Feb 25 2009

Beautiful day on both sides, short and long. Shorted CAT twice, played long on RIMM multiple times, plus BAC, STT, GS and whatnot. Profitable trades become bigger lately, well beyond just scalps, while we manage to keep stops to a scalping size.

Session Time: Wed Feb 25 00:00:00 2009

[07:59] {magoo} mornink comrades
[07:59] {Threei}  good morning
[08:01] {Threei}  BAC is knocking on yesterday's high 4.75
[08:01] {magoo} u in? morning btw
[08:02] {Threei}  hi
[08:02] {Threei}  no
[08:02] {magoo} man fslr after hrs hit 147..look here
[08:02] {Threei}  guided flat to lower
[08:02] {nemo} did I miss anything?
[08:02] {magoo} imagine buying 146 
[08:02] {Threei}  not really
[08:03] {magoo} just this nemo..............
[08:03] {Threei}  that would be painful
06[08:03] * magoo slaps nemo around a bit with a large trout
[08:03] {nemo} Ahh...fresh fish for breakfast.  Nothing like cannabilism in the morning!
[08:03] {magoo} jesus...obama referrenced the private jet last nite vad
[08:04] {Threei}  sigh
[08:07] {Threei}  BALTIC DRY BULK INDEX -2.5%, A THIRD STRAIGHT DECLINE
[08:08] {Threei}  what can I say... that was a great speech
[08:12] {nemo} True words are not fine sounding.  Fine sounding words are not true
[08:20] {Threei}  nice BAC
[08:20] {Threei}  fess up magoo
[08:20] {Threei}  I am sure you couldn't resist and grabbed the break
[08:22] {magoo} nope..watching fslr
[08:27] {larisa} good morning
[08:27] {nemo} gm larisa :)
[08:27] {magoo} larisa:)
[08:28] {larisa} nemo, magoo :) what did you do with vad ?
[08:29] {Threei}  larisa :)
[08:29] {larisa} gm:)
[08:31] {Threei}  why do you think he did anything?
[08:34] {Threei}  interesting
[08:34] {Threei}  BAC continues exhibiting strength, FAS is reddish
[08:35] {nemo} what do you mean by "reddish"?
[08:35] {magoo} real money saying speech didnt address banking issues ./..
[08:35] {nemo} duh...he doesn't understand them, how can he address them?
[08:35] {Threei}  ummm... reddish is red but nit by much :)
[08:36] {Threei}  well... to his defense, since when is state of the union speech addresses such specifics
[08:36] {nemo} just want to make sure we're not talking about your favorite wine. "with just a hint of 'ally"
[08:37] {magoo} can u imagine if mccain had won...but thgen we had exact same situation as obama...how bad the media would be all over mccainb
[08:37] {nemo} Then again, after the spike yesterday a little snap-back for both FAS and FAZ could reasonably be expected
[08:37] {magoo} well vad...thats what mkt players were looking for
[08:38] {Threei}  we are supposed to get the details on March 4
[08:38] {nemo} and then we'll march forth....
[08:38] {Threei}  if they expected to hear them in yesterday's speech, that was dumb
[08:39] {Threei}  then again...
[08:39] {magoo} cramer saying u have to start selling today{although he has been a contra of late}
[08:40] {Threei}  start?
[08:40] {Threei}  lol
[08:40] {Threei}  I'd say you had to start selling a year and half ago
[08:41] {Threei}  tioday you'd be finishing
[08:41] {magoo} good one vad
[08:41] {Threei}  but, I don't expect today to be as giddy as yesterday
[08:41] {Threei}  at least not right now
[08:41] {_paliyad2009} finaly found where to type good morning:)
[08:41] {Threei}  good morning paliyad
[08:42] {Threei}  there is just one place for that, lol
[08:42] {Threei}  remember I said yesterday,
[08:42] {magoo} paliy:)
[08:42] {Threei}  as fine as yesterday's rally was,
[08:42] {Threei}  we are not of the woods yet by any stretch of imagination,
[08:43] {Threei}  that was just a taste of things to come, but not a start of consistent bull market yet
[08:43] {Threei}  it's start and stop regime for now
[08:44] {Threei}  so, for now the plan is:
[08:44] {Threei}  withdraw yesterday's "buy anything"
[08:44] {Threei}  and back to "be picky and careful"
[08:47] {Threei}  When asked what he thought the word meant, Bernanke said with a smile, Public-private partnership, I suppose.
[08:47] {Threei}  if that's not a embodiment of hypocrisy
[08:49] {magoo} listened to some ted nugent on ride to work..."mkts got u in a stranglehold baby...so u better get outof its wayyyy"
[08:52] {Threei}  I don't know why but some of major clearing houses yesterday rendered 16 leveraged ETFs "cash only, no margin"
[08:52] {Threei}  including FAS
[08:52] {Threei}  FAZ'
[08:52] {Threei}  and 14 others that we never traded
[08:53] {Threei}  if you want I can post full list
[08:55] {buyemsellem} good morning
[08:55] {nemo} Oh geez...quoting Ted Nugent...the Apocalypse is upon us...wife is pretty hot though
[08:55] {cosmo} First Solar (FSLR.O) shares slid after the closing bell on Tuesday after the designer and manufacturer of solar modules said the short-term outlook for the solar industry has never looked more difficult.   fyi
[08:55] {Threei}  buyem :)
[08:56] {buyemsellem} that's interesting about the "no margin" on those ETF's
[08:56] {buyemsellem} you have any idea why that could be?
[08:56] {nemo} yes...maybe there's pressure about there effect on the market?
[08:57] {Threei}  not really buyem, could be anything,
[08:57] {buyemsellem} I've heard complaints that things like inverse financial ETF's have been part of financials downfall
[08:57] {Threei}  one of guesses:
[08:58] {nemo} That's BS arguably, because if the banking system were in good shape FAS would be through the roof
[08:58] {Threei}  that particular clearing house had to send too many margin calls to traders playing leveraged ETFs
[08:58] {Threei}  and decided to limit their own risk
[08:59] {buyemsellem} OK
[08:59] {buyemsellem} yeah, sounded like a lame excuse to me. Like, yeah, banking sector is actually healthy it's the ETF's fault ha
[08:59] {cosmo} PNTR:  # Pointer Telocation Presents 2008 Results - Revenue of $76.6 Million Exceeds Company GuidancePR Newswire(Wed 4:57am)
[09:00] {Threei}  blame a thermometer for the fever
[09:00] {nemo} shooting the messenger
[09:01] {nemo} "Pull"..."Dropped like a stone."..."I love my peasants."
[09:01] {magoo} we are still oversold...but what  would really kill mkt enthusiam would be a big sell down today
[09:02] {Threei}  did Cramer bash SLW yesterday?
[09:02] {nemo} Yesterday seemed like a technical response to the last week
[09:02] {Threei}  pretty much
[09:03] {Threei}  widespread explanation is, markets reacted on Ben's optimistic forecats
[09:03] {Threei}  which IMO is bs
[09:03] {cosmo} solars seemed to anticipate that speech tho...
[09:03] {nemo} It would make sense to be flat or down today, although one would expect gold and mining stocks to move higher
[09:03] {Onix} gm all
[09:03] {Threei}  amount of IFs he insterted in his forecasts effective made his sppech a "things will be good if things go well"
[09:03] {Threei}  onix :)
[09:04] {Threei}  which in my book is far from a: deep wisdom and b) something inspirational for the market
[09:05] {cosmo} there will be growth ... in the Spring
[09:05] {Threei}  here, spring is here
[09:05] {cosmo} yep
[09:06] {Threei}  closer to opening I'l repost the working asssumption for the day for late arrivales

[09:25] {Threei}  [08:42] {Threei} we are not of the woods yet by any stretch of imagination,
[09:25] {Threei}  [08:43] {Threei} that was just a taste of things to come, but not a start of consistent bull market yet
[09:25] {Threei}  [08:43] {Threei} it's start and stop regime for now
[09:25] {Threei}  [08:44] {Threei} so, for now the plan is:
[09:25] {Threei}  [08:44] {Threei} withdraw yesterday's "buy anything"
[09:25] {Threei}  [08:44] {Threei} and back to "be picky and careful"
[09:25] {dptl} good morning all

[09:26] {larisa} FSLR made bad joke yesterday. Reported magnificent earnings, longs jumped on board. In 30 min in CC issued warning and stated 'difficult" situation, stock dropped 15%.
[09:28] {cosmo} sandbaggers
[09:28] {Threei}  often happens when earnings andguidance are reported separately
[09:28] {dino} i puller 2 bucks out of it in 3 minutes
[09:28] {Threei}  or when CC brings more details
[09:28] {Threei}  wtg dino

[10:01] {Threei}  but in this case it was different
[10:01] {nemo} DENSA all the way
[10:01] {Threei}  it went down too far on original break

[10:18] {nemo} too small a market too few players TOO politically important

[10:19] {KSystems} you gotta feel it in your little finger nemo :)
[10:20] {nemo} the little one?
[10:20] {Threei}  not sure pita
[10:20] {Threei}  I wouldn't
[10:20] {Threei}  one thing to hold the balance with half of profit secured and virtually no risk
[10:20] {Threei}  another is to go in again on this hesitance
[10:20] {nemo} kein witz bezueglich Schwanz, bitte!
[10:21] {Threei}  tinkering with STT I totally missed great RIMM pullback
[10:21] {Threei}  I need another eye
[10:21] {nemo} I was just going to say that
[10:22] {pita} and RMBS
[10:22] {Threei}  not very delighted by RMBS
[10:22] {Threei}  pitiful bounces
[10:24] {Threei}  fern... see how narrow DRYS is?
[10:24] {fernp} yes.
[10:24] {Threei}  market dropped nicely, and all this thing did was 5 cents
[10:25] {fernp} you were right

[10:31] {nemo} SOB yesterday was talking about the huge draw down in gas 
[10:38] {Threei}  CAT doesn't bounce very much
[10:38] {Threei}  and consolidates close to .70 low
[10:38] {nemo} There's a joke in there somewhere
[10:38] {Threei}  lol
[10:39] {Threei}  risk is increasing as it drops, but
[10:39] {Threei}  probably worth a try,
[10:39] {Threei}  .70 short with stop above .85
[10:39] {nemo} It's hanging (by it's claws) to support from yesterday
[10:40] {Threei}  for hard core scalpers, stop above .80
[10:40] {Threei}  yesterday's support is .40
[10:40] {Threei}  good 30 cents lower
[10:40] {cosmo} cat came back the very next day ..... i seem to recall...
[10:40] {nemo} so that run along .80 isn't support?
[10:41] {Threei}  ?
[10:41] {Threei}  not sure I understand
[10:41] {Threei}  what run along?
[10:42] {nemo} the .80-85 area between 12:30 and 13:30
[10:42] {Threei}  scalpers have 1:1
[10:42] {nemo} cover and long around .50?
[10:42] {Threei}  no long
[10:42] {nemo} o.k. 
[10:43] {Threei}  yesterday's low is .42, right?
[10:44] {Threei}  that line along .80 from yesterday can't be a support right now because we are already below it
[10:44] {Threei}  non-scalpers have 1:1
[10:44] {pita} great timing w mkt drop, ty
[10:44] {Threei}  welcome sir

[15:33] {cosmo} well .. its more polite
[15:34] {Threei}  today was the great illustration:
[15:34] {dino} -paliyad, welcome to the jungle
[15:34] {Threei}  we had very profitable morning during bearish move
[15:34] {Threei}  but no one was having fun as far as I could tell
