short

excellent long setup at 245pm eastern
[12:04 pm] Mitch : ort in BC, should get a
short, micro trade
[12:05 pm] Mitch : something is going on with
CSTR, not liking it as a long
[12:06 pm] Mitch : about those rules you are
talking about trv….. I find you can break
one of the rules occasionally but you cant
break two at a time and get away with it
without a loss. if you break 3 rules, odds
are real high you will lose
[12:06 pm] Mitch : let’s forget BC short
idea, too late in day
[12:14 pm] Mitch : if you went long CSTR last
few min, you might want to sell soon on this
rise
[12:14 pm] Mitch : not a short on top of
bounce like in morning, just sell most of
long
[12:14 pm] Mitch : use limit orders
[12:36 pm] Mitch : so the opportunity in TSA
is very quick and a little higher risk
[12:36 pm] Mitch : the general trend is up,
probably continues but not necessarily at
this rate
[01:00 pm] Brent : have a great night, see
you all in the morning

[08:36 am] apple : me too
[08:37 am] trvlntrdr : based on Kris
recommendation
[08:37 am] trvlntrdr : I thought the higher

out
[08:38 am] candelas : always have to think

like it was consolidating
[09:20 am] mhaus : big climbs
[09:21 am] dmitry : MDRX is showing some
love
[09:21 am] eyes-inthenow : What do you Think
BRENT on TIF
[09:22 am] Brent : TIF looks strong to me
[09:22 am] shark : AMZN alert!
[09:28 am] mhaus : CNH!
[09:28 am] sonorant : mhaus, thanks for
TEX
[09:30 am] mhaus : watching EV
[09:31 am] mhaus : SPY up but SINA down?
[09:31 am] anthonyb : break even day for me.
I missed some good trades but I can’t trade
them all. See you all tomorrow, and Rusty,
remember to wash your hands
[09:33 am] mhaus : watching WDR
[09:33 am] sonorant : missed
[09:33 am] sonorant : missed EQIX, when it
went, it went fast
[09:34 am] shark : LULU testing hod[09:36
am] pmarvel : Mhause, WDR trending up?
[09:36 am] mhaus : still up on 3M fade
[09:39 am] eyes-inthenow : Qwert how are you
doing today
[09:40 am] michael : FSLR moving up with
volume
[09:40 am] sonorant : candles, what is your
hit on WDR? It is an upward trending stock,
or a turning over stock?
[09:41 am] mhaus : WDR looks strong to me.
Brent, Mitch, care to comment?
[09:42 am] sonorant : yes, I shorted it, and
now wonder if I should have bought on the
dip. Or done NEITHER!
[09:42 am] mhaus : FSLR
[09:42 am] rusty : solars hod[09:45 am]
mhaus : BEN
[09:45 am] apple : B what do you think of
ILMN for a swing?
[09:46 am] apple : RVBD?
[09:47 am] Brent : I don’t like ILMN here
apple, has resistance at 32.50 area
[09:48 am] apple : thx, RVBD?
[09:49 am] sonorant : mhaus, thanks for FSLR
— man you are cranking them out this
morning. Maybe Mitch should put you on
payroll!! (Or at least manage one share for
you)
[09:50 am] shark : LULU very good day -break
out over 50day MA – above avg vol.
[09:52 am] Brent : RVBD is interesting apple,
could have another day or two up if the
market stays up. Strong resistance at $30
though
[09:52 am] apple : great, thx!
[09:52 am] Brent : so not a lot of room at
this price
[09:55 am] lightning : watching ILMN for
possible short
[09:57 am] candelas : thx for Ilmn[10:02 am]
mhaus : missed IMAX
[10:04 am] sonorant : that’s ok, we are all
waiting for ILMN to break down. Of course
candles got a better price than I did 😉
[10:05 am] eyes-inthenow : 5 for 5 losers
see you all tomorrow
[10:05 am] sonorant : tomorrow is another
day
[10:06 am] sonorant : thoughts on ILMN?
patience, or exit?
[10:07 am] lightning : Sonorant, I’m no pro,
but I am still short ILMN with a stop a few
cents above HOD. But if it hovers for
another five minutes, I’m taking half off.
[10:07 am] trvlntrdr : ILMN looks like it is
consolidating for a move up to me
[10:07 am] trvlntrdr : I don’t have a
position
[10:08 am] shark : I agree, trvlntrdr[10:09
am] trvlntrdr : Now the Spy is a little less
clear to me
[10:10 am] trvlntrdr : I was going to go
long Rimm but I want the spy to declare it
self
[10:10 am] candelas : i was able to get .25
and left ILMN
[10:10 am] trvlntrdr : ILMN will show itself
soon in this pattern
[10:11 am] shark : nice, slow drip up,
profit on LULU
[10:12 am] sonorant : I took 15 cents on 1/3
of my shares, have the stop just above hod,
and am sitting on the last 2/3
[10:12 am] sonorant : out ILMN
[10:12 am] trvlntrdr : we will know soon
[10:12 am] sonorant : I’m not going to fight
a breakout of the SPY
[10:13 am] trvlntrdr : good idea
[10:14 am] trvlntrdr : it still amazes me
when previously in-sync stocks don’t go up or
down with a breakout
[10:14 am] richard : PCP
[10:14 am] sonorant : I know trvln — you
think you know just what will happen, and
then…. it doesn’t
[10:14 am] doji : wow, the market has
rallied out…. we missed the swings
[10:15 am] sonorant : what does trvlntrdr
stand for?
[10:15 am] trvlntrdr : travelin’ trader
[10:16 am] mhaus : Mitch, what are your
thoughts for swing on a small TZA long?
[10:17 am] sonorant : got it. So I could
have hung on to my ILMN and waited for it to
sink.
[10:17 am] shark : TZA ? based on what
mhaus?
[10:17 am] mhaus : rubber band theory
[10:17 am] shark : reversion to the mean?
[10:17 am] mhaus : yes
[10:18 am] trvlntrdr : i don’t think it is
clear yet about ILMN
[10:18 am] shark : I would wait for more
clues that the market is reverting to the
mean
[10:18 am] mhaus : CLF
[10:18 am] shark : could run another 1-2
days
[10:18 am] mhaus : that’s what I am afraid
of
[10:18 am] shark : anybody in with me on
LULU?
[10:19 am] doji : Any ideas guys? Afraid of
entering any long after this big rally
[10:19 am] shark : wait for pull backs
doji[10:20 am] sonorant : the rubber band
theory. I love it. Still need to take a
break. Got sucked into the vortex here
😉
[10:20 am] candelas : what’s ur entry on
ILMN Sonorant
[10:20 am] doji : That is easy to say than
to catch Shark
[10:20 am] Brent : nice job shark on LULU, I
still have a small piece
[10:20 am] shark : Awesome! 🙂
[10:20 am] trvlntrdr : FSLR weakening after
a good run
[10:21 am] rusty : DDD radar
[10:22 am] rusty : PG lod[10:22 am] rusty :
pardon on PG … bad tick
[10:22 am] trvlntrdr : with ILMN long
consolidation it could have a strong move
[10:22 am] rusty : PG fading not lod[10:23
am] rusty : have a good day all
[10:30 am] mhaus : EQIX
[10:30 am] richard : WBC new high
[10:31 am] lightning : watching VIT for
possible short
[10:33 am] pmarvel : Mhaus EQIX forming 3
min fade?
[10:34 am] lightning : VPRT on a roll here,
but I’d like to see more volume
[10:37 am] sonorant : what has happened to
EQIX? computer got it by the throat?
[10:39 am] sonorant : ILMN broke out —
up!
[10:39 am] doji : People are buying sticks
as if there were no tomorrow!
[10:40 am] eyes-inthenow : 5 for 5 losers I
can’t do this much longer all were three M
fades
[10:40 am] trvlntrdr : It was looking that
way– I was a little nervous but I almost
bought it long
[10:40 am] trvlntrdr : with the long
consolidation I figured ILMN would have power
to go somewhere
[10:40 am] sonorant : I have been nailed
multiple times on the 3M fades eyes…
[10:41 am] sonorant : they are the best and
worst of both worlds for me.
[10:41 am] sonorant : I keep trying to
figure out how candles always sneaks in and
out of them so well.
[10:41 am] eyes-inthenow : well the way i
see it at least i had a plan today it just
did not work
[10:41 am] derns : TZA is so low..the market
is so strong
[10:42 am] trvlntrdr : I got stopped out of
TZA twice
[10:42 am] candelas : a whole lot of
practice and study and study and practice
[10:42 am] sonorant : and picking your brain
whenever possible for how to do it RIGHT!
[10:42 am] candelas : that’s a scary
thought, LOL
[10:42 am] derns : As Kris said the other
day, markets are irrational…I am really
surprised on how strong it is.
[10:42 am] sonorant : no, it isn’t.
[10:43 am] sonorant : I caught the ILMN
breakout — had an alert set. Have taken 2
profits already because I am a chicken heart,
but have one bullet left.
[10:43 am] trvlntrdr : I should have bought
ILMN.
[10:43 am] michael : DDD has possibilities
for a long
[10:43 am] trvlntrdr : But I was looking at
a 1min chart and thought it was 2– therefore
taking too long
[10:44 am] trvlntrdr : lol– live and
learn– again!
[10:44 am] Brent : what were the 5 3 min
fades eyes?
[10:44 am] Brent : I’ll look at them if you
want
[10:45 am] sonorant : I have done that
travelin’
[10:45 am] trvlntrdr : well there will be
more money to be made and lost in the
market!
[10:46 am] sonorant : this is true.
[10:46 am] trvlntrdr : But the ILMN breakout
turned out to be better than the Rimm I was
working
[10:47 am] sonorant : well I got in at
32.37, after it crossed hod, and it is at
32.68 now, so just 1% — if I were to get the
max, unless it goes up more
[10:48 am] eyes-inthenow : ERTS WDC TIF
CLI
[10:48 am] sonorant : and I have already
taken profits. So it is a drop against my
mistakes, not a home run. But every drop
counts,
[10:49 am] trvlntrdr : so you reversed
position
[10:49 am] trvlntrdr : I thought you were
short
[10:49 am] sonorant : I am in the black
$16.60, which is nothing short of a minor
miracle.
[10:50 am] sonorant : After someone said
something about a breakout from the
consolidation, I put alert lines above and
below the channel. I had already exited the
trade when the SPY spiked.
[10:50 am] sonorant : exited the first ILMN
trade.
[10:50 am] trvlntrdr : OK — I was one of
the ones who thought it was consolidation to
go up
[10:51 am] Brent : ok eyes
[10:51 am] trvlntrdr : I didn’t see your
other post a few minutes ago because I was
away
[10:51 am] Brent : ERTS….. good setup, just
didn’t work
[10:52 am] Brent : WDC, another good setup.
Following the rules, you shouldn’t have
stopped out.
[10:52 am] michael : Long DDD @ 16.70
[10:53 am] Brent : TIF, didn’t move enough
for 3 min fade. Where you shorted it moved
less than 3%
[10:53 am] doji : Michael, if the SPY
reverses, DDD will sink
[10:53 am] Brent : CLI, another good setup,
nothing you could do there
[10:53 am] eyes-inthenow : WDC I stopped
myself out sideways movement for too long
[10:54 am] Brent : did you add your second
half after the retest of the low?
[10:54 am] trvlntrdr : NFLX got off its
trendline, negative divergence in macd and
stochs so I am short
[10:56 am] pmarvel : Mhaus, EQIX 3 min fade
seems not working
[10:56 am] sonorant : Brent, what was the
time of the WDC trade? I am looking at the 3
minute chart on that and it looks really
rough. If I were to have gone in at27.08,
I’m not sure I would have taken any profit
before it simply went down.
[10:56 am] sonorant : or rather sideways, as
eyes says.
[10:56 am] eyes-inthenow : 77.51 up to 79
.27 isn’t that a 3%
[10:58 am] mhaus : it still looks strong on
3M
[10:58 am] Brent : 2.3% eyes
[10:58 am] pmarvel : Yes it is Mhaus[10:59
am] eyes-inthenow : No i did not my bad i
just tightened my stop
[10:59 am] Brent : sonorant, you are correct
on WDC. Just saying following the rules, it
would’ve worked out. I’ve been known to
break the rules too though, lol[10:59 am]
mhaus : somebody tied a rock to SINA
[11:00 am] Brent : I broke my rule on MDRX,
and missed out huge
[11:00 am] sonorant : Brent, I usually think
of a 3 minute fade as a faster move up.
Should I be thinking a longer time frame?
[11:00 am] Brent : shouldn’t have stopped on
that one
[11:01 am] sonorant : so on MDRX you had too
tight of a stop?
[11:01 am] Brent : they should happen within
the first 12-15 min
[11:02 am] sonorant : okay great, thnx. TIF
was really an upward trending stock, wasn’t
it? So the issue was seeing it through that
lens rather than as a reversal.
[11:02 am] sonorant : yes?
[11:02 am] Brent : depends on what the market
is doing. If the SPY is selling off but your
long position is consolidating and not
breaking down, you can be more patient
[11:02 am] sonorant : right, have to
remember to look at the SPY
[11:03 am] Brent : It’s when the SPY is
moving up and your long position isn’t, is
where you need to be more cautious
[11:03 am] eyes-inthenow : Today is the only
day that I actually traded a strategey o well
was i at least good on my analytics
[11:03 am] qwert : ilmn coming back to test
the breakout
[11:03 am] pmarvel : FSLR going hod after
hod.
[11:03 am] trvlntrdr : I thought FSLR was
turning over at 53 when it was just
consolidating
[11:04 am] sonorant : So CLI was a problem
because it went down again a little too much
after the initial setup, yes?
[11:04 am] pmarvel : FSLR shortable
now???
[11:04 am] Brent : most were good setups
eyes
[11:05 am] sonorant : CLI was wicked. It
would almost have been easier to trade on a 1
minute chart.
[11:05 am] sonorant : that is a really good
lesson.
[11:06 am] eyes-inthenow : thanks Brent for
looking
[11:06 am] pmarvel : FSLR shortable?
[11:06 am] sonorant : and on a two minute
chart, CLI was picture perfect! pays to
check multiple time frames I guess.
[11:06 am] trvlntrdr : I think FSLR is a
trending stock
[11:06 am] Brent : Sure eyes
[11:07 am] michael : FSLR still looks a
little strong
[11:07 am] pmarvel : OK I see its too
strong
[11:07 am] trvlntrdr : If you short it you
are playing with fire
[11:08 am] doji : DDD doing well Michael,
good job
[11:08 am] pmarvel : GMCR?
[11:08 am] trvlntrdr : you might look at
shorting Sina[11:08 am] doji : TZA
[11:09 am] trvlntrdr : maybe not
[11:09 am] michael : thank you Doji, I
bailed at 17, too early of course
[11:10 am] doji : FSLR dropping
[11:12 am] sonorant : there is a lot to
learn from those 4 charts eyes… it is a
process thanks for sharing so I could learn
from them too.
[11:13 am] trvlntrdr : I can’t get SINA
[11:15 am] michael : MAKO dropping but lower
volume stock
[11:16 am] eyes-inthenow : how about PPO
[11:16 am] eyes-inthenow : too strong
Brent
[11:21 am] Brent : I don’t care for it
eyes
[11:21 am] Brent : PPO that is
[11:21 am] eyes-inthenow : ya it looks
strong
[11:23 am] pmarvel : TNA bouncing but FSLR
not
[11:26 am] pmarvel : Mitch so FSLR should be
shorted? I’m in long
[11:26 am] joeytsa : just checking
in…noticed the VIX has dropped 15% to
25.39
[11:28 am] michael : pmarvel I was hoping
FSLR went up one more time and turned over
below hod[11:28 am] truck : Mitch,,,good
call on swing,,ONNN[11:31 am] candelas : a
lot of money managers are underwater this

[11:32 am] michael : sorry, should have
completed my thought. Just wanted to move up

quick
[11:58 am] pmarvel : CAM 2nd helping?
[12:00 pm] trvlntrdr : I am finding the more
I trade exactly as mitch teaches the better
it goes
[12:01 pm] Mitch : good to hear trv; i find
if i follow what i teach the better things go
too
[12:01 pm] trvlntrdr : If I just keep all
the rules in my head at once I would have
less trouble!
[12:01 pm] trvlntrdr : If it goes wrong I
usually dropped one of the rules
[12:01 pm] joeytsa : tape the rules to the
side of the monitor
[12:01 pm] trvlntrdr : I read them before I
start in the am!
[12:02 pm] joeytsa : very smart
[12:02 pm] trvlntrdr : But easy to forget in
the excitement
[12:02 pm] trvlntrdr : one or two
[12:02 pm] mhaus : CSTR
[12:03 pm] truck : trvintrdr,,what ever
works for you,,fine,,,but, I cannot keep them
all in my head. I have them written
down,,,and I review them for 15-20 minutes
before the market opens….Still need to do
that.
[12:03 pm] trvlntrdr : but I do recommend
the Wizard training course and advance
scalping
[12:03 pm] mhaus : BC
[12:03 pm] trvlntrdr : I do the exact same
thing
[12:03 pm] joeytsa : mine says ” the only
valid reason to buy a stock is that it is
rising in price. If the price is rising, no
other reason is needed, if the price is not
rising, no other resons aer worth
considering”
[12:03 pm] trvlntrdr : I review them at the
beginning
[12:03 pm] trvlntrdr : and now I review them
at lunch
[12:03 pm] mhaus : NOG
[12:04 pm] doji : FSLR
[12:04 pm] trvlntrdr : I still make a lot of
errors but it usually goes back to forgetting
one or more rules
[12:04 pm] mhaus : VPRT
[12:04 pm] trvlntrdr : but at the moment it
is good
[12:04 pm] trvlntrdr : short FSLR, SINA,
NFLX
[12:05 pm] shark : bowling for $$$ – nice
mhaus[12:06 pm] trvlntrdr : I try not to
break any but sometimes break several
[12:06 pm] mhaus : out CSTR
[12:07 pm] trvlntrdr : I also don’t trust
myself
[12:07 pm] mhaus : out early 🙁
[12:07 pm] Mitch : you are coming up with
some good stuff mhaus[12:07 pm] trvlntrdr :
but as Brent pointed out yesterday, with
small positions you can be less fearful
[12:07 pm] mhaus : thanks Mitch
[12:08 pm] mhaus : my ATM is set for $0.50
profit, so many times I quit early
[12:09 pm] joeytsa : you can make a ton of
money picking off 50cents all day long 😉
[12:09 pm] mhaus : yes, but it is also a lot
of work with 100 share lots
[12:09 pm] joeytsa : true
[12:09 pm] trvlntrdr : mhaus the same goes
for me and I also find it does get the most
of the profit. except the runners
[12:09 pm] lightning : watching CSTR for a
bounce…and BC for a reversal
[12:10 pm] truck : It takes a weak stock to
be down 2% today….CSTR
[12:10 pm] lightning : oops, ok forget BC
[12:10 pm] joeytsa : but the good thing is,
to make more money you just have to get the
point where you can have more shares working
for you
[12:10 pm] trvlntrdr : you are right
joey!!!
[12:10 pm] joeytsa : slowly build up
[12:10 pm] trvlntrdr : that is my plan!
[12:11 pm] trvlntrdr : even on IB the
commissions eat you up
[12:11 pm] joeytsa : i started with 200
shares at the beginning
[12:11 pm] doji : What is going on with
CSTR?
[12:11 pm] rusty : 39 minutes until
hod[12:11 pm] joeytsa : good thing you
didn’t start trading a dozen yrs ago
[12:11 pm] joeytsa : i was jumping for joy
when i got my commissions under $50 RT
haha[12:12 pm] joeytsa : back flipped when
they got under $20 RT
[12:12 pm] doji : missed FSLR
[12:12 pm] trvlntrdr : FSLR s at 54.28
[12:13 pm] rusty : CSTR rumor possible delay
of new movies
[12:13 pm] doji : I was looking at 54.5 when
CAM got my attention
[12:13 pm] joeytsa : re: CSTR….don’t they
announce today??
[12:13 pm] trvlntrdr : I know there are only
so many things you can focus on
[12:14 pm] rusty : CSTR earnings after
close
[12:14 pm] Mitch : thanks rusty
[12:14 pm] rusty : .89 expected
[12:15 pm] joeytsa : i don’t like seeing
stocks fall into earnings
[12:15 pm] trvlntrdr : FSLR was a good stock
for a beginner like me to trade today
[12:17 pm] joeytsa : yeah FSLR nice uptrend
after the early drop…
[12:17 pm] joeytsa : looks like it followed
the 20ma from around 48 to just over 54
[12:17 pm] trvlntrdr : I should have just
stayed in it all day but I moved in and
out
[12:18 pm] trvlntrdr : Anyway it did behave
like a good stock
[12:18 pm] joeytsa : that’s ok…it’s easy
to see after the fact
[12:18 pm] trvlntrdr : SINA is a bad stock
though
[12:18 pm] trvlntrdr : out of FSLR at
53.03
[12:19 pm] joeytsa : SINA early was ok
[12:19 pm] trvlntrdr : I just mean I have a
hard time getting the pattern
[12:19 pm] mhaus : CTXS
[12:21 pm] shawnt4 : I bet we get a lot of
shorts tomorrow
[12:21 pm] joeytsa : just keep studying
charts
[12:21 pm] shawnt4 : I don’t believe things
are as rosy as everybody says
[12:21 pm] trvlntrdr : yer right joey, keep
studying
[12:21 pm] truck : CTXS,,,,up 18% in one
day… Amazing
[12:22 pm] trvlntrdr : Shawnt4– you know
what warren Buffet says
[12:22 pm] shawnt4 : what
[12:22 pm] trvlntrdr : buy when others are
fearful
[12:22 pm] mhaus : QSII
[12:22 pm] trvlntrdr : be fearful when they
are greedy
[12:22 pm] joeytsa : so does that mean he
said : sell when others are hopeful”
[12:23 pm] trvlntrdr : actually I think it
is greedy when they are fearful
[12:23 pm] trvlntrdr : fearful when they are
greedy
[12:24 pm] mhaus : MMM downgraded, still
strong
[12:25 pm] trvlntrdr : Take it easy
everyone–
[12:26 pm] shawnt4 : we are going to get
them tomorrow
[12:26 pm] shawnt4 : bang
[12:26 pm] mhaus : Mitch, I would like to
get your comments on a small TZA long for
swing.
[12:26 pm] trvlntrdr : thanks for everyone’s
help
[12:28 pm] mhaus : CLF
[12:29 pm] mhaus : CSTR really tanked
[12:29 pm] joeytsa : re: CSTR drop…almost
like yesterdays time-lag drop
[12:29 pm] joeytsa : there was that big
drop, and about a 20 minute lag to the next
drop
[12:30 pm] michael : DDD may be a good long
if it can turn back up above 16.10
[12:30 pm] joeytsa : happened on CRM
yesterday after the mention of it being the
next big short
[12:30 pm] mhaus : Mitch, I am L
[email protected]
[12:30 pm] mhaus : target 27.5
[12:30 pm] joeytsa : rusty: did you happen
to see if any news came out on CRM at the top
of teh hour?
[12:31 pm] joeytsa : thanks, i have been in
and out
[12:33 pm] joeytsa : mhaus: be careful with
TZA, it hit a 52wk low today
[12:33 pm] joeytsa : when the market turns,
it should be a great play
[12:33 pm] mhaus : joey, I am long and have
5c to go
[12:33 pm] mhaus : sell target is 27.5
[12:34 pm] mhaus : made it
[12:34 pm] joeytsa : nice
[12:35 pm] joeytsa : just be careful when
you fight the dominant trend 🙂
[12:35 pm] mhaus : That’s why I wanted
Mitch’s comments
[12:35 pm] joeytsa : put the odds on your
side..someone very smart keeps whispering
that to me each night 🙂
[12:36 pm] Mitch : sorry mhaus, not big fan
of that TSA trade,
[12:36 pm] mhaus : He has always taught us
that you will get a small bounce at the
bottom
[12:36 pm] rusty : VIX is sitting on its
200d ma and at its lower bollinger
band…kind of a key area
[12:37 pm] mhaus : Mitch, I am looking for
small targets to reduce risk
[12:37 pm] mhaus : with that I am up almost
$900 today
[12:37 pm] rusty : nothing further joey
[12:37 pm] rusty : that I saw
[12:37 pm] joeytsa : thanks rusty…looked
like an exact copy play from yesterdays CRM
drop, 20 minute lag to the next drop
[12:38 pm] rusty : VIX

[12:38 pm] joeytsa : have a great day
everyone
[12:38 pm] mhaus : I will stop for the day
here.
[12:39 pm] mhaus : out flat 🙂
[12:40 pm] sonorant : mhaus — that is
really impressive. good work!
[12:41 pm] sonorant : how many trades?
[12:42 pm] mhaus : too many sonorant. almost
50 round trips
[12:42 pm] shark : Do you mean TNA,
Mitch?
[12:42 pm] mhaus : a few losses too in
that
[12:43 pm] mhaus : Shark, he was talking
about TZA
[12:43 pm] mhaus : replying to my
comments
[12:43 pm] shark : oh, ok. thx, mhaus[12:43
pm] sonorant : wow, that is a lot — but you
did well.
[12:43 pm] mhaus : I am ok as long as I am
in the green
[12:43 pm] doji : mhaus, did you do 50 trips
for 900 profit?
[12:44 pm] mhaus : yes doji[12:44 pm] mhaus
: small lots, small profit targets
[12:44 pm] mhaus : but my losses were also
in the 2~9 dollar range
[12:47 pm] sonorant : small position sizes?
(though bigger than my 30 shares)?
[12:47 pm] mhaus : lol[12:48 pm] mhaus : my
lot sizes are of 100 each
[12:48 pm] sonorant : 50 trips at $20/trip
would be 1K
[12:48 pm] doji : L TZA 27.76
[12:48 pm] mhaus : should have held my TZA
🙁
[12:48 pm] doji : will ride it to the end
with stop at be
[12:49 pm] mhaus : I was [email protected]
[12:49 pm] doji : let’s see where it ends
[12:49 pm] sonorant : 100 shares at 20 cents
would be $20
[12:49 pm] mhaus : yes, about $23 after
commissions
[12:50 pm] sonorant : good work
[12:55 pm] doji : come on TZA give me
28.5
[12:55 pm] mhaus : you will make it
Doji[12:57 pm] sonorant : mhaus, if your
losses were that small , how tight were your
stops?
[12:58 pm] mhaus : very tight.
[12:58 pm] mhaus : didn’t want to take risks
today
[12:58 pm] sonorant : on all your trades?
was your strategy if it didn’t work, get
out?
[12:59 pm] doji : closing here TZA
[12:59 pm] lightning : Thanks TSA and
everyone. A little red today with some
3-minute head fakes, but feeling OK about the
trades themselves. See you tomorrow
[12:59 pm] sonorant : before the bell
doji[12:59 pm] doji : yeap[12:59 pm] mhaus
: yep. $0.25 profit, $0.1 trailing and $0.25
stop
[01:00 pm] doji : Good night guys, tomorrow
I’ll be able to trade the whole day !
[01:03 pm] michael : I guess CSTR have good
news
[01:05 pm] lightning : michael, CSTR just
announced better than expected quarterly
earnings
[01:05 pm] michael : I would like to trade
those sometimes but too wacked for my
taste
[01:06 pm] lightning : I agree, but the
volume can get so small in the aftermarket I
wouldn’t know how to trade it.
[01:07 pm] michael : I’ve tried a couple
times but not able to do it with any
consistency at all.
[01:09 pm] michael : guess the news wasn’t
so good after all. 10% up and 20% down all
in less than 10 minutes
[01:12 pm] lightning : lol, just a 12 point
swing on CSTR in the last 10 minutes.
Someone made money, but if I was in it, I’d
probably be on the wrong side. 🙂
[01:13 pm] michael : seems like so many
times it moves in the opposite direction
first, like they draw you in then sink you
