[10:17] {Threei} FED CONFIRMS COUPON PASS
[10:17] {Threei} what's that?
[10:17] {Threei} Long Setup: MGM .65
[10:18] {Threei} scalpers aim to axit above .70
[10:18] {Threei} with stop under .60

[10:20] {dptl} .67
[10:20] {Threei} scared the hell out of me dp
[10:20] {nemo} in .66
[10:20] {Threei} but even .67 a bit too high...
[10:20] {Threei} trigger was .65, adn was easily available
[10:21] {nemo} out ty
[10:21] {Threei} scalpers got their target
[10:22] {ese} bstop drys .17
[10:23] {dptl} out
[10:23] {ese} sorry that bstop is .19
[10:23] {dptl} .72
[10:23] {Threei} guys, let's elaborate definitions
[10:23] {Threei} Long Setup: ABCD 20 break
[10:24] {Threei} means buy when broken
[10:24] {Threei} unless you want aggresive entry of course
[10:24] {jfjf64} cant pull up
[10:24] {Threei} prepare limit entry at 20.03 if 3 cents chansing is your limit of tolreance
[10:25] {Threei} and click buy when 20 offers disappear
[10:25] {Threei} now,
[10:25] {Threei} Long Setup: ABCD 20
[10:25] {Threei} means, 20 itself is a trigger,
[10:25] {Threei} prepare 20.01 entry,
[10:25] {Threei} don't be a first buyer unless stock is thin
[10:25] {Threei} and try to grab 20 when buying starts and offers melt down
[10:26] {Threei} worst casde scenario, get 20.01
[10:26] {magoo} out .77 MGM ty
[10:26] {Threei} call for .65 entry was caused by the fact that MGM topped at .64 twice
[10:26] {Threei} day traders got 1:1 on MGM
[10:26] {dino} pru wall at .50
[10:27] {Threei} so, .65 became a trigger,
[10:27] {Threei} but since there was a scalping version for a very small gain in this play
[10:27] {Threei} I didn't want to say .64 break, which leaves too much room
[10:27] {Threei} and opted for strict .65
[10:28] {Threei} hope it's clear
[10:30] {dino} sm l .50
[10:30] {ese} bstop intc .48
[10:30] {nemo} of what dino pru?
[10:30] {dino} y

06[12:10] * nemo hopes he didn't get laserdave with the tusk
[12:11] {magoo} out hig here .26..not bad for nut job:)
[12:11] {Threei} there is certain level where it's reasonable
[12:11] {Threei} and then there is magoo :)
[12:11] {Threei} with HIG entry at .05 it is reasonable ro hold for .20 break,
[12:11] {Threei} but to buy there as a new entry - buying too much risk
[12:12] {Threei} anyway, glad to see we played HIG on both sides
[12:12] {Threei} like violing.. short, cover, switch to long
[12:12] {Threei} violing?
[12:12] {Threei} sigh
[12:13] {jfjf64} double good
[12:13] {nemo} Although, since I first asked about 20 break it built a range for about 7 minutes before breaking. WHile buildig the range volume decreased from initial pop over .20 and then increased when it broke .20 the 3rd time.
[12:13] {Threei} or as old little Johnny joke goes, twice is twice
[12:13] {nemo} at the same time?
[12:14] {Threei} it made a play more reasonable
[12:14] {nemo} Isn't that little misha
[12:14] {Threei} and if HIG wasn't up over two bucks already from the low, I would go for it
[12:15] {nemo} would have been a scalp. Is HIG possibly coming into support here?

[14:48] {Threei} stop under .95
[14:48] {Threei} this type of plays ca take a few tries
[14:48] {Threei} that's why half lot, so you could do it without to much damange
[14:49] {dino} make it .02 mkt drop
[14:49] {Threei} and no chasing

[14:58] {Threei} why go second time for teh same trigger,
[14:58] {Threei} to have less potential and bigger stop?
[14:58] {Threei} for this trigger to become valid HIG needs to stop making lower lows,
[14:59] {Threei} consolidate a bit
[14:59] {Threei} then break
[14:59] {Threei} otherwise chances of false break arwe too high
