[11:03] {Threei}  that was what caused this market spike
[11:03] {Threei}  Ron... here comes the relief for your Greece news deprivation:
[11:03] {Threei}  (GR) Dutch Fin Min: reiterates Greece needs to show more progress on privatization and fiscal reform before getting any more aid
[11:03] {Threei}  - Concerned about Greece causing a chain reaction if it fails to follow through on reforms.
[11:06] {gregns} so seeing UUP at it's high and most likely going to retrace prompted you to make the fcx call, or at least help with it?
[11:06] {Threei}  help, yes
[11:06] {Threei}  but initial idea was simply a valid setup;
[11:06] {gregns} ty
[11:06] {Threei}  consolidation under .60, forming a break
[11:07] {Threei}  then losing .50 support that invalidated that idea,
[11:07] {Threei}  but forming clear double bottom instead
[11:07] {gregns} ok

May 23 2011

Slightly negative day as stops outnumbered wins. Hectic jumps up and down with no rhyme - not really my kind of market. Or it was simply a time to have a losing day finally.

[09:07] {davd} trade what you see, not what you think.  markets been up a quite a bit since europe prob came to be.  could be a suckers drop this morning?
[09:08] {Threei}  my view is, markets simply reflected temporary relief while crisis was being papered over
[09:09] {Threei}  sooner or later that had to be called
[09:09] {Threei}  and it's happening,
[09:09] {Threei}  with a nasty twist:
[09:09] {Threei}  from little pimples, like Greece, Ireland and Portugal, to big cahuna - Spain
[09:10] {Threei}  which actually was predicted jusrt as well
[09:10] {davd} ... and the hesitancy of the northern frey to chip in a help
[09:10] {larisa} gm :)
[09:10] {Threei}  but as always, markets work against the obvious
[09:10] {Threei}  larisa :)

[10:49] {samire} did u give any alchohol  ?????
[10:50] {ese} thats part of the deal when you sign on....vad sends a case of your favorite over
[10:51] {ese} stops you from over thinking when you trade
[10:51] {Threei}  hmmm
[10:51] {Threei}  I thought it was other way around
[10:51] {ese} lol
[10:52] {ese} you do however sluuur you salllables alot
[10:52] {Threei}  not I know why I never got a case of Russian Standard from you, and why I am getting all these daily e-mails from you demanding your case of Chardonne
[10:52] {Threei}  not = now
[10:52] {ese} lol
[10:53] {Threei}  look at SPY
[10:53] {Threei}  this quite weird drop followed by immediate spike
[10:53] {Threei}  happens sometimes... but today it seems to be all that is happening
[10:54] {Threei}  most often such things are caused by news, but there is none
[10:54] {RonS} tight correlation w/ eur action 3i
[10:54] {Threei}  yes, very
[10:54] {Threei}  here is my 2 cents guys, on Europe
[10:55] {Threei}  I'll have to express respectful disagreement with your point of view that Europe is old news
[10:55] {Threei}  to me it feels this way:
[10:55] {Threei}  it's an ongoing crisis, and it's a very liquid situation,
[10:55] {ese} hmmmmm
[10:56] {Threei}  where fear of resolution and hope to see the can being kicked further down the road compete
[10:56] {Threei}  players know that resolution will be ugly,
[10:56] {ese} ok.....i can buy that but this has been out there
[10:57] {Threei}  thus, it's not about whether resolution will or will not be happy,
[10:57] {Threei}  it's about whether it comes NOW
[10:57] {Threei}  ort wthether they manage to stave it off again
[10:57] {Threei}  if they do, today's players don't care about what happens 3 years from now,
[10:57] {Threei}  they trade in the NOW
[10:57] {Threei}  and they will pocket a lot of money between now and 3 years later
[10:58] {ese} an excuse to create some volitility
[10:58] {Threei}  so, any sign of things being stabilized get bought
[10:58] {Threei}  not because major players sincerely believe in stability
[10:59] {Threei}  but simply because end of the world tomorrow leaves the window to trade today
[10:59] {dino} i'll give you that, but players also know that it will be extended
[10:59] {Threei}  and that's exactly why Euro rallies, market does too
[10:59] {dino} it will be a brady bond plan for eupore
[10:59] {ese} hense the volitility argument
[11:00] {Threei}  and any sign of troubles brewing in a more serious way kills Euro and market,
[11:00] {Threei}  because as much as they believe in stabilzing measures working for a while,
[11:00] {dino} which, imo, are reasons to buy
[11:00] {Threei}  they also know that things can change on a dime
[11:01] {Threei}  situation in many countries are volatile, social pressures are huge
[11:01] {Threei}  and it takes just one of them to cave
[11:01] {Threei}  and contagin will spread like fire
[11:01] {Threei}  contagion too

May 19 2011

Boring and profitable - another day in the office. Linkedin IPO provided some fun though. Chart below is a perfect illustration to mass insanity.





Session Time: Thu May 19 00:00:00 2011
[09:03] {Threei}  for Ron:
[09:03] {Threei}  (GR) The main option now to consider for Greece is for banks to commit to maintaining steady holdings of Greek bonds - financial press citing sources
[09:03] {Threei}  - Any form of restructuring that would cause credit event is not an option; credit event would cuase paying out CDS
[09:03] {Threei}  - Voluntary deal with investors could be part of new Greek reforms, austerity and additional EU/IMF funding from 2011-14; the option would include not selling down banks' positions held in Greek debt, and buying some Greek bonds to replace issues that matured over the length of the programme
[09:03] {Threei}  - In the event of restructuring, the ECB would decline Greek bonds as collateral
[09:05] {RonS} gm...always good to know...
[09:05] {Threei}  :)
[09:14] {samire} GM
[09:14] {Threei}  morning samire
[09:17] {RonS} evidence of a changed world:
[09:17] {RonS} Goodrich (GR) has been selected by Russian Helicopters, JSC to provide the main rotor actuator and hydraulic power supply for its upgraded Mi-34C1 light helicopter. The agreement includes research and development, original equipment supply and aftermarket support for both units. Prototypes for flight tests have already been produced by Goodrich's Actuation Sy
[09:17] {RonS} Goodrich's Actuation Systems business with entry into service planned for late 2012.
[09:18] {RonS} kinda funnywhen you consider that heicoters were invented by a russian immigrant, Sikorsky

Combined with other important protections from the Affordable Care Act, these new rules will help lower insurance costs by moderating premium hikes and provide consumers with greater value for their premium dollar. In 2011, this will mean rate increases of 10-percent or more must be reviewed by state or federal officials.

[10:55] {nemo} 2 3dayers in a row?
[10:55] {nemo} duh?  check the market holiday schedule
[10:55] {Threei}  we have them differently in Canada

[11:02] {RonS} ducky

[11:03] {Threei}  USO looks toppy...
[11:03] {Threei}  but if UUP loses .55, it won't reverse down
[11:03] {dino} quack
[11:04] {Threei}  let's try it as safe as possible
[11:04] {Threei} Short Setup: USO  .45 break
[11:04] {Threei}  if stays under .50
[11:04] {Threei}  negligible stop

[11:11] {Threei}  scalp only most likely
[11:11] {nemo} look at .99 bids
[11:12] {Threei}  so let them melt a bit and grab your shares when bid goes down to reasonable size
[11:12] {Threei}  just tactics of entry
[11:12] {nemo} yeah...I was just pointing it out for Les
[11:12] {nemo} oh....he's not here
[11:12] {Threei}  "fine-tuning your entry with Level 2", scalping videocourse
[11:13] {Threei}  USO...
[11:13] {Threei}  UUP upticks kill it now
[11:21] {dino} afl sm l .00
[11:21] {RonS} dino dks?
[11:22] {dino} 37.03 gap
[11:23] {dino} i like it close to that
[11:25] {Threei}  feel free to take profit on NVDA as you see fit
[11:25] {Threei}  not expecting much from it
[11:28] {Threei}  I am 2/3 out
[11:28] {Threei}  stop to .01 for the balance
[11:30] {Threei}  can't believe USO rinsed me by 1 cent, lol
[11:31] {Threei}  it's just wrong
[11:31] {Threei}  must be jf's fault
[11:33] {jfjf64} lol
[11:34] {RonS} fcx 48 break s w/ some consolidation below .05?
[11:34] {Threei}  I like the idea,
[11:34] {Threei}  just not delighted by this last spike which broke downtrending channel
[11:35] {RonS} yep
[11:35] {Threei}  can be repaired by new consolidation
[11:35] {RonS} k
[11:35] {Threei}  but don't go for it if it jujst drops into support in one gasp
[11:50] {dino} afl stopped while out -.31
[11:52] {dino} snn spike
[12:00] {dino} hum-dee-dum

[12:21] {dino} watching it
[12:22] {Threei}  acvtually, could be bottoming out
[12:22] {Threei}  I'd say,
[12:22] {Threei} Long Setup:  AFL  .25 if holding .15
[12:23] {Threei}  with target about 1:5
[12:24] {dino} feels like 49.80s then bounce
[12:27] {nemo} .20 break?
[12:27] {Threei}  if you like aggressive
[12:27] {nemo} fine
[12:27] {Threei}  with all its advantages and shortcomings
[12:27] {nemo} stop picking on my height
[12:28] {Threei}  sorry
[12:28] {nemo} u know I'm the sensitive type
[12:28] {Threei}  but I do not discriminate what I am picking on
[12:28] {Threei}  height, width...
[12:29] {Threei}  still valid IMO
[12:29] {nemo} even more so
[12:30] {Threei}  these little nibbles under support, immediately rejected, do not invalidate the setup
[12:30] {nemo} validates .21 entry
[12:30] {Threei}  remaking it to .10 - .20 nakes sense
[12:30] {Threei}  esepcially considering that big offer at .20
[12:30] {Threei}  right
[12:33] {Threei}  now it's invalidated
[12:33] {Threei}  next area of interest is dino's 49.80

[14:02] {Threei}  *FOMC MINUTES OF APRIL 27 MEETING: HAD DETAILED EXIT STRATEGY TALKS, MBS RUN OFF AS FIRST STRATEGY STEP
[14:02] {Threei}  - Normalizing the stance of policy would entail the withdrawal of the current extraordinary degree of accommodation at the appropriate time, while normalizing the conduct of policy would involve draining the large volume of reserve balances in the banking system and shrinking the overall size of the balance sheet, as well as returning the SOMA to its historical composition of essentially only Treasury securities. The presentation noted a few key issues that the Committee would need to address in deciding on its approach to normalization
[14:04] {Threei}  - Most participants saw changes in the target for the federal funds rate as the preferred active tool for tightening monetary policy when appropriate. A number of participants noted that it would be advisable to begin using the temporary reserves-draining tools in advance of an increase in the Committee's federal funds rate target

[12:34] {Threei}  - Positive results from a pivotal phase 3 open-label clinical trial evaluating long-term safety and efficacy of the investigational drug avanafil for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) were presented at the 2011 Annual Meeting of the American Urological Association in Washington, D.C. The top-line results had been previously reported; however, the presentation by Dr. Belkoff marks the first time these results have been presented at a major medical meeting.
[12:34] {Threei}  - The study met all primary endpoints by demonstrating sustained improvement from baseline in erectile function as measured by the Sexual Encounter Profile (both SEP 2 and SEP 3) and improvements in the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF). The study also indicated that successful intercourse (as measured by SEP 3) was achieved as early as 15 minutes, consistent with results from previously reported phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled studies.
