Missed a great afternoon of trading, damn that sux! Ahh the price paid for video immortality

Lessons Of A Publisher/Video Blogger/Trader (In That Order)

Looks like I should’ve scheduled my video interview for after hours because I got back after the market close to find myself down 40 cents/share on CNEX—which practically guarantees a higher opening tomorrow (even if the bid is pretty much where I shorted), I missed on NNVC’s perfect afternoon 25 cent/share fade (any of you guys get in on that?), which shoulda woulda coulda been a solid profit on my 2,000 shares (reserved earlier).

And just to rub it in, I missed out on PDO squeezing the stubborn shorts (who obviously haven’t watched PennyStocking or else they’d be out looooong ago, as I was) into the market close (I saw the morning spike above previous high of $9, but I don’t like buying, let alone buying morning spikes), which coulda woulda shoulda been bought for a probable gap-up/possible big-time morning spike tomorrow.

Education of a Speculator - Forge the fact that Victor has blown up twice now, he’s still worth a few million and he’s had some great runs. Perhaps he should just stop using leverage! Yah right, like that’ll ever happen—the best thing this book will do is to teach you to think differently.

The Disciplined Trader - Wish I’d read this earlier in my career, but alas, somehow it didn’t make the cut for far too long. Don’t make that same mistake, read this and learn from the grand daddy of trading psychology books.

Bernard M Baruch - God, I love stories of truly successful financial speculators—Baruch was one of the best. And even though this book doesn’t go into specific details of his strategies, it’s a great overview of the lifestyle and thinking of a successful trader.

Pit Bull - Another hugely successful trader, this book is much more in your face than Baruch’s and is one of the few recent financial releases worth spending time on.

12 hot stocks to watch today, guess which one is my fav!

12 Hot Stocks For Manipulation Monday, Wish It Was Supernova Sunday

Posted by timothysykes on Mon 12th of May, 2008 08:16:19 AM

PSTI
Everybody and their mother is contacting me about this pump and dump to short…now that I have some capital/trades available to me this week, I might short it, but it is down $2 in 6 days and there’s really only $1 of downside left

XRM
March’s big drop was due to its debtload, now a solid earnings report has brought it back up…not a pump and dump, I’ll avoid it…for now

SSBX
It’s a friggin Bancorp! That just reeks of boredom…barely up, let e know when it go up ore than 50%, or changes its name and gets into cancer research of wind energy

APWR
Speaking of breaking wind, this guy just broke out for a second time in a few months, seems ike forever since THIS post (why I’m anti-investing), although it was about as gradual as my descent into madness, aka not all. I trust this company about as much as I enjoy pissing into a wind blower, but I respect this breakout enough not to short it…yet

VRML
Watch, it’s gonna tank below $2.50 today just to piss me off. Beautiful thing about PennyStocking
is that despite my passengers-watching-an-Arab-on-an-airplane-like patience, the longer you hold these ideal plays, usually the better. I’m fine with my 20% profit though…

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 $27,000 even though the stock market is down 20%!) to show everyone how to turn thousands into millions, even while having a life (somewhat) and making plenty of mistakes.

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 900+ 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 blog post.

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)!
