(11:15 AM) arujunaa: tcb: we're in limbo right now. i am watching 119.875/120.125 on tym9. for TLT/TBT players, watch 122.00 on usm9. building value below there projects 117.00! but i wouldn't sell for that move right now. i would wait for a bounce to sell if you are bearish.
(11:16 AM) arujunaa: the short end of the yield curve trades like a champion which tells me that this sell-off is a supply concession (which could last a few more days) rather than any fundamental shift in views on the economy. having said that, technicals are the new fundamentals when it comes to bonds.....
(11:25 AM) tcb66: Thanks Aruj ....always appreciate your insights
(11:26 AM) JR Roden: This run look so tired, but it just keeps presssng forward. The Q's moved back to the 13 EMA on the 5 min chart twice today and bounced.

(2:47 PM) desertone: Yes?
(2:47 PM) azags: The trading gods spoke to me and told me the short term trend is down. I don't know if that is today, tomorrow, and or Monday but it is down and I have made some dollars today being short . I also sold a portion of my gm 50000 shares today at 1.95 bought at 1.88. I still have a lot of Pontiacs left
(2:48 PM) desertone: Bravo azags excellent trade!
(2:49 PM) berniectx: you have done well Zags keep it up!
(2:49 PM) pupster: love the way Zags trades
(2:49 PM) azags: I sold some more qid at 37.05 hoping to buy it cheaper today
(2:49 PM) desertone: Someone in here Bot calls and Sold Puts on GM I wonder how he did
(2:49 PM) pupster: you need a couple of mil to make it work for ya
(2:55 PM) azags: Thomas make the market do up so I can reload on my qid at a lower price
(2:56 PM) redliontrader: Thomas - I missed your article on 3x etfs. I had concluded that shorting them for holds was ok, is that not the case?
(2:58 PM) thomas_Poland: it showed that long and short ETF's were down together !
(2:59 PM) thomas_Poland: as those 3xETFs have bearish bias
(2:59 PM) thomas_Poland: you have to read it
(2:59 PM) redliontrader: yes, but like I just took a short on TNA, if I hold overnight that is good form me
(2:59 PM) thomas_Poland: is TNA bear fund ?
(2:59 PM) thomas_Poland: sorry I don't trade them so I am not sure
(2:59 PM) redliontrader: 3x bull
(2:59 PM) thomas_Poland: so no
(3:00 PM) thomas_Poland: oh .. short TNA .. sorry
(3:00 PM) thomas_Poland:
(3:00 PM) thomas_Poland: so why not long bear fund?
(3:01 PM) redliontrader: in case I want to hold overnight
(3:03 PM) Nick_H_SanDiego: Thomas, what is the link?
(3:03 PM) thomas_Poland: Tom sent it
(3:04 PM) azags: I also bought at the close yesterday rytpx which is 2x the inverse of the S&P so I have to hold it for 1+ day since I often pull the trigger too fast on an etf when I have a profit
(3:05 PM) Nick_H_SanDiego: thx tp
(3:06 PM) berniectx: pretty quick downdraft
(3:06 PM) eman11: For the FAZ watchers JPM just hit a new LOD, the rest of the financials could follow.
(3:07 PM) azags: The market was ordained to go down.
(3:07 PM) redliontrader: zags I like that strategy - I thought there is a holding period for MFunds.. can you trade in and out like that on a day to day basis?
(3:07 PM) azags: My faz is still underwater having bought it at 8.25
(3:08 PM) JR Roden: The Q's went up to touch the downtrend line from this moring and rolled over again at a high of about $34..46
(3:09 PM) azags: Yes I can trade a Rydex dynamic fund the same day but I can do it online. I have to talk to a representative
(3:10 PM) azags: I can't do it online, a Rydex fund the same day but with a rep
(3:12 PM) Nick_H_SanDiego: zags i remember you said you do that on purpose to enforce discipline on yourself so you don't get out too fast
(3:12 PM) Nick_H_SanDiego: rydex can be traded twice per day, right?
(3:12 PM) azags: yes
(3:12 PM) Nick_H_SanDiego: great enforcement idea!
(3:14 PM) azags: yes twice per day. I would have made a lot more on rytpx if I would have bought it at this morning's fix rather than at the close yesterday
(3:16 PM) azags: Where is Tom?
(3:17 PM) ajayvee: his tooth must be stuck!
(3:19 PM) JR Roden: To much laughing gas from the dentist
(3:21 PM) thomas_Poland: or the dentist is hot!
(3:21 PM) redliontrader: So we think 845ish from here? Was that the plan Tom left us with?
(3:21 PM) thomas_Poland:
(3:21 PM) redliontrader: 5% from 888
(3:24 PM) Nick_H_SanDiego: so 845 ish
(3:25 PM) thomas_Poland: we will go below 814 Spx
(3:28 PM) redliontrader: TP - do you think quickly from here? 814 when? I would think some violent swings before we go there
(3:29 PM) desertone: But not today TP ....
(3:29 PM) desertone: That would be cataclysmic
(3:30 PM) thomas_Poland: not today
(3:30 PM) thomas_Poland:
(3:30 PM) thomas_Poland: first or second week of may
(3:30 PM) desertone: That's doable !
(3:31 PM) ajayvee: first week of May starts tomorrow
(3:31 PM) eman11: I got knocked off - What Tom said before was look for a close below 875.56 that is key level. (if I'm incorrect please correct me)
(3:31 PM) thomas_Poland: and please can you see 3:20 bar?
(3:31 PM) pupster: yeah...i think he said 876ish
(3:32 PM) thomas_Poland: I just have to explain myself
(3:32 PM) thomas_Poland: when I say a time like 3:20 I 'know" something will happen
(3:32 PM) thomas_Poland: often it is bottom or top
(3:32 PM) thomas_Poland: at the time I said 3:20 I though it will be top
(3:32 PM) thomas_Poland: but for me time is more important than price
(3:32 PM) thomas_Poland: so 3:20 a bottom
(3:33 PM) thomas_Poland: period .
(3:41 PM) azags: just sold some more qid at 37.25
(3:41 PM) redliontrader: so TP what is the next time that something might happen?
(3:47 PM) thomas_Poland: close
(3:47 PM) thomas_Poland:
(3:48 PM) redliontrader: good call.. you are good
(3:48 PM) PremR: i predict 8:30 tomorrow morning
(3:48 PM) ajayvee: are we holding shorts overnite?
(3:48 PM) thomas_Poland: yes market will open
(3:48 PM) PremR: that and we have non farm payroll numbers
(3:48 PM) PremR: eastern time
(3:48 PM) thomas_Poland: yes .. just kidding
(3:48 PM) thomas_Poland:
(3:49 PM) thomas_Poland: it will open at 9:30
(3:49 PM) thomas_Poland: we have good chance of going up in globex ?
(3:49 PM) DE_TTT: Depends where you are, TP
(3:51 PM) thomas_Poland: tomorrow can be a repeat of Monday
(3:51 PM) thomas_Poland: so do not trust morning rally
(3:51 PM) thomas_Poland:
(3:51 PM) thomas_Poland: I won't be here tomorrow
(3:51 PM) thomas_Poland: so don't give a s...
(3:51 PM) thomas_Poland:

(3:53 PM) PremR: i stand corrected....it is next friday
(3:53 PM) ajayvee: tom was basing his outlook on a bad employment number tomorrow
(3:54 PM) arujunaa: usually it is. but not when it is the 1st of the month

(3:59 PM) Fulkdaddy: Just below 875...871
(3:59 PM) Pete45: FAZ back up to 8.33
(4:01 PM) eman11: We closed below the 875.56 that Tom mentioned - Good Sign for the bears
(4:01 PM) azags: this is scary with faz. I was underwater all day with my cost being 8.25
(4:01 PM) Pete45: Azags -did you sell FAZ or are you holding?
(4:02 PM) azags: holding faz
(4:02 PM) Pete45: k thanks
(4:02 PM) redliontrader: good sell off at the end, so we settled around 872 which means a downside target of 845 according to TOM's 5% from the top (888) rule
(4:04 PM) netherbow: nite everyone - thxs for posts
(4:05 PM) desertone: Good Nite from this end also Enjoy your evening !!
