Nov 19 2008

Another miserable day for the markets. Trading is choppy. A few good trades, a few stops, then couple nice hits on GS and UAUA made a day profitable at about average level. But fun it isn't, too much like work

[14:33] {Threei}  I find this bickering about their private jets meaningless and idiotic
[14:34] {dino} you know, it's simply yes or no. move on the election is over. i vote no, and send them to debtor in possession bankruptcy
[14:35] {Threei}  yes
[14:35] {dino} new dji low
[14:35] {Threei}  but all this "how did you arrive here, commercial or private" is just populist and has nothing to do with real issues
[14:36] {dino} even having it on tv is b.s
[14:36] {Threei}  anyone expecting CEO of compnay of this scale to travel by bus or train or commercial has no idea what he is talking about
[14:37] {Threei}  it's nothing but play on the lowest kind of emotions of population

[14:56] {Threei}  watch market for another spike, UAUA will follow
[14:56] {dawg} OK
[14:58] {magoo} reload here
[15:00] {Onix} In for lunch, hope you people had a good morning's trading
[15:01] {dino} stopped -.50
[15:02] {Onix} Vad, could you please take a look at BRCM and take a guess for me howcome it can hold $14 all morning?
[15:03] {Threei}  who knows
[15:03] {Threei}  maybe found its bottom for now
[15:03] {Onix} I shorted it at $13.99 before i left for work and it is still there
[15:04] {dino} you have the magoo curse onix
[15:04] {dino} rinsed
[15:05] {dino} mcd sm l .50
[15:05] {Threei}  UAUA didn't drop this time with market
[15:06] {Threei}  still needs help of course
[15:06] {Threei}  but gotta be good if any comes
[15:08] {lisa_jay} how to play UAUA vad?
[15:08] {Threei}  not an entry here lisa
[15:09] {Threei}  you missed pullback to .80
[15:09] {Threei}  [14:56] {Threei} watch market for another spike, UAUA will follow
[15:09] {Threei}  [14:56] {dawg} OK
[15:09] {Threei}  [14:58] {magoo} reload here
[15:09] {lisa_jay} Ok, thanks...

[15:09] {dawg} OK threei
[15:09] {dawg} got  in
[15:09] {magoo} ok boss took .12
[15:10] {Threei}  partialed out dawg?
[15:10] {dawg} still in 
[15:10] {dawg} all
[15:10] {Threei}  next spike should take it over .20 but let's respect the volatility and protect half
[15:10] {dawg} got it
[15:11] {Threei}  original idea was:
[15:11] {Threei}  [14:42] {Threei} still wastching, any market meaninfgul recovery should take UAUA up about 50 cents
[15:11] {Threei}  we got over 30 cents
[15:11] {Threei}  assuming entry around .80
[15:13] {Threei}  let's go UAUA, market gives "all clear"
06[15:13] * Threei kicks UAUA in the left jet
[15:16] {Threei}  rally is not very convincing so far
[15:16] {lisa_jay} qs need to break that .82
[15:16] {dawg} dawg spins several prayer wheels
[15:17] {dino} lol, i just throw the dice
[15:17] {Threei}  for UAUA it will be enough even if Qs just bounce back there I think, lisa
[15:18] {dawg} stopped last half
[15:19] {Threei}  see... volatility must be respected :)
[15:19] {dawg} Yes sir
[15:19] {Threei}  imagine not securing half around 9.10...
[15:19] {Threei}  how insulting would that be
[15:19] {dawg} would hurt the dawg
[15:22] {dino} dia sm l .65
[15:24] {dino} uh oh
[15:24] {Threei}  wow
[15:25] {Threei}  C
[15:26] {dino} 3i, you see, not allowed 2 up days in row in november
[15:27] {dino} 4 days so far for the month
[15:27] {dino} 3 days
[15:27] {Threei}  and none of them back to back?
[15:28] {lisa_jay} Isn't Nov a bullish month?
[15:28] {Threei}  we still have 10 days
[15:28] {lisa_jay} historically?
[15:28] {dino} yes
[15:28] {Threei}  scalped C... was too scary to call
[15:28] {dino} bs month this year tho
[15:29] {patience} i second that
[15:29] {dino} ty
[15:29] {dino} out dia .05 +.40
[15:30] {dino} just had a daytrader stop in and ask to rent an office off me
[15:30] {Threei}  seriously?
[15:30] {dino} didn't know we had any others here
[15:30] {dino} yes
[15:31] {dino} 8 years e-minis
[15:31] {Threei}  why does he need an office?
[15:31] {dino} renting elsewhere, not as nice
[15:32] {lisa_jay} Probably has kids come home early from school
[15:32] {dino} y
[15:32] {dino} that too.
[15:32] {dino} comraderie also i think
[15:33] {KSystems} where are you located dino?
[15:33] {dino} told her no tho, don't think she'd appreciate it when we go off on a bad trade rant
[15:33] {Threei}  close office dorr, put a sign on saying "come in if living to see the next morning is not in your plans"
[15:33] {lisa_jay} I wonder how the commute would be from NY/ct border to your office.  
[15:33] {dino} pennsylvania
[15:33] {KSystems} ah ok
[15:33] {dino} long lisa
[15:33] {dino} ok, 3:40 rally?
[15:34] {KSystems} not many things i know about pennsylvania..except....Centralia :-) that near where you live?
[15:34] {lisa_jay} thats what i thought.
[15:34] {dino} 2 hrs ks
[15:34] {lisa_jay} * about commute.
[15:34] {dino} y
[15:35] {dino} just jumped 70
[15:35] {dino} vad, you may owe me a beer, i told her to check out the site
[15:36] {Threei}  but we don't ttrade e-minis per se
[15:36] {dino} dia sm l .50
[15:37] {dino} i know, comraderie
[15:37] {Threei}  which won't prevent me from buying a beer of course
[15:37] {dino} could use one today
[15:38] {dino} hit/miss day
[15:38] {Threei}  for the most part... then GS and UA trades brightened things
[15:41] {Threei}  1 min till rally?
[15:42] {Threei}  or not today?
[15:42] {dino} i am so sick of seeing my b-day come up on the dji on almost daily basis, for years never saw it
[15:43] {patience} march 17?
[15:43] {dino} yes
[15:43] {dino} used to like that number
[15:43] {patience} just think of the green beer instead
[15:44] {dino} lol
[15:44] {dino} stop dia -.40
[15:44] {dino} see hit./miss
[15:45] {patience} you're doing better than me dino, usually by this time of day I'm muttering, those bastards
[15:45] {patience} time to go mow the lawn
[15:45] {dino} snow on mine
[15:46] {patience} oak leaves on mine
[15:46] {Threei}  geese droppings on mine
[15:46] {dino} not a good close
[15:46] {Threei}  no
[15:46] {Threei}  YAYA new low
[15:46] {Threei}  U
[15:46] {magoo} 400 down WHAT RALLY
[15:46] {Threei}  C new low
[15:47] {Threei}  how is it not rally?
[15:47] {Threei}  just different direction
[15:47] {Threei}  but we are not discriminating rallies by direction, are we
[15:48] {peterg} newspeak: stocks rallied strongly negatively today
[15:48] {Threei}  there you go
[15:48] {Threei}  Orwell knew his languages
[15:48] {KSystems} Like "Strongly preparing for recovery"?
[15:48] {dino} hate to say it, but feels like we go down to break the 7884 low
[15:48] {peterg} scarily
[15:49] {peterg} Stocks deepened their search for fundamental solidity
[15:49] {Threei}  beautiful
[15:49] {KSystems} collect them and send them to some news agency
[15:50] {KSystems} they'll be out of stock soon
[15:50] {peterg} ;p;
[15:50] {peterg} lol
[15:50] {dino} the stability they talked about earlier is "un"real
[15:50] {Threei}  market improved its coordination with real valuations
[15:50] {peterg} rofl
[15:51] {Threei}  yeah, that line was from behind the looking glass
[15:51] {Threei}  truly bizarre
[15:52] {Threei}  [12:51] {Threei} US TREASURY'S KASHKARI: TREASURY. FDIC, AND FED HAVE STABILIZED MARKETS
[15:52] {dino} maybe he was thinking only worry now about the dowside, because it doesn't go up
[15:52] {Threei}  I hope they don't overstabilize it
[15:53] {Threei}  just a tad more stability as they understand it, and we will see Dow at 1929 levels
[15:54] {dptl} have a good evening all
[15:54] {Threei}  take care dp
[15:57] {Threei}  -433 DJI
[15:59] {dino} cya dp
[15:59] {Threei}  so, in light of today's action...
[15:59] {Threei}  wqhat was yesterday's AH rally about again??
[16:00] {Threei}  such spike, after hours, total illusion of "wow, someone big knows something good"
[16:00] {dino} ge 14
[16:00] {Threei}  only to see this misery today lol
[16:00] {dino} re-balancing of s&p 3i, bud out
[16:01] {Threei}  I heard that theory
[16:01] {dino} had like 50 billion to reallocate
[16:01] {Threei}  just not sure how it explains such spike in indexes
[16:01] {dino} it doesn't, imo, and the futures imo don't mean sh#t
[16:01] {Threei}  mechanics of reallocation as I understand them do not warrant this
[16:01] {dino} everything has gone total random
[16:02] {Threei}  ok guys, thank you all
[16:02] {dino} when the dji moves 100 pts in 2 minutes up/down, it's random
[16:02] {Threei}  have a good evening, see you tomorrow
[16:02] {KSystems} take care vad
[16:02] {dino} i am going back to basics again, simply scalp machine tomorrow
[16:03] {dino} get up, get out
[16:03] {peterg} gnight all--who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?
[16:03] {peterg} the shadow knows.........
[16:03] {dino} lol
[16:03] {peterg} of course, that was my nickname back in the day
[16:04] {peterg} or one of them
