[11:41] {level777} from about 2.57
[11:43] {magoo} whenever i get frustrated..cut a trade..openly critisize it..IT WORX lol
[11:44] {Threei} I saw NVASX news... didn't belueve in it at all
[11:44] {magoo} nvax is usually a serial disappointer
[11:44] {level777} nothing to do with believing..has to do with investor hype
[11:44] {Threei} let me elaborate
[11:44] {level777} :)
[11:45] {Threei} didn't believe any hype could move it
[11:45] {level777} i sold @ 2.69
[11:45] {level777} thats my comviction
[11:45] {level777} none of these bio news stocks holds gains unless $$ attached to it
[11:46] {Threei} and even then... {G}
[11:46] {level777} well, i guess they get a P/E then..thats worse news for a bio stock
[11:47] {BillyD} I just want them to hold gains for scalp ordaytrade
[11:47] {BillyD} and...NVAX struggles with even that
[11:47] {BillyD} in my experience...as magoo says: serial disappointer
[11:47] {level777} went up 20%
[11:48] {level777} maybe 15
[11:48] {nemo} Billy D....Magoo's not that bad
[11:48] {BillyD} right, but it seems to pullback past stop, etc
[11:48] {BillyD} in the past, haven't watched today
[11:49] {level777} you'd think after years of watching this scenario repeat over & over, some people would learn
[11:51] {nemo} wfc wedging towards .70 (frickin' pos)
[11:51] {BillyD} I've learned it doesn't normally work for my style
[11:52] {BillyD} glad you made $ on it

[10:53] {magoo} i like it for bounce..way off i guess is my read
[10:53] {level777} SLM life
[10:54] {Threei} if market breaks out, RIMM is likely to bounce
[10:54] {Threei} otherwise, it's a short
[10:54] {jfjf64} watchin it 777

[11:07] {Threei} stop .25 or so
[11:10] {BillyD} Vad, RIMM tgt is scalp or partial
[11:11] {Threei} I'll partial but it's fairly individual choice in this case
[11:11] {Threei} hard to judge
[11:11] {BillyD} ty
[11:11] {Threei} market consolidates near the high
[11:11] {Threei} and can stage another jump easily

[14:03] {Threei} huh?
[14:03] {Threei} what did Rhode island do to amazon?
[14:04] {nemo} sales tax issue
[14:04] {Threei} - Note: Earlier AMZN disclosed it had cut off affiliates in California and North Carolina due to sales tax bills on e-commerce
[14:04] {Threei} got it
[14:05] {Threei} what does amazon do if whole country goes that way?
[14:05] {nemo} They were giving commissions to affiliates on click through purchases
[14:05] {Threei} right
[14:06] {nemo} If the affiliate was in Rhode Island, and the end customer clicked through the affiliates website to Amazon, the affiliate got a piece of the action. Well, states have deemed amazon to be a distributor, and the affiliate to be the retail outlet, and they want their sales tax.
[14:07] {nemo} Amazon doesn't want to code their system to negotiate the fragmented sales tax regimes across the country

Jun 26 2009

Very narrow day with few opportunities. Thankfully we got our winning plays on PALM and TIBX early on.

Session Time: Fri Jun 26 00:00:01 2009

[08:01] {BillyD} good morning
[08:03] {nemo} mornink
[08:11] {Threei} Good morning
[08:11] {BillyD} vad
[08:13] {Threei} General Motors Corp Update: China's NDRC to likely reject Tengzhong's bid to buy Hummer brand - State radio
[08:13] {Threei} - The planner, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), is worried that Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery, which makes special-use vehicles and highway components, does not have the experience and resources to run the Hummer business, the report said.
[08:13] {Threei} - Besides, Hummer, as an expensive, gas-guzzling sports utility vehicle, would not fit in with the government's policy of encouraging energy-efficient vehicles, the radio said.
[08:13] {Threei} there... that's where we are headed
[08:14] {Threei} government telling busnesses what to produce and what not
[08:14] {BillyD} China's way of life
[08:15] {BillyD} Vad, have you bought a new PC in last couple of years
[08:18] {Threei} it was custom built... why?
[08:19] {BillyD} wanted to see if you notice performance difference, thinking about upgrading here
[08:19] {BillyD} mine is 6 yrs old
[08:19] {BillyD} I think I need a better processor
[08:19] {Threei} what's processor speed and RAM?
[08:20] {BillyD} 2.4 mhz w/ 1GB
[08:20] {nemo} graphics capabilities?
[08:20] {Threei} doesn't sound inadequate for trading purposes to me
[08:20] {BillyD} 1 agp w/dual 64MB each & a third PCI card 8MB
[08:21] {BillyD} quotes will freeze when heavy volume comes in at times
[08:21] {nemo} that pci I card stretched a bit?
[08:21] {Threei} mine is more powerful but I do a lot of photoediting
[08:21] {Threei} pci card sounds a bit low, yeah
[08:21] {nemo} BillyD, do you know what the Buss speed is
[08:22] {BillyD} yes on pci card, a PC guy told me that it was more of different drivers causing problems verses the *MB card
[08:22] {BillyD} no nemo, but my RAM is DDR 2700
[08:22] {nemo} Well, that would also be affected by the size of monitor you're running
[08:22] {nemo} That's a fairly slow buss speed
[08:23] {BillyD} have 3 19" monitors
[08:23] {BillyD} yes to slow on buss speed
[08:23] {nemo} Yeah, that might be tough on that 8 mg card
[08:23] {nemo} You windows based
[08:23] {BillyD} yes XP
[08:23] {BillyD} original installation
[08:23] {BillyD} 6 yrs agao

[08:24] {BillyD} what is it?
[08:24] {nemo} Windows 7
[08:25] {BillyD} typically, 1st version has so many bigs
[08:25] {Threei} yeah... early adoper = guinea pig
[08:26] {nemo} I don't disagree, but 6 years is pretty old...he's getting to the end of that thing

[08:41] {Threei} - The FDA has not ordered the recall of any of the Company''s products.

[12:36] {BillyD} to visit
[12:36] {Threei} at this point, I think so

[13:17] {Alw} Is cpd a possible jbe?
[13:18] {Threei} formally, yes... in practice, very questionable
[13:19] {Threei} Market impact of Climate Bill vote (American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009)
[13:19] {Threei} **it appears the 3 hour debate on the climate bill has begun in the House at 1pmET, implying that a final vote might come late this afternoon
[13:19] {dino} l rht .93
[13:19] {Threei} **Specifics of the legislation:
[13:19] {Threei} - Requires a 17% emissions reduction from 2005 levels by 2020.
[13:19] {Threei} - Requires renewable electricity mandate stating each electricity provider who supplies over 4M MWh must produce 20%of its electricity from renewable sources by 2020. (5% of this standard can be met through energy efficiency savings, as well as an additional 3% with certification of the Governor of the state in which the provider operates).
[13:19] {Threei} - Failure to meet said requirements results in fines of $0.02/KWh that will be adjusted upward with inflation.
[13:19] {Threei} - Allocates funding for modernization of grid system ("smart grid"), expansion of electric vehicle production, and sets guidelines for additional energy efficiency in new building projects.
[13:19] {Threei} - To develop Cap-and-trade like system, 85% of initial permits to be given for free with remaining 15% being put up for auction.
[13:19] {Threei} **Potential effects of the legislation:
[13:19] {Threei} - 1) if the bill passes
[13:19] {Threei} Negative impact on the coal burning utilities and coal companies, coal prices likely to decline as their use will be limited; use of natural gas may increase as it reduces the carbon footprint and may drive the sales of natural gas higher. Solar and wind power generating companies will benefit from increased subsidies for energy efficient and alternative energy technologies. Firms that specialize and provide 'smart grid' and infrastructure utilization software are also likely to benefit as utilities look to maximize existing generation sites and prolong the life-time of grand-fathered 'dirty' coal plants. Other sectors that are likely to benefit include specialty names that have experience in carbon capture and sequestration in terrestrial and sub-terrestrial storage. Financials with exposure to EU Cap and Trade and Carbon Emission Contracts are also posed to benefit from increased business volume due to exposure to facilities and understanding of market.
[13:20] {Threei} - 2) if the bill fails
[13:20] {Threei} Positive impact for the coal burning utilities and coal companies, coal prices to remain supported or even rebound on anticipated demand, Natural gas likely to remain steady or decline a little. Solar and wind power technology companies are likely to feel some impact as investors anticipate increased use of green technologies.
[13:20] {level777} clean energy is sweeping the country, esp in cal
[13:20] {Threei} -3) Mixed reactions:
[13:20] {Threei} As with every piece of legislation, the effects of an energy production balance and 'cap and trade' system on markets will not be as clear as one may initially expect. Initial programs and funding will certainly move towards alternative energy technologies and further development of smart grid technologies. The incremental implementation of energy production portfolio balancing at utilities will mean that heavily coal dependent regions (US South East and Mid West) will not see sudden, massive price increases. Due to subsidies and stimulus programs, consumer and commercial price increases are seen rising broadly in tandem throughout US power markets. As for a cap and trade system, initial winners will most notably include the US Federal Government that stands to gain a windfall payment. It is expected that a large percentage of these funds will be reinvested into additional technology and energy subsidy programs (to offset the consumer price increase that will be passed down from utilities).

[10:21] {Threei} talking heads though have this expression I've never understood : summer rally
[10:22] {Threei} as if we have one each summer
[10:22] {dino} overnight ok, but .....
[10:22] {dino} sell in may and go away
[10:23] {ese} intc.30 would be break of 7 day high.....thought that that would help it go a litle
[10:23] {ese} have heard the sell in may line for sure
[10:23] {dino} in general summers are strange. of course we are living in strange times
[10:24] {Threei} that one is plenty silly to me too, ese
[10:24] {ese} agreed....
[10:24] {Threei} just general human desire for simple solutions
[10:25] {Threei} anyone ever made any money using this kind of adages?
[10:25] {Threei} sell each May
[10:25] {Threei} whatever else they recommend
[10:25] {dino} no
[10:25] {ese} no

[10:29] {dino} in the end the govt doesn't want you to think
[10:29] {Threei} think of it: we are that stupid that may even smoke flavored tobacco
[10:29] {Threei} how could governemtn stay away and not jump in to help us make smart decisions
[10:30] {dino} personal responsibility out the door

[10:32] {Threei} there are local politicians here who insist on ban on drive-through, our of emissions concern during engine idling
[10:32] {Threei} I love their reasoning:
[10:32] {Threei} we understand convinience is nice but it's not absolutely necessary
[10:32] {Threei} I suggest these guys to throw out their TVs
[10:32] {Threei} they are not absolutely necessary
[10:33] {Threei} so by their logic must be discarded
[10:35] {BillyD} if RJET can hold 7 area, then B/O worth a shot with some tension
[10:35] {dino} burn 'em all ike
[10:36] {Threei} oil moving up makes it questionable, Billy
[10:36] {Threei} RJET is sensitive to oil
[10:36] {BillyD} makes sense, thanks...plus it needs more tension
[10:36] {ese} I'm also looking at the 16.50 mark for intc....if it gets there this would be the fourth time bumping up against it.......and if it gets through that should propel it up quite significantly

[10:44] {Threei} tempting
[10:44] {dino} rather higher
[10:44] {Threei} double top
[10:44] {Threei} second one made on lower volume
[10:44] {BillyD} was thinking .12 or.13 earlier worth a shot
[10:44] {dino} waiting around 8
[10:45] {Threei} so... technically speaking yes, 7 break is short
[10:45] {Threei} but this thing is not very technical
[10:45] {dino} problem is how much, to 6.80ish?

[13:40] {Threei} hello comrade Stalin
[13:41] {Threei} here is a little story from Russian history, you'll enjoy this one
[13:42] {Threei} legend goes, the factory manifacturing mathces weas infamous for a very low quality of the product
[13:42] {Threei} not having much to choose from people had to buy their matches
[13:42] {Threei} complaints grew louder, and at asome point reached Stalin's ears.
[13:43] {Threei} Director of the factory was summoned
[13:43] {Threei} visit to Stalin by itself was not a small occassion as you can imagine
[13:43] {Threei} and the guy wasn't even topld what it was about
[13:44] {Threei} He was ushered in the office,
[13:44] {Threei} Stalin sat at his desk reading some document and making remarks on the margin,
[13:45] {Threei} never raising his sight at poor guy, never speaking to him, at some point in dead silence he grabbed his smoking pipe
[13:45] {nemo} hehehehe
[13:45] {Threei} picked up matches manufactured by this factory
[13:45] {Threei} and started trying to ignite them.
[13:46] {Threei} 3 or 5 got broken not giving fire
[13:46] {Threei} Stalin sighed, put the pipe down on the desk and continued working
[13:46] {Threei} no single word, no eye contact
[13:46] {Threei} message was sent and heard :)
[13:47] {Threei} heads rolled, quality of the product was fixed in a matter of days
[13:48] {Threei} Preview: FOMC rate decision and statement due out at around 2:15pmET
[13:48] {Threei} **The FOMC is expected to hold rates steady at 0.25% again today, though speculation has begun to circulate that the Fed could modify its statement to clarify that, while it is thinking about exit strategies, it does not expect to raise rates any time soon. Currently Fed Funds Futures show a 36% chance of a rate hike by the end of 2009. The FOMC may also need to address its asset purchase program in today's statement, as it has already gone through over half of the current $300B allocation, and is on track to reach the full target some time in August or September. With the next FOMC meeting not until August, the Fed will likely need to use either today's statement or Bernanke's semiannual policy testimony in July to outline the Fed's future plans for asset purchases.

[14:22] {nemo} move along, nothin' to see here, just some Raven pickin' at corpses
[14:22] {Threei} Fed say things seems to be worsenining more slowly or getting more wose less fast
[14:23] {ese} qqqq big swings
[14:23] {dino} tbt spike
[14:24] {nemo} did that on the last couple of fomc meetings too, I think
[14:24] {ese} well that should mean canadian interest rates will basically stay the same so my mortgage payments will still be low
[14:24] {Threei} pretty much
[14:25] {ese} can invest more in Vad???
[14:25] {nemo} see if tbt breaches today's high...went right to it and is backing off a tad
[14:26] {BillyD} dino, you think yourAM would have dumped a little
[14:26] {ese} qqqq ...that isn't a candle stick chart.....it's stripes
[14:26] {dino} i thiyght so, dead $

[14:28] {BillyD} yes
[14:28] {BillyD} getting closer
[14:28] {dino} i should say; "i need it to break .00"
[14:29] {dino} tear down that wall
[14:30] {BillyD} everything jumps so much it is hard to get solid setup
[14:30] {Threei} there is none
[14:30] {Threei} stays on a sideline
[14:31] {Threei} let those who must trade every second get chewed up and spat out
[14:31] {dino} am bstop to b/e
[14:31] {dino} dji gap filled
[14:33] {nemo} How in tarnation do you trade that ekg...look at fcx, tck, rimm
[14:34] {Raven} careful
[14:36] {nemo} about my earlier comment Raven :) or the one immediately preceing?
[14:36] {nemo} preceding
[14:37] {Raven} the earlier one ...
[14:37] {nemo} Oh...brief aside: Raven...what specific optics do u use birding?
[14:38] {Raven} I have several ... 8x40 binos and 10x40 too
[14:38] {nemo} specifically...I'm an optics snob
[14:38] {Raven} 20-60 power scope
[14:38] {nemo} spotting scope?
[14:38] {Raven} yup
[14:38] {dino} i have the only short that doesn't drop
[14:39] {BillyD} lol....
[14:39] {nemo} Nikon, Bausch & Lomb, Swarovski, Leica, Kahles
[14:39] {nemo} ?
[14:39] {BillyD} it kinda makes you feel singled out
[14:39] {Raven} scope is Bushnell ... bino's Bushnell and Zeiss
[14:40] {nemo} Bushnell...the elites?
[14:40] {nemo} Zeiss...Schott Glasswerk, nice stuff
[14:41] {Raven} yes but my Zeiss ate 25 years old and the lenses on my throw away Bushnell almost a good
[14:41] {nemo} less accent with the Zeiss
[14:41] {Raven} the Bushnell binos cost $105 ... rofl
[14:41] {dino} am covered flat
[14:42] {nemo} I find at about $900 is where it becomes difficult to tell the difference, below that, I see differences in optics...best I've seen in that range are Nikon...although have Bushnell Elite scope
[14:43] {Raven} I will check the cheapie model ... brb
[14:44] {ese} sell off to clear out weak hands???
[14:44] {nemo} SON
[14:44] {ese} or are we actually headed down
[14:45] {Raven} Bushnell Nature View 8x42 ... was $105 delivered last year
[14:45] {nemo} What state are you in Raven?
[14:45] {Raven} Michigan
[14:45] {ese} now were headed up ...... well i can officially tell you that i can't trade this type of market.....have no f^%$%$ idea
[14:46] {nemo} Any Cabelas or Bass Pro shops around you?
[14:47] {Raven} Cabelas two hours east
[14:49] {BillyD} Vad, do you trade the ETF's like EDZ etc and is there a way to eliminate them from scanner
[14:49] {nemo} A bit far...If you haven't already, and you get a chance, they'll have a large selection from cheap to expensive...Spend some time at the counter and, if you can, look at camoflage clothing at a distance. Low contrast differentiation, espcially in low light is where the differences really show up. Usually the optics counter is in the middle of the Cabela's store.
[14:50] {Threei} not sure about elimination billy
[14:50] {BillyD} I don't see a way
[14:50] {Threei} wouldn't want to ban whole exchange
[14:51] {BillyD} no
[14:51] {Threei} although AMEX is not very valuable exchange
[14:51] {BillyD} I just have NYSE and NASDAQ selected
[14:52] {Threei} there was time when almost all ETFs traded at AMEX
[14:52] {Raven} I will try that sometime ... spend a hour or so endearing meself to clerk ... and buy nothing
[14:52] {Threei} ARUN
[14:58] {dino} jpm sm l .40
[14:59] {nemo} happens all the time Oh winged one
[14:59] {Raven} yes
[15:00] {nemo} Besides..maybe you'll be struck by the difference, and go, "What the Hell...can't take it with me anyway."
[15:01] {Raven} lol ... I have made comparisons ... so not likely
[15:01] {nemo} then again...maybe not
[15:01] {vinod} one more trade before close?
[15:03] {Threei} if it comes around
[15:03] {vinod} i am still upset about RIMM
[15:03] {Threei} it's not like I have them but don't share :)

[15:20] {dino} 6/12 i mean
[15:22] {ese} hmmmmm gotta think about different charts.....my daily charts arn't showing some of those
[15:23] {dino} i could be wrong
[15:23] {ese} were talking about the "indu" right?
[15:23] {ese} theres gaps all over my s&p and naz charts
[15:24] {dino} yes
[15:25] {dino} i have 1361,1252,1187,1043 ndx

[15:29] {nemo} what about a \/\_________

[11:30] {Threei} - Believes that market would "self correct" if mortgage rates rose further.
[11:30] {Threei} - suggests the FOMC statement this week could modify the statement on holding rates at an "exceptionally low level for an extended period," to be contigent upon the economic forecast.

[10:44] {dino} he's more like flashdance
[10:44] {Threei} no clear idea why it moves
[10:45] {tomg} swine flu sympathy, i think
[10:45] {nemo} Jennifer Beal looked great in that movie, now she plays a lesbian
[10:45] {Threei} if this is it, then future fully depends on how things develop in that area
[10:46] {tomg} ok, ty

[10:56] {ese} Vad....any suggestions for reading the qqqq index.......i thought that i would do this in reverse......look for strength in big volume tech issues ie intc csco etcetc for strength or weakness readings in qqqq's
[10:56] {nemo} volumes are up there
[10:56] {Threei} well... I prefer top down approach, not the bottom up
[10:57] {_levelseven} svabeat down, could be bounce under 4
[10:57] {ese} so reading an index is what you see is what you get?
[10:58] {Threei} it's a bit more complocated than that
[10:58] {Threei} the problem here is,
[10:58] {Threei} there is no a leader that would established oncwe and for all and showed the way to index
[10:58] {Threei} it can be INTC today
[10:58] {Threei} MSFT tomorrow

[11:01] {ese} intc wasn't it today for sure...it was more csco
[11:01] {ese} thats a good idea dino......gonna study that
[11:03] {dino} they seem to natrural continuation points for most stocks
[11:03] {ese} wanted to try the q's seriously because it can handle the 3k 5k lots much easier that even intc some days
[11:03] {dino} my only thought on you es, is you are crushing it lately, why change what is working?
[11:04] {Threei} FITB 1:1 for that late entry
[11:04] {Threei} 1:2 for the one I recomended

[09:21] {nemo} The 1.1 percent drop in May was the deepest since a 1.8 percent plunge in March.

[14:34] {Threei} MTXX Confirms FDA warning letter (8.50, -10.74, -55.82%)
[14:34] {Threei} lol
[14:35] {Threei} FDA has asserted that the Company is in violation of its regulations by failing to file a new drug application for its Zicam Cold Remedy Nasal Gel and Zicam Cold Remedy Gel Swabs and that those products are misbranded under their regulations for failing to adequately warn of risks. The FDA referred to numerous complaints it has received of anosmia associated with the use of these products.
[14:35] {Threei} - Company believes these products are safe and do not cause anosmia. The Company''s position is supported by the cumulative science and has been confirmed by a multi-disciplinary panel of scientists.
[14:37] {_levelseven} sounds more like a labeling issue
[14:37] {Threei} well... either there is this l,oss of smell or not...

[14:41] {nemo} actually, I used to take it daily
[14:41] {jfjf64} and
[14:41] {nemo} I'd buy it by the pound, put it in a glass jar and fill it with vodka
[14:42] {nemo} let it soak at least a month
[14:42] {nemo} then do a shot or two a day
[14:42] {jfjf64} nice
[14:42] {nemo} Ruined the taste of the vodka though, so I gave it up
[14:42] {nemo} went back to straight vodka
[14:42] {Threei} I don't know why wait a month
[14:42] {Threei} just drink vodka and chew ginseng
[14:43] {nemo} Have to...these are the roots
[14:43] {nemo} chewing it and ingesting it produce two different effects
[14:43] {Threei} bette yet... one root will sustain you a month at least
[14:43] {nemo} depends on the root
[14:43] {nemo} There are cheap roots for how I used them (about $60/lb)
[14:44] {nemo} and there are extremely expensive roots (very old) for acute applications
[14:44] {nemo} they can cost thousands
[14:44] {nemo} Then there's the type of ginseng depending on your constitution
[14:45] {nemo} Do you take "warm" ginseng, or "cool" ginseng

[15:06] {vinod} 10% lower than day's low
[15:08] {Threei} hmm
[15:08] {Threei} interesting indicator :)
[15:08] {vinod} my way--some time it works and sometime it doesn't
[15:09] {Threei} when it was at 15, it would lead you to idea to buy at 13.50, right?
[15:09] {Threei} see my point? :)
[15:09] {wulff} that would be a "not work"
[15:09] {nemo} "no worky"
[15:09] {vinod} it is only in this type of situation

[15:12] {_levelseven} sppi trying to tell us something
[15:12] {nemo} There was a man from Ukrain...who thought he had a very big brain

[15:29] {Threei} nice and easy play
[15:29] {Threei} also, I will venture to suggest:
[15:30] {Threei} anyone who in this climate thinks he can forecats what is going to happen "by end of 2009 or early 2010" is delusional
[15:30] {wulff} yup
[15:30] {nemo} I know what's happening in 2012
[15:30] {_levelseven} stocks picking up
[15:30] {Threei} in reality it's a simple case of:

[15:02] {Threei}  okay
[15:02] {Threei}  what am I looking at?
[15:02] {nemo} I'm trying to understand that move
[15:03] {Threei}  break of resistance after long consolidation, spike...
[15:03] {Threei}  what to understand? :)
[15:03] {nemo} The volume numbers around that spike, barely moves on 14k volume minute before, goes up on 4k volume .20 cents
[15:03] {Threei}  aahhhhh
[15:03] {Threei}  I see what you mean,
[15:03] {nemo} not as dumb as I look
[15:04] {Threei}  volume spike preceeds price spike by bar or two, right?
[15:04] {nemo} 1 bar and the .20 cent jump on 1/4th the volume
[15:04] {Threei}  lord, give me power to refrain from "nah, still dumb"... I don't want to be rude but he just walked into that one
[15:04] {nemo} I'm using LASER
[15:04] {nemo} Not "as dumb"
[15:05] {Threei}  OK, this is good observation,
[15:05] {Threei}  and here is exp[lanation:
06[15:05] * nemo ducking
[15:05] {Threei}  there was huge resistance,
[15:05] {Threei}  a lot of shares offered
[15:05] {Threei}  and all that long consolidation was slow churning of those shares,
[15:05] {Threei}  digesting so top speak.
[15:05] {Threei}  What happened next was
[15:06] {Threei}  strong buying pressure concentrated in a single moment (bar on your 1 min chart) took out all those shares
[15:06] {Threei}  breaking resistance
[15:06] {Threei}  and as sell order got lifted
[15:06] {Threei}  stock moved up.
[15:07] {nemo} dam broke
[15:07] {Threei}  right
[15:07] {Threei}  There was no however as much buyng enthusiasm after the reak,
[15:07] {Threei}  just enough for short-lived spike
[15:07] {Threei}  so volume returned to normal,
[15:07] {Threei}  but absence of sellers allowed for easy price movement
[15:07] {nemo} can see the tails on the preceding candles all were at the same height, once that candle closed above those tails..boom
[15:07] {Threei}  so what you get in such cases is
[15:08] {Threei}  volume spike preceeding price movement
[15:08] {Threei}  which signifies taking out huige sale order
[15:08] {Threei}  then price spike as there is no additional selling pressure
[15:08] {nemo} which is a play you look for
[15:08] {Threei}  and both, price and volume p[retty much return to bormal pattern
[15:09] {Threei}  sure, that's the idea of all breakout plays
[15:09] {Threei}  look at that SVNT break
[15:09] {Threei}  look at that PALM break that we played
[15:10] {Threei}  you will see pretty much the same thing, with insignifcant variations

Jun 11 2009

Somewhat strange day. No real drive in the market but many small stocks moved nicely, mostly in alternative energy names (CPST, EMKR, ALTI etc). Those who trade little ones with big shares made out like bandits. The rest didn't have much to muinch on today.

[08:38] {Threei}  - Does not expect any inflation pressure for "some time to come."
[08:38] {Threei}  - There are no practical alternatives to the USD as a global reserve currency, none to come today or "for many tomorrows."
[08:38] {Threei}  - It is unwarranted to allow firms that have deposti insurance to conduct proprietary trading.

[15:26] {jfjf64} im  watchin   wow
[15:26] {Threei}  .20 break long
[15:26] {jfjf64} yeah
[15:26] {Threei}  discretionary trade
[15:26] {_grasshopper} Hi Nemo we actually met @ CTAB
[15:27] {Threei}  grasshopper... now the most elegant thing to do would be to leave him to guess for a few days :)
[15:28] {nemo} whoa...California
[15:28] {jfjf64} push  this  fas vad
[15:28] {nemo} Geez, and I was relatively well behaved there.  
[15:28] {_grasshopper} Ok I will
[15:28] {_grasshopper} :)
[15:29] {Threei}  ty, I will enjoy his torture :)
[15:29] {nemo} What's so elegant about it
[15:29] {Threei}  there
[15:29] {Threei}  I am glad BAC didn't break, to say honestly
[15:29] {jfjf64} hmm
[15:29] {nemo} Vad, what's your birthday, I need to burn a couple of diagrams :)
[15:30] {Threei}  I don't feel easy about buying this kind of breaks
[15:30] {Threei}  lol
[15:30] {nemo} I know you hate indicators, but the stochastics had been dropping on it since 3:00
[15:30] {jfjf64} s afl.98
[15:30] {Threei}  Update: NY: Fed: Dealers submit $0B in 28 day, $25B TSLF auction; $0B accepted; bid to cover ratio 0
[15:30] {Threei}  - Stop out rate 0.10%
[15:30] {Threei}  - Note: This is 6th consecutive schedule 1 collateral auction that received no bids
[15:30] {Threei}  wow
[15:30] {Threei}  that's what triggered selling
[15:31] {jfjf64} in
[15:32] {nemo} mojo
[15:37] {Threei}  CPST either will hold support 1.20 and finish closer to high, or break it and give chance for 1.10
[15:37] {nemo} interesting, that auction results also sold off PMs
[15:37] {Threei}  no way to tell which is more likely
[15:37] {Threei}  so if you are warm to the idea of taking it overnight,
[15:37] {Threei}  get hal;f near 1.20
[15:37] {Threei}  and wait for breakdown to get another half
[15:38] {Threei}  why not nemo
[15:38] {Threei}  that's what we see lately
[15:38] {vinod} is it a buy at 1.10 CPST ?
[15:38] {nemo} why not what
[15:38] {vinod} o.k i was not here
[15:38] {jfjf64} ty vinod
[15:38] {Threei}  only if you are willing to hold overnight vinod

[15:39] {nemo} Blue Horshoe likes CPST Vinod
[15:39] {vinod} thanks i will
[15:39] {jfjf64} bac  break .10 vad
[15:40] {Threei}  long?
[15:40] {Threei}  nah
[15:40] {jfjf64} ty
[15:40] {Threei}  there is no spring in market's step today
[15:41] {Threei}  see, even nemo doesn't hope for PPT to arrive
[15:41] {nemo} plus a 4-6 cent stop with a triple top at .18 not much reward for risk
[15:42] {nemo} Don't need PPT today, up 75 points
[15:42] {Threei}  ah
[15:42] {Threei}  jeez
[15:42] {Threei}  LLY Court documents show Lilly ghostwrote articles for marketing Zyprexa, placing doctors names on studies it authored
[15:42] {Threei}  any area of life is not corrupted?
[15:43] {_levelseven} daytrading

[15:48] {_levelseven} strong finisher could be overnighter
[15:48] {Threei}  both CPST and EMKR...

[15:49] {_levelseven} both hod

[15:55] {Threei}  if you have price you'd be happy with in mind, try and put it for sale after close
[15:55] {_levelseven} yea, ill be watching

Jun 10 2009

Very nice day with ESLR run as a main dish. Stock perfectly set up for three styles with single trigger: for scalpers, day traders and swing traders. All three are in the money, with day traders getting 1:4 risk/reward and swing traders taking first partial and securing the rest by trailing stop.

Session Time: Wed Jun 10 00:00:00 2009

[08:17] {vinod} GM to all
[08:18] {vinod} will be back at 9.30

[08:36] {ese} it has enough future work/contracts to put that stock somewhere between$30/40 bills
[08:36] {vinod} I have 3K eslr cost is 4.10
[08:37] {ese} hey V
[08:37] {ese} this one is a long term hold for sure
[08:38] {vinod} ESLR is closer to my home
[08:38] {ese} ahhhh  .....what do you know about V
[08:39] {ese} about them
[08:39] {nemo} transaction revenue, holds no consumer debt

[08:39] {vinod} but stock keepgoing down
[08:40] {ese} morning nemo
[08:41] {nemo} I thought you were asking about "V" ese.  ESLR has heavy debt burden
[08:41] {vinod} Nemo:):)
[08:41] {nemo} vino :)
[08:42] {ese} I think most solar companies do have heavy debt.......still an industry in it's infancy
[08:42] {vinod} they depend on goverment handout
[08:42] {nemo} don't disagree, but the ability to get credit becomes the bigger issue
[08:43] {ese} for sure
[08:44] {nemo} so you had the double whammy of credit and oil price collapse.  Oil is back, credit not yet
[08:44] {vinod} raising oil will drive solar stock
[08:44] {nemo} already has, look at oil in comparison to tsl and stp
[08:47] {vinod} for solar i prefer TAN instead of any perticular stock
[08:48] {ese} why is that V
[08:48] {vinod} it is ETN little less risk than individual stock
[08:49] {nemo} Mmmmmhhhh...Vinod talking about less risk...glad I'm sitting down
[08:49] {vinod} after taking pounding in ESLR
[08:50] {nemo} yeah
[08:50] {nemo} but eslr took a pounding when everything else took a pounding
[08:51] {vinod} they lost 45Mil in LEH bankrupcy
[08:51] {nemo} oh yeah...remember those
[08:52] {vinod} other wise stock was around 9-12
[08:52] {nemo} those were shares pledged for debt if I remember correctly
[08:52] {vinod} yes
[08:53] {ese} oh ya....forgot about that nemo.....LEH too them for a ride there
[08:53] {ese} took
[08:53] {vinod} they replaced that money with hifh interest rate and tough term
[08:54] {nemo} yeah, Lehman did even kiss them behind the ear
[08:54] {magoo} morning
[08:54] {vinod} and stock went to around a buck and i was cooked

[09:53] {Threei}  Sunday, June 07, 2009 6:42:17 PM
[09:53] {Threei}  Palm, Inc MSNBC comments on early demand trends for the "Pre" released exclusively for Sprint this weekend
[09:53] {Threei}  - According to MSNBC, the lines were much shorter than those that developed around Apple stores for its first iPhone 2 years ago.
[09:53] {Threei}  - A Sprint spokeswoman said late Saturday that Sprint had sold out of Pre phones at a number of different locations around the US and that the company was doing its best to restock stores.
[09:53] {Threei}  A related report from mocoNews.net noted that hours after the Pre went on sale on Saturday, retailers started reporting shortages of the devices and were adding customers to waiting lists.
[09:53] {Threei}  - mocoNews.net added that one report disclosed that 1 Sprint store in San Francisco sold 60 Pre devices within 2 hours.
[09:54] {dino} good news is bad i guess
[09:55] {Threei}  well, at the same time:
[09:55] {Threei}  ** Note, weekend FT report cites early positive reviews from critics, but also sees entering a "crowded" smartphone market from a "standing start" as a big challenge. Report mentions marketing and "app store" development costs falling on the company; also sees success of the launch being hindered by exclusivity to Sprint, which is perceived as 2-nd tier in quality wireless network. Suggests the initial report on demand for Pre could determine if the company will remain independent or be acquired by a larger smartphone player

[11:45] {Threei}  chart may not be the answer
[11:46] {nemo} I understand.  I was just saying from two different data feeds there was evidence of transactions below .60  I didn't look for prints
[11:46] {Threei}  let it drop under .60 and look for it to stabilize near .50 or lower
[11:46] {Threei}  alternatively, if never loses .60, .67 becomes long trigger
[11:48] {Threei}  if you have out of bounds print at .55 while bids and offers never actually went there, it can be dismissed, even though it will be reflected by chart as a tail
[11:48] {Threei}  that's the reason for my question, not the doubt in tail's existence
[11:48] {nemo} understand
[11:48] {nemo} I think

Jun 05 2009

Intraday hasn't presented many opportunities so the day was mostly done hanks to two overnight holds, XOMA and ARUN, both of which performed admirably

Session Time: Fri Jun 05 00:00:00 2009

[08:04] {Threei}  Good morning
[08:04] {Threei}  liquidated 4K XOMA
[08:04] {nemo} haroo
[08:04] {Threei}  1K left
[08:04] {Threei}  nice start of the day, +1,252
[08:04] {nemo} wow.what price
[08:05] {Threei}  1.40 - 1.44
[08:05] {nemo} guess I should have gone for a trade instead of a scalp
[08:05] {Threei}  it had all the makings of much more than a scalp
[08:06] {Threei}  13:32] {Threei} XOMA
[08:06] {Threei}  [13:32] {Threei} possibly for overnight hold
[08:06] {nemo} I remember, just shook me out on the scalp try
[08:06] {tomg} took xoma with you, vad, ty
[08:06] {Threei}  tom :)
[08:07] {Threei}  y second overnight, ARUN... just one little print but +.37
[08:07] {tomg} took arun, too
[08:07] {Threei}  let's hope this one repeats the XOMA performance
[08:08] {nemo} well, if futures are any indication, sky's the limit today
[08:10] {Threei}  whole bunch of numbers at 8:30
[08:10] {tomg} heb vad?
[08:11] {Threei}  I don't see fresh news n it
[08:13] {Threei}  there is application by HEB at FDA for a drug
[08:13] {Threei}  was delayed couple times
[08:13] {Threei}  should be decided upon any day
[08:14] {Threei}  so I guess it runs on specualtion that FDA nods
[08:14] {tomg} k, ty
[08:17] {Threei}  GMGMQ OPEL plans no US launch for models following Magna deal
[08:17] {Threei}  of course not

[11:30] {ese} haven't hit the stop so we'll see
[11:32] {ese} just looked at your trade laris ....good job
[11:33] {larisa} sold early, but i always do that, no patience :)
[11:34] {dino} going to take a break and get a haircut, back in 30
[11:34] {ese} i sell early too on some runups....vad does portions 1/2 1/2, 1/3 1/3 1/3,   that may be an option
[11:36] {larisa} not for me, do not like partial in or out, just personal pref. 
[11:36] {Threei}  well, it's not like I always do that
[11:36] {Threei}  it's just that we are in market rally mode
[11:36] {Threei}  so I am trying to milk the moves more
[11:37] {larisa} I understand and it makes sense 
[11:39] {ese} ya.....i'm an all in all out type as well
[11:40] {ese} mostly because most of the trading i do now is scalping......05 .12 .08 etc etc...makes no sense to hang around for me
[11:41] {larisa} I only can read the stock for next several min and 10-15 cents possible. So i do that :) Can not  play big shares too, it makes me sick. So I am cheap scalper :)
[11:41] {ese} and of course....to not prove a point.....i'm not really scalping fitb right now
[11:41] {larisa} 1K is all i do, 500 on RIMM or AMZN

Jun 03 2009

Not too many trades as quite a few setups never triggered. Those that did though worked nicely: WFC and, notably, TIVO long for 60 cents. Don't you love those short squeezes after huge gap up - when you get it right and participate in it.

Session Time: Wed Jun 03 00:00:00 2009

[08:06] {pita} gm all
[08:06] {nemo} P.I.T.A. :)
[08:07] {pita} that's me!!!
[08:07] {nemo} neat acronym
[08:07] {nemo} probably more applicable to me
[08:07] {pita} just ask my former wife....
[08:07] {nemo} Where's her grave? :)
[08:08] {pita} :(
[08:08] {nemo} awwwww....poor sense of humor...apologies
[08:08] {pita} the paying is over but the pain remains
[08:09] {nemo} yeah, we'd still be in the Garden of Eden if it weren't for them
[08:09] {pita} well, probably not, but its a great thought
[08:09] {pita} 392108
[08:10] {pita} sorry wrong windog
[08:10] {pita} window
[08:11] {pita} off for breakfast, cu later
[08:11] {magoo} morning
[08:11] {nemo} magister
[08:11] {magoo} TIVO nuts
[08:11] {nemo} yeah, had that written down for today
[08:12] {nemo} should be a nice short soon

[08:14] {magoo} u do the honors
06[08:14] * nemo slaps laserdave around a bit with a large trout
[08:14] {nemo} I grew up trout fishing, kinda' mixed emotions about it
[08:15] {magoo} adp numbers in line
[08:15] {nemo} saw that this morning...curious about oil today...if it spikes, I think market tanks.  
[08:16] {magoo} actually, coorelation the way i see it is oil up..mkts up
[08:17] {nemo} I think you'll see that break soon in U.S. markets.  We're consumption based. As oil goes up money comes out of pockets.  Can't buy stuff.  Might keep Chinese Indian and Brazilian markets going, Aussies too, but less likely here
[08:36] {Threei}  Summary of PIMCO's Bill Gross June Investment Outlook: "Staying rich in the new normal"
[08:36] {Threei}  - U.S is no longer producing as much wealth in proportion to the rest of the world, which will affect stockholders 401k investors and even bond managers
[08:36] {Threei}  - A potential US sovereign downgrade "still far off in the future in PIMCOs opinion" as "both the U.S. and the U.K. entered the Great Recession with attractive ratios compared to such grievous offenders (and AA rated) as Japan."
[08:36] {Threei}  - The pressure of rising long dated treasury yields on mortgage and corporate rates presents a real threat to recovery now underway
[08:36] {Threei}  - Expansion of Fed's balance sheet could have inflationary impact
[08:36] {Threei}  - "Bond investors should therefore confine maturities to the front end of yield curves where continuing low yields and downside price protection is more probable. Holders of dollars should diversify their own baskets before central banks and sovereign wealth funds ultimately do the same. All investors should expect considerably lower rates of return than what they grew accustomed to only a few years ago. "
[08:41] {magoo} got a read on TIVO vad?

[09:40] {Threei}  let's approach it differently
[09:40] {Threei}  9.55 loss is a short trigger,
[09:41] {Threei}  let's watch it for consolidation closer to it that would give us affordable stop
[09:42] {Threei}  if doesn't go over .70 on this bounce, that's resistance

[11:30] {Threei}  (US) Fed Chairman Bernanke: Fed does not plan to sell MBS holdings in the near term, substantial flow of revenue from MBS purchases will offset any losses down the road
[11:31] {nemo} wow, how's he gonna' do that from foreclosed mortgages?
[11:32] {dino} see, they are not using mark to market because fed is not public, so, shazaam mogages are good long term
[11:33] {nemo} what did they buy them at?  Or do we even know?
[11:34] {dino} vlo stopped -.30
[11:34] {dino} it doesn't matter, they are not public
[11:34] {dino} typically 30 year you pay 2.5x sales over the 30 years
[11:35] {nemo} not that, how much did the Fed by them for?
[11:35] {dino} low nemo, so even at 50% default they win over time
[11:35] {nemo} maybe....
[11:36] {dino} they really do not need this public/privated fund stuff if they hold until maturity
[11:36] {dino} even in defaults the houses are worth 50 cents on they buck on average
[11:37] {dino} the whole problem was mark to market
[11:37] {nemo} the problem is, with those sliced and diced MBS, does anybody know what's in them?
[11:37] {dino} if you don't own them who cares
[11:38] {nemo} we do own them
[11:38] {nemo} BOHICA
[11:38] {dino} ahhh, but at less thasn 50 cents on the dollar. some were taken at 25 cents
[11:38] {dino} the losses have been takn by public companies, the govt is a buyer on the cheap.
[11:39] {Threei}  (US) Fed Chairman Bernanke: Fed will be able to raise interest rates even with a large balance sheet
[11:39] {dino} they will sell them out eventually, wjhy do you think hedge funds want them now as opposed to last fall
[11:39] {nemo} The government doing something in my best interest is anethema to me
[11:39] {Threei}  TIVO new high
[11:40] {Threei}  If worst came to worst, the Fed could sell some assets from the balance sheet
[11:41] {dino} they were not, they put the screws to the companies w/m2m. they know the error of this but will never admit it, because thepublic would have their heads

[12:56] {vinod} Tax is not bad. Think about what people lost in market compare to what they paid in tax?
[12:57] {Threei}  not sure I see the connection... is it one or another? :)
[12:58] {dino} ???
[12:58] {Threei}  I mean, if paying higher tax would prevent market losses, then comparison would make sense
[12:59] {vinod} I believe everyone has to pay their share of tax
[12:59] {dino} higher taxes will hurt markets
[12:59] {Threei}  sure
[12:59] {ese} all right....same as pita....outta here to the days job...catch you all on the flip side
[12:59] {Threei}  but who said that share must be increased?
[12:59] {Threei}  take care ese
[12:59] {dino} cya es
[12:59] {ese} see ya vad
[13:00] {ese} dino...later
[13:01] {vinod} more tax we pay less need to borrow from china
[13:02] {Threei}  and less money we have to spend... and more money for goverment to misspend
[13:02] {Threei}  if you believe in goverment's ability to spend wisely... we just will have to agree to disagree :)
[13:03] {Threei}  and if you don't, why would you want to enable it to waste more than it already did?
[13:04] {vinod} no one expect or believe that gov.will spend wisely. we should accept that
[13:04] {Threei}  the wouldn't it be wiser to leave it with at little as possible to spend foolishly? :)
[13:05] {dino}  regan proved lower tax rates = higher receipts, problem was spending
[13:05] {Threei}  right
[13:05] {Threei}  and that is hard thing to reign
[13:06] {Threei}  tax increase gives governemtn even more room for wasteful spending AND cuts down receipts

[10:51] {Threei}  under .50, sure
[10:51] {Threei}  under .53? shrug

[09:18] {Threei}  2. would reflect index without costant rebalancing by weeeding out some companies and adding other
[09:18] {nemo} yeah, the $ is inversely correlated to the DOW.  Basically, you've made nothing for 80 years since the Fed was instituted
