Uh Oh, Guess Who’s Now Exhibiting The Perfect Technical Breakdown Pattern?

Memba 4 days ago when I featured Fannie Mae (NYSE: FNM) and Freddie Mac (NYSE: FRE) as perfect technical breakdowns/a Short Selling pattern I looooooove?

Well, since then those two turds have dropped 16% and 33%, respectively.

Forget all the BS media noise, rumors, tips, fundamentals, screwed employees, just all the shitty things/petty human waste products that are a part of every day Wall Street and focus on the charts. Can you guess which financial company is showing the EXACT same pattern?

Yup, good ole Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (LEH)! Good God, I love the smell of failure in the morning!

Disclosure: I have no positions in any of these “companies”, I just enjoy justice being served.

I know you don't like to play real companies but why didn't you go for either of those two. It was almost a given that they were going to breakdown?

timothysykes

LOL, now FNM and FRE are down 50% each

younggunz

Man, not too many people up early on here, think its only Tim, Mike, and I.

timothysykes

i didnt go for either cuz its not pennystocking...gotta stay disciplined, especially with so many people watching....what i can offer is to to tell people what not to do, guys on the TIMalert website were buying these thing yesterday, it old em they were crazy as they could both collapse:

"just checking in, i dont see any other plays other than FNM and FRE and they surely arent pennystocking

Can't remember who, but thanks UF for the thoughts on AKYI. I agree with your volume/liquidity/trend concerns for a $0.02 penny stock. Nonetheless, volume has really trended upward the past month or so and many are expecting it to explode in the near-term with news of revenue data. The company has moved from development stage to confirmed sales with an ingenious product in a popular market (video gaming). Moreover, company hasn't been wasting $ on mailers, but rather is using extra funds to acquire treasury stock. Application in process with the SEC to move from the pinks to OTC BB. I've made some $ following ideas on this site, just wanted to alert y'all to something that I think has merit, albeit still speculative (I'm not fooling myself). Check out the chart below. Increasing I-hub chatter and now consistently on the daily top-10 list of # trades or transaction volume.

investorslive

FRE woW!!!!!

Max

Just because there was an earnings report out doesn't mean it was an earnings play, especially when all you care about is the momentum.

Up premarket, down on open to silly levels (-50% at one point?), obvious price inefficiencies - what more can you ask for?

LOL max: "Just because there was an earnings report out doesn

"FRE, and FNM not penny stocking" true TIM--- sure would have got you through 25k easily--- look at the chart,

timothysykes

i could also put all 21k on red and possible double to 42k...no, i stay disciplined, got too many people looking at this now to let everyone down

PCola

Hey Tim, I appreciate the discipline. I've always been a gambler, but when I've felt really good about a play I've told a few friends. Very rarely do those that I tell otehr people about lose me (or them) any money. I always joke with them that I wish one of them would be my "gatekeeper", and only allow me to trade in my account those stocks taht I am comfortabel telling friends/family to get into. Essentially, signing up for Covestor does that for me, as now that others can see my trades, I am going to remain much more disciplined. I was thinking of buy FRE at the open, and would have made a bunch of money, but it would have been pure luck, not from knowing anything special, and so it would have been a hollow victory.

Amz

Anyone watching CNBC today regarding LEH.

I think it went something on the lines of "prosecute the manipulators, rumor starters, and short sellers."

"Short Sellers tend to fall on their own knife" or something like that lol. Love it.

Amz out.

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)!
