May 06 2009

Fairly nice day with a few plays on financials (BAC, WFC etc), casinos (MGM, LVS) and dryshipper EGLE.


Session Time: Wed May 06 00:00:00 2009

[08:12] {magoo} morning
[08:14] {Threei} good morning
[08:15] {Threei} APR ADP EMPLOYMENT CHANGE: -491K V -645KE
[08:15] {Threei} all is wel
[08:15] {Threei} well too
[08:16] {magoo} less decline than expected
[08:19] {magoo} FIG news vad?
[08:20] {Threei} 05/06/09 07:10am
[08:20] {Threei} [FIG] Fortress Investment Group LLC Reports Q1 GAAP -$0.71 v -$0.74 y/y, R $122.3M v $87.3Me
[08:20] {Threei} - Reports AUM $29.5B v $29.5B q/q
[08:34] {pita} gm everyone
[08:35] {Threei} pita :)
[08:42] {Threei} (US) FDIC'S BAIR: URGES CONGRESS TO CREATE A "SYSTEMIC RISK COUNCIL," TO INCLUDE FDIC, TREASURY, FED AND SEC REPRESENTATIVES
[08:48] {Threei} FAZ decisively aims toward zero
[08:51] {Threei} FIG CEO: BELIEVES THERE WILL BE "SIGNIFICANT" CONSOLIDATION AMONG US BANKS - CONF CALL
[08:53] {chinggis} gm all
[08:53] {Threei} chinggis :)
[08:56] {cosmo} CROX
[09:04] {Threei} DRYS consolidates under 10.30
[09:05] {nemo} What I miss?
[09:06] {Threei} depends on how many centuries you slept...
[09:06] {nemo} just call me Rip
[09:06] {ese} good morning
[09:06] {Threei} but if you know that the cold war is over, you are fairly up to speed
[09:06] {Threei} ese :)
[09:07] {cosmo} the latest cold war?
[09:08] {Threei} don't confuse him cosmo
[09:08] {cosmo} k....back to sleep then
[09:08] {Threei} I mean, any more than I will
[09:10] {cosmo} its your privlage, of course
[09:10] {cosmo} privlege
[09:10] {fernp} Good morning
[09:10] {Threei} fern :)
[09:10] {cosmo} DRYS tests
[09:12] {cosmo} 10.30 wall melts
[09:12] {pita} can this pre mkt bank run continue?
[09:12] {pita} quite the rip
[09:13] {Threei} it can, but the main question is, are we willing to chasde it insteasd of waiting for pullback?
[09:13] {nemo} what isn't ripping
[09:15] {Threei} (US) SENATOR DODD: BELIEVES FDIC SHOULD BE GIVEN RESOLUTION AUTHORITY FOR LARGE FAILING FINANCIAL FIRMS
[09:15] {Threei} - Must be adequate safeguards in place to prevent big financial firms from taking on too much risk.
[09:15] {Threei} - Large financial firms may require new disclosure and reporting requirements.
[09:15] {Threei} - Would like to see power to regulate systemic risk held by more than just one body.
[09:17] {Threei} so, with all the rumors flying around about BAC needing tens on billions, it moves up almost two points pre-market?
[09:17] {nemo} another sprint out of the gate day and meander around the high until the program trading kicks in after three and gooses it some more?
[09:22] {Threei} working assumption is, hard pullback from the opening, a few nervous moves, then recovery and new highs
[09:22] {Threei} if market jumps up from the open, I will miss the move
[09:24] {Threei} FIG knows no limits eh?
[09:25] {Threei} if you feel the pullback after open is our scenario and don't mind very risky opening play,
[09:25] {Threei} FAZ 6.20 break is your play
[09:26] {nemo} vinod and Mags should be all over it
[09:27] {Threei} BAC is climbing even more into open
[09:27] {Threei} definitely "wait for pullback"
[09:27] {Threei} no way I am buying breakout here
[09:28] {Threei} I am rather prepared to cry if it goes to 15 with no pullbacvk
[09:28] {Threei} nemo, pass me a tissue please...
[09:28] {nemo} use your sleeve
[09:28] {Threei} how inconsiderate
[09:29] {nemo} that's what they're for
[09:29] {Threei} keeping DRYS and LVS on bakcburner as well
[09:30] {Threei} btw, on FAZ... if consolidates a little under 6.10, break of it is a play as well
[09:30] {Threei} if stays above 6
[09:31] {Threei} BAC pulling back
[09:31] {Threei} prepare half lot
[09:31] {Threei} we want sharp selloff under 11.50
[09:32] {Threei} FAZ in 5s... lol
[09:34] {Threei} Short Setup: BAC 11.80 half lot

[09:52] {Threei} I don't see opposite
[09:52] {Threei} you sure tyou are looking at FAS and not at FAZ?
[09:53] {pita} yes, i'm sure - but my fas chart froze, not good...

[10:22] {pita} where's the bounce spot FITB?
[10:23] {Threei} 4.80 is shaky one, 4.60 is much more solid

[10:32] {Threei} - pre-open
[10:32] {nemo} ese, you lose weight?
[10:33] {Threei} Long Setup: FAZ 6.15
[10:34] {Threei} if sets up from here, stop under 6.10
[10:35] {Threei} under 6.05 will become rather bounce candidate
[10:36] {Threei} just under 6 most likely
[10:36] {magoo} BAC trying here
[10:36] {magoo} in .70
[10:37] {magoo} stop .59
[10:37] {Threei} Short Setup: MGM half lot .30 breakdown

[10:40] {Threei} for day trade under .60
[10:41] {Threei} yesteday high is .99
[10:41] {Threei} has a good chance to break it for bigger run
[10:41] {Threei} those who go foa daytrade consider partialling

[10:42] {Threei} 1:1 for scalpers
[10:42] {pita} ty HIG
[10:42] {Threei} welcome
[10:43] {jfjf64} ty
[10:43] {nemo} stopped
[10:43] {Threei} hmm?
[10:44] {Threei} something's disconnected here
[10:44] {nemo} scalped 1/2

[10:44] {jfjf64} faz ??
[10:45] {Threei} don't see any play on it here
[10:45] {jfjf64} ty
[10:48] {Threei} no, I still don't get it nemo... :)
[10:49] {Threei} if you were going for a scalp why half,
[10:49] {Threei} if you were going for day trade, you haven't reached 1:1, why partial
[10:49] {Threei} you did some kind of hybrid, lol
[10:49] {nemo} got in @ .80 sold half at .90
[10:49] {Threei} target and stop as with scalp, partialijg as with day trade
[10:50] {nemo} I was playing tighter
[10:50] {Threei} and result is not really harmful, just a wash
[10:50] {Threei} but internal logic of the play is lopsided
[10:51] {Threei} my inner feel of harmony is upset
[10:51] {Threei} see? now you've upset my inner feel of harmony
[10:51] {pita} zen?
06[10:51] * Threei is crying bitterly in the corner
[10:51] {nemo} no, you allow your inner feel to be upset
06[10:53] * Threei kicks HIG in the rear, trying to restore fragile emotional balance by resorting to means of violence
[10:54] {pita} non zen
[10:54] {Threei} nope
[10:54] {Threei} let's trail HIG stop to under .65
[10:55] {nemo} not true violence can be performed in a zen state. Best fighters fight in zen
[10:55] {dino} pmra sm l .00
