[11:34] {cosmo} IOTN needs to hold .25 imo
[11:44] {cosmo} IOTN needs to hold 6 ..at this point
[11:52] {Threei} quick selling under 6 will be worth trying for bounce
[11:54] {Threei} if holding, 6.03 for a scalp with stop right under 6
[11:54] {Threei} I would prefer a selloff under 6 though
[11:55] {magoo} me too boss
[11:55] {magoo} u see brcm got us again?
[11:55] {Threei} well, it just followed the market which is totally out of whack today
[11:56] {Threei} we wouldn't hold it through a bounce that reached .40
[11:57] {Threei} ESLR took hard beating today
[11:58] {magoo} u in IOTN?
[11:58] {Threei} yeah
[11:58] {Threei} I suspect mostly to practicew fingers

[12:04] {Threei} funny... 1 was hit at .14
[12:05] {Threei} what's up with TASR?
[12:31] {Threei} this time IOTN loses 6 or I am not biting
[12:38] {Threei} 8.76 long TASR if holding above .60
[12:55] {Threei} Ok guysd, let's call it a day... a very very boring one
