01[11:02] {Threei} ok, just keep in mind - stops must be set via OMS module

01[11:03] {Threei} not through drop down menu

[11:03] {strider} I use drop down menu.

01[11:03] {Threei} that one is known for spotty reliability

01[11:03] {Threei} unless soemthing changed since I looked last time

[11:04] {strider} Haven't had any problems with it. rarely use it though.

[11:04] {Les} how do you set a stop? the stop price window isn't available to me.

[11:04] {strider} Use it but rarely triggers. Usu. override it.

[12:21] {Threei} you all fell asleep?

[12:21] {shorty} Not yet

[12:21] {Threei} {--- looking for an excuse to do the same

[12:22] {shorty} Are you trading on Monday Threei?

[12:23] {Threei} why wouldn't I?

[12:23] {shorty} Just wondering, being the long weekend.

[12:23] {Threei} what religion forbids trading on Mondays?

[12:23] {nemo} Isn't that next week?

[12:23] {shorty} For the US

[12:24] {nemo} Memorial Day is the 31st

[12:24] {Threei} May 31 Memorial Day Closed

[12:25] {Threei} May 24 is usual trading day

[12:26] {shorty} Thought I would plan my trading and family time on Monday.

[12:28] {Threei} even news slowed down to a crawl

[12:28] {Threei} 15 min, no single headline

[12:30] {Les} BP on watch for 45 b/d

[12:30] {Threei} AMTD Hearing customers currently unable to access online accounts (17.84, -0.57, -3.10%)

[12:30] {Threei} 45??

[12:31] {Threei} les... are we in the same universe? :)

[12:31] {nemo} 200 ma vad

[12:31] {Les} The latest glimpse of video footage of the oil spill deep under the Gulf of Mexico indicates that around 95,000 barrels, or 4 million gallons, a day of crude oil may be spewing from the leaking wellhead, 19 times the previous estimate, an engineering professor told Congress Wednesday

[12:31] {Les} why?

[12:31] {nemo} Vad.....remember who you're talkin' to

[12:31] {Les} not a setup

[12:32] {Les} just watching for 45 b/d. 45 is also 200ma support.

[12:32] {Threei} stock being 20+ cents from there, surely you can find better entry than that

[12:32] {Les} aaaaaaaaah

[12:33] {Threei} plus absence of qualifier folr how it gets there

[12:33] {Threei} makes whole thing kind of useless theoretical exercise

[12:34] {Threei} and yes nemo, I know Les is Martian

[12:34] {shorty} See you guys. Picking up family at airport. Hopefully I can be here for the close.

[12:34] {Les} I'm good for the day. BP breakdown of 45 would constitute icing on cake. IMO, BP is going down

[12:34] {Threei} but still, setups should be uniform across known Universe

[12:34] {Threei} take care shorty

[12:34] {Les} oh piss off the pair of yous :)

[12:35] {nemo} frickin' sheila

[12:35] {Threei} hmmm... one could have thought they were rude on mars

[12:38] {Threei} BP started forming something

[12:38] {Les} ain't what I was looking for, but I'll take it. .25 break?

[12:38] {Les} crap

[12:38] {Threei} .25 break ruins short setup,

[12:39] {Threei} whether it froms long one, not so sure

[12:39] {Threei} let's wait for a bit,, unclear moment for the market overall

[12:39] {Threei} I am niot ready to switch to longs yet here

[12:40] {Threei} but dontrend line is on the verge of being broken

[12:40] {Threei} downtrend

[12:42] {Threei} Long Setup: X .50 break

[12:42] {Threei} if stays above .35

[12:43] {Threei} also,

[12:49] {Les} seen

[12:49] {nemo} quasi inverted H&S\

[12:49] {Threei} if holding above .30 and breaks .50, sets a stage for a trend change

[12:49] {Threei} and why were you in BP in a first place??

[12:49] {Les} good question

[12:51] {Threei} loss of .30 for SPY invalidates long

[12:51] {nemo} loss, capitualation

[14:43] {Threei} it was one of my major peevees with whole concept of Euro

[14:43] {Les} aah

[14:43] {Les} sounds like economist suggesting to politician what needs to be done

[14:43] {Threei} you have common currency but members have separate policies?

[14:43] {Threei} good luck with that

[14:46] {larisa} but now Greeks are thinking about cutting down government payments to chronic alcoholics who do not want to get treatment :) so.. first step!

[14:46] {larisa} this country fascinates me

[14:47] {Threei} no way larisa

[14:47] {Threei} not going to happen

[14:48] {larisa} alcoholics will still get minimum wage just for drinking ? moving to Greece then

[14:49] {Threei} yes, and govt will additionally finance stuff to deliver drinks to them, taking away empties etc,

[14:49] {larisa} TSL is making earnings run

[15:18] {Threei} that's actually good point

[15:18] {Threei} but Infinite Ramsey theorem spills different light on it

[15:18] {dino} ;) the days not over yet

[15:19] {Threei} it's very simple actually, think of it like this:

[15:19] {Threei} Let X be some countably infinite set and colour the elements of X(n) (the subsets of X of size n) in c different colours. Then there exists some infinite subset M of X such that the size n subsets of M all have the same colour.

[15:19] {Threei} thus, green or red...

[15:19] {Threei} who cares

[15:19] {Les} got anything in black?

May 19 2010

Somewhat muddy day with not much to use in a sense of established patterns. Just about flat finish for us.

Session Time: Wed May 19 00:00:00 2010

[01:46] {KSystems} good morning

[08:18] {magoo} mornong

[08:18] {nemo} :)

[08:21] {nemo} playing anything this morning mags?

[08:22] {Threei} GE) German Finance Ministry: The short selling ban was only the first step, timing of the ban was justified

[08:23] {Threei} Hearing vague rumors of a possible ECB announcement later this morning

[08:26] {Threei} Geron Corp Reports positive data on small molecule Telomerase activator in model of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

[08:26] {Threei} - Announced positive data on its orally available small molecule telomerase activator, TAT153, in an animal model of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The data show that administration of TAT153 increased telomerase activity in the lung tissue, reduced inflammation, preserved functional lung tissue, slowed disease progression and attenuated loss of pulmonary function.

[08:27] {dptl} good morning

[08:28] {magoo} theres a new download vad, but my norton anti-virus flagged it

[08:28] {magoo} couldnt download it

[08:31] {Threei} dp :)

[08:31] {Threei} didn't try it yet mags

[08:31] {Threei} hold on, I'll donwload it

[08:32] {nemo} I got it...volume on Level II now have decimal readings

[08:32] {nemo} Other than that, nothing particularly jumps out at me

[08:32] {Threei} downloaded... no problem

[08:33] {Threei} tell your norton it's paranoid

[08:35] {strider} OK here.

[08:51] {magoo} yeah, its a norton issue

[08:51] {Threei} so, Euro bounced some finally eh

[08:51] {magoo} first time that ever happened

[08:51] {magoo} ALWEAYS SOMETHING F'in with me

[08:51] {Threei} wolfpack is running for the cover, frightened and humbled, I suppose

[08:57] {Threei} IT) Italy market regulator (Consob): No plans to pass short-selling ban

[08:57] {Threei} why? Germany thinks it's a good idea

[08:57] {Threei} CZ) Czech Central Bank: Not planning any short selling restrictions

[08:58] {Threei} EUR/CHF Recent strength being partially attributed to think tank report suggesting G7 to get more aggressive in defending the Euro

[08:58] {Threei} lol... they still don't get it

[08:58] {Threei} don't defend Euro, fix the actual problem

[08:59] {Threei} it's not the temperature, it's the inflammation

[08:59] {Les} CHF for its part, spending taxpayers money to do currency swaps to try and keep swiss franc low

[08:59] {Les} I guess they'll buy back when Euro is 20% lower

[09:00] {Les} they're all morons

[09:00] {Threei} very smart eh

[09:00] {Les} morning :)

[09:00] {Threei} why they all think they can fight nature is beyond me

[09:00] {Threei} hi

[09:07] {Threei} larisa :)

[09:07] {larisa} gm :)

[09:09] {strider} DCTH drop

[09:11] {Threei} EU) ECB declines comment on FX speculation circulating in markets

[09:11] {Threei} ***Note that chatter has been heard regarding action to support the euro from leading central banks

[09:13] {dino} gm all

[09:13] {Threei} dino :)

[09:14] {dino} nobody is bigger than the market

[09:14] {Threei} US Treasurer Geithner: Confident Europe can manage through its difficulties; US in a much stronger recovery than expected - CNBC interview

[09:14] {Threei} - asked about German short selling ban, Geithner comments that the history of trade restrictions is "not good."

[09:15] {Threei} wow... I think this is second time during Tim's tenure that I agreed with him

[09:16] {strider} DE CNBC positive comments

[09:16] {nemo} raised guidance on earnings

[09:18] {shorty} good morning

[09:18] {Threei} shorty :)

[09:21] {RonS} buenos dias amigos

[09:21] {Threei} Ron :)

[09:22] {Threei} one thing I realized looking at yesterday's trading guys, must share

[09:22] {Threei} you remember of course long period when we had very brief window of activity in the morning, then long stall

[09:22] {Threei} so we had to grab our trades early

[09:23] {Threei} That has changed, activity in most days is being spread out much more evenly,

[09:23] {lasertrev} morning

[09:23] {Threei} and not pushing the trading yesterday early but instead continuing looking throughout the day, we performed much more evenly

[09:23] {Threei} trev :)

[09:26] {Les} is it not just due to extreme volatility at this moment? VXX is on the up and up. or is it volatility returning to the mean?

[09:27] {dino} mind the gaps

[09:28] {Threei} I've no idea les

[09:28] {Threei} there is just so much I am willing to theorize about the reasons

[09:28] {Les} moi non plus. I've only been here 6 months. I can't tell what "the norm" is... if it exists

[09:29] {Threei} well, necessity to squeeze all your daily trading in 30 min was certainly out of the norm

[09:29] {Les} ok

[09:30] {Les} speaking of volatility up. vxx 30

[10:30] {strider} Rebooted, no firefox, and doing OK right now.
