Dec 03 2010

Very quiet but profitable day. No interesting charts to show, but we had a few this week, so deserved a good weekend, and for many A Taoist Trader Online Course is a weekend reading. I've received quite a few great responses to it, so I expect new readers to enjoy it as well.

Session Time: Fri Dec 03 00:00:01 2010
[08:25] {davd} gm all, jobs in 5
[08:25] {davd} getting cold here in nyc
[08:30] {Threei}  mornng
[08:30] {nemo} wtf just happened
[08:30] {Threei}  well, just remember that poem
[08:30] {nemo} It's Cold?
[08:31] {Threei}  *(US) NOV UNEMPLOYMENT RATE: 9.8% V 9.6%E
[08:31] {nemo} ahhh
[08:31] {Threei}  *(US) NOV AVERAGE HOURLY EARNING M/M: 0.0% V 0.2%E; AVERAGE WEEKLY HOURS: 34.3 V 34.3E
[08:31] {Threei}  - Prior Average Hourly Earning MoM revised higher from 0.2% to 0.3%
[08:32] {Threei}  *(US) NOV CHANGE IN NONFARM PAYROLLS: 39K V 150KE; CHANGE IN PRIVATE PAYROLLS: 50K V 158KE
[08:32] {Threei}  - Change in Manufacturing. Payrolls: -13K v 5Ke
[08:32] {nemo} buy the f_____g dips!
[08:32] {Threei}  - Prior Change in Nonfarm Payrolls revised higher from 151K to 172K
[08:32] {Threei}  - Prior Change in Private Payrolls revised higher from 159K to 160K
[08:32] {Threei}  - Prior Change in Manufacturing. Payrolls revised lower from -7K to -11K
[08:33] {nemo} spy stopped right at pivot support
[08:34] {davd} ""huge dissappoint", "nothing good" - might keep the market down for 5 minutes.  imo market will close higher.
[08:35] {RonS} ISM is more important, imo
[08:35] {RonS} stunning reversal in Treasuries though
[08:36] {nemo} yeah, and all the manufacturing numbers have been huge...I think if that's in line...BOOM, even a bit negative
[08:36] {RonS} what is the split of private payrolls v gov job losses?
[08:38] {RonS} 10 yr yield went from 3.062 to 2.926 in an instant
[08:38] {nemo} bad news is good, good news is better
[08:38] {nemo} remember, there was an expectation that unemployment  rate would likely go up as unemployed look to get back into the work force
[08:41] {RonS} ...but factory jobs -13k, retail -28k
[08:42] {nemo} what's your point?
[08:42] {nemo} bad news is good, good news is better
[08:43] {RonS} eur moonshot v $, cliffdive v yen
[08:43] {nemo} that's what's been working
[08:43] {nemo} should expect euro up after it's been beaten up, and what has been the relationship to the $ for the market?
[08:44] {nemo} $ down market up, except for the last two weeks of the euro crisis
[08:44] {RonS} the point is that yes, the unemployment % can increase w/ labor force participation up, but job losses or not are absolute
[08:44] {RonS} other than the fact that they get constantly revised
[08:44] {nemo} yep
[08:45] {nemo} 121.76 and 121.24 are important on the spy, they get through those, we got issues
[08:54] {davd} haven't seen one positive interpretation of this report.  very unusual to be 100% negative
[08:54] {davd} thanks for numbers nemo
[08:54] {nemo} spy sitting on pivot support
[08:54] {nemo} sure davd
[08:55] {nemo} davd...if you want to get the market down to get in at better prices, what do you do?
[08:56] {nemo} notice on the report,  unemployment rate up, but so aren't the absolute number of employed
[08:58] {nemo} Now, Ron...one could argue we're due for some downward movement, imo watch those two levels on the spy, if we end up below them...as I said issues
[08:58] {nemo} If we end up between them, still bullish
[08:58] {nemo} above them, definitely bullish
[08:59] {ese} mornin
[08:59] {davd} i buy, that always brings the market down.
[08:59] {Threei}  ese :)
[09:00] {davd} Demark Bearish support for spy is 121.85,  if goes below bearish (same level as spy pivot support)
[09:02] {RonS} the employment situation is a lagging indicator...the ISM is the key to the day
[09:03] {ese} this theory is the only one that works......."the market goes up except when it doesn't and......it's goes down except when it doesn't"
[09:04] {Threei}  you can feel the taoist philosophy permeating ese
[09:04] {RonS} you're sounding like your girlfriend...
[09:04] {RonS} :D
[09:05] {stewy} morning all
[09:05] {Threei}  stewy :)
[09:06] {RonS} is it appropriate to ask...what's cooking?
[09:06] {stewy} takes me an hour to cook minute rice
[09:06] {RonS} lol
[09:07] {Threei}  CISG Exec: OLP Global report that questioned CISG's accounting was untrue and merely an attempt to smear the company - conf call
[09:07] {Threei}  - Says previously explained the accounting methodology behind its incentive plan for its sales agent
[09:08] {harth} good morning all!
[09:08] {Les} buy now and sell to another fool lower
[09:08] {Threei}  harth :)
[09:08] {Les} oops
[09:09] {RonS} OLP was short...this scam has been run before and will be again.  Problem is that you know someone in China has to be cooking the books...just like anywhere else.
[09:10] {ese} ahhhhhhhh.....theres nothing finer than your first coffee in the morning
[09:10] {RonS} uhhh, your first beer of the afternoon?...
[09:10] {nemo} Vodka at wakeup

[09:19] {ese} hey nemo.......I need an estimate......how long does it take to drive from Boston to Toronto...any idea
[09:19] {Threei}  wow, talk about distorted logic:
[09:19] {Threei}  Euro vs US Dollar USD maintain soft tone in the aftermath of payroll data
[09:19] {Threei}  - Dealers noted that the weaker US Non-Farm payroll data and higher unemployment rate vindicated the Fed';s launch of QE2 and provided catalyst for the greenback to end the week on a weaker note. Spot gold moved back above the $1,400/oz level
[09:19] {nemo} mapquest it dude
[09:19] {Les} morn davd
[09:20] {nemo} I've flown to Toronto, that's it

[15:21] {Threei}  wow
[15:21] {Threei}  :)
[15:21] {nemo} think swm goes to 55.85, if it drops below that, probably retest of the bottom
[15:22] {dino} bloody
[15:24] {nemo} actually, there is a gap back around the beginning of September, if it closes above it may retest that which is between 54.85 and 54.15
[15:25] {nemo} almost touching 23.6 retracement
[15:26] {dino} saw that, watch for monday
[15:30] {nemo} watch 53.56 too
[15:31] {nemo} spy looks like ready to bust out on monday
[15:32] {nemo} no resistance between here and 124.70 or so

[15:47] {Les} its at resistance now. taking a wait and see approach
[15:48] {Les} fat free bacon and 15 years?
[15:48] {patience} slw is a favourite of mine, just need the conditions to trade it using my style  :)
[15:48] {Threei}  nice try but no

Thursday, December 2, 2010

Nicely profitable day with various trades and directions. See Catch of the Day below.


The trade is a classic double top formation. Let's go over elements (annotated on the chart) giving us the trade structure. First top is made on a high volume and the candle has upward tail showing rejection. Second top comes with much lower volume further shaping up the idea of the trade. Now we need clear trigger for entry - and that is indicated by the next candle establishing nice tight range between .70 and .80. Now .70 break becomes our short trigger with stop placed either above the upper envelope of this range or above the first top - in this particular trade the difference is mere 2 cents so it doesn't mater much which to use. Breakdown leads us into clean quick 1:2 risk/reward with no slightest attempt to jeopardize the stop.

Much better day with quite a few good plays. Nice Catch of the Day too.


Our readers will have no troubles recognizing this play, so in order to provide a raw material for learning purposes I will put minimum annotations on the chart. Hint: see price part of the chart for the one of triangle formations, and volume part to get a clue for the likely direction.

[11:31] {Threei}  what I mean in that comment is:
[11:31] {Threei}  CAT chart by itself looks nice for breakout,
[11:31] {Threei}  but this kind of breaks requires market directional help
[11:31] {Threei}  and at this point I can't rely on it,
[11:32] {Threei}  market gapped up, help the gap nicely, returned to the high
[11:32] {Threei}  which is more often a prelude to day-long stall
[11:32] {Threei}  than to a continuing march up
[11:33] {davd} ii

[12:22] {Threei}  (US) Fed's Bullard: Not opposed to ending dual policy mandate (jobs and price stability) - Fox Business News
[12:22] {Threei}  - US economy is "very close" to seeing a strong recover in 2011.
[12:22] {Threei}  - Opposes raising any taxes, calls on Obama Administration to extend tax cuts.
[12:22] {Threei}  ***Reminder: On 11/17 Bullard stated that removing the dual mandate and moving towards single mandate of price stability is an 'interesting idea'
[12:26] {dino} bvn sm l .50
[12:27] {RonS} Congress passed those mandates in 1946...when did a single mandate become interesting? can these people ever quit sounding like morons?
[12:27] {dino} no
[12:27] {Threei}  how can they?
[12:28] {Threei}  see, on a personal basis most of them are bright
[12:28] {Threei}  some are mornons to be sure, but that's rarher exception on such level
[12:28] {Threei}  but consider the position they are in
[12:28] {RonS} ergo "sounding like"
[12:29] {Threei}  deep inside, almost all of them know what a deep sh*t country is in, and most importantly - realize the role Fed played in it
[12:29] {Threei}  so what are they to do, call for their own abolishment?
[12:29] {dino} and they played in it
[12:30] {Threei}  right
[12:30] {Threei}  also, as much asd I would be all for Fed abolishment,
[12:30] {Threei}  two things give me pause
[12:31] {Threei}  1. making transition to a new system without causing total collapse is a task for giants - and we have none of those, all I see is ants
[12:31] {Threei}  2. who said central bank run by govt is going to be more resoonsible?
[12:32] {dino} it will not be
[12:32] {Threei}  so what's the point? :)
[12:32] {dino} i'm not for abolishing fed
[12:33] {Threei}  I am, ultimately
[12:33] {Threei}  with eventual purpose in mind: stop meddling with rates
[12:34] {Threei}  let market regulate them, and only take good care of rpeventing monopoly and collusions
[12:35] {Threei}  the idea of a few people deciding on such major factor with no regard to market but based on their, a few peopl,e, views is abhirrent to me
[12:35] {Threei}  abhorrent too
[12:36] {nemo} mos above 67

[12:43] {RonS} lol
[12:44] {nemo} stewy?
[12:44] {Threei}  What could the big announcement be? Chances are it has something to do with the recent discovery by the NASA-led international Cassini-Huygens mission of a tentative atmosphere containing both oxygen and carbon dioxide on the surface of Saturn's moon Rhea.
[12:44] {RonS} always wondered why you resemble E.T.

[12:54] {Threei}  glad to hear
[12:54] {Threei}  it will progress to more and more practical things
[12:54] {Threei}  kind of going from forrest to the trees
[12:55] {Threei}  laying foundation first, building walls and roof second
[12:55] {Threei}  shaping up the interior then
[12:55] {Threei}  and putting on landscaping options for curbe appeal :)
[12:55] {harth} Cool, I really don't want to put it down but a guys gotta sleep sometime:)
[12:56] {ese} " to take or not to take"....this is the question i ask of thee or wise and learned one......stld up .12 3k worth........hmmmmmmmm
[12:56] {Threei}  sleep is overrated
[12:56] {Threei}  just a few decades more, and we will have all the time for sleep we ever want
[12:56] {RonS} omg
[12:57] {RonS} that's why i started trading
[12:57] {RonS} said to self:  why and who are you trying to impress?
[12:57] {RonS} ...in 50 years absolutely noone will give a sh&t what you did
[12:58] {RonS} Do what you want...
[12:58] {Threei}  that's why I took to writing
[12:58] {Threei}  at least something will remain for those few who still can read
[12:59] {Threei}  but I completely on board with that view ron
[12:59] {harth} Same here
[12:59] {Threei}  do what you enjoy
[12:59] {Threei}  there are always people here and there, especially on internet forums, who take this qeird line of attack:
[13:00] {Threei}  weird
[13:00] {Threei}  why would you want to write trading books, courses, give seminars, teach, run the room, if you can jjst trade for yourself?
[13:00] {Threei}  obviously the retuirn from trading dwarfs all that
[13:01] {Threei}  I have very simple answer:
[13:01] {Threei}  because I enjoy doing all that
[13:01] {RonS} but who would be the audience for your jokes?
[13:01] {Threei}  that too
[13:01] {Threei}  who else I could make listen to those
[13:01] {Threei}  some like trading,
[13:01] {Threei}  some teaching in all its forms,
[13:01] {Threei}  some like writing or public speaking
[13:02] {Threei}  I happen to like all of that
[13:02] {Threei}  and yes, I am a freak who enjoys public speaking
[13:02] {Threei}  so I try to do all that
[13:02] {Threei}  why do I make photos?
[13:02] {dino} uti to flat
[13:02] {Threei}  they take a lot of time, and miniscule income I make of them does not even pay for gear
[13:02] {dino} bvn too
[13:04] {Threei}  but my photos won three contests, published on many websites and in some magazines, used by designers in various venbues
[13:04] {Threei}  and I am compiling a photo book
[13:04] {Threei}  there are galleries that expressed early interest in a few of them
[13:04] {Threei}  this is just so satisfying
[13:05] {Threei}  probably impossible to undertsnad for those who ask that question measuring every possible return in dollars only
[13:06] {dino} vad, you're getting deep
[13:06] {Threei}  done with that, sorry
[13:06] {Threei}  back to my normal shallow self
[13:06] {dino} just busting you buddy
