tim college tour The Timothy Sykes / A Sponsor To Be Named Later College Tour 2008/2009

After testing out my out my public speaking skills at University of Arizona, Rutgers University, University of Minnesota, Baruch College and Options University’s Online Trading Expo and receiving loud rounds of applause, more than one standing ovation and some great feedback (which you can see below), I’m ready to plan a national speaking tour! Students from the University of Maryland and University of Florida have already contacted me, but I wanna make one massive list right here so I can show sponsors and be all organized…somewhat.

So, if you’re a college student, frat brother, president of college/high school organization, basically whoever is part of some big community whose minds I can warp, leave a comment below so we can put this thing together, either gonna be in Fall 208 or Spring 2009!

Here’s just a sampling of the many testimonials:

“Attracting a diverse crowd of students from the University of Minnesota with varying levels of interest in Finance, Tim’s story kept everyone on the edge of their seats and asking for more. His casual demeanor, hysterical life experiences, and avant-garde trading style were both eye opening and entertaining. Overall, students left feeling inspired and motivated to learn more about finance as a hobby and potentially a career. Definitely a breath of fresh in the world of investing.”
-Dan Rice, President, University of Minnesota Investing Club

“Tim Sykes was hilarious and entertaining. He had a few educational points during his presentation, but it seemed as though whenever he was beginning to get a little serious his true personality would come out and he’d make a joke about someone, some company, a religion, an industry, himself or a mixture of all of the above. Although jokes, most of the time they were actually bitterly honest and truthful statements about the finance industry that I doubt no other speaker would ever dare to say. But with Tim, he put it all out there and didn’t care what people would think. This event was definitely the highlight of our club thus far and I would be glad to have him back up here again.”
-Justin Kruger, President, University of Buffalo Stock Club

“We enjoyed your presentation and your unique view about the hedge fund industry and the microcap stock-world.”
-Kim Chayka, President, University of Arizona Investments Club

“Just wanted to let you know the speech was great, it was certainly refreshing to hear a different perspective especially since we’re so used to hearing from corporate drones.”
-Ross Leder, University of Minnesota

“You bring a whole enthusiasm and honest knowledge to trading that I’ve never seen before!”
-Joe R. Rutgers University

    UF, huh? My old stomping grounds
  • Dan_O
    Looks good, do you have any offers to speak in the NYC metro area? I'd be all over that.

    TimQuestion: In your opinion are all those massively overpriced sell orders in level II quotes potential short sells?
  • I'll speak wherever, NYC would be fine too..what sell orders?

    Finished up $380 on the day, even as I was 15-20 cents off on an ideal short in VRML, another $200 to the poor timing TIM fund...still want under $3 tomorrow
  • UFgemini
    Tim

    You have to come to UF. Im in the Warrington College of Business and think that you would bring in a huge crowd.
    Please keep us updated.
  • Bob the VC
    Tim, are you going to put together a page with your upcoming appearance, once you get a few booked? Also, when you give these speeches, are they usually open only to students?
  • oh yah def...this wont be any basic tour, we're gonna do videocasts, after parties, open to everyone and their mothers, the works...just cuz we can :)
  • Dan_O
    I meant the ASK, I don't deserve a Timbuck for this post.
  • Dan-O
    If you look at the bottom of the ASK listing (in level II) there are sometimes a few hundred shares for 1,000 or 99,999

    I thought it was someone trying to take advantage of a market order or maybe a way the market makers lock in a range.

    It's something I've always been curious about.
  • Dionysios Kattis
    That's right, Tim. We wanna see ya here at the University of Maryland!!
  • Tony Ellis
    Tim,

    I'll try to get a gig for you at THe Else School of Management. If they don't kick me out first. Trading cuts into my study time just a bit...lol
  • moto250mx
    What an awesome idea...Hope you come to Chicago TIM...And if there is anything I could do to further your chances of getting here let me know?...So many uninformed individuals when it comes to stocks, finance, etc...These topics should be taught in our high schools.
  • Bob the VC
    Sweet- Hopefully you'll hit RI soon (preferably URI). God knows we've got enough colleges!
  • man i go to a shit community college, hopefully someone from university of michigan or msu contacts you. would love to hear your speech and meet you.
  • getshorty
    Issues logging in.

    Who can I contact for support?
  • Bob the VC
    Testing my gravatar, and getting a Timbuck to do it..
  • lmsmith
    I just signed up to open a TOS account- wanted to do it a while ago, but since I am now forced to because Scottrade decided to take away my margin for 90 days- for pattern day trading....(2nd warning)-- ohh well, at least now I will be able to short stocks under $5..... TIm you will get the referral
  • Jibri
    I still doing research and studying guys. Much props to you Tim . Market the hell out of yourself. Remember I'm the newbie in this game and I see the edge now. I'm still long, but stalking my first short. Just curious, have you ever had a job? I work during day so I'm limited. Everyone here should be on schedule for 6 figures or better.
    Try not to spend it all in one place guys. I've got plans for mine!
  • Eddie Z
    Hey UFGemini-

    Besides that, UF had a huge stack of Tim's infamous Trader Young Money magazines outside the classrooms, so make it happen!
  • ndfan19
    i sure hope the rewards for TimBucks will be good!
  • sonid
    Told someone about AIRN and looks like it was a good play as it is now down 19 cents after hours
  • sonid
    Like I said Traveling tomorrow but here is my stock to watch IMRX
  • YngvaiMalmsteve
    Sonid, IMRX and AIRN are earnings moves. Usually not a good idea to short those, although tempting based on the charts
  • sonid
    I know ...but AIRN missed, and looking at the horrific chart it doesn't look like anyone is looking to ride this pony up that mountain
  • PETEKUSH
    vrml more action i expect a mid moring dipp
  • jj
    hey TIM your tech guy rocks. that guy is not only quick at fixing glitches he's super fast at his follow ups. keep him around....good tech support is hard to find these days! also looking forward to your "tour". i think your doing the right thing to give back and teach us all a little piece of penny stocking reality.
  • Jono
    Tim, you definitely need to come to UCLA to speak. I'm part of a professional business fraternity here at UCLA and you've been a great inspiration to me, and it would be great if you came here to inspire others as well. I'm friends with you on facebook actually (name: Jonathan Bryant 'Jono' Lee) so if you are interested just message me or email me. Thanks!
  • Brewster
    how about a trip back down south to New Orleans -- A joint Tulane/Loyola presentation could be worked out I'm sure
  • Millionairemind
    EGLE up 12% today on earnings but it also made a double top, a good short candidate imo. Any opinion?
  • just bought the DVD, cant wait till it comes in
  • PETEKUSH
    second to the UCLA!! idea. come here get in on this KUSH stock craze out here.
  • codyhof
    Get up to western Canada!...or hell Canada at all...
  • Millionairemind
    Watch UTEK carefully tomorrow, if drops below $14 can be an easy $1 downside (perhaps to form handle of its cup). But then, if it crosses over say $15.10, it may see $1 upside.
  • PETEKUSH
    ca. pleaSE
  • MTXR
    Tim, Don't forget to SWEAR LIKE CRAZY...it might help your book sales this time around. :)
  • Millionairemind
    Tim, though I am not a business major and already graduated with a chemistry major, I would like you come to Texas A&M University, Aggies will love learn from you.

  • PETEKUSH
    we neeedd you,
  • jj
    Tim you should incorporate your live trading as part of your speaking. Hey, why not make work & learning part of your presentation? everyone would benefit to hear you drop a few F-bombs while the action is happening. by the way, what other schools are actually teaching what they preach? that's why your site is so important to the rest of us following your rise to $2M!!!!
  • Come to seton hall i guess
  • Grant
    i second the tulane/loyola, maybe we'll treat you to a slice of boot pizza afterwards
  • Oliver
    jj, i think trading while having those speeches isnt a good idea for tim. it would put him under plenty of pressure to trade and probably people will be disappointed if they happen to see the one loss that tim has once in a while rather than the constant profits.
  • jj
    all the more reason I think he should...look Oliver, losses are part of the bigger picture. Tim discusses being completely transparent. where else have you seen ANYONE, willing to show you openly & honestly what the rest of the industry is hiding? that's why I think it would make real world sense to show it like it is.
  • Paul_P
    Tim-

    I am writing from the west coast (Bay Area). Will you be making your way out to the west coast? If so, our school/business club is looking for a motivational speaker. Please let me know if this will be a possibility!

    Thanks!
  • i'll go wherever, just leave your school name and location and i'll add it to my list
  • Ryan S.
    Hey! Just starting the University of Denver Investment club, and we are looking for speakers in the Spring of '09. Send me an email! Love your stuff BTW Tim.
  • mattiefattie
    timmy id like you to come to my elementary school. I am 10 years old and love stocks and I want to bring you to show and tell.
  • Paul_P
    Diablo Valley College.
    Pleasant Hill, CA

    It would be GREAT to have you stop by!
  • noobtrader.08
    Timmer... Vancouver, BC.

    UBC (University of British Columbia), SFU (Simon Fraser University); they're both majors collegs in this beautiful city.

    Would be great to hear you speak and do a shot of te-kill-ya or a jager-bomb with ya at the after party.

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)!
