[07:20 am] joeytsa : silver needs the
economy to turn around
[07:21 am] Kris : oil numbers in 10
minutes
[07:21 am] rusty : silver didn’t need the
economy at the high
[07:21 am] rusty : just momentum
[07:21 am] lightning : odd silver thing:
SLV is -3.62%, but AGQ is -7.19%. AGQ is 3x,
SLV is 1x
[07:21 am] joeytsa : that should be good
kris[07:22 am] joeytsa : i wonder if Iran

[07:27 am] joeytsa : saw it too late, and
for once i didn’t chase 🙂
[07:28 am] skydiver : good job joey
[07:28 am] skydiver : on not chasing 🙂
[07:28 am] joeytsa : i will chase if i feel
the move has more to go b4 the fade
[07:29 am] tonyliu : Kris, what about GMCR

[07:29 am] michael : ok. you just seem to
always get a good part of the current move
[07:29 am] skydiver : Covered 1/2 S DTG
70.53 – 70.31
[07:30 am] joeytsa : i look at the volume
both ways
[07:31 am] joeytsa : if i don’t see that big
candle/high vol spike, i expect more of the
current move…esp on a news play/rumor
[07:31 am] joeytsa : sometimes it doesn’t
work…i take my lumps and move on
[07:32 am] joeytsa : HGIC was a nice
long..had the candle/vol, indis turn
[07:32 am] michael : some of these have been
tough lately, the 1, 2 minute time frames
haven’t really been parabolic
[07:33 am] lightning : RIG in a battle here
between 38.41 and 38.43.
[07:33 am] skydiver : all out of S DTG
[07:33 am] joeytsa : that’s why i spot
play..look for something specific or move
on…still need to work a lot on my
patience…
[07:33 am] joeytsa : lack of patience made
me miss NBL…too busy moving from chart to
chart
[07:34 am] michael : I hear ya. it’s so
much easier reading the charts from right to
left after you see what happened
[07:35 am] skydiver : Looks like I jumped
out of DTG too soon – I lost patience with
this one
[07:35 am] joeytsa : lightning: got that
crosshair thing figured out 🙂 so much
better on my eyes
[07:36 am] apple : every little bit helps
joey. are your charts still black?
[07:36 am] joeytsa : yes, black
background
[07:36 am] lightning : is that supposed to
be easier on your eyes?
[07:36 am] apple : you didn’t like the white
for esignal – easier on the eyes
[07:37 am] apple : yes
[07:37 am] lightning : out 1/3 RIG
[07:37 am] joeytsa : not sure, just used to
black i guess
[07:38 am] apple : try the white, you’ll
see
[07:38 am] joeytsa : i like how the color
pops out on black
[07:39 am] scalpman : Out 1/2 RIG S @
38.68
[07:39 am] lightning : OK, scalpie, let’s
get RIG down below 38.
[07:39 am] joeytsa : BIDU still looking
ok
[07:40 am] Brent : I prefer the black too
Joey, especially with multiple monitors. The
white made me feel like I died or something,
lol[07:40 am] joeytsa : haha[07:43 am] rusty
: The S&P 500 erased its gains for the
year on Wednesday as Wall Street reversed
some of its recent year-end rally, with many
investors expressing concern about the
outlook for early 2012
[07:43 am] rusty : what a difference a day
makes
[07:44 am] joeytsa : yeah rusty, january
should be interesting
[07:44 am] apple : i think we have all
erased our gains from a previous day…
[07:44 am] joeytsa : would love to know what
% of sales was put on credit cards..and what
% they expect to be paid
[07:45 am] joeytsa : 4 weeks ago, we were
being told it was a record black friday[07:45
am] shailan : Kris, are you still GMCR short
?
[07:46 am] rusty : just like we’re told that
every IPO is oversold and great
[07:46 am] apple : don’t believe everything
they tell you
[07:46 am] joeytsa : apple: i actually do
think sales were better…but profit weren’t
due to low prices
[07:47 am] joeytsa : retailers are scared
right now
[07:47 am] joeytsa : huge discounts this
week
[07:52 am] skydiver : Come on down SINA
[07:54 am] skydiver : all out of SINA
[07:54 am] rusty : Cramer
http://seekingalpha.com/article/316217-jim-cr
amer-s-long-term-holdings-show-disappointing-
returns?source=from_friend
[07:55 am] skydiver : S SINA 54.12 covered
53.81
[07:55 am] rusty : the 16 stocks that have
been in his portfolio consistently during the
past 6 months lost 17% and underperformed the
S&P 500 index by 9 percentage points.
These stocks also lost 12.4% since the
beginning of 2011, underperforming the SPY by
10 percentage points. We don’t think it is
very likely that Cramer beat the market in
2011. This is probably the reason why we
don’t see his 2011 returns advertised
anywhere.
[08:01 am] skydiver : Well, had a tougher
day, but ended up in the green – got to take
off — have a great day of trading
everyone

[08:47 am] joeytsa : keep it going
scalp..nice hit rate
[08:47 am] scalpman : thanks joey….two
losses were managed with appropriate
stops….gains in the range of 1-2%
[08:48 am] joeytsa : nice work
[08:49 am] joeytsa : i’m mainly in watch
mode this week..unless a gimme pops up
[08:49 am] apple : good for you, i am laying
low as well
[08:50 am] scalpman : TNA L moving
[08:52 am] joeytsa : VMW with an up move
[08:55 am] Kris : DMND rumor staying

at one time…
[10:47 am] rusty : selling 1/2 of SQNS by
the eod[10:48 am] rusty : if not sooner
[10:50 am] mscholder : Apple, do you have an
HDMI input jack in your TV?
[10:51 am] victor51 : Hi everyone. I am here
for just few minutes. Starting tomorrow, will
spend more time and learn from the experts
and get ready for 2012
[10:52 am] lightning : hey victor. hope you
are having a great holiday time. I’m looking
forward to 2012 being the best so far
[10:54 am] victor51 : How was your last week
? Did i miss anything big??
[10:55 am] Brent : no Victor, it’s been slow
during the holidays
[10:58 am] apple : mscholder – don’t know.
it was hooked up to be a monitor at one time
and i just don’t know how to do it.
unfortunately, i cannot ask the person who
hooked it up.
[11:01 am] michael : apple, was it hooked up
to a desktop or laptop?
[11:02 am] apple : thx michael, the desktop,
along with the 3 monitors
[11:04 am] michael : you probably have an
hdmi port at the back of the desktop and
monitor. they should say hdmi by them
[11:09 am] michael : if not connected by
cable, then I would think it must have been
wireless, like an apple tv system or
something like that
[11:11 am] apple : yes. now what i need to
do is to put the tv in a mode that connects
to the computer…
[11:13 am] michael : just run through the
selections on the input button
[11:14 am] michael : should be able to do it
either on the remote or actual tv. button
should say input or format maybe
[11:19 am] michael : with the tv on it
should cycle through each input with each
button push, or you could see which port your
apple tv or other system is plugged into and
select that one
[11:20 am] apple : thanks so much michael
[11:22 am] apple : yes, i love you
michael!!! yes. that was it. eureka!
[11:22 am] michael : I’m totally tech
challenged, I’ll chalk that one up to the
blind squirrel
[11:23 am] apple : no, it was the exact
thing to do… the tv remote, not the direct
tv one.
[11:26 am] mikewd2 -: how’s the trading going
today?
[11:26 am] mikewd2 -: been out most of the

[11:32 am] michael : 2 minute chart for me.
10:42 to 11:22
[11:33 am] joeytsa : nice…i might make the
switch to minute charts
[11:35 am] michael : I use to try tick but
the moves were so quick it just made me
anxious with the quick moves in oil.
[11:37 am] joeytsa : yeah, the ticks can fly
by
[11:38 am] joeytsa : i adjust them during
the day at times
[11:40 am] derns : hello all..I am just

increment, sometimes 20cents etc[12:23 pm]
apple : ENOC finally turning over
[12:49 pm] rusty : RAM hod…common day
