei} for a few days now market has this frozen look
[13:32] {peterg} snow on ground in MN -- could be a connection?
[13:33] {Threei} drifts down mostly, but doing it a manner of drunkard who suddenly sobers up and gets frightened
[13:33] {Onix} lol
[13:33] {magoo} see..even u have become lulled and complacent..this USED to be a big down day..280 down
[13:33] {Threei} bravely walked on a brink of chasm while drunk,
[13:33] {magoo} now its no big deal
[13:33] {Threei} sobered up and saw where he was
[13:34] {Threei} it's not even about the size of red mags...
[13:34] {peterg} So, maggers, what does it all mean?
[13:34] {Threei} it's the fashion in which it's done that creates this wierd feeling
[13:34] {Threei} to further my analogy and try to explain what I feel...
[13:35] {Onix} smart money is either all out already, or they can not make up their mind
[13:35] {Threei} when he sobers up and sees where he is and gets scared,
[13:35] {peterg} then
[13:35] {peterg} he
[13:35] {Threei} he is being torn between two conflicting impulses
[13:35] {Threei} one is to back away from the abyss
[13:36] {Geo} back
[13:36] {Threei} another is to close his eyes and step right in
[13:36] {Onix} all aboard? ... going down!
[13:36] {Geo} we in anything?
[13:36] {Threei} no
[13:36] {Onix} nope
[13:36] {Geo} thanks
[13:36] {Threei} seriously guys
[13:36] {Threei} I am not trying to be cute
[13:36] {peterg} Captain of balloon ride in colorado explained to me my fear was from my wish to jump
[13:36] {Threei} (not that I have any chance to succeed in that)
[13:37] {peterg} Im following you vad
[13:37] {Threei} this is how I feel watching market last few days
[13:37] {Onix} too much vodka?
[13:37] {Threei} sigh... I have no chance to be taken seriously, do I :)
[13:38] {Onix} lol
[13:38] {Onix} sorry, i agre with you, it is real stange these last few days in the markets
[13:40] {dino} feels like nobody cares...apathy
[13:40] {peterg} My bellweather stock, GE, is tanking further
[13:41] {Onix} i don't hope it is going to be like this for the next 69 days until Obama takes the reigns
[13:41] {peterg} Sold this summer.
[13:41] {peterg} If its like this, Onix, you
[13:41] {Threei} dino... strikes me as
[13:41] {Threei} ummm
[13:41] {peterg} will have to keep your day job
[13:41] {Onix} so true
[13:41] {dino} yes?
[13:42] {Threei} not apathy but rather being horrified of inevitable
[13:42] {Threei} scared to death of it,
[13:42] {Threei} scarewd to face it,
[13:42] {Threei} and not seeing any way to avoid it
[13:42] {peterg} who said, "the horror, the horror...."?
[13:42] {peterg} anyone?
[13:42] {dino} apocolaspse(?) now
[13:42] {peterg} rihngt
[13:43] {peterg} from book
[13:43] {peterg} by conrad
[13:43] {Threei} all thinkable lifelines thrown in, used up and didn't help
[13:43] {hawkfan4} Col. Kurtz
[13:43] {peterg} heart of darkness
[13:43] {Geo} rumor is..... being paid to wait till jan 20
[13:43] {peterg} yes yes!
[13:43] {Geo} lol
[13:43] {peterg} so maybe vad it is just too awful even for us to think about
[13:44] {peterg} lost in space
[13:44] {Threei} well, our advantage is ability to control risk
[13:44] {Threei} stay away if needed
[13:44] {dino} the way i see it, they must let capitalism work, so ineviably bankruptcies must occur, bondholders must be paid off, not in principle, but new stock, and contracts must be broken. then start over
[13:44] {peterg} yup
[13:44] {Threei} cut losses short if needed
[13:44] {Threei} grab obvious profits when they are there
[13:44] {Threei} exactly what we did these lat few days
[13:45] {peterg} good, but difficult for a young seventeen year old like myself
[13:45] {dino} yes vad, it is a daytraders world for now
[13:45] {Threei} I am afraid in today's situation it's not going to happen dino
[13:45] {Threei} not with incoming administration
[13:45] {dino} agreed, thats why it will take twice as long
[13:45] {Threei} not after all these endless bailouts
[13:46] {peterg} where does this money end up?
[13:46] {Threei} they will dig deeper and deeper hole in hope to make another generation pay for it
[13:46] {dino} north korea closing border jan. 1st. another obama test in the making
[13:46] {peterg} truly the curse of living in interesting times
[13:46] {Threei} really, do you see new prez ditching UAW?
[13:46] {peterg} not going to happen
[13:46] {peterg} apparently
[13:47] {peterg} detroit has been a pit for forty years or more
[13:47] {peterg} sorry if i offend people
[13:47] {dino} you don't
[13:47] {Threei} light at the end of the tunnel for us is
[13:47] {dino} not me at least
[13:47] {peterg} gotcha
[13:47] {Threei} [13:46] {peterg} where does this money end up?
[13:47] {peterg} ya
[13:47] {Threei} that's what will work eventually for us as traders
[13:48] {Threei} trillions on a sideline
[13:48] {peterg} ahhah
[13:48] {Threei} sooner or later they will pour in
[13:48] {Threei} and prop the markets in bull frenzy
[13:48] {Threei} timing is tough but it will be well worth the wait
[13:48] {peterg} back to dino
[13:49] {peterg} jungle image
[13:49] {peterg} correct
[13:49] {Threei} we got first taste of it on days when market did 1000 points green
[13:49] {lisa_jay} sigh..FISV, would have gone to 32.85 if i had bought.
[13:49] {lisa_jay} oh well.
[13:49] {Threei} shrug it off lisa... was random one
[13:49] {Threei} 50/50
[13:49] {lisa_jay} Yes, learning to read patterns though. Thanks.
[13:50] {peterg} lisa, you are inspriation tolazy me to learn patterns.
[13:50] {lisa_jay} Actually got it from Dawg.
[13:51] {peterg} Thanks all o yez
[13:51] {dawg} dogs back on the pipe
[13:51] {peterg} smokin?
[13:51] {lisa_jay} Hot.
[13:51] {dawg} but thanks Lisa
[13:52] {peterg} back in hr. Nobody make money til then.
[13:52] {lisa_jay} With the market the way it is, you can wake us up when you get back.
[13:54] {Threei} abyss is a magnet
[13:54] {lisa_jay} yes
[13:56] {dino} lod coming
[13:56] {Threei} today shapes up as one of those days
[13:56] {Threei} serously exceeding "normal - 300"
[13:57] {Threei} you are going to win that bet with magoo, dino
[13:57] {Threei} to quote outgoing prez... "this sucker is going down"
[13:58] {Onix} lol
[14:00] {Onix} but if market goes down much more, government will have to start bailing out pension funds as well
[14:01] {Threei} you know... as far as big economic picure is concerned, I just don't have any points of reference to try and create any kind of forecast
[14:02] {Threei} unfortunately, events show neither do decision-makers
[14:02] {Threei} I mean, what does collapse of this and that and that implicate?
[14:02] {Threei} when GM, F, MS, GE are down and out,
[14:02] {Threei} when pnesion funds are ruined
[14:03] {Threei} whart happens next?
[14:03] {dino} pension funds are already insured by govt., pension guanatee assoc.
[14:03] {Threei} this is where I have major troubles dino
[14:03] {dino} annuities just got tarp, think insurors
[14:03] {Threei} who insures the govt?
[14:03] {Onix} maybe that is what is was like recovering after WWI & II?
[14:03] {patience} my theory is businss becomes predominantly foreign owned in the U.S.
[14:04] {Threei} what happens when the govt that insures everyone goes bust?
[14:04] {dino} printing presses do 3i, we will be shorting dollar and bonds very shortly
[14:04] {patience} u.s. taxes have to go up to pay today's promises
[14:04] {KSystems} Look at Iceland, its happened there
[14:05] {Onix} if states like California can go bust, then the whole UA can also go bust
[14:05] {Threei} I don't know about foreign ownership... seems the rest of the world has it even worse than US
[14:05] {Onix} new world leader (China) will emerge
[14:06] {Threei} this I truly doubt
[14:06] {lisa_jay} qqqq's at lower end of the channel.
[14:06] {dino} you are clouded by silly academic ideas (w/respect intended). the politicians and bankers know the only way out is to inflate it away. right now dollar and bonds are going up, but to pay it off "cheaper", we must print around the clock, de-valuing bonds, dollar, etc. so if dolar drops 30%, we save $200 billion...see
[14:07] {Threei} this I understand dino
[14:07] {Threei} what I don't is,
[14:07] {dino} they understand this, and joe sixpack keeps his (no 30% less) pension
[14:07] {Threei} devaluation of dollar relative to what?
[14:07] {Threei} whole world has to print
[14:07] {Threei} and inflate the way out of problem
[14:07] {dino} gold, oiul, china, etc
[14:07] {dino} oil
[14:08] {dino} another commodity boom in the making imo
[14:08] {dawg} short Q's .06 out .94 for a dime scalp
[14:08] {Onix} we are going to press the reset button and start from scratch
[14:09] {dino} hmmm, again w/respect intended.....do not over think it, inflation is coming soon. obama will be dealing w/carter like environment. rates
[14:11] {dino} cycles are just coming faster these days, imo
[14:11] {Onix} we are fairly protected up here in Canada from all the economic turmoil at this stage
[14:11] {Onix} but i feel real sorry for all the millions losing their jobs in the USA
[14:12] {dino} don't misunderstand me. there will be plenty of opprtunities
[14:12] {dino} ty onix
[14:14] {lisa_jay} Nice one Dawg.
[14:14] {Threei} market does go down as we foresaw... problem is, I can't find safe entry points
[14:15] {dino} same problem, my mind resists shorting when down 750 dji points since fri close
[14:15] {dino} 8.5%
[14:15] {Threei} what a mess
[14:16] {dino} agreed
[14:18] {dino} -1,295 since close on election day, or13.5%
[14:19] {dawg} bounce scalp C in .84 out .96
[14:19] {Onix} anybody with a cristal ball to tell us what time the day-traders are going to start to cover their shorts today?
[14:19] {dptl} vvus .51 long ?
[14:22] {dawg} in C short .98 for a scalp
[14:22] {Threei} VVUS, I doubt it
[14:26] {dawg} stopped C -7 cents
[14:27] {Threei} GE
[14:27] {Threei} APPROVED TO OFFER FDIC INSURANCE ON $139B IN DEBT, GE CAPITAL ELIGIBLE FOR EXPANDED PROGRAM
[14:27] {Threei} is this what propped the market just now?
[14:28] {dawg} short C .04 for a scalp
[14:33] {dawg} stoppped C -8 cents
[14:33] {Threei} -4 you mean?
[14:34] {dawg} in at 04 and stopped at .12
[14:34] {Threei} oh, I see... didn't saw it spiking there
[14:34] {dawg} Yes reversing
[14:35] {dawg} but only trading small lot of 200 shares
[14:39] {dino} press conference coming..."all americans to get $50k in cash to stimu;late economy" just kidding, but might be cheaper current stategy
[14:40] {Threei} why limit it so severely
[14:40] {dawg} lol
[14:40] {Threei} I'd suggest including canadians
[14:40] {Threei} maga, Italy, right?
[14:41] {Threei} KS, germany?
[14:41] {KSystems} yep
[14:42] {Threei} Chaeron, cosmo and geo will probably insist on including California
[14:42] {Threei} now, that I'll object to
[14:43] {Geo} ou can leave california out
[14:43] {Geo} just give it to me
[14:44] {Geo} and chaeron too...
[14:44] {dino} lol
[14:51] {Chaeron} thank you Geo... I think you're on to something... give it all to me and Geo and we will distribute among our friends... I don't have any friends tho Geo, do you?

[14:55] {Threei} one more leg down is coming
[14:58] {Geo} ne calls vad?
[14:59] {dawg} short C .92
[14:59] {Threei} tough proposition geo
[14:59] {Threei} general direction is relatively easy
[14:59] {Threei} a lot of short-lived rallies are very hard to time
[14:59] {Geo} yeah..... i got rinsed on QID and one more... cant remember.....
[14:59] {Geo} convinient memory :)
[15:00] {dawg} out C .81

[15:01] {dawg} Took awhile but your general direction give me courage
[15:02] {Onix} paper trading does help lisa :)
[15:02] {lisa_jay} Yes, if i was in the position, we would be having a huge rally.
[15:02] {Threei} lol
[15:03] {Threei} this kind of paper trades build confidence lisa
[15:03] {magoo} all we need is chaer to short something big...BAM RALLEY
[15:03] {lisa_jay} I hope.

[15:04] {lisa_jay} Lets short something.
[15:05] {Onix} lisa, where do you live?

[15:08] {lisa_jay} lol

[15:08] {dino} roflol
[15:09] {peterg} anybody looking att anything?
[15:09] {dino} but they need to hire magoo too or it won't work
[15:09] {Threei} even that won't stop them

[15:09] {Threei} peter... my feekling is, last bounce, then royal flush
[15:10] {peterg} time guesstimate?
[15:10] {dino} peter, my feeling is to ask magoo to bring me a brew and call it a day
[15:10] {Threei} 5 minutes
[15:10] {Onix} :)
[15:10] {peterg} wanna short something, as lisa suggested?

[15:32] {dawg} what is the right way was waiting for flush
[15:32] {Threei} it dropped into low instwad of consolidating above it,
[15:32] {Threei} this kind is more likely to bounce instead of continue
[15:32] {dawg} ah got it always learning with you
[15:33] {Threei} either wait for bounce into resistance or for consolidation and break
[15:33] {dawg} I was ass backwards

[15:34] {muddleheaded} Any thoughts on FTBK?
[15:35] {Threei} FTBK is moving on this:
[15:35] {Threei} 11/12/08 10:12am
[15:35] {Threei} [FTBK] Frontier Financial Announces Status of Treasury Capital Purchase Program Application
[15:35] {Threei} - indicated they have filed an application for the Capital Purchase Program announced by the Treasury. The deadline to file the application is November 14, 2008. At this time, Frontier's application has neither been denied nor approved by their federal regulators or the Treasury.
[15:35] {magoo} dino is ranting non stop"how can it not print 400 down..."
[15:36] {muddleheaded} Thanks.
[15:36] {Threei} they are denied, it drops 2 bucks faster than traders blink
