[09:28] {Threei} then decisive break
[09:28] {Threei} that would be my preferred scenario
[09:28] {Threei} Break right out of the gate, well

[10:32] {Threei} there are local politicians here who insist on ban on drive-through, our of emissions concern during engine idling
[10:32] {Threei} I love their reasoning:
[10:32] {Threei} we understand convinience is nice but it's not absolutely necessary
[10:32] {Threei} I suggest these guys to throw out their TVs
[10:32] {Threei} they are not absolutely necessary
[10:33] {Threei} so by their logic must be discarded
[10:35] {BillyD} if RJET can hold 7 area, then B/O worth a shot with some tension
[10:35] {dino} burn 'em all ike
[10:36] {Threei} oil moving up makes it questionable, Billy
[10:36] {Threei} RJET is sensitive to oil
[10:36] {BillyD} makes sense, thanks...plus it needs more tension
[10:36] {ese} I'm also looking at the 16.50 mark for intc....if it gets there this would be the fourth time bumping up against it.......and if it gets through that should propel it up quite significantly
[10:36] {Threei} yeah, tough one really

[10:44] {Threei} double top
[10:44] {Threei} second one made on lower volume
[10:44] {BillyD} was thinking .12 or.13 earlier worth a shot
[10:44] {dino} waiting around 8
[10:45] {Threei} so... technically speaking yes, 7 break is short
[10:45] {Threei} but this thing is not very technical
[10:45] {dino} problem is how much, to 6.80ish?

[13:40] {Threei} hello comrade Stalin
[13:41] {Threei} here is a little story from Russian history, you'll enjoy this one
[13:42] {Threei} legend goes, the factory manifacturing mathces weas infamous for a very low quality of the product
[13:42] {Threei} not having much to choose from people had to buy their matches
[13:42] {Threei} complaints grew louder, and at asome point reached Stalin's ears.
[13:43] {Threei} Director of the factory was summoned
[13:43] {Threei} visit to Stalin by itself was not a small occassion as you can imagine
[13:43] {Threei} and the guy wasn't even topld what it was about
[13:44] {Threei} He was ushered in the office,
[13:44] {Threei} Stalin sat at his desk reading some document and making remarks on the margin,
[13:45] {Threei} never raising his sight at poor guy, never speaking to him, at some point in dead silence he grabbed his smoking pipe
[13:45] {nemo} hehehehe
[13:45] {Threei} picked up matches manufactured by this factory
[13:45] {Threei} and started trying to ignite them.
[13:46] {Threei} 3 or 5 got broken not giving fire
[13:46] {Threei} Stalin sighed, put the pipe down on the desk and continued working
[13:46] {Threei} no single word, no eye contact
[13:46] {Threei} message was sent and heard :)
[13:47] {Threei} heads rolled, quality of the product was fixed in a matter of days
[13:48] {Threei} Preview: FOMC rate decision and statement due out at around 2:15pmET
[13:48] {Threei} **The FOMC is expected to hold rates steady at 0.25% again today, though speculation has begun to circulate that the Fed could modify its statement to clarify that, while it is thinking about exit strategies, it does not expect to raise rates any time soon. Currently Fed Funds Futures show a 36% chance of a rate hike by the end of 2009. The FOMC may also need to address its asset purchase program in today's statement, as it has already gone through over half of the current $300B allocation, and is on track to reach the full target some time in August or September. With the next FOMC meeting not until August, the Fed will likely need to use either today's statement or Bernanke's semiannual policy testimony in July to outline the Fed's future plans for asset purchases.

[14:33] {nemo} How in tarnation do you trade that ekg...look at fcx, tck, rimm
[14:34] {Raven} careful
[14:36] {nemo} about my earlier comment Raven :) or the one immediately preceing?
[14:36] {nemo} preceding
[14:37] {Raven} the earlier one ...
[14:37] {nemo} Oh...brief aside: Raven...what specific optics do u use birding?
[14:38] {Raven} I have several ... 8x40 binos and 10x40 too
[14:38] {nemo} specifically...I'm an optics snob
[14:38] {Raven} 20-60 power scope
[14:38] {nemo} spotting scope?
[14:38] {Raven} yup
[14:38] {dino} i have the only short that doesn't drop
[14:39] {BillyD} lol....
[14:39] {nemo} Nikon, Bausch & Lomb, Swarovski, Leica, Kahles
[14:39] {nemo} ?
[14:39] {BillyD} it kinda makes you feel singled out
[14:39] {Raven} scope is Bushnell ... bino's Bushnell and Zeiss
[14:40] {nemo} Bushnell...the elites?
[14:40] {nemo} Zeiss...Schott Glasswerk, nice stuff
[14:41] {Raven} yes but my Zeiss ate 25 years old and the lenses on my throw away Bushnell almost a good
[14:41] {nemo} less accent with the Zeiss
[14:41] {Raven} the Bushnell binos cost $105 ... rofl
[14:41] {dino} am covered flat
[14:42] {nemo} I find at about $900 is where it becomes difficult to tell the difference, below that, I see differences in optics...best I've seen in that range are Nikon...although have Bushnell Elite scope
[14:43] {Raven} I will check the cheapie model ... brb
[14:44] {ese} sell off to clear out weak hands???
[14:44] {nemo} SON
[14:44] {ese} or are we actually headed down
[14:45] {Raven} Bushnell Nature View 8x42 ... was $105 delivered last year
[14:45] {nemo} What state are you in Raven?
[14:45] {Raven} Michigan
[14:45] {ese} now were headed up ...... well i can officially tell you that i can't trade this type of market.....have no f^%$%$ idea
[14:46] {nemo} Any Cabelas or Bass Pro shops around you?
[14:47] {Raven} Cabelas two hours east
[14:49] {BillyD} Vad, do you trade the ETF's like EDZ etc and is there a way to eliminate them from scanner
[14:49] {nemo} A bit far...If you haven't already, and you get a chance, they'll have a large selection from cheap to expensive...Spend some time at the counter and, if you can, look at camoflage clothing at a distance. Low contrast differentiation, espcially in low light is where the differences really show up. Usually the optics counter is in the middle of the Cabela's store.
[14:50] {Threei} not sure about elimination billy
[14:50] {BillyD} I don't see a way
[14:50] {Threei} wouldn't want to ban whole exchange
[14:51] {BillyD} no
[14:51] {Threei} although AMEX is not very valuable exchange
[14:51] {BillyD} I just have NYSE and NASDAQ selected
[14:52] {Threei} there was time when almost all ETFs traded at AMEX
[14:52] {Raven} I will try that sometime ... spend a hour or so endearing meself to clerk ... and buy nothing
[14:52] {Threei} ARUN
[14:58] {dino} jpm sm l .40
[14:59] {nemo} happens all the time Oh winged one
[14:59] {Raven} yes
[15:00] {nemo} Besides..maybe you'll be struck by the difference, and go, "What the Hell...can't take it with me anyway."
[15:01] {Raven} lol ... I have made comparisons ... so not likely
[15:01] {nemo} then again...maybe not
[15:01] {vinod} one more trade before close?
[15:03] {Threei} if it comes around
[15:03] {vinod} i am still upset about RIMM

[15:24] {Threei} otherwise even if it bounces, it's going to be labored one not worth the risk
[15:24] {Threei} no
[15:24] {Threei} I am not touching it here
[15:25] {Threei} shrap flush is one version of what I want to see,
