Congress (Can anyone spot something “off” about this photo. Winner gets a set of steak knives.)
It’s classic warfare out there people, which is why the iBankCoin armies are on the offensive, sacking cities and burning citizenry to the ground. Instead of listening to obnoxious British people on CNBC, hear what I am about to tell you.
Back in the pre video game war era, strategists would trick opposing armies into making bad moves, through clever rouses. The best form of deception is to fake weakness, in an attempt to lure your over confident opponent into the proverbial “jam sandwich.” Well, that is what the market is doing to the bears. We get 3-4% dips and all of the bears come out of their filthy caves to promote negativity. Believe you me, there is no one as negative as me. I hate most things, save my family and good friends. But, I draw the line when it comes to making money. I love it.
My drive to be right and make money forces me to study harder and do more than the lazy guy in the boardroom, dialing for dollars. Many of you read iBankCoin just for the entertainment value, which is the primary reason why I blog—to entertain/have a little fun. But behind all of the whimsical commentary there is a message. Some of you get it. Some of you could care less. To be honest, it really makes no difference to me. However, if you are one of the weird people, who like to visit the Gods’ site just to heckle, understand something: “The Fly” aka Senor Tropicana aka Plutonium Petey aka HORATIO CLAWHAMMER aka Dr. Fly is watching you.
With a little help from iBC’s advanced IT department, I know who you are and can remotely activate your webcams, in order to see your stupid faces, from the luxury of my “medieval-esque” —neatly decorated— corner office. So you know, “The Fly” is watching you.
In lighter news, the market looks great. I did not buy or sell anything today, for I am intent on participating in the continuation of the current melt up.

i’m with fook. that’s really creepy… as is all of congress reading yesterday’s Fly blogs.
“here what I am about to tell you.” …FLY! (hear)
liar!!!!!!!!!
[slowly moves webcam into pants]
LOL. That was funny!
Wow now your looking at Man Tits……no wonder you wrote the new torah of investing…..
Fly your a Stock Star (God)
Horatio,
You and your PPT 2.20 rock. Portfolio was up around 6% today.
Cheers!
thnx homo
thnx homo…well I never thought i’d hear those words cum{sic} from your mouth
a play on words. had to say it.
The Fly has also tapped your phone and your wife….ALSO check out how hot the cop is…she’s like a solid 9.
Tomorrow new yearly high for the DOW, not kidding!
I have two webcams. One is external, USB, and one is built in. The external one is looking at the internal one. CAREFUL- this feedback loop will laser beam your platform!
What kind of operation are you running with two web cams?

NVTL earnings disappoint initially…you take action on that sucker the other day Fly?
EPS of .20…yet she’s down 16%
Time to get out the spectacles…
terrible guidance.
less than 1% of portfolio, so I can live with this. But disappointing. Like the technology.
i will use dip to start a position
What’s so great about the tech – my son connects his notebook to his cellphone and accomplishes the same type of connection less the added hardware and data charges … he’s paying $10/mo and this is $30/mo plus another $100 for the Mi-Fi.
Can your son hook up 5 pc’s to his cellphone at once?
Are you trying to tell me that that’s a feature of the Mi-Fi ………LOL
Besides, who carries 5 pc’s on a train, bus or car anyway …. ruff way to make $ day trading while in transit with a full compliment of video …. unless your’re a tent dweller
i like nvtl.

Privacy, what a quaint notion. Your government is not allowed to violate your rights by delving into your personal business; BUT they’re quite comfortable hiring other “contractors” who are not bound by such “limitations” to do that for them. And the pace is accelerating at the rate of Moore’s Law. Believe it.
Oh & of course it’s not just the gov. Everyone is doing the same thing – some (much) better than others.
You have no sense of humor, sir.
Whadaya mean? That was a fun fact.:-) see
Ah, the smiley face makes it better.
If you aren’t doing anything illegal, what do you have to worry about?
yeah. only criminals desire “freedoms”
And here’s the punishment for anyone desiring freedom.

The right to bear arms was not a last minute addition to protect quail hunters.
I agree, but it is so hard to separate them from the rest of their body. Especially with the big claws, huge teeth, and robust shoulder joints.
LOL wood!
Quick, enable Henrys webcam and you’ll see him frantically bidding up DVAX in afterhours.
I’m starting to move into the “Fly is God” camp.
Nice call on the reversal at 1020 a while back and again yesterday. Both times it felt like the world was ending. Very tough for us mortals to buy into that.
You need big balls to play this game, pussies don’t deserve to win.
“pre video game war era”- Are we talking Pong or something like Eight Ball Pinball with the Fonz and Pinky Tuscadero?

Yes, iBankCoin is on one of the computer screens.
Plus isn’t that Col. Sanders in a suit standing up.
Congress (Can anyone spot something “off” about this photo. Winner gets a set of steak knives.)
Do you mean besides your guy with the pipe in the background, fuzzied up to look realistic, the solitaire game, ibankcoin on several computers(note the ppt lopo on the one), msn.com on another or something else entirely?
nice win. knives coming your way.
DUCK!!!!!!
Thanks, I think I caught 3 of them with my chest
Lucky me
Also, I think I found Waldo.
And there is something unusual in the picture.
One of the Congress persons is actually working.
Only one monitor wasn’t on Ibankcoin.com – she was playing the casino where only the house wins, the rest were playing the “casino” where they can bet with the house through the PPT.
Also you were in the peanut gallery when you have your own blog section – put that in your pipe and smoke it
PPT is on another screen also – nice photoshop work.
Isn’t this actually a true picture of state congressman caught playing solitare and looking at fantasy football websites, while in this meeting? lol,…what a joke.
yep.
there are three photoshops in the above pic. identify them
The laptops screens: solitaire, IBankcoin and PPT.
You missed the Sherlock Holmes in the distance
I think the solitaire is legit, not photoshopped
solitaire is real
I see a midget with a sword coming thru the back door
and a bunch of bobbies or similar
Bobbies or boobies? Need to know before I waste time looking too closely.
I see a midget with a sword coming through the back door and he’s flipping off the crowd.
Hey! When did you add solitaire to the iBC/PPT platform?
Is that extra?
Should I ask the dude with the pipe in the distance?
Easy –
1 – ibankcoin on one laptop
2 – PPT sceen on another laptop
3 – your old boy Sir, with the pipe, in the picture in the back (to the left of
holla
That would be “BEAS.”
____
Hey FLY… let me guess… the guy with the microphone is you?
and the hybrid is almost legible in the PPT screen
Okay, I spotted everything that was “off.”
Now where are my steak knives?
I think you should stick with the bolt gun, though knives are certainly more compact and concealable.
My rib eyes always end up looking like on ocarina when I try cutting them with the bolt gun.
I hope this isn’t blasphemous, but I thought you’d want to know ….you constantly use “could care less” when you mean “couldn’t care less”.
Wrong again. I meant what I said when i said it
Which means when Fly tells us all to go fuck off, he actually means he cares about us…..eyes turning misty.
fifd
Check my blog….I’m calling this a classic “bull trap”!!!
Once again you were right fly you are a great trader.
I’m sitting on my head mooning the webcam, can you see me now?
Another try:

TA had his thrown, I’ll have mine the same.
The Droid buzz is massive, much more than the Pre.
People keep saying it’ll eat mostly into RIMM’s market share. They obviously don’t work in IT and understand why the BB is it for companies at least today anyways.
The Droid is clearly a consumer wow device and that’s AAPL’s target audience. I really hope it does well for no other reason than to give AAPL a well deserved punch in the face. That and I have a soft spot for Motorola from their indestructible phones long ago.
The App Store is a monster though, it’ll be tough to match let alone beat.
Don’t believe the inflated hype; the Droid is not a game changer.
They’ve done a good job turning the Apple marketing upside down and positioning the Droid as an industrial anti-iPhone (despite the iPhone being the clear inspiration for it). And the 2.0 OS is a nice piece of software, no doubt. But I don’t think any of that will really convince the iPod generation to switch over. The iPhone’s app support, Web2.0 slickness, iTunes integration, etc is nigh impossible to beat.
It will do better than the Pre, but that’s nothing to write home about.
The real winner out of this whole thing is Google with their Android OS 2.0 and open maps/Navi application (especially once that gets into the iPhone).
That’s not necessarily the point. Verizon is solidifying its business base (blackberry) and giving them options to keep them from switching over.
you were scared shitless yesterday. but you still put your balls on the table. congrats. now, don’t get too cocky
I see the Ibankcoin gentleman with the pipe smuggly sitting by the banister and yes the woman is playing spider but she’s made her bullish positions based on the PPT so she has only to pull in the cha ching.
“For the record, privately, I predicated a 200 point run today” Fly– from his Shamwow post at 12:42 today. The Dow went up $199.89 today
and the eleven cents? warped into time as his space machine left York last night in time to get back to NY most likely, or paid to Jake for his help on the battlefield? well, it’s his business
Let me tell you, eleven cents was worth a hell of a lot more in the 13th century.
Think of the compounding!

lol
I have no idea what historic savings account interest rates may be, but $0.11 @ 2% over 800 years comes out to just under 1 million dollars.
Not too shabby.
At 3%, we’re looking at over 2 billion increasingly worthless pieces of toilet paper.
Think if you were smart enought to stipulate interest payment in silver… or gold.

Yes he did, that’s true. However technically it didn’t hit 200 points for the close so I would have to call it that he was wrong 🙂
I see dead people.
Seriously.
Like eight of ’em…
first laptop on the right? – looks to me like a senator is using the PPT….
This is looking more and more like a stock mania and you know what that means. Here is the Fly’s latest time machine. http://www.caparo-t1.com
nice Xenophobe! quite an upgrade from the one he had to borrow last week when his top of the line one was being repaired—

Congrats on your winning gambles.
The top was Oct. 21, and not just in equities. Let’s see what your mystery oscillator has to say about it going forward.
The top was Oct. 21, and not just in equities. Let’s see what your mystery oscillator has to say about it going forward.
Oh I get it. Your oscillator was right about the top on the 21st, but you still want to see how Fly’s oscillator goes.
That’s the famous “looking back one week so you can’t profit off it” oscillator.
Lot’s of those out there… too bad they can’t compete with your standard, garden-variety time machine.

He’s using the x+10 forward trailing price oscillator. It’s a direct descendant of the illudium explosive space modulator.
Fly, I love the Caesar quote.
BTW have you been providing the funding for this guy’s research up here in Connecticut?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Mallett
today looks to be a boring day.
anyone reading anything interesting?
I’m reading “Kilo Class” – Patrick Robinson
Yea Artist:
I’m reading “Money of the Mind” by James Grant. Without a doubt he’s quite possibly the best economist/financial commentator in the US and perhaps the world.
The book was written in the early 90’s and is an incredibly good monetary/credit history of the united states from the civil war to Milken going to jail.
What gets me is just how many monetary scrapes the US has had. Not so surprisingly was the most stable period in the nations history was from the 1880’s to 1914 when the full on gold standard was in operation around the developed world. Shocking that hey?
“Titan” – the bio of John D. Rockefeller.
Liking SMH for buying scalps on dips towards 24.73-75 as TXN,INTC is strong RSI.
The one negative are the equipment makers.
KLAC is holding back AMAT which makes up a chunk of SMH.
Hi TraderCaddy,
What do you think of TSRA?
No opinion.
What do you think?
I know somebody’s going to fault me for saying this, but I heard mention of TSRA on the much ridiculed CNBC yesterday, and out of curiousity looked it up this morning and saw the – 17.8% drop. Maybe a little overdone.
The question is: Did the Fly “privately” call this drop? LOL
Jed, is waiting on line to see “This is it”
That is a good one.
Hi mrkcbill, I see you back there near the end of the line.
Solitare is how I invest when I am +9% I go all in
Choose your weapon!
What is everyone’s guess for the afternoon?
Will it turn around at noon and end higher into the close?
Or will the market continue to drift lower to close out the month on a weak note?
Pick one.
Crash.
Erase all of yesterday’s gains, and close lower than Thursday’s close.
NYSE down, and not providing market data.
Something serious is going on. Be very cautious.
Unbelievable movement………………
what the hell is going on ?
Want my take?
Tin foil hat on: High frequency algos are jumping in front of legimitate sell orders, accelerating the decline. NYSE can’t handle the volume of data.
Tin foil hat off.
thanks
no doubt Fly will have some insight as to why, later
currency crisis? bowtie’s been expecting one
Look at the yen!
NYSE available again.
Shed,
Who will break the news as to what was going on? if anyone
Zerohedge is the only folks I see that are covering it.
Beginning of Great Egregious Halloween Massacre.
Closing out some longs. Hedged with short SPY at 104.86
FLY is awfully quite today…
