July Review: Up 16% For The Month, Now 89% Since TIM Inception 9 Months Ago

July was a damn good month in which I finished up 15.9%, or just under $3,500, to $23,485, just a bit under the critical $25,000 asset barrier. What’s more, website traffic (especially thanks to the new subscribers-only TIMalerts.com website), PennyStocking DVD sales, testimonials and most importantly, reader learning and earning all surged waaaay more than my pesky little 16%.

Comparisons to the major indexes–why bother? You all know these major indexes are getting crushed, that PennyStocking, even with my flawed timing, is crushing every single index/strategy known to man (seriously it’s fair to call this industry pathetic if I’m really gonna stay #1 on Covestor)(see rankings HERE) and that my already-healthy ego is larger for it. No point in detailing all that…at least not without devoting an entire post later this week!

See a table of my July trades, chart of website traffic and all my favorite posts from the month that was:

    Hi Tim

    Will this be a nice short some time? TGIC, 170% in just 2 days sounds a little bit cheap. not much volume but a nice long downtrend on the daily chart. what do you think?
  • no rene, its not my strategy, watch PennyStocking and learn:

    Rene,
    they report earnings after market close today and this is like rolling a dice, unless your an insider and you like the prospect of wearing an orange suit for 10-15 years.
    IMO, if the earnings are good and the gains are extending it might become a good short.
  • MARC
    I tried to reserve shares to short on TGIC and of course none available.

  • great month, only one down day. about 20% way through my 90 restriction, good time to keep learning
  • Rene_von_linne
    Thanks for the quick reply total_keops

    I was wondering if any body would care to explain some of the
  • younggunz
    What he is talking about is that those plays are based on actual events happening that commonly effect the price of the stock. Many of those events happen when the market is closed so by the time you find out whether it is good news or bad news the stock price will open the next day and already have adjusted for the news. So you can gamble and try and predict whether up coming news is going to be good or bad for the stock price but it is very high risk.

    What he is commonly looking for is volatility in a stock price without any good or bad news. What seems to be a common occurrence with companies that have really low stock prices is that they pay stock promoters to spread the word about their company in the form of spam emails and professional looking newsletters. People that are desperate for a big score buy into the hyped up spam and push the stock price artificially higher. Most often then not when that happens the company can't maintain the newly higher price once the spammers are finished and the price will crash.
  • total_keops
    ...
    Commodity play = ?
    It can be a real finding (gold, oil) and it therefore really add value to the company.
    Financial play = ?
    Hard to understand what's behind.

    Are there any more plays to watch out for?
    Merger/Buyout, trending stocks that the price grow slowly and constantly (ex:IDAE).

    This is only my opininon, some people may think differently.
  • Rene, all explained in my DVD
  • Rene_von_linne

  • Rene_von_linne

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)!
