My Latest AOL Finance Article: True Religion Apparel, Inc. (TRLG)

I’m a short seller so I’m lookin’ and lookin’ for stuff to short and other than KYUS, which had no shares available…anywhere…today at least, all I seem to find lately are perfect breakout plays of real companies! Charts like Third Wave Technologies, Inc. (TWTI), which I mentioned in this morning’s post, and now True Religion Apparel, Inc. (TRLG), which I just detailed in THIS AOL Finance post.

While neither are right for PennyStocking or any short term trading for me, they both have a lot going for them and probly wouldn’t make such bad investments. (Uhhhh I can’t believe I just used the word “investents”. I feel dirty. Blehhhh.) But seriously TWTI is a pure play for testing HPV, an STD that’s infected 20 million Americans and 6 million new ones each year. Good business to be in, even if their losses are substantial…especially if it can truly confirm this breakout by cracking its 2001 $11 IPO price…

And TRLG well, read that AOL article, this could be a fakeout–as the stock has been known to spike then retreat–but the variables are aligned for a substantial short squeeze…

Who knows, this ain’t my game, I have the dark gift–everything I write about turns to sh#@–but maybe just maybe, considering these stocks are breaking out in a pretty tough market environment, they have the willpower to push forward. Time will tell, coudln’t hurt–too much–to tell you guys about ‘em.

    Nice call on it though Gabe. I saw it progressing towards this drop this afternoon, just bouncing on that 5.45 mark.
  • FPP nice afternoon breakdown
  • JeffMoates
    Covered early at 5.01 for a .50 gain on the day.

  • Webster
    Thinking about reshorting FPP on this bounce
  • eb
    Jeff....congrats on your success!
  • Tdrag
    Anyone looking at PEIX
  • Bob (VC)
    What's with the FPP bounce? a late afternoon fakeout?
  • congrats webster and jmoates, much easier on me when the students become the masters :)
  • Webster
    Okay back in I reshorted 1000 shares of FPP at 5.27
  • Nodin
    Webster: how the hell did you find FPP shares to short right now? what are you using?
  • Webster
    Learned a trick. In the morning at 8:00am est I put in multiple orders at a higher price than what I will buy for. That way I have 2 or 3 open order throughout the day that I can pull the trigger on and just lower my buy price. So I am still sitting on some FPP open orders right now.
  • JeffMoates
    TDA has plenty of FPP shares to short, re-shorted 4700 at 5.22ish. Webster, you thinking about holding overnight?
  • Fantom
    VVUS is still riding the news wave. It'll dip again.
  • Nodin
    IB sucks....I've been trying to short for an hour and nothing....and its only a tiny...300 shares order...crap...are you guys holding overnight??
  • VVUS to $5? too funny dude, u might get $6.50 or even ^, other than that have fun holding, risking further squeezes for weeks/months
  • Wow I missed this post... and trlg broke out nice today, I'll keep on watching them. This fad will fall hard.

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)!
