That was very interesting day. How often do you start with 4 stops in a row, and end up nicely profitable? This was exactly what happened. In the first 30-40 min we got stopped and rinsed 4 times; then made 7 winning trades most of which were 1:3ers, and ended up nicely up. Things sometimes go in clusters - stay calm and make good trades.

[11:20] {goinshort} out FB thanks !!
01[11:20] {Threei} yw sir
01[11:21] {Threei} look at intraday...
01[11:21] {Threei} .90 was clear long trigger,
01[11:21] {Threei} ascending triangle
01[11:21] {Threei} but before that, FB tested .97 twice
01[11:22] {Threei} retreated, then formed this triangle we took now.
01[11:22] {Threei} What ahppens next is:
01[11:22] {Threei} triangle break gives it enough power to take that .97, which is nolt really actual resistance,
01[11:22] {Threei} that would be even nimber right above, 71.
[11:23] {goinshort} I get it ! thanks
01[11:23] {Threei} Taking round number, which is new high for the day, with momentum created by this triangle break - all the comnponenets in place for a verticla spike
01[11:23] {Threei} which is exzctly what happened
01[11:24] {Threei} sheesh... my typing IS atrocious

[11:52] {fish_49} won't that create a clash?
01[11:52] {Threei} what if cost is the clash?
01[11:52] {Threei} exactly
[11:53] {fish_49} I pity the police in this situation....
[11:54] {fish_49} They have to follow orders and I'm certain there will be some that agree with the oposition

01[12:16] {Threei} 1:1 if went with fish idea
[12:16] {dino} esi drop
[12:17] {fish_49} curious why .50 on wmt not .52? round number? looks like range is .52 and .62?
01[12:18] {Threei} when it's that close to round number, I prefer to use it as more batural support level
01[12:18] {Threei} natural too
[12:18] {fish_49} ok
[12:19] {nemo} iwm might have to push through to get the 118 stops
01[12:19] {Threei} most likely such numbers as .52 hold simply because there is huge support right under it, and buyers step up in front of that
01[12:20] {Threei} but to trigger the trade break of that support is needed
01[12:20] {Threei} (Yodaspeak)
[12:20] {fish_49} thanks for the explanation Vad. It makes sense and gives lil more confirmation

01[13:03] {Threei} WMT baby
[13:04] {fish_49} come on wmt 2 more pennies
01[13:04] {Threei} believe it or not, with this trade actually positive for the day
01[13:05] {Threei} finally out of that morning hole
01[13:05] {Threei} 4 stops in a row, sheesh
[13:05] {fish_49} if I were to get out here I would be positive for day
[13:05] {dino} gj, way to stick to it
[13:05] {fish_49} my limit order in at .33 and didnt get taken out
01[13:05] {Threei} take half of what you have still fish
[13:06] {fish_49} k
01[13:06] {Threei} secure some profit
01[13:06] {Threei} get as close as you can to breakeven or slighly positive,
01[13:06] {Threei} so even if last portion doresn't work, it's not painful anymore
[13:07] {goinshort} I know what ya mean - I'm $64 from green
01[13:07] {Threei} there is math of odds theory that dictates the best way to manage the trade,
01[13:07] {Threei} and there is a human side of all this,
01[13:07] {Threei} we are not robots,
01[13:07] {Threei} maintaining emotional balance is important
01[13:08] {Threei} sometimes suboptimal way from pure math point of vieew is much better,
01[13:08] {Threei} as it allows us to finction with less stress
01[13:08] {Threei} function too
[13:08] {fish_49} good point I have the remaining shares at a limit of .33 lets see if i can get hit
[13:09] {nemo} just stick ur chin out
[13:09] {dino} esi drops again
[13:09] {dino} anfi stopped b/e
01[13:09] {Threei} there
[13:09] {fish_49} out
[13:09] {fish_49} and positive territory
01[13:09] {Threei} out you are as Yoda say would
[13:09] {fish_49} great day after all
[13:10] {dino} couple brutal drops going on, asps, esi
[13:10] {dino} edu
01[13:10] {Threei} who would have thought in the morning, eh fish?
01[13:10] {Threei} and you missed 1:3er on FB
[13:10] {fish_49} yea but It was a good test of an issue I have resolved so It was worth it to me
01[13:11] {Threei} yup
[13:11] {fish_49} Even with the morning trades I felt no pain and accepted it
[13:11] {fish_49} that in itself is victory to me
01[13:11] {Threei} perfect
01[13:11] {Threei} this is the state you need to cultivate
01[13:12] {Threei} it's an odds game,
01[13:12] {Threei} and sometimes odds go in clusters
01[13:12] {Threei} a few stops here and there, we all accept that
[13:12] {fish_49} yes and I had bad feelings towards DAS folks but that was resloved. Honestly within 2 rings they answered the call and had me out of the trade within seconds
01[13:12] {Threei} a few stops grouped together, it causes pain and doubts
[13:13] {fish_49} I have a new outlook towards those folks
01[13:13] {Threei} I never underatood that bad feeling, honestly
01[13:14] {Threei} they cater to day traders
01[13:14] {Threei} as such, they are top league
01[13:14] {Threei} server co-location, latency is negligible
01[13:14] {Threei} software is top notch
[13:14] {fish_49} I believe that now
[13:14] {dino} kof and fmx getting crushed last few days
01[13:15] {Threei} downtime is next to non-existent
01[13:15] {Threei} and you know what a real test of how robust software is?
01[13:16] {Threei} it's how it handles extremely high colume rapid trading days during market crash
01[13:16] {Threei} when usual systems slow down to a crawl
01[13:16] {Threei} and your orders travel in cyberspace like tortoises in mollasses
[13:16] {fish_49} my bad opinion came from their lack of support or understanding of their own software
[13:17] {fish_49} I figured out the details on my own
[13:17] {fish_49} but now that I have confidence in their response at the trade desk I am fine
01[13:17] {Threei} you always run into someone in front line of support who knows a b and c, and haven't even heard of d...
[13:17] {nemo} yeah, tech support desks tend to have multiple levels
[13:18] {nemo} you get the grunts at first
[13:18] {dino} damn, missed asps and esi bottoms
01[13:18] {Threei} I mean this is still good ole USA, the country in which salesman in central NY store when asked if they ship to Canada told me "sorry, we don't ship ioverseas"
01[13:18] {Threei} 1:2 WMT
[13:18] {fish_49} yea level 1 was CC9 his response to my questions were "Well why do you need that"
01[13:20] {Threei} gs, you are breakeven now?
[13:20] {fish_49} hahahah Overseas? well the Great Lakes are large Vad might as well be a sea lol
[13:20] {goinshort} no not yet
[13:20] {nemo} they have tides
01[13:21] {Threei} yeah... when I suggested him to look up Canada on the map and find the sea between us, he wasn't amused
[13:21] {fish_49} I grew up on Lake Erie at a time when it caught fire in some places lol
[13:21] {dino} gas?
[13:21] {fish_49} He didn't hang up on you?
01[13:22] {Threei} no... we spoke of $1,700 camera, mind you
[13:22] {fish_49} no not gas pollution debris, just general junk
[13:22] {fish_49} the lake really wasn't cleaned up until Nuc power came into play
[13:23] {dino} asps, ocn lods
[13:23] {fish_49} Lake Erie is a clean lake now compared to late 70's and early 80's
[13:23] {fish_49} Welcome back Natan
[13:23] {nathan} hi guys

[13:24] {nathan} :-)
[13:24] {dino} lol
[13:25] {dino} but before you could spell it backwards and frontwards the same
01[13:25] {Threei} nemo is so upset about not having a buddy for his satanic cult, he has suffocated the serpent with his bare hands
[13:25] {nemo} maybe he was drunk
[13:25] {nemo} Xcuse me
[13:26] {fish_49} Nathan I'm happy your not Satan. we can only have one satan in the room and we all know who that is right Nemo?
[13:26] {nemo} those cults are such amateurs
[13:26] {nathan} lol
01[13:26] {Threei} in nemo's vult there was supposed to be a buddy system
01[13:26] {Threei} cult
[13:26] {nemo} Les hasn't been here for a month Fish
[13:27] {fish_49} lol good point Toad
01[13:27] {Threei} they would exchange flowers every morning
01[13:27] {Threei} granted, those would be black flowers
[13:27] {nemo} besides, Satan is a bastardization of al Shaitan "one who questions"
[13:28] {RonS} you shaitan me?
[13:28] {nemo} mmmhhh...not sure how to reply to that Ron
01[13:30] {Threei} lol
[13:30] {dino} lol
[13:30] {nemo} guess Ron made a funny...
01[13:31] {Threei} nemo's right on this one, however painful it is to admit... "shaitan" is a word in middle asia languages, from republics of xUSSR
01[13:31] {Threei} haven't heard it in ages, just remembered when he typed that
[13:32] {nemo} Yeah, that side of the spirtual fauna is my bailiwick
[13:32] {fish_49} [13:31] {Threei} nemo's right on this one, even Vad admits Nemo is wrong most of the time
[13:33] {nemo} o.k. if the market gonna' drop the shorts should be forming now
[13:33] {fish_49} still range bound
[13:33] {nemo} That's a helluva' assumption for being such a noob here fishface
[13:34] {fish_49} assumption?
[13:34] {nemo} assertion
[13:34] {nemo} you're making an assumption which led to a written assertion
[13:34] {fish_49} you know what they say about assumptions and assertions
[13:35] {dino} asps vsm l .60
[13:35] {nemo} did you retire or get fired by the Feds?
[13:35] {fish_49} lol
[13:36] {RonS} N.Y. Regulator Probing Ocwen's Relationships

[13:38] {RonS} Ocwen executive chairman William Erbey also chairs four other affiliated residential real-estate companies: Altisource Portfolio Solutions SA, Altisource Residential Corp, Altisource Asset Management Corp and Home Loan Servicing Solutions Ltd.

[13:39] {nemo} not to be confused with trout
[13:39] {nemo} doesn't matter
[13:40] {nemo} you're looking for rationality in an irrational process
[13:40] {nemo} the market is a woman
[13:40] {nemo} with sharp teeth claws and venom
01[13:40] {Threei} weird... mine is all smooth and curvy

[14:03] {nathan} di you jump into FB?
01[14:04] {Threei} no
[14:04] {fish_49} could bounce here
01[14:04] {Threei} just no clear setup
01[14:11] {Threei} grrrr
01[14:11] {Threei} one that got away
01[14:11] {Threei} right idea, haven't found the setup
01[14:13] {Threei} Federal court orders Google to take down YouTube anti-Muslim video 'Innocence of Muslims'
01[14:13] {Threei} really?
01[14:13] {Threei} we are takign down offensive things now?
[14:13] {fish_49} huh?
[14:13] {fish_49} OMG
[14:14] {fish_49} are they going to say it will be the cause of another benghazi?
01[14:14] {Threei} I demand taking down Inconvenient Truth, it offends me deeply as it does away with reality and insults any sane person intelligence
[14:15] {RonS} dems mountin full frontal war on free speech...someone needs to find a new Lenny Bruce...
01[14:15] {Threei} that's OK, we can all convert to turkish lira and immigrate to Ukraine
01[14:15] {Threei} oh wait...
[14:16] {nathan} what's going on in FB?
01[14:16] {Threei} no news
[14:17] {nathan} are the going to buy Microsoft paint?
01[14:17] {Threei} lol
01[14:17] {Threei} (US) Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Camp (R-MI) releases details of his tax simplification plan- As previously reported the plan cuts US income tax brackets to only two (10% and 25%), phased in over five years. This would be offset by eliminating numerous and varied tax breaks that have been added into the tax code over decades. - The Camp tax plan is not expected to get much traction in Washington, but could serve as a starting point for future efforts on tax reform and simplification.
[14:18] {nemo} senate already told him to pound sand
01[14:18] {Threei} almost bounce time, FB
[14:18] {nathan} will break the 69? :-)
01[14:19] {Threei} I think so
[14:19] {dino} pega sm l .00
[14:19] {nemo} frickin' twtr, dropped .80 like a double diamond slope
01[14:19] {Threei} Long Setup: FB 69 break
01[14:19] {Threei} If holds .90
01[14:19] {Threei} risky one
01[14:19] {Threei} but all bottom fishing is
01[14:19] {Threei} 1:1
01[14:20] {Threei} 1:2
01[14:21] {Threei} man... positive for the day
[14:21] {fish_49} I missed it but have a question
01[14:21] {Threei} two huge clusters, losing one in the morning, winning one after that
01[14:21] {Threei} rare occurence
01[14:21] {Threei} normally they are mixed more evenly
01[14:22] {Threei} why missed? it wasn't particularly fast on a break
01[14:22] {Threei} 1:3
01[14:22] {Threei} and returned to .01
[14:25] {fish_49} Vad so the pop up was on decreased volume would that be an indication of a continuation down ?
01[14:26] {Threei} why decreased? 14:20 candle is quite nice volume
[14:26] {fish_49} yes
[14:26] {fish_49} then after that on a 3 min i see very lil vol
01[14:26] {Threei} even karger than 14:15, largest red one up tio that point
[14:27] {fish_49} Obviously I'm wrong it continues up
01[14:27] {Threei} trade in progress already by that time, just manage it
01[14:27] {Threei} standard operating procedure kicks in
[14:28] {fish_49} yea I was not asking about that just tring to learn about volume
01[14:28] {Threei} volume is still larger on green candles than on red ones after bottoming
01[14:28] {Threei} compare them between themselves to see how forces are distributed now
01[14:30] {Threei} you can also view it this way:
01[14:30] {Threei} decline after 14:15 was on decreasing volume,
01[14:30] {Threei} which indicated sellers running out of gas
01[14:30] {Threei} let see if this is double bottom
01[14:31] {Threei} crap, late
01[14:31] {Threei} too fast
01[14:31] {Threei} Long Setup: WMT .40 break
01[14:32] {Threei} If holds .34
01[14:33] {Threei} ugh... such nice db setup
01[14:34] {Threei} Poll: 42% of Dems Prefer Biden to Run for Prez

[15:17] {fish_49} mistake?

01[15:17] {Threei} you think
01[15:17] {Threei} I don't
01[15:17] {Threei} or at least, I think twice before thinking
[15:17] {fish_49} being up $180 dollars on a day like today I don't think was a mistake
[15:18] {fish_49} ok I will try not to think
01[15:18] {Threei} and if you got thosde 2 1:3ers on FB...
01[15:18] {Threei} you will find it very liberating
[15:19] {fish_49} ohhh if I caught that i would be on top of the world
01[15:19] {Threei} I have to think only when I have to explain the decision-making
[15:19] {fish_49} I'm actually proud of myself taking TWTR shjort at .80 and getting .30 cents on the short and calling the bounce
01[15:19] {Threei} good job
[15:20] {fish_49} your paid to think I get paid to follow your advice lol
01[15:20] {Threei} I don't believe I will be very far from truth when say" process of learning to trade in larger part isd a process of un-learning to think
[15:20] {fish_49} only 10 shares on TWTR just trying it as a confidence booster
[15:21] {fish_49} ok let me show you the volume issue I was asking about with FB b4
[15:21] {_philipswich} thanks a lot Vad, got to go now. Bye all
01[15:21] {Threei} yw phulup, see you tomorrow
01[15:21] {Threei} philip

[15:24] {fish_49} http://s1332.photobucket.com/user/bkhmd/media/FBvol_zpsc13163a6.jpg.html
[15:24] {fish_49} this is what I was talking about earlier
01[15:25] {Threei} well, on a big scheme of things, look at FB
01[15:25] {Threei} it was a lousy bounce
[15:25] {fish_49} On a 3 min chart I watched price rise .40 cents but volume was decreased significantly and my instinct was to get short which would have paid off on a scalp
01[15:26] {Threei} and it retreated under 69 twice since then and it reatreats now again
[15:26] {fish_49} yep
01[15:26] {Threei} another matter is, for our purposes the scale of themove was such that even that lousy bounce provided us with quite enough room to profit
01[15:27] {Threei} (UR) US Sec State Kerry: US is considering plan to offer Ukraine $1.0B in loan guarantees plus further direct financial aid- Russian military moves against Ukraine would be a very grave, costly mistake
01[15:28] {Threei} Kerry... Putin plays chess, you barely learned how to put checkers on the board
01[15:28] {Threei} let alone actuaklly play them
[15:28] {fish_49} I don't trust Kerry
[15:28] {fish_49} Does he come from Mass?
[15:28] {RonS} ketchup
[15:29] {fish_49} who else do we know that is in Mass?
[15:29] {nemo} yeah, and basically works in the middle of Maryland
[15:29] {fish_49} and who else do we know that came from Maryland but lives in Mass now?
[15:29] {fish_49} lol
[15:29] {fish_49} Checkmate I win Toad
[15:30] {nemo} he doesn't live in MA, just a mailing address
[15:36] {nemo} Are you insinuating I came from Maryland?

01[09:12] {Threei} (UR) Reportedly pro-Russia and pro-Ukraine protestors are clashing in the Crimea region city of Simferopol; reportedly explosions heard near Crimea parliament in Simferopol - press- Pro-Ukraine protestors are said to be trying to break into the regional parliament. - Reports assert that at least one protestor is dead after clashes. - Separately, Volodymyr Konstantinov, the chairman of the Supreme Council (Verkhovna Rada) of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, has dismissed allegations circulated by some media outlets that Crimean lawmakers plan to make some radical decisions at an extraordinary plenary session, possibly including Crimea's secession from Ukraine

01[11:20] {Threei} yw sir
01[11:21] {Threei} look at intraday...
01[11:21] {Threei} .90 was clear long trigger,
01[11:21] {Threei} ascending triangle
01[11:21] {Threei} but before that, FB tested .97 twice
01[11:22] {Threei} retreated, then formed this triangle we took now.
01[11:22] {Threei} What ahppens next is:
01[11:22] {Threei} triangle break gives it enough power to take that .97, which is nolt really actual resistance,
01[11:22] {Threei} that would be even nimber right above, 71.
[11:23] {goinshort} I get it ! thanks
01[11:23] {Threei} Taking round number, which is new high for the day, with momentum created by this triangle break - all the comnponenets in place for a verticla spike
01[11:23] {Threei} which is exzctly what happened

01[11:52] {Threei} what if cost is the clash?
01[11:52] {Threei} exactly
[11:53] {fish_49} I pity the police in this situation....

[12:16] {dino} esi drop
[12:17] {fish_49} curious why .50 on wmt not .52? round number? looks like range is .52 and .62?
01[12:18] {Threei} when it's that close to round number, I prefer to use it as more batural support level
01[12:18] {Threei} natural too
[12:18] {fish_49} ok
[12:19] {nemo} iwm might have to push through to get the 118 stops
01[12:19] {Threei} most likely such numbers as .52 hold simply because there is huge support right under it, and buyers step up in front of that
01[12:20] {Threei} but to trigger the trade break of that support is needed
01[12:20] {Threei} (Yodaspeak)

06[12:54] * Threei slaps nemo around a bit with a 10 lb frozen salmon
[12:54] {nemo} vicious
06[12:54] * Threei takes a bow
[12:55] {nemo} pass the wasabi
[12:55] {nemo} tza might be worth a shot here
[12:55] {fish_49} Nemo got slapped by my frozen cousin cool she has a hard right hand
[12:55] {fish_49} fin
[12:55] {nemo} since we can't short iwm
[12:55] {nemo} having said that, we're right at channel support
[12:55] {fish_49} why can't you short it?
[12:55] {dino} relgous reasons
[12:55] {nemo} because it doesn't say "S"
01[12:55] {Threei} Zaratustra wonn't allow him
01[12:56] {Threei} lol dino
[12:56] {dino} my spelling sucks today
01[12:56] {Threei} my fault dino
01[12:56] {Threei} sorry
01[12:56] {Threei} my typing rubs off
[12:56] {nemo} set the price .20 higher then bbo and try to short it fishface
[12:56] {nemo} youl get Send_Rej
[12:56] {nemo} dufus
01[12:57] {Threei} thEn?
01[12:57] {Threei} thEn???
[12:57] {fish_49} oh ok I would never try to short it so I had no Idea
01[12:57] {Threei} sigh
01[12:57] {Threei} grammar police
01[12:57] {Threei} urgent
[12:57] {fish_49} dufus was spelled correctly Vad
06[12:57] * nemo would like to taser fish's ass with a 440 volt line
01[12:57] {Threei} [12:56] {nemo} set the price .20 higher then bbo
[12:58] {fish_49} not a 34K line?
[12:58] {nemo} oh bbbo
[12:58] {nemo} no...I want to make sure you get enough amps
01[12:58] {Threei} this is just below the "their-they're"
[12:58] {nemo} no youl
[12:58] {nemo} instead of you'll
[12:58] {nemo} tza working
[12:58] {fish_49} is it then or should that be than?
[12:59] {nemo} entweder oder
[13:00] {nemo} whoa, pretty low spy volume
[13:02] {dino} asps getting serious
[13:02] {nemo} .80ish first bounce point for iwm take some tza there
[13:02] {nemo} then see if it holds under entry
01[13:03] {Threei} wow FB
[13:03] {fish_49} yea
[13:03] {fish_49} watchoing that Vad
[13:03] {nemo} if it comes back down through .80 vwap likely target...market has been selling off in the afternoons
01[13:03] {Threei} WMT baby
[13:04] {fish_49} come on wmt 2 more pennies
01[13:04] {Threei} believe it or not, with this trade actually positive for the day
01[13:05] {Threei} finally out of that morning hole
01[13:05] {Threei} 4 stops in a row, sheesh
[13:05] {fish_49} if I were to get out here I would be positive for day
[13:05] {dino} gj, way to stick to it
[13:05] {fish_49} my limit order in at .33 and didnt get taken out
01[13:05] {Threei} take half of what you have still fish
[13:06] {fish_49} k
01[13:06] {Threei} secure some profit
01[13:06] {Threei} get as close as you can to breakeven or slighly positive,
01[13:06] {Threei} so even if last portion doresn't work, it's not painful anymore
[13:07] {goinshort} I know what ya mean - I'm $64 from green
01[13:07] {Threei} there is math of odds theory that dictates the best way to manage the trade,
01[13:07] {Threei} and there is a human side of all this,
01[13:07] {Threei} we are not robots,
01[13:07] {Threei} maintaining emotional balance is important
01[13:08] {Threei} sometimes suboptimal way from pure math point of vieew is much better,
01[13:08] {Threei} as it allows us to finction with less stress
01[13:08] {Threei} function too
[13:08] {fish_49} good point I have the remaining shares at a limit of .33 lets see if i can get hit
[13:09] {nemo} just stick ur chin out
[13:09] {dino} esi drops again
[13:09] {dino} anfi stopped b/e
01[13:09] {Threei} there
[13:09] {fish_49} out
[13:09] {fish_49} and positive territory
01[13:09] {Threei} out you are as Yoda say would
[13:09] {fish_49} great day after all
[13:10] {dino} couple brutal drops going on, asps, esi
[13:10] {dino} edu
01[13:10] {Threei} who would have thought in the morning, eh fish?
01[13:10] {Threei} and you missed 1:3er on FB
[13:10] {fish_49} yea but It was a good test of an issue I have resolved so It was worth it to me
01[13:11] {Threei} yup
[13:11] {fish_49} Even with the morning trades I felt no pain and accepted it
[13:11] {fish_49} that in itself is victory to me
01[13:11] {Threei} perfect
01[13:11] {Threei} this is the state you need to cultivate
01[13:12] {Threei} it's an odds game,
01[13:12] {Threei} and sometimes odds go in clusters
01[13:12] {Threei} a few stops here and there, we all accept that
[13:12] {fish_49} yes and I had bad feelings towards DAS folks but that was resloved. Honestly within 2 rings they answered the call and had me out of the trade within seconds
01[13:12] {Threei} a few stops grouped together, it causes pain and doubts
[13:13] {fish_49} I have a new outlook towards those folks
01[13:13] {Threei} I never underatood that bad feeling, honestly
01[13:14] {Threei} they cater to day traders
01[13:14] {Threei} as such, they are top league
01[13:14] {Threei} server co-location, latency is negligible
01[13:14] {Threei} software is top notch
[13:14] {fish_49} I believe that now
[13:14] {dino} kof and fmx getting crushed last few days
01[13:15] {Threei} downtime is next to non-existent
01[13:15] {Threei} and you know what a real test of how robust software is?
01[13:16] {Threei} it's how it handles extremely high colume rapid trading days during market crash
01[13:16] {Threei} when usual systems slow down to a crawl
01[13:16] {Threei} and your orders travel in cyberspace like tortoises in mollasses
[13:16] {fish_49} my bad opinion came from their lack of support or understanding of their own software
[13:17] {fish_49} I figured out the details on my own
[13:17] {fish_49} but now that I have confidence in their response at the trade desk I am fine
01[13:17] {Threei} you always run into someone in front line of support who knows a b and c, and haven't even heard of d...
[13:17] {nemo} yeah, tech support desks tend to have multiple levels
[13:18] {nemo} you get the grunts at first
[13:18] {dino} damn, missed asps and esi bottoms
01[13:18] {Threei} I mean this is still good ole USA, the country in which salesman in central NY store when asked if they ship to Canada told me "sorry, we don't ship ioverseas"
01[13:18] {Threei} 1:2 WMT
[13:18] {fish_49} yea level 1 was CC9 his response to my questions were "Well why do you need that"
01[13:20] {Threei} gs, you are breakeven now?
[13:20] {fish_49} hahahah Overseas? well the Great Lakes are large Vad might as well be a sea lol
[13:20] {goinshort} no not yet
[13:20] {nemo} they have tides
01[13:21] {Threei} yeah... when I suggested him to look up Canada on the map and find the sea between us, he wasn't amused
[13:21] {fish_49} I grew up on Lake Erie at a time when it caught fire in some places lol
[13:21] {dino} gas?
[13:21] {fish_49} He didn't hang up on you?
01[13:22] {Threei} no... we spoke of $1,700 camera, mind you
[13:22] {fish_49} no not gas pollution debris, just general junk
[13:22] {fish_49} the lake really wasn't cleaned up until Nuc power came into play
[13:23] {dino} asps, ocn lods
[13:23] {fish_49} Lake Erie is a clean lake now compared to late 70's and early 80's
[13:23] {fish_49} Welcome back Natan

[13:24] {dino} lol
[13:25] {dino} but before you could spell it backwards and frontwards the same
01[13:25] {Threei} nemo is so upset about not having a buddy for his satanic cult, he has suffocated the serpent with his bare hands
[13:25] {nemo} maybe he was drunk
[13:25] {nemo} Xcuse me
[13:26] {fish_49} Nathan I'm happy your not Satan. we can only have one satan in the room and we all know who that is right Nemo?
[13:26] {nemo} those cults are such amateurs
[13:26] {nathan} lol
01[13:26] {Threei} in nemo's vult there was supposed to be a buddy system
01[13:26] {Threei} cult
[13:26] {nemo} Les hasn't been here for a month Fish

01[13:30] {Threei} lol
[13:30] {dino} lol
[13:30] {nemo} guess Ron made a funny...
01[13:31] {Threei} nemo's right on this one, however painful it is to admit... "shaitan" is a word in middle asia languages, from republics of xUSSR
01[13:31] {Threei} haven't heard it in ages, just remembered when he typed that
[13:32] {nemo} Yeah, that side of the spirtual fauna is my bailiwick
[13:32] {fish_49} [13:31] {Threei} nemo's right on this one, even Vad admits Nemo is wrong most of the time
[13:33] {nemo} o.k. if the market gonna' drop the shorts should be forming now
[13:33] {fish_49} still range bound
[13:33] {nemo} That's a helluva' assumption for being such a noob here fishface
[13:34] {fish_49} assumption?
[13:34] {nemo} assertion
[13:34] {nemo} you're making an assumption which led to a written assertion
[13:34] {fish_49} you know what they say about assumptions and assertions
[13:35] {dino} asps vsm l .60
[13:35] {nemo} did you retire or get fired by the Feds?

[13:39] {nemo} not to be confused with trout
[13:39] {nemo} doesn't matter
[13:40] {nemo} you're looking for rationality in an irrational process
[13:40] {nemo} the market is a woman
[13:40] {nemo} with sharp teeth claws and venom
01[13:40] {Threei} weird... mine is all smooth and curvy

[14:03] {fish_49} no place for a stop Vad?
[14:03] {nathan} di you jump into FB?
01[14:04] {Threei} no
[14:04] {fish_49} could bounce here
01[14:04] {Threei} just no clear setup
01[14:11] {Threei} grrrr
01[14:11] {Threei} one that got away
01[14:11] {Threei} right idea, haven't found the setup
01[14:13] {Threei} Federal court orders Google to take down YouTube anti-Muslim video 'Innocence of Muslims'
01[14:13] {Threei} really?
01[14:13] {Threei} we are takign down offensive things now?
[14:13] {fish_49} huh?
[14:13] {fish_49} OMG
[14:14] {fish_49} are they going to say it will be the cause of another benghazi?
01[14:14] {Threei} I demand taking down Inconvenient Truth, it offends me deeply as it does away with reality and insults any sane person intelligence
[14:15] {RonS} dems mountin full frontal war on free speech...someone needs to find a new Lenny Bruce...
01[14:15] {Threei} that's OK, we can all convert to turkish lira and immigrate to Ukraine
01[14:15] {Threei} oh wait...
[14:16] {nathan} what's going on in FB?
01[14:16] {Threei} no news
[14:17] {nathan} are the going to buy Microsoft paint?
01[14:17] {Threei} lol
01[14:17] {Threei} (US) Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Camp (R-MI) releases details of his tax simplification plan- As previously reported the plan cuts US income tax brackets to only two (10% and 25%), phased in over five years. This would be offset by eliminating numerous and varied tax breaks that have been added into the tax code over decades. - The Camp tax plan is not expected to get much traction in Washington, but could serve as a starting point for future efforts on tax reform and simplification.
[14:18] {nemo} senate already told him to pound sand
01[14:18] {Threei} almost bounce time, FB
[14:18] {nathan} will break the 69? :-)
01[14:19] {Threei} I think so
[14:19] {dino} pega sm l .00
[14:19] {nemo} frickin' twtr, dropped .80 like a double diamond slope
01[14:19] {Threei} Long Setup: FB 69 break
01[14:19] {Threei} If holds .90
01[14:19] {Threei} risky one
01[14:19] {Threei} but all bottom fishing is
01[14:19] {Threei} 1:1
01[14:20] {Threei} 1:2
01[14:21] {Threei} man... positive for the day
[14:21] {fish_49} I missed it but have a question
01[14:21] {Threei} two huge clusters, losing one in the morning, winning one after that
01[14:21] {Threei} rare occurence
01[14:21] {Threei} normally they are mixed more evenly
01[14:22] {Threei} why missed? it wasn't particularly fast on a break
01[14:22] {Threei} 1:3
01[14:22] {Threei} and returned to .01
[14:25] {fish_49} Vad so the pop up was on decreased volume would that be an indication of a continuation down ?
01[14:26] {Threei} why decreased? 14:20 candle is quite nice volume
[14:26] {fish_49} yes
[14:26] {fish_49} then after that on a 3 min i see very lil vol
01[14:26] {Threei} even karger than 14:15, largest red one up tio that point
[14:27] {fish_49} Obviously I'm wrong it continues up
01[14:27] {Threei} trade in progress already by that time, just manage it
01[14:27] {Threei} standard operating procedure kicks in
[14:28] {fish_49} yea I was not asking about that just tring to learn about volume
01[14:28] {Threei} volume is still larger on green candles than on red ones after bottoming
01[14:28] {Threei} compare them between themselves to see how forces are distributed now
01[14:30] {Threei} you can also view it this way:
01[14:30] {Threei} decline after 14:15 was on decreasing volume,
01[14:30] {Threei} which indicated sellers running out of gas
01[14:30] {Threei} let see if this is double bottom
01[14:31] {Threei} crap, late
01[14:31] {Threei} too fast
01[14:31] {Threei} Long Setup: WMT .40 break
01[14:32] {Threei} If holds .34
01[14:33] {Threei} ugh... such nice db setup
01[14:34] {Threei} Poll: 42% of Dems Prefer Biden to Run for Prez

01[15:16] {Threei} yes thom
01[15:17] {Threei} see fish... you make this mistake
[15:17] {darekj} ty Vad-grate job today :)
01[15:17] {Threei} you think
01[15:17] {Threei} darek :)
[15:17] {fish_49} mistake?
01[15:17] {Threei} yes
01[15:17] {Threei} you think
01[15:17] {Threei} I don't
01[15:17] {Threei} or at least, I think twice before thinking
[15:17] {fish_49} being up $180 dollars on a day like today I don't think was a mistake
[15:18] {fish_49} ok I will try not to think
01[15:18] {Threei} and if you got thosde 2 1:3ers on FB...
01[15:18] {Threei} you will find it very liberating
[15:19] {fish_49} ohhh if I caught that i would be on top of the world
01[15:19] {Threei} I have to think only when I have to explain the decision-making
[15:19] {fish_49} I'm actually proud of myself taking TWTR shjort at .80 and getting .30 cents on the short and calling the bounce
01[15:19] {Threei} good job
[15:20] {fish_49} your paid to think I get paid to follow your advice lol
01[15:20] {Threei} I don't believe I will be very far from truth when say" process of learning to trade in larger part isd a process of un-learning to think
[15:20] {fish_49} only 10 shares on TWTR just trying it as a confidence booster
[15:21] {fish_49} ok let me show you the volume issue I was asking about with FB b4

[15:24] {fish_49} http://s1332.photobucket.com/user/bkhmd/media/FBvol_zpsc13163a6.jpg.html
[15:24] {fish_49} this is what I was talking about earlier
01[15:25] {Threei} well, on a big scheme of things, look at FB
01[15:25] {Threei} it was a lousy bounce
[15:25] {fish_49} On a 3 min chart I watched price rise .40 cents but volume was decreased significantly and my instinct was to get short which would have paid off on a scalp
01[15:26] {Threei} and it retreated under 69 twice since then and it reatreats now again
[15:26] {fish_49} yep
01[15:26] {Threei} another matter is, for our purposes the scale of themove was such that even that lousy bounce provided us with quite enough room to profit
01[15:27] {Threei} (UR) US Sec State Kerry: US is considering plan to offer Ukraine $1.0B in loan guarantees plus further direct financial aid- Russian military moves against Ukraine would be a very grave, costly mistake
01[15:28] {Threei} Kerry... Putin plays chess, you barely learned how to put checkers on the board
01[15:28] {Threei} let alone actuaklly play them
[15:28] {fish_49} I don't trust Kerry
[15:28] {fish_49} Does he come from Mass?
[15:28] {RonS} ketchup
[15:29] {fish_49} who else do we know that is in Mass?
[15:29] {nemo} yeah, and basically works in the middle of Maryland
[15:29] {fish_49} and who else do we know that came from Maryland but lives in Mass now?
[15:29] {fish_49} lol
[15:29] {fish_49} Checkmate I win Toad
[15:30] {nemo} he doesn't live in MA, just a mailing address
[15:36] {nemo} Are you insinuating I came from Maryland?
[15:37] {fish_49} not at all
[15:37] {nemo} good
[15:40] {thomcbell} jcp very impressive squeezing
[15:44] {fish_49} Thom do you trade JCP?
[15:45] {thomcbell} no
[15:46] {thomcbell} i prefer 20 and above price
[15:47] {thomcbell} probably a good scalp short here
[15:47] {thomcbell} but not doing it
[15:47] {dino} do it tbell, we all did
01[15:51] {Threei} OK guys, thank you all
