I’ve mentioned it a few times and we’ve already tried filming it once, but that fell apart–the camera guy never showed!–so this Saturday at 8AM we’re shooting a music video for my spoof on the classic video “You Gotta Fight For Your Right To Party” (which you can watch HERE) aimed at finance people/traders and anybody who detests the absurd industry regulations as much I do.
Basically, I need some extras to film something similar to the pie throwing scene at the end the of the video, but instead of pies, we’ll all be throwing around fake money down on Wall Street (if all goes according to plan). We’re all gonna meet down on Wall Street, if you’re game, contact me HERE and I’ll tell you all the particulars.
We’ve got a kick ass song, videographer, producer and a few others so hopefully we can top THIS pretty sweet trading music video.

yeah that song was pretty appropriate for the surge of daytraders that shit the bed after the dot com bust.
Tim Tim…This has to be the lamest freakin thing I’ve ever heard. Are you kidding me? A Wall Street parody of the Beastie Boys…you cannot be this clueless, can you? And you’re going to throw around money instead of pies…it’s genius, sheer comedic genius baby. This must be a cry for help. If I show up with a fist full of $100’s, will you promise not to film this abortion? Man, are you a goofball. So long suckers…
I enjoyed the video, very funny stuff. Wheres my tim dollar for this quality comment……ah, there it is. lol
I wish I lived a little closer, I would help out. Have fun!
nice video
(the bestie boys were jewish you know)
you know for 10-15k we could just bring the actual beastie boys
I banked $850 so far on apii, but still wondering why you decided to risk your balls on this earnings release Tim?
Why this one?
Timmy, I don’t get any tim bucks for showing you the video??
Deception, You should talk to tradethemarkets.com and get your cut from them (they posted the video originally) followed the lingk yesterday and they charge $3500 a day to sit side by side with their traders for a trading day. But wait, the next five calls get the pecial promotion of 2 days for $ 4000 !!!
You save $ 3000, Call Now !!! Our operators are standing by !!
you could get these guys too:

When are you all going to realize that Tim is more concerned about becoming a “celebrity” than he is with helping you make money. He sells snake oil and does low-budget Weird Al Yankovic parodies of classic songs. Let’s start referring to Tim as Weird Tim Sykes…the Weird Al wannabe!
my post just disappeared
wasnt tough to risk it on APII, pattern was there, also didnt know what time the earnings would be out, i could possibly gotten out before…worked well.
Cabeach bum, WTF r u talking about? i’ve gotten dozens of emails from TIMalert subscribers banking on APII, sorry u cancelled your subscription and didnt get in on it, i can understand how your bitter, get used to it, lots more calls to come!
WTF are you talking about? This is the first music video he’s trying to make. I’ve made 10 times my investment in 1 month of Tim alerts and I still have another week.
Weird Tim Sykes-
I’m not bitter. I made plenty of $$$ on APII on my own…even on your first pump and dump with it while most of your subscribers LOST $$$. The way to make $$$ on TimAlerts is not to be a sheep. Unfortunately most of your Timions were sheep with that first pump and dump and lost $$$ on it. Notice how many subscribers lost confidence in you and didn’t re-enter APII yesterday?
I’ll give you credit that I do think you’re mostly good at picking stocks. But, you’re also an immature douche bag, and I refuse to give handouts to douche bags. I also don’t believe in your pump and dump scheme. Although I didn’t lose any $$$ with it, it’s easy to see how I would if I stuck around with your TimAlerts subscription and chose to be a sheep.
By the way, are you going to continue screening messages posted to your blog that raise questions about your pump and dump? If you want to be completely transparent, let your readers decide what to believe. Don’t take the Chinese Communist approach and filter information.
Your turn now…
LOL, i have no time to debate someone whose profits rise and fall under the very alerts i provide and then questions the manner in which i provide em. i would rather u just said thank you and went on your way
Exactly how I thought you’d respond. Don’t address the issue because YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!
no u just cant handle the alerts…theres no pumping and dumping, i call em like i see em, if my subscribers dont fare well, they unsubscribe and become bitter twisted pricks like u. if they do, they continue and they give me testimonials to prove that bitter pricks like u are in the minority. who cares what i am, too many idiots in this game for me to be nice anymore, little bitches wanna cry, fine, go cry to mike et al, they’ll help u and eventually when u screw up and sue em, they’ll understand they shouldnt be nice to idiots either
A lot of people did jump on it because it was a lot riskier then previous picks knowing earnings were going to be announces soon.
The subscribers that settle and don’t try to better their tradings skills from the alerts are going to get burned. The ones that learn from them and get to the point they don’t need to use the alerts will prosper. If you feel your skills have evolved beyond using the alerts then congrats for you.
Anyone who isn’t aware of the risk of following someone elses trades like you say isn’t going to be able to or is unwilling to learn how to trade on their own in the first place. However, they’ll still probably be better off following his picks then their own.
Trying to understand more the patterns.
In these case of Apii for example today in intraday the 1 hour chartyou can see that around 140 k shares have changed hands in the last 4 hours in the 2.10 - 2.25 price range.
I think some may be shorts covering, but I am not sure if that is all. May it be just dumb hopeful thinkers betting on a rebound, or most probably people buying and selling to themselves in order to stabilize the price and dump there remaining shares?
Other question, is there any place where you can see the current short interest on a stock? Yahoo key statistics only gives the short ratio at july 10, 2008, which is absolutely irrelevant at this point.
Just reread my previous post and I didn’t answer the right question, basically, who the hell is buying this pos after that dump?
getshorty: try shortsqueeze.com, you might have to pay for real-time data though…
Honestly Tim, I was dreading the day you started a subscription based “black” service.. I knew it was coming, and even though I was sure you’re picks would be good, I knew I wouldn’t subscribe.. Now I feel like a second class citizen on the outside with a bunch of whiney bitches..
This may be the first bit of criticism I’ve given, so hopefully you at least give it some consideration. Most importantly I think that you need to decide if you’re a teacher, or a waiter (as in teaching a man to fish, or just bringing him the damn fish). I also think you need to slow down a bit on the rapid release of websites and projects, and finish what you’ve started (ie TIMBucks, LiveStock, etc),
I also see a problem with you’re recent $25k mark.. I think that most of your subscribers feel that not having the SEC day trading rule hanging over your head means you’re going to be trading more often. Seeing as your method is more about finding the perfect plays (and not just day trading), I doubt that will be the case. This is going to lead to more disappointment, and more whining..
Just and observation from someone that’s been hanging around here for a while, feel free to tell me to fuck off..
good post bob, i’ll still be focusing on the same perfect plays, just gonna be in and out a bit more often, not much, considering alerts every hour is just useless
Good website mikey, thks a lot, may end up subscribing at some point, but 20 mutes old short interest seems pretty useful to me as well.
APII at 1.80 now, tim, will you marry me?
I made 50k off the short call on this
I call BS Gonads. That means you had to have shorted 29K shares at a minimum. That’s too much for this illiquid of a stock. Get on Covestor.
BTW, thanks for that short site.
I just looked up LBAS and it trades on slim vol and it says over 170,000 shares short. Seems like way too much for such a low vol of shares traded. Any thoughts?
bestdeception,
if he put himself limit on the ask and patiently waited some fills it’s possible. A lot of trading was happening 3.49-3.50. Obviously, it needs to be before the alerts.
30k is only 30/400 = 7.5% of the volume yesterday so it’s possi ble. Highly unlikely cuz you dont want to get squeezed on a good earning report or the 3.50 breakout but for a guy with iron balls or someone right stupid/ignorant it’s possible.
Sounds like a squeeze candidate marc
total, that was 7.5% of total volume yesterday, but what % traded in the 3.49-3.50 range? I think it’d be hard pressed to get that many shares to borrow also. Haven’t seen gonads post anything on here before, so he’s a phony to me. Prove it gonads and join covestor. He hasn’t argued back, so I take that as he’s full of crap.
Marc,
I also am not sure of the data they provide. Yesterday I was looking at APII and it was always the same number… and it’s still the same today 25900.
Tim must know where to find that, he sometimes talks about short squeeze here and there. He would not talk about squeeze without the actual short interest numbers?
For once, it would actually be a decent question to ask on Livestock.
Anyone here have experience with SpeedTrader? Anyone?
Short interest is only updated twice a month. You can find all the dates and the actually #’s here.
http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/Tr.....rtInterest
Shorty that was my thoughts also.
Total, thanks .This being my first look at that site I didnt know that. I wonder if they just update it once a month for the non member.
Tim come on man were do we get that info?
Best - I think anyone with a handle of ‘Gonads’ has existing credibility issues. Incidentally, I just used ‘handle’ and ‘gonads’ in the same sentence.
new post:
http://www.timothysykes.com/ti.....on-option/
no theres no up to date short info anywhere, u just have o understand what a short squeeze is and watch the price action to confirm
bestdeception,
good points.
Also, you need a decent account to short that much. And if you assume on top of that that no one would go more than 20% of his account on a one shot deal. That adds up to an account of minimum 500k, lol. Yeah right.
hey Steve…use Zecco…no per share charge no matter how low the share price is and trust me, i go as low as possible. Its 4.50 a trade. What broker beats that???? I challenge anyone????
I’ve read too many bad customer reviews on Zecco. Plus, I’m looking for an additional broker that I can short with. Speedtrader looks like one of the few penny-stock shorting friendly brokers out there, along with TOS & IB. But I don’t have the $10K minimum for IB. And I’m already with TOS. I’m more looking to increase my # of day trades per week (I missed out on APII…I couldn’t re-enter because I was out of day-trades), and also be with another broker who may have borrows when TOS doesn’t have them.
well as a Zecco customer, I have always had good luck with them. I have never had any issues. Speedtrader has that same bullshit per share charge like all of them when you buy low priced stocks. Trust me, I did research on all of them, they all suck when you have low capital. The only thing you cant do with Zecco is short otcbb or pinksheets but you can still short nasdaq, nyse, and all others.
Whats it hurt by trying them out. By the way, I dont work for them, I just like paying 4.50 a trade and no other charges. Just my opinion.
On Speedtrader they have a PLAN A option where it’s a $9.95 flat fee rather than a per share charge. I don’t see any additional charges for low-priced stocks on there.
Also, what’s the availability of hard-to-borrow stocks on Zecco?
I’m not too concerned about commissions as long as they are decent. Yeah, $4.50 commission is better, but I’d rather pay a slightly higher commission to be able to short OTCBB’s and also have better availability of hard-to-borrow stocks. I also want a good platform to trade from. I like TOS’s platform. Speedtrader’s looks good from the screenshots but I need to investigate more.
Yngvai-
Doesn’t Zecco only allow you to trade stocks that are $3 or more? You may want to check into that.
What about IB? Have you checked into their commissions and trading platform? I’ve heard good things about it, but haven’t tried it for myself yet.
IB has a $10K minimum. My TOS account is near $6K so that won’t work. I’m looking to split my TOS account with another broker so that I can get more day trades.
Speedtrader is looking pretty attractive right now. Need to do more research first though.
