Hey Tim,
Is CRXL a good short play from these heights?

timsykes

crxl maybe, but i dont like the gradualness of its move and true resistance doesnt come in til 20

t-digg

short PSTI as of yesterday afternoon, this thing is going to drop to around 3.30-3.40 range, I am doubting my entry point due to the fact that I think this thing is going to spike early morning, made money on this thing yesterday and missed out on a little profit so foolishly entered and it jumped .10 on me going into the close. Should have waited, but this thing could tank first, lets hope no SPIKE.

timsykes

agree on PSTI, got my 1000 shares reserved to short sometime today

timsykes

except of course that i do want a spike (sorry)

t-digg

That is what I should be waiting for, stupid move yesterday, but I will add to my position if this thing spikes.

Taylor

Tim,
with titn would wait for a spike to around 22 and look to short once you saw some weakness

Evan

Got shares of PSTI reserved at TOS- looks like it's spiking a bit- Tim, does TOS have a place where I can see the orders about to come through, like Level II? I should know already, but I'm still using TDAmeritrade and haven't gotten to explore TOS in-depth yet

Ruth

Tim, Evan,
How to reserve shares to short? Do you have to call or you can do it online? Can it be done only at TOS or any other broker allow to reserve shares to short? Thanks for your info.

Evan

upper left hand side of your downloaded desktop software has a button called support/chat- chat with anyone about reserving shares. You'll find some are more helpful than others.

Andre

TITN is it to break up or down, can't tell. How would you trade this one?

B

why does tdamderitrade suck so much and not allow a short on PSTI??

timsykes

short 1000 PSTI at 5, big block sells coming in taking out the 14k buy block at $5, very very nice

Evan

Tim - u suck. I don't want to hear anymore about your timing being bad- I had an order in with my 1000 shares at 5.05- missed it by FIVE SSEEECCCOONDS!!! Enjoy the $200 plus in about Five seconds! CCRRAAAPPP!!!

timsykes

timing isnt bad on this one, there was a clear big buy order at 5 to short into, u should never have entered it at 5.05...and this isnt $200, right now i'm up $350 so far, but i want $500+ on this thing

Tom J

PSTI is up from Monday

t-digg

That PSTI spike had me on the edge TTIM, lets see this thing break through the 4.30 mark and 4.00 here we come. TIM you are right they are predictable

Keith E

Is CRY looking to breakout to th upside at 10.26?

timsykes

LOL Tom 50 day moving avergae on PSTI, i just look at them like see saws, too much time up, time to go down....and no shares of NCEN so PSTI is my only play!

tdigg--of course they're predictable, why do u think i get so angry when people try to say this is all in my head...the power of the internet, i'm gonna make sure every single damn person int he world knows about this game

timsykes

out at $4.65, too many meetings today to watch this thing, might reshort in the afternoon

Evan

Tim, my CRXL was also a good call, but was focused on my 5.05 PSTI short- my question for you is this- do you condone heavy drinking before 10:30am?

Joseph

Take your profits, Tim.

Joseph

Nice! Is it me or do you always use "meetings" as an excuse to get out quick lol. Nice play, Tim!

timsykes

haha nah meetings are real, publishing is my main biz and just wait til u see some of the projects i'm workin on....no problem with taking 7% profits within 30 minutes...trade was very scalable, coulda been done with 5-10x the size and 20-50x the size if u're willing to have patience.

Keith E

Is the breakout on cry going to be real or a fakeout?

Joseph

Nah I'm just messing with you, man. I can't wait for the updated website. Thanks for helping us learning this game.
I appreciate it.

lmsmith

>>> NICE

A

Wow TIM. If you didn't have such a quick trigger finger, you could have made over $600 in less than an hour. 1000 shares *(5.00-4.38)=$620. Not too bad for an hours work! LOL!

Joe

UFPT jumped up like you predicted Tim

Dan-O

Anyone watching the post earnings breakdown on LAYN??

Keith E

Looks like it might be a fakeout on CRY because of no volume. Would possiply look to short into this breakout or wait and see?

monkiman

NCEN, TITN, PSTI did well today.... damn but I had all my money shorting GU... I have some kind of love affair with GU

Mr Cellular

So Tim, if you buy your dvds do you learn where you find these stocks and a consistent basis? And.. How often do you have a problem getting shares to short? Love your blog. Good job.

neswick

COT is down today, would it be a good short if it finally breaks past the 3.20s?

lmsmith

The game came be played two ways as well.... picked up 1k shares at 4.40 --- will sell soon.

Jeff C

How is everyone conifgured on TOS to view level 2 access, ie blocks of shares. My old broker was self-explanatory. If it's in the forums I can't locate it.

GSC

Just FYI-with regards to AMTD, you can short sell it if they have the shares available to lend out.
In this case they don't have anything available.
You should always keep 2-3 accounts open, AMTD,IBR,TOS is a pretty good combo to cover your bases if you are looking to short sell.
CHeck out WM, one of the most obvious short trades out there.
It might take some time for it to come down to the position it should be at, but eventually it will get there.

samd

Would you agree Penny Stocks are not weighed down or propped up so much by market benchmarks like the DOW?

Andrew

I'm all for shorting cott below 3.2-3.25. It's shown really solid strength at that level so if it cracks, could be a pretty big move. Anyone in NCEN?

Max

'Would you agree Penny Stocks are not weighed down or propped up so much by market benchmarks like the DOW?'

I'd have to say that's the biggest reason I've been focusing on these types of stocks lately; they are rarely significantly correlated with the market as a whole.

However, the patterns that Tim looks for can morph somewhat depending on overall market conditions. I believe this is something he discusses in his DVD.

Keith E

I have noticed that when th overall markets are weak and not much action then there tends to be more action and manipulation in the shit stocks and presents more opportunity for us little guys.

lmsmith

psti- looks like it going down futher..... Out this

samd

I think even in a Bull market shorting on spikes with these type of stocks on BULLSHIP news (I like that TIm word) is just as effective.

timsykes

mr cellular, yes, the DVD package teaches you how to think about these stocks and all the variables involved, its not just about entries and exits cuz the patterns evolve, gotta understand what causes these patterns

UFPT, yeah but its a weird breakout and i gotta conserve my day trades

COt will be good ONLY when it breaks $3.25, so far can't even take out $3.30

lmsmith--yes u can go long these suckers on dips too, works well with short sellers who refuse to take quick profits

some penny stock are influenced by the overall market more than others...good news is most of them arent

PSTI turned out to be a good cover, gotta watch out for these thin stocks...sure i coulda waited 10 minutes and made an extra $150, but hindsight is easy...if i'd waited til the buyers came in above support, i'd now be down $100 from my exit...key is waiting for big blocks to get taken out...that would mean$4.30 and that wont be easy...today at least

ViciousChicken

Take a look at GBRC, up 25% plus on some news story done on French television... Sure to fall from the sky...

BenBien

You're going to short everything.

Who Is Timothy Sykes And Why Should I Care?

See Tim's full bio HERE. Tim turned a few thousand dollars into a few million by taking small gains time after time on hundreds of volatile penny stocks, discovering that his trading strategy, while consistently successful, works best for those with smaller accounts.

Determined to teach others this PennyStocking trading strategy (learn more HERE), he went back to his original $12,415 roots (already $58,000+ even though the stock market has crashed) to show everyone how to turn thousands into millions, even while having a life (somewhat) and making plenty of mistakes. Currently he is the #1 ranked trader out of 25,000+ on Covestor)

How Can I Consistently Make Money In The Stock Market?

Hard work, Determination and Know How.

Hard work to learn how the greatly misunderstood niche of penny stocks provides opportunities every now and then on which you should pounce.

Determination to seek those probable profits out and know how in order to actually profit from them.

Long story short, wait for stocks that are extremely volatile - for whatever reason - and then aim to take small profits (between 10 and 50% within a few hours, days or weeks) here and there, either from betting on higher or lower prices (yes, you can make $ betting on lower prices, it's called Shortstocking (learn more HERE).

Why Penny Stocks?

As Tim explains in several ALL-NEW instructional DVDs (see them HERE) and in over 2000+ blog posts, penny stocks are the most hyped and corrupt niche in the entire investment world. These two qualities make them the easiest to profit from (legally) because the vast majority of people who play penny stocks are suckers and all-around ignorant people. If you have any intelligence whatsoever, you have a clear advantage and it's like playing basketball against mental midgets.

Where Do You Find Stocks To Trade?

This is the #1 FAQ (see more HERE) and it is answered in THIS instructional DVD.

Of course, that's just a brief introduction - to receive a full education, there is Tim's book An American Hedge Fund which is the story of his remarkable rise and lessons learned.

To truly increase your odds at profit, Tim has designed an entire set of detailed instructional DVDs, covering all the variables that amount to over 24 hours of instruction (see them all HERE)!
