[08:52 am] joeytsa : im going thru ls for
esignal…now i just have to trade 250k
shares/month and i get it free 🙂
[08:53 am] joeytsa : watching CRM again
[08:53 am] lightning : joey, is that esignal
deal thru Lightspeed?
[08:54 am] joeytsa : yeah
lightning…haven’t fully checked it out yet
though
[08:54 am] rusty : SINA lod[08:55 am]
lightning : Joey, I haven’t heard about that
deal, but if it is true, I need to call
them!
[08:55 am] willm : I’m watching DSW but
don’t know what signal to enter. Help
[08:55 am] pandozzi : joey i use
schwab[08:55 am] aussie123 : Insiders have
been jumping ship in CRM
[08:55 am] lightning : I get e-signal at a
25% discount, and then get my futures quotes
for free through esignal when I linked to my
futures broker.
[08:55 am] joeytsa : go to lightspeed
homepage, click tools and education on top,
then stock scanning link in the online
trading partners box
[08:56 am] lightning : the 25% discount was
through Lightspeed….ok I’ll go to their
homepage. Thanks.

than ssp[08:57 am] pandozzi : me to man
[08:57 am] joeytsa : i use it for charts
[08:57 am] joeytsa : i like the way you can
detach the pages to separate monitors
[08:57 am] joeytsa : only thing i hate is
you can only have 8pgs/20charts
[08:58 am] pandozzi : yes I’m learning with
the new system as i trade.
[08:58 am] joeytsa : that’s what i will be
doing the rest of the year
[08:58 am] lightning : joey, I see…for
each month you trade 250,000 shares you get
it for free. I’ve got to see how many shares
I trade!
[08:58 am] joeytsa : i won’t use sse on the
new setup..keep it on my current one
[08:58 am] Mitch K: how do you like the edge
pandoz[08:58 am] mikewd2 -: DSW turning
over
[08:58 am] joeytsa : it’s a decent platform
mitch[08:58 am] joeytsa : charting is much
better than lightspeed[08:59 am] joeytsa :
lightspeed pivot points are way off for some
reason
[08:59 am] scalpman : DSW S @ 44.25
[08:59 am] joeytsa : but the funny thing is,
that they are still fairly accurate…must be
a lot of ls users

seem to like it the best

trade, not the true price you would get.
virtual gets better pricing
[09:02 am] mhaus : US sues CEG
[09:02 am] mhaus : sues to block CEG’s

right
[09:10 am] apple : don’t laugh too hard, i
bought CEG when i wanted to sell and still
made over $500. lucky!
[09:11 am] michael : apple, some of my best
trades have been mistakes. I’m best when I’m
out of the equation
[09:11 am] thomasohana : nice job apple!
[09:11 am] apple : sold at 38.10
[09:12 am] anthonyb : you really should send
that money to doji apple…

derns : nice intelligent trade apple..what
skill!
[09:12 am] pandozzi : nice apple
[09:12 am] lightning : there’s enough bad
luck in trading…you get to keep the good
luck every once in a while.

AMZN?
[09:13 am] rusty : SWI radar
[09:13 am] joeytsa : i will give you 3
guesses..and the 1st 2 don’t count 🙂

because of the rumor it might buy RIMM..buy
RIMM and your stock price tanks
[09:14 am] anthonyb : what’s your entry
Amazon joey?
[09:14 am] joeytsa : possibly
[09:14 am] scalpman : What caused the CEG

it can hit
[09:33 am] joeytsa : was just looking at the
chart…no way you got stopped
[09:33 am] mikewd2 -: that’s what happens
when you turn off the verification.
[09:34 am] joeytsa : and NO revenge trade
Mike haha[09:34 am] mikewd2 -: nah, it was
still a win. lunch money
[09:34 am] joeytsa : yeah i know…but i

now I’ll wait for them to test support
[10:00 am] joeytsa : nice uptrend on the ES
last 30 minutes
[10:03 am] rusty : Dow would be positive if
not for IBM
[10:04 am] joeytsa : that’s the prob with
the Dow
[10:04 am] joeytsa : cap-weighted
[10:20 am] joeytsa : if CRM can break above

do with VMW and SINA?
[10:37 am] willm : I missed NKE short
[10:38 am] apple : low of day
[10:38 am] weston : shot NKE 96.9
[10:38 am] willm : Then it means to long
SINA? Its going up
[10:39 am] apple : no, it just means low of
day
[10:39 am] mikewd2 -: just a note that SINA
is lod, nothing really implied.
[10:41 am] Ed : willm, i passed on nke bcuz
it was not enough money for me, i would be
looking for at least 1% so nothing for me
[10:41 am] pandozzi : joey what a ya think
about the wfm chart? I’m in at 68 2500
shares
[10:41 am] willm : Yes Ed, I tried to place
short order but it was not filled
[10:42 am] willm : Just trying to trade
[10:43 am] Ed : u should never trade for sake
of trading, better to give money to charity
instead, just saying
[10:43 am] apple : you are so right, E
[10:43 am] joeytsa : it’s coming into res
[10:44 am] joeytsa : just don’t let it turn
into a loss
[10:44 am] Ed : u want to have an edge, or
high probability of trade working in ur
favor
[10:44 am] willm : Got it Ed. I come to TSA
to learn trading. So I want to practice.
That’s all Ed
[10:44 am] joeytsa : double bottom around
67.85, in-between pivot/S1

scores this afternoon
[10:45 am] Ed : u definitely came to right
place
[10:45 am] joeytsa : if you stop and it
break thru, you can always get back in
[10:45 am] pandozzi : good point joe[10:45
am] apple : wilim, are you trading real
$?
[10:46 am] joeytsa : your entry is right
between those 2 areas
[10:46 am] joeytsa : break above might run
50cents, break below down $1?
[10:46 am] eyeoverpyramid : tso shorting
nicely
[10:46 am] willm : paper trade and some
small $. In the red so far
[10:47 am] thomasohana : willm you should
read “Technical Analysis of Financial
Markets” by John Murphy. When I first
started, Kris suggested that to me and the
book literally blew my mind. Things made much
more sense thereafter.
[10:47 am] apple : best to paper trade first
so you won’t lose too much money
[10:47 am] willm : OK I will
[10:50 am] eyeoverpyramid : covered tso
timely
[10:51 am] pandozzi : go wfm[10:52 am] willm

stop at 68.30
[10:57 am] Ed : not for me willm[10:57 am]
willm : Got it Ed
[10:59 am] Ed : matter of preference, it has
given moves both ways for measly .20 or .30,
but I want more and am willing to wait for
it. as .20 to .30 is not a lot on $97
stock
[11:02 am] willm : Is it called SPY
consolidating right now?
[11:03 am] willm : To break out upward
[11:09 am] rusty : STZ radar
[11:10 am] willm : SPY another
consolidation?
[11:11 am] doji : STZ is at the 200 SMA in
the daily Rusty
[11:12 am] lightning : I was just studying
away on charts and thought I’d check
[11:13 am] lightning : have an oil trade on
so I wasn’t just sitting around!
[11:14 am] pandozzi : where did you learn
the oil trades
[11:15 am] lightning : I paper traded for a
long time looking for a setup that works for
me. I started with a TSA oil trading video
that they sell.
[11:16 am] joeytsa : the CL makes some nice
moves at times
[11:16 am] lightning : it does. I’m short
at 9902, covered 1/2 already.
[11:17 am] joeytsa : haven’t followed it the
past couple days
[11:17 am] joeytsa : nice ed[11:18 am]
pandozzi : thx light im gonna look into
that
[11:18 am] pandozzi : what hours can you
trade oil
[11:19 am] pandozzi : is it by contract?
[11:19 am] lightning : pandozzi, yes. 1
contract = 1000 barrels.
[11:19 am] joeytsa : lightning..do you ever
trade the QM?
[11:19 am] lightning : only stocks and oil.
What’s the QM?
[11:20 am] mikewd2 -: wish google would just
buy IDCC, tired of the rumors
[11:20 am] rusty : IDCC radar
[11:20 am] pandozzi : thx light. i loved oil
short at 100..
[11:21 am] pandozzi : QM?
[11:21 am] rusty : IDDD patent infringement
news
[11:21 am] rusty : IDCC
[11:21 am] joeytsa : QM is the emini
crude
[11:21 am] qwert : thx ed for idcc
awesome!!!!
[11:22 am] rusty : ITC decides to
investigate LG infringement of IDCC
patents
[11:22 am] rusty : out few minutes ago
[11:22 am] mhaus : TDC
[11:22 am] thomasohana : Ed what’d you mean
by “advanced trade”, special strategy?
[11:22 am] mikewd2 -: good for IDCC
[11:22 am] eyeoverpyramid : got my quick 1%
on IDCC
[11:23 am] doji : He means this is a quick
trade, with high risk but also high potential
reward Thomas
[11:23 am] doji : Need a quick connection
and the right platform
[11:23 am] doji : An its’ a NASDAQ stock
that correct faster than the NYSE stocks
[11:24 am] thomasohana : got it, thanks
doji[11:25 am] Ed : so it’s best to trade the
news trades like that on virtual until u get
hang of them
[11:25 am] lightning : covered second 1/2 of
oil.
[11:25 am] Brent : good one Eddie
[11:25 am] eyeoverpyramid : Ed how do you do
that? Which news source?
[11:25 am] thomasohana : makes sense, thx
Ed.
[11:26 am] eyeoverpyramid : Ed and Brent did
you get it from PR NEWS?
[11:26 am] mikewd2 -: TDC
[11:26 am] Ed : scanner
[11:27 am] doji : CHKP approaching lod[11:27
am] eyeoverpyramid : Ed may I ask which
scanner,?
[11:27 am] Ed : on idcc, it just so happens i
was looking at stock and notice vol. was
picking up
[11:28 am] eyeoverpyramid : was it from
trade ideas?
[11:28 am] willm : Do it again Ed, 2 -4
times a day
[11:29 am] eyeoverpyramid : Ed it was so
short yet sweet. But which scanner. Is it
OK to ask
[11:29 am] doji : If I can add something, on
those quick trades, on the 1min chart I wait
for the volume the peak, then wait for the
second minute to confirm the previous one was
the top volume and on min 3min I jump into
the trade…obviously you need to see the
stock reverses the trend
[11:30 am] doji : I jump into the trade at
minute 3
[11:30 am] Ed : i use volatility scanner,
high/low scanner and just by checking put
charts through day
[11:30 am] mhaus : VMW
[11:31 am] eyeoverpyramid : thx Ed, care to
tell which scanner product/
[11:33 am] lightning : i don’t know what Ed
uses, but on my Lightspeed ticker alert,
which shows new highs and new lows of the
day, IDCC came up about about 30 times in a
row. That’s what I keep an eye out for.
[11:33 am] eyeoverpyramid : I’m
understanding that now. Thx apple.
[11:33 am] doji : I don’t have a scanner but
if I had one, the way to find these stocks
would be for accelerated price and
accelerated volume
[11:33 am] joeytsa : lightning, have you
tried madscan or trade ideas?
[11:34 am] doji : SPY at trendline
support
[11:34 am] joeytsa : pandozzi: did you raise
your stop on WFM?
[11:35 am] lightning : I use Trade-Ideas
before the market opens to look for
consolidating stocks (it’s free) but that’s
it. I’m going to get Trade-Ideas when I get
a new computer. I’m concerned that all the
charts + Lightspeed + futures broker +
Trade-Ideas may be one too many
applications.
[11:36 am] joeytsa : probably depends on the
computer
[11:36 am] joeytsa : some computers actually
run faster with more stuff going
[11:36 am] lightning : yep, but mine is a
five year old laptop that I have two other
monitors connected to.
[11:36 am] thomasohana : does any how a VWAP
indicator for ninja trader?
[11:36 am] joeytsa : gotya[11:36 am] mhaus
: Lightining, it would depend a lot on your
graphics card
[11:37 am] mhaus : most of the analysis is
done on the server and displayed on your
computer
[11:37 am] lightning : I agree mhaus, but
I’ve checked into it. I have 1 1GM graphics
card and 2GB ram.
[11:37 am] Ed : they are scanners i setup in
tradestation, 1 has volatility, the other
high/low no secret
[11:37 am] mhaus : run the task manager and
see the CPU usage
[11:38 am] joeytsa : i have 8 scans running,
but only rely on 3 of them for the most
part
[11:38 am] mhaus : increase your RAM to 3GB
id you are using a 32bit system or to 6gb if
you are using a 64bit system
[11:38 am] lightning : good idea mhaus. It
looks like it runs from 25% to 50% while I’m
not doing anything.
[11:39 am] mhaus : I am running a dual core
2GHz computer with 3GB memory and I am
running Ninja, Interactive brokers,
TradeIdeas and the TSA forum
[11:40 am] lightning : maybe that’s the
ticket until I get a new computer.
Thanks.
[11:40 am] mhaus : my computer is an old one
with a good graphics card
[11:40 am] mhaus : got the computer for $125
and the video card for $200
[11:41 am] lightning : lol…now that’s a
good investment!
[11:41 am] lightning : I asked Santa for a
falcon computer like Joey
[11:41 am] apple : that guy knows a
bargain
[11:41 am] mhaus : NFLX moving
[11:43 am] pandozzi : joey kept moving stop
I’m still in wfm[11:44 am] joeytsa : good
job pandozzi, you should be golden on that
trade
[11:44 am] willm : Brent PRGO staying
there
[11:44 am] doji : Thomas, ask Kris, he has
the application you have to upload in Ninja
to run the VWAP as far as I remember
[11:45 am] Brent : yeah, not interested in
PRGO here willm[11:45 am] mhaus : CTXS
[11:47 am] derns : Obama shops at Best
Buy..does that mean we should short it?
[11:50 am] willm : Brent PRGO moving down
slowly
[11:50 am] derns : IWM move up indicates
there are buyers out there, but RIMM and AMZN
appear to be weakening
[11:50 am] joeytsa : NTES dropping a bit
[11:52 am] joeytsa : not sure how much is
there..steady downtrend all day though
[11:53 am] joeytsa : yeah derns, AMZN is a
dog
[11:54 am] Ed : u still short joey
[11:54 am] joeytsa : i really thought they
would be doing good this time a year
[11:54 am] joeytsa : no ed, i got out
earlier..didn’t get back in
[11:54 am] Ed : pays not to be a pig, got out
of sina yesterday
[11:55 am] apple : smart E, followed your
advice, but wished i had shorted it
today…
[11:55 am] Ed : next time
[11:55 am] joeytsa : only need to be a pig
when its going your way 🙂
[11:56 am] doji : Hey, I just open my book

way
[12:00 pm] joeytsa : 5/15ma both sitting on
R1 and on the up trendline[12:01 pm] derns :
Joey..PRGO is near its all time high…would
you play a break out or resistance and pull
back if the market fades? I am just
following and learning..want to understand
your thots[12:02 pm] joeytsa : i wasn’t even
looking at the daily..thanks for reminding
me
[12:03 pm] derns : well..for that, if you
trade and make $, give me an “atta boy”
[12:04 pm] joeytsa : PRGO daily: triple top,
so it need a big push to new 52hi…so if a
long, then start small and wait for a
pullback to support to add on
[12:04 pm] derns : for our good friend joey,
sharing of his insight is pay day enough
[12:04 pm] joeytsa : where do you send the
check derns haha[12:04 pm] apple : we all

[12:16 pm] thomasohana : i work for a solar
company it is struggling
[12:16 pm] rusty : bk and consolidation is
good for FSLR
[12:16 pm] thomasohana : BAD
[12:16 pm] doji : Hey Thomas, I read that
the $/watt is now at 1
[12:16 pm] thomasohana : it sure is
[12:16 pm] doji : Sorry man
[12:16 pm] thomasohana : cost on material
wise
[12:17 pm] doji : My comment was generic,
sorry
[12:17 pm] doji : CHKP moving up
[12:17 pm] rusty : only way for solars to
get back up is with pricing…have to get rid
of the excess
[12:18 pm] rusty : capacity
[12:18 pm] doji : SPY now positive for the
day… it seems the market will finish
positive
[12:18 pm] thomasohana : they have to stop
misusing fed and state money too
[12:18 pm] rusty : right
[12:19 pm] rusty : government subsidies only
works for military contractors
[12:19 pm] rusty : and petrol lobby doesn’t
want solar or gas or any competition
[12:20 pm] joeytsa : lng might be the one to
move
[12:24 pm] joeytsa : for lng i keep watching
WPRT
[12:25 pm] joeytsa : lng=liquid natural gas,
not long 🙂
[12:25 pm] rusty : Nat gas = cheap,
plentiful and relatively clean
[12:25 pm] rusty : yet no one wants it
[12:26 pm] joeytsa : that’s why i like WPRT
rusty
[12:26 pm] doji : Any idea why the market is
moving now?
[12:27 pm] rusty : buyers doji[12:27 pm]
joeytsa : if/when the vehicle change is
made..they are the ones who make the
engines..plus have a couple of nice deals
with other companies
[12:27 pm] joeytsa : read that ups fleet is
switching, plus cars with lng engines, the
buyers get huge rebate
[12:28 pm] rusty : i am buying SQNS for
January effect. No rush. Slow and easy.
[12:29 pm] michael : yhoo is yahooing
[12:29 pm] joeytsa : rusty: do you play the
january effect both ways?
[12:30 pm] rusty : usually long
only…unless a parabolic move occurs
[12:30 pm] joeytsa : stock only or
options?
[12:30 pm] rusty : so many china cos on jan
list
[12:31 pm] joeytsa : i mean overall, not
SQNS per se
[12:31 pm] rusty : stock only
[12:31 pm] jsn13 : Joey thanks for ur
NTES…..drop in the bucket….
[12:31 pm] joeytsa : nice jsn !!!
[12:31 pm] rusty : could use options but I
don’t want to worry about time factor
[12:31 pm] derns : AMZN running
[12:31 pm] joeytsa : 3 month out, 75-80
delta
[12:32 pm] rusty : pls remember on Jan
effect plays…do not put all your $ into one
stock as much as you might be tempted. The
technique works with a basket of stocks.
[12:32 pm] joeytsa : i see that derns, nice
move
[12:32 pm] joeytsa : good reminder
[12:33 pm] rusty : RIMM was in the basket
but yesterday’s rumor killed it
[12:33 pm] joeytsa : i always thought the
jan effect was to sell the bad stocks and buy
the good ones correct?
[12:34 pm] joeytsa : thinking that managers
don’t want them on the books eoy[12:34 pm]
doji : FTNT
[12:34 pm] joeytsa : or do i have that
backwards
[12:34 pm] doji : resistance 1t 20
[12:35 pm] rusty : Tax loss selling brings
about discount prices and there is often a
natural rise/bounce in prices in Jan
[12:36 pm] joeytsa : right
[12:36 pm] rusty : works for market in
general but i try to improve odds by looking
for beaten down stocks that hopefully still
have some value
[12:37 pm] derns : rusty..that makes sense
to me, but I keep thinking the market run up
over the past week is short covering…would
that change your strategy?
[12:37 pm] joeytsa : makes sense
[12:37 pm] pandozzi : nice little run for
wfm since my departure
[12:37 pm] joeytsa : VMW moving
[12:38 pm] rusty : any premature/fast run up
in prices before eoy usually makes me take
stock off the list
[12:38 pm] rusty : e.g. RIMM
[12:38 pm] joeytsa : yeah pandozzi, hit prev
cl turned back a bit
[12:38 pm] rusty : I sold puts on RIMM the
other day for Jan effect
[12:39 pm] apple : got out of NTES a little
early
[12:39 pm] rusty : I bot INHX in the pennies
a couple of years ago aury effect….and sold
too soon of course
[12:39 pm] pandozzi : i got my stop set at
68.47 now
[12:39 pm] apple : more downside to VMW?
[12:39 pm] joeytsa : nice profit at worst
for you
[12:40 pm] rusty : some of the Jan effect
plays go up huge percent and some will not
move at all or even go down
[12:40 pm] weston : anyone shorting YHOO?
[12:40 pm] joeytsa : hence the basket
[12:40 pm] rusty : aye
[12:41 pm] apple : but then, maybe not
[12:42 pm] rusty :
http://www.siliconinvestor.com/subject.aspx?s
ubjectid=58474 Jan effect thread, one of
many
[12:42 pm] rusty : HGSI a good candidate
[12:44 pm] rusty : even BAC on the list
[12:45 pm] rusty : but I prefer cash rich
low debt companies for my basket
[12:45 pm] rusty : usually establishes a
floor in the price
[12:46 pm] joeytsa : good plan
[12:47 pm] joeytsa : CVLT making a dash
[12:47 pm] joeytsa : most likely too late to
make a trade though
[12:48 pm] rusty : VIX and related etf’s
collapsing
[12:48 pm] fxbo : I said FTNT was Bear trap
this morning, now $20
[12:49 pm] fxbo : Out my long of FTNT
[12:49 pm] apple : good job fxbo[12:49 pm]
joeytsa : nice trade fxbo[12:50 pm] willm :
Doji, look at CVLT. I am trying to apply your
tip as IDCC trade. Watching volume
[12:50 pm] derns : fxbo..good job on FTNT.
What do you mean by a bear trap?
[12:51 pm] apple : that confused me, too.
looks bullish
[12:51 pm] rusty : bears get excited that
its going lower after they put paw in trap
[12:51 pm] mhaus : TRIP falling like a
rock
[12:51 pm] fxbo : Bear trap: trap to kill
the bear (opposite to bull short)
[12:52 pm] apple : good eye, willim, but too
late in the day
[12:52 pm] derns : so you looked at it as a
short head fake? After dropping, it rebounded
with short covering?
[12:53 pm] rusty : SLAB radar
[12:53 pm] joeytsa : FTNT to me was more of
a stock than went from a clear downtrend to a
clear uptrend
[12:53 pm] rusty : never mind SLAB
[12:54 pm] joeytsa : it all depends on the
chart you look at i guess
[12:54 pm] apple : i have the 3 min up –
turned at about noonish[12:55 pm] joeytsa :
yeah apple, on the 8/21 it’s a tale of 2
trades 🙂
[12:55 pm] joeytsa : no matter how you see
it, or call it…good trade by fxbo !!!
[12:56 pm] willm : Doji I short CVLT on 3:53
pm but it still going up
[12:56 pm] fxbo : I have to thank someone
here for his call of sf short FTNT, but I
thought opposite so I I went long this
morning.
[12:57 pm] doji : Hey Will, I don’t remember
calling for a trade in CVLT
[12:57 pm] apple : agree joey
[12:57 pm] doji : How do you identify a bear
trap fxbo?
[12:58 pm] doji : just curious
[12:58 pm] fxbo : just opposite of “bull
short”
[12:58 pm] willm : Oh no Doji. I mean your
tip on IDCC trade to watch volume to confirm
the top. I applied it CVLT in paper trade
[12:59 pm] fxbo : FTNT was approaching
support on daily chart, and I also watched
other such as forex, bonds, for overall
market
[12:59 pm] rusty : YHOO hod[01:00 pm]
joeytsa : vix at 21.43
[01:00 pm] pandozzi : scalped 500 bucks yhoo
at close
[01:00 pm] apple : thx MK, K, B, E and
everyone. Had a fun day. all have a
wonderful evening.
[01:01 pm] doji : Will, CVLT was moving up
near to the close, that is not a good time to
go long/short,
[01:01 pm] fxbo : good luck
[01:02 pm] apple : doji, that’s exactly what
i said
[01:02 pm] doji : Well hope you can give
more details tomorrow fxbo[01:03 pm] willm :
Doji thank you I just trying to apply your
tip
[01:04 pm] doji : no will, I think I should
have been more specific, let’s continue the
learning tomorrow
[01:04 pm] willm : OK see you
[01:05 pm] willm : As X’mas approaching,
market will go as normal or what should we
aware in our trades?
[01:06 pm] joeytsa : volume probably will
dry up a bit
[01:10 pm] willm : Joey, our trades size
should be smaller or as usual?
[01:11 pm] joeytsa : if you stick to the
more liquid stocks it probably won’t
matter
[01:11 pm] joeytsa : i won’t be trading much
the next few days…
[01:12 pm] joeytsa : but if i do it will be
on the bigger names
