    GOOG shatters 513...

    If GOOG breaks 518.32 the odds are 62/20 it will be a low first day and given the relatively heavy put OI at 520 it should close above 520 (but who the fack knows - not me). Quite frankly as someone who trades GOOG intraday I really don't care what it does in the sense of which way it goes just...

    GOOG shatters 513...

    Dear Krazy, I'm crestfallen, having read your report. What ever happened to "do no evil"? Ripping one's associates a new one seems majorly evil. Can it really be so? lj

    GOOG shatters 513...

    Good sign. 515.00 pierced in the preM (preM high = 515.87). The source for the data presented so far in this post and the post immediately prior to this post, is the new, improved (??) INET. Please see the attached, clean Word doc for even more excitement. lj

    GOOG shatters 513...

    So tell me boyez, where does the mighty GOOG close for the day? Following this post, I will check the preM as I've done every day since June 24, 2005 and see where my guess (GOOG should close above 520) is. Last PM, the 20:00 close was 509.50 up from the low of 502.38 but down from the postM...

    Google Misses!!!!

    Check the OI configurations for July and August, in place long before today's "surprise". Coincidence or not, I don't know but certainly not uninteresting. lj

    Technical Analysis Doesn't Work

    (1) When a poster speaks of price action would it be possible for said poster to define what they mean? Are they talking about numbers, pictures (charts) or both numbers and pictures? Similarly, are they talking about tics or the complete assemblage of raw market data. I would suggest that...

    Do Trendlines work?

    Not semantics at all, tradersavy. In fact without a clarification of this point the discussion becomes jumbled. Which is to say, one must have some sort of strategy in mind when price approaches the line which one has drawn as being representaive of "the trend". If we might stay in...

    The RTH Opening Price

    We are on the same wavelength with this stuff, speculatus. Let me check out ACTIV Financial. FWIW the data feeds for eSignal and DTNIQFeed are exactly the same BUT incomplete when compared to a NASDAQ/INET T&S which although it only gives NASDAQ-associated tics, clearly shows that trades are...

    The RTH Opening Price

    Hey RL, Thanks for your input. I am aware of the eSignal protocols but the problem is that the "incorrect price" thing is too slow and as well, the "incorrect open tic" isn't a bad tic just a useless one for the purposes I've described above. The bar editor modifies only one bar and not the...

    The RTH Opening Price

    Muchas gracias speculatus. Now let us push on. Do you know if, for an NYSE-listed (or AMEX-listed) stock, that very first print is the Official Opening Price (OOP)for that stock for that day? In other words when you look at the daily OHLC for that NYSE-listed stock, is the O of the first...

    The RTH Opening Price

    If regular trading hours (RTH) for US equities begin at 9:30:00 ET, then the Open price of the first 4 bar tic (or OHLC stick) for RTH MUST occur after 9:30:00? True or not true? FWIW, I believe that this statement has to be true. No price prior to 9:30:00 should be present in that first...

    GOOG mini-spike

    SPY tried but failed -today. Another bad tick? 06/08/07 14:52:02 150.50 150.49 150.50 400 06/08/07 14:52:02 150.50 150.49 150.50 100 06/08/07 14:52:05 150.50 150.49 150.50 100 06/08/07 14:52:05 150.50 150.49 150.50 100 06/08/07 14:52:05 149.30 150.49 150.50 860000 06/08/07 14:52:05...

    GOOG shatters 513...

    Check it out boys. This tells you what to expect from the GOOGs till the end of next week barring any major fat tail events. It's why the boys that run the show set the intraday H/L where they did, e.g., @ 519.64 and 509.46. lj Incidentally, in the premarket, they tried to protect...

    GOOG mini-spike

    I tried to close the thread but was not successful. So some more thin gruel mixed with spittle. Not GOOG but an interesting variation on intraday spikes - the 11:06 2 minute bar for DIA spikes down (outside down bar) from 132.75 open to 131.75 low with big V (398.7K) and with no counterpart...

    At least it's a gradual selloff

    Right on. Check the NYSE Trin today vs yesterday. It barely budged. The party isn't over yet but the indices will make a lower low - maybe tomorrow. lj

    GOOG mini-spike

    I have seen this phenomenon many, many times and very frequently (but not always) price comes to the spike point in a relatively short period of time - sometimes intraday, sometimes the next day. There was a mambo spike down this AM on SPY to around 143, so it will be interesting to see if...

    How insane is this?

    My guess is that in the AM, the fast $ boys will quickly take out today's high and then who knows. The fact that MGM traded countertrend today suggests that if the "general market" decides to go up tomorrow it will follow. The last few days appear to have been an accumulation, with downside...

    How insane is this?

    re: 5/25 higher H post A higher H today and another should come shortly. Justin Mamis once said (maybe even more than once) that today's technicals are frequently tomorrow's fundamentals. lj

    GOOG mini-spike

    Thank you for your thoughts. If NASDAQ (or the ECN) breaks the erroneous trade would one expect that at some point (I really don't know when) the trade would be "removed" from the T&S print? Is it at all possible that someone could buy the sell print and then wait till later to sell it or...

    GOOG mini-spike

    Your response is certainly what CW would attribute this spike to. Is the "bad tick" designation because there was just a single price point and no further immediate activity at 509.70? As of 1:30 ET, the bar remains (my raw data vendor, DTNIQ, usually clears bad ticks). For amusement...
