Phish, "Strange Design"

Virtual Office, $702. Dow, +165.77, 12,307.35.

Tokyo, $507 on 3515 shares traded.
OBAT, $228 on 7400 shares traded.
Me, $201 on 1600 shares traded.
Denarii, -$234 on 8200 shares traded.

Well, I had a day much like yesterday. I traded for a little while and then went outside to continue my War on Ticks. They don't know what they're up against. I walk into the woods, remove leaves and sticks and find 4 or 5 on me. I then remove them and give them a nice DT Alcohol Spa Treatment which kills them in seconds.

Anyway, the VO has had a nice uneventful but profitable week. Sure it's a little dull, but everyone is stacking slowly, which is nice. As for my real office, I was #11 of 23 traders. The office range was -$4964 to $5261 (gross).

Volume wasn't abysmal for a summer Friday as we clocked in at over 1.2 billion shares. And we got a nice little rally, which is good for creating bear flags in a bear market.

Have a great weekend. Enjoy the solid weather.

HOLY SHIT, TIM RUSSERT DIED!

Timmay!, Live!

Clearly, if you stand up in front of a live chat for 8 hours, you have some balls. Say what you want about Timmay, but the man is dedicated. I'll be going on soon to harass his ass.

Here's a link to the show.

NOTE: By clicking on the quotation marks, you automatically enter the chat room. Please enter and ask Timmay! to "pinch his nipple" as I did and tell him DT sent you. So many of you have strong feelings about Mr. Sykes. Now, you can get him to pinch his nipple for you... do it, it will take some of the hate away.

UPDATE: I have taken the show down to prepare for the VO. The only thing that would have made it better is if he pumped this site more... still, well done, Timmay.
