James-PDT Moderator: yep......the whole question is, "Is it a bubble and if it is, will it burst?"
bearrally greenie said it is
johnboy or rather, who cares if it's a bubble, the mantra to live by is "if it swells, ride it"
Carson-PDT Moderator: True
bearrally i think it is when my mechanic was showing how to invest in real estate

James-PDT Moderator: yeah......can't really tell in all his movies.....but if you ever saw Lethal Weapon 4, he looked pretty small compared to Mel Gibson and Danny Glover
johnboy does martial law mean you shoot looters on sight? or is martial law just a means to temporarily suspend civil liberties?
James-PDT Moderator: civil liberties suspended, curfew.......but shooting looters on sight would not be tolerated i think
johnboy I wasg
James-PDT Moderator: but man.......have you seen the news footage of all the looting? disaster bring out the animal in people
johnboy I didn't think so, I mean, maybe in Texas that would fly, but I am surpised that people behave that poorly---sad commentary on society
James-PDT Moderator: Market new HOD

johnboy mob mentality, I suppose

renram22 Carson, I have been executing through the Cyberexchange in Cybertrader and sometimes, I end up at 0.5% gain when i could have got 1%
renram22 I have not tried ARCA and will do so now
Carson-PDT Moderator: What is that?
Carson-PDT Moderator: Executions are important
Carson-PDT Moderator: and it will get better with time
Carson-PDT Moderator: I love unloading positions as it is going nicely in my faovr
Carson-PDT Moderator: favor
Carson-PDT Moderator: I have hot keys setup to throw a sell order out there on the offer
Carson-PDT Moderator: at the touch of a key
Carson-PDT Moderator: if there is nice momentum going in my favor, I will sell out on the offer, and get executed in no time
Carson-PDT Moderator: There are a couple reasons why I sell out on strong moves in my favor
Carson-PDT Moderator: 1, it is easy to get out
Carson-PDT Moderator: 2. If there is quick trading action and a surge after a steady trend, often times it could signal that its getting close to an end
Carson-PDT Moderator: I would stick around to find out
Carson-PDT Moderator: Ill get out when the going is good and forget about it
Carson-PDT Moderator: I never cry about leaving a party too soon
renram22 tks
Carson-PDT Moderator: As long as I had a good time that is all that matters
hank yes, thanks carson, and I totally agree about never looking back when there has been a profit. Sometimes I actually remove the stock from my watchlist entirely so I am not tempted to jump back in if I see a big surge
Carson-PDT Moderator: yup
James-PDT Moderator: Anything of note out there? Commentary? Stocks?

jy Hope this won't come true:
jy SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) --
At the retail level, the average price for regular unleaded stood at an all time high of $2.619 a gallon Wednesday, according to AAA's Daily Fuel Gauge Report. That's a full 40.8% above the $1.860 of a year ago. See the data.
And unleaded gasoline for September delivery climbed as high as $2.80 a gallon, a level that market has never reached before. See Futures Movers.
"This is shaping up to be a 1970s-style energy price shock," said Kilduff, in a note to clients.
And "$4 gasoline will likely be visited upon consumers in many areas," he said
James-PDT Moderator: 4 bucks.........
James-PDT Moderator: insane.........but the way things are going .........i would not be surprised already
Johnny Question for James or Carson: What is 'selling at the offer' and 'buying at the bid'? I always thought it was the other way around (buy at offer, sell at bid).
jy I think it may not be $4 but it'll be higher than now.
Carson-PDT Moderator: You may execute in one of two ways
Carson-PDT Moderator: you may be agressive and buy a stock from whoever is selling stock. That is buying at the offer
Carson-PDT Moderator: or you may take a more passive approach
Hunter : natural gas is doing the same thing, my share of a little well in oklahoma was 640.oo last month, this month 1145.00, and they tell me its going to get better/worse depending on your outlook !
Carson-PDT Moderator: put your buy order on the bid, hoping that someone sells the shares to you
Carson-PDT Moderator: by doing the latter you are saving yourself the spread. Spread being the difference between the bid and ask
Johnny So is this a good strategy to use all the time, or only if the stock has a lot of volume/liquidity?
Carson-PDT Moderator: If you have the stock moving in your favor, and you want to exit, it will make sense to place your order out there on the offer to sell out
James-PDT Moderator: neat hunter......owning a share of a well......
Carson-PDT Moderator: its like putting yourself in front of a moving car
Carson-PDT Moderator: You will get hit
James-PDT Moderator: my grandpa used to own a single oil well.......
James-PDT Moderator: lmao now that i think about it........
James-PDT Moderator: but i remember people in texas would put a single little pump in their yard......suddenly that looks like a good idea
Hunter : where was it ? and did it go dry
James-PDT Moderator: it as in texas.......no, he just sold it......didnt really make money
James-PDT Moderator: was
Hunter : there are single wells in the williston basin that pump over 1500 barrels a day, imagine that !
James-PDT Moderator: i dont know the numbers on those things, like how many gallons it has to pump a day, and who the heck do you sell it to? I mean what do you do? Hey chevron, my pump produced a barrel this week can you pick it up?
James-PDT Moderator: 1500? wow, see i have no clue on the numbers.......i was thinking like 1 barrel a day for those private ones people have int heir yard
Johnny Carson - how about when trying to get into a long position? What conditions do you think will make buy at the bid successful?
kdecker has logged out
Sean has entered DayTrading Chat
James-PDT Moderator: hey sean
Sean hiya
Hunter : they have collecting tanks around smaller fields with gauges on the wells they collect quarterly and pay you then off the gauge
James-PDT Moderator: ah i see hunter
James-PDT Moderator: but man.......that would be cool, you know? have an oil well in your backyard.........heck even if you produced 20 barrels a months you are talking an extra 3500 on a job where you dont do anything......
James-PDT Moderator: no wait, that is only 1400.....still cool
James-PDT Moderator: [img id=em-0]
Hunter : had a gas well in one of my back yards paid pretty well also ran a gas line into my house so no heating bills, it however went the way of a divorce ! golly darn it ! ! lol

James-PDT Moderator: how much did the gas well make a month? was the equipment/ upkeep high?
Hunter : just about got nasty with that suck word decided againest it ! lmao
Hunter : I got between $800 -1200 a month all maintenence was on them
James-PDT Moderator: that is pretty neat......
Hunter : actually losing it was worth it James, and it was neat for a while

James-PDT Moderator: wow, jb........your taxes are higher on average than the US too right?
jy swingtrade or type A. ? just crazy stuff.
johnboy yep, but what can you do
James-PDT Moderator: maybe a st jy
James-PDT Moderator: why are the taxes high? i understand the free medical care aspect.....but you don't waste 40% of your gnp on defense......or a couple billion this year on bridges connected 2 towns in alaska with one town with 35 people
jy CAT is up 2.4% on rebuilding equipment needs.
James-PDT Moderator: One analyst yesterday had a good point on Lowe's and Home Depot......they have only 2% of their stores in those areas.......
James-PDT Moderator: affect could be minimal
johnboy why are canadian taxes high? good question, we like to blame the french because it is expensive to make everything billingual and we are a rural nation so everything is spread around and Canada is bigger than the U.S. bet the same amount of people as in California so a small tax base........I guess/
James-PDT Moderator: ah very good point.....infrastructure....especially roads and rail for a country that big with the same amount of pople as Cali........
johnboy I feel bad for all the dogs and cats that died or were abandoned during the floods.......I haven't heard much about animals on CNN/CNBC

James-PDT Moderator: [b]UPDATE: Moving stop on[/b] [b]MEDI 29.63[/b]
johnboy sorry about your bsm ally, if it's any consolation, with my new DAS system, I can paper trade all day with a training account, and yesterday I couldn't decide if I should go long @3.60 on BSM, so I did in my training account.........I feel your pain, but whatever, I met my goal for today, so that's all I can ask for
ally also sick about VLO..made a little on it mon-tues when it was still in the low 90's...and looked at it today hitting 108
ally lol johnboy
James-PDT Moderator: ally......if you are like everyone else......no amount of profit will ever be enough
ally lol
johnboy hehe, great minds think alike and fools never differ, I too had a VLO faux ps (today)
ally :)
James-PDT Moderator: everyone loves profit though......so keep that in mind ally

johnboy faux pas (brainfart)

johnboy although I have worked with enough french speakers that you can't help but pick up the language
ally our french teacher quit, they didn't replace her, so i had to switch to spanish for 2yrs...talk about confusing
James-PDT Moderator: I actually took French for 4 years in high school......

James-PDT Moderator: Questions, comments, commentary appreciated............
James-PDT Moderator: Market very nice rebound..........take a look at daily charts however...........
James-PDT Moderator: We are right at the 50 day ema.........let's see how this affects any more rallies........oftentimes you will see a slight break above it for a few periods followed by failure and continued trend, in this case down.........
James-PDT Moderator: The market, imo, will need a decisive break of the 50 ema followed by several more up days to break this downtrend........
James-PDT Moderator: Don't predict however.........just observe.......
James-PDT Moderator: Heck.......predict, write it on paper and see how it plays it in the next couple of weeks........

Carson-PDT Moderator: wow
James-PDT Moderator: good job though......you caught some of it right?
Carson-PDT Moderator: what a move
ally that's like 125% in 2 days
James-PDT Moderator: Anyone recall that one stock a few months ago? 500% in ONE day? that was the most incredible thing i ever saw
ally i thought i was pushing my luck even buying it this morning, so i didn't buy much...in at 4.95 out at 5.70
James-PDT Moderator: good profit though............last time i checked that is about 16%
ally so what is the definition of chasing? lol
James-PDT Moderator: no idea.......but personally i hate jumping on stocks that have already made a move
ally yeah it's great...i am still getting better with picking my own...but still a little hesitant to put much $$ in it til the market picks up
ally that's what i was thinking this morning james...who knew it had so much move in it?
James-PDT Moderator: yep.....and when runners reverse......it can give it up in heartbeat
ally that's why i bailed quick at 5.70
James-PDT Moderator: ally keep it up....sometimes trades are made just from experience or "feel"......look at bearrally.....he tends to have good feel......however.........
James-PDT Moderator: note, even he will tell you he gets killed on overtrading and not stopping himself out.......
James-PDT Moderator: seems like you are getting a good "feel" for personal trades......that is an intangible skill.......just make sure you don't make needless trades just for the heck of it........and know when to cry "uncle"
ally bear busting up a few computers...lol
James-PDT Moderator: the market is stronger than anyone.......a stock will go whereever it wants to go.....no amount of begging or praying will bring a losing stock back to life if it doesn't want to.........so if you enter a trade and have a sotp in mind, and it gets stopped, get out........all part of the plan.
ally yeah...i am making these small trades instead of paper trading i guess...i think i get a better feel for it
ally enter with stop in mind is a good rule
James-PDT Moderator: yep......NEVER enter a trade if you can't identify a stop.....an area that you can handle and that you feel if a stock breaks that level means your trade is no longer valid.......
James-PDT Moderator: otherwise, you are just trading with no plan
ally i am much better than i was a couple months ago...but still do some dumb things every once in a while
