In a comment posted HERE about TIMalerts affecting the patterns we stalk, Yngvai said:

You say someone should anticipate it all, but the subscriber base changes the variables that you teach.

The “afternoon fade” is exactly that. A fade, not a tank. Yes, they occasionally do turn into tanks, but the TIMalerts certainly increases the probability of that, particularly with a low float stock. Before TIMAlerts, I saw many examples of afternoon fades. Most (not all) were slow and predictable, and timing of entry didn’t need to be perfect. But the subscriber base changes all of that because subscribers will jump in at the same time. TIMalerts suddenly make perfect entries more critical, which doesn’t sound too good coming from a guy who admits to being horrible with his timing.

Maybe it’s about time you guys read my disclaimer that stresses ALL my stuff is for entertainment purposes only and this is definitely not financial advice:

Rather, you should use the Information only as a starting point for doing additional independent research in order to allow you to form your own opinion regarding investments. You should always check with your licensed financial advisor and tax advisor to determine the suitability of any investment.

Checking with my lawyers right now so this might have to be altered to protect me from little whiny bitches and I might have to give up trading entirely just to send out alerts, but I’ll do what I must…

More importantly, TIMalerts is not wholly responsible for anything–besides overestimating the wealth/unity of TIMalert subscribers, Yngvai forgets I’ve been selling a 6 hour instructional PennyStocking DVD package (check it out HERE) for 9 months now and since it’s not BS, my strategy actually works, it was inevitable that with my detailed trading success day in and day out and relentless blogging/emailing/teaching that some people would catch on so they don’t even need TIMalerts, they’ve learned to profit from penny stock volatility on their own!

Lazy and incompetent people there will always be, but never forget that there’s always someone out there who wants it more than you and that person is not lazy, that person, whoever he or she is or they are is working day and night to learn this game and not have to rely on some loudmouth prick like me.

Those of you with the DVD already know, but I close by saying “you can do better than me”. Once you know what to look for, these patterns are easy to spot. Once you learn how to research them, he variables are easy to understand.

I truly believe you can do better than me, all of you just need to learn to adapt to changing market conditions and patterns. That’s what this game is all about.

PS Both Veraz Networks, Inc. (VRAZ) and U.S. Shipping Partners L.P. (USS) from my morning watchlist as potential shorts tanked 15-20% inside of an hour (different hours) yesterday–no TIMalert was sent out as I was too busy with too much publishing crap and watching APII–that’s just how the patterns are these days and how they most likely will be, especially when stop losses get taken out.

PPS Can’t believe I had to do this post, I thought all the bitches were on sites like EliteTrader, guess trading just brings out the worst in everyone.

CABeachBum

Tim-
I feel insulted that you only cited Yngvai's response and none of mine in this blog. How about making your next blog addressing the points that Yngvai brought up? The larger your subscriber base, the more you're going to manipulate a stock's chart and burn your sheep who are too slow to hop in and out when you do.

Read my last response about your new business model. It's pay for performance:
http://www.timothysykes.com/timsykes/2008/08/14...

Reaper

Technically, Tim, what you give is financial advice. It is just not PERSONALIZED financial advice. It is therefore protected by the 1st amendment and exempt from securities laws. Blame Lowe v. SEC (1984) for the tortured definition of advice as not advice.

http://supreme.justia.com/us/472/181/

timothysykes

no reaper, this is ALL for entertainment purposes only..but for example APII dropped from 3.4- to 3.20ish after my short alert went out....the bitches were whining about 20 cents...now down 45% 1-2 days later...same pattern as USS/MKTY/most of my successful shorts, the volatility of these stocks more than makes up for any slippage

Reaper

Tim, it is an important distinction. Just because you say it is "for entertainment purposes" does not make it so. What your DVD is, for example, is advice. It is not personalized. That is the distinction that matters (and yes, I have a high-priced securities lawyer too, though St. Louis lawyers are cheaper than New York ones).

While you may understand that the "for entertainment purposes" is simply legal jargon that helps deflect lawsuits, the N00bs who inhabit pennystocking don't get it. That is why some have complained that you are illegally giving financial advice because what you say sometimes sounds like advice. It is advice, but it is general advice, which is why it is protected.

From Lowe vs. SEC:

"These various formulations recast the statutory language without capturing the central thrust of the legislative history, and without even mentioning the apparent intent of Congress to keep the Act free of constitutional infirmities. [Footnote 53] The Act was designed to apply to those persons engaged in the investment-advisory profession -- those who provide personalized advice attuned to a client's concerns, whether by written or verbal communication. [Footnote 54] The mere fact that a publication contains advice and comment about specific securities does not give it the personalized character that identifies a professional investment adviser. Thus, petitioners' publications do not fit within the central purpose of the Act, because they do not offer individualized advice attuned to any specific portfolio or to any client's particular needs. On the contrary, they circulate for sale to the public at large in a free, open market -- a public forum in which typically anyone may express his views."

Reaper

I should also point out that CAbeachbum's "pay for performance" model is possibly illegal. It also makes his pay dependent upon the level of idiocy of his clients. IANAL, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

timothysykes

all entertainment buddy, no advice whatsoever

Cletus

For the idiots with $1500 to trade and a shitty broker like scottrade that takes 10 minutes to execute, you will get killed regardless of Timmma hand feeds you his picks. Not only do you have to know whats going on but you gotta have the right kind of computer, a backup means of executing trades, have a plan in place, and have your finger on the trigger any time you are in the market. Without this you will lose over the long term for sure.

Webdursigner

THANK YOU TIM. Keep ragging on these whiny bitches because they'll be the one or two betting the farm, losing it all, then blaming you for their dumbassness...thereby ruining it for everyone. I hope you're still able to keep trading. Its good for ENTERTAINMENT ONLY you dumb idiots

YngvaiMalmsteve

I'm starting to wonder who the whiny bitches are here. There's a lot of PMSing overreaction going on. I never thought one comment I made would turn into a fiasco with lawyers and everything else.

All I suggested was that TIMAlerts could have the potential to affect the price action more than some here think, and that it could affect strategies and variables. That's it. I never said TimAlerts was bad, nor was I complaining that TimAlerts even existed. Some of you waayyyyy overreacted to it.

A few guys like A agreed with me. A few other guys like CABeachBum took it too far IMO, claiming Tim was pumping & dumping (which I don't agree with).

It's that simple. Take it for what it is. Don't make it into something more.

THE FREAKING WEATHER CAN AFFECT PRICE ACTION! JEEEEEEEEEZ LOUISE.

longshort

I agree with steve here...it does affect as within 5 minutes a huge order (long/short) comes and influence the security...but who cares if it comes in our favor....

awesome call on APII, timmy. I missed it though as couldn't get any from TOS.

Also is it possible to send the alert late night or early morning so we can reserve the shares from TOS. TOS opens at 6 or 7 and timalerts members like me can take the advantage of reserving those shares first.

A

Whiny bitches! Whoaaa, this thing has gone waaaay out of control. All I was stating in 10+ posts on this blog over the last couple days is the pure fact that Tim Alerts are altering the price action in the seconds, minutes immediately after you send the alert. Immediately after you send the alert, you have 100 or more people gang tackling the bid with sell orders.

The reason why the action is not the same after you send the alert saying that you covered is because people cover at different points based onf varying levels of balls, fear, and greed among the subscribers. People know that your patterns last for days and months after you get out, so why not make that extra dollar or two even if Timmay has already covered his. People just want the entry points that is all.

This is in no way a knock on Tim Alerts or any other product you put out, so please stop this whiny talk. I'm a fuccin trader and don't whine--I just reap money off those who do.

I admit I miss the good old days and do get very tired of every post being a self-promotion, a pitch for Tim Alerts/DVD as that gets old. I do miss the good old days with "Tim Lessons," and posts where you went full paragraphs of interesting teaching without mentioning your products; but I realize you gotta make money too, so do your thing.

I do appreciate all the teachings and what you've done to spur my interest back in trading.

Brett Steenbarger's blog does a great job of teaching without coming across as a salesman. I see you post him a lot on the Saturday Seven. Great writer too.

CABeachBum

Don't get me wrong...nothing wrong with pumping and dumping. I'm all for it with a hot chica on the weekend! Ok, maybe Tim didn't pump and dump APII. Mgar is right...anything can affect price action. I think I farted that morning and whoops, some of you lost money. Sorry!

Mike-
I'm somewhat new to the GOTS chatroom and have to commend you for it. It's not only free, but I've learned a ton there from you and the others. I really respect your outlook and helping educate other through a positive approach. Keep up the good work!

A

Tim,

True leaders and pioneers in a field know how to take criticism like a man. They take their critics in stride. They don't get flustered. The Thomas Edisons, the Tiger Woods, the Abraham Lincolns of the world have a vision, they go about that vision, and they don't get bothered by criticism. They keep their head down and respond, not with their words, but with their actions.

Just keep doing what you do, which is teaching. Put the namecalling, criticizing aside (unless it is a pump and dump of course!) and keep doing what you're doing. Posts like this today are a distraction to ur long term plan which is to teach "idiots" like me how to make money; in so doing, turning this fradulent industry upside down.

SamuraiRat

Wow, someone stole my name! I have more bucks than u though.

Tony Ellis

Why don't I have any Timbucks?

SamuraiRat

Do you sign in Tony? If not, you need to. And if you are signing in, you have an old account before timbucks and need to make a new one.

jrobitaille23

Without Tim and his site none of you would know how to do what it is that you do. I too posted my take on how things are done, recognizing that yes Tim does help his odds when he buys, hypes his buy with Tim Alerts, then sells once everyone else adds to his short thus price gets slammed down. The thing is...it only appears that he is pumping and dumping but what is really happening is he does the homework, and based on TA and the obvious B.S. hype that makes an otherwise crappy companies' stock explode up he shares with others what he has found. All of you shouldn't be relying on his alerts as much as I think you do. I haven't ordered any of his products but I assume from testimonials and by doing a little homework myself, it isn't that complicated a strategy to implement on your own. I don't know because I don't get alerts...but they should be used as tools to help people recognize what it is Tim is looking for when he shorts these stocks. So you can, after doing do diligence...find your own to short. Yes there will be many examples of when you would want to short based on an alert. Well...if you do...you need to be on that shite, not lazy. Ever hear of stop losses or good entry points? This is a tricky game this market...things happen. So there will be times on an illiquid stock that his alerts could influence the price big time assuming every Alert subscriber shorted at once. But whose fault is that? Why would you short a stock strictly on someone else's strategy. See an alert go out on a stock lightly traded, know the volume of many Alerters shorting could affect it and then whine because you get burned. I would think Tim's Alerts have made more money for people then lost. Tim keep it up. Although I don't buy your products...yet...I do come on here daily because I am entertained and have learned a great deal just from your Live shows and blog posts. Don't let naysayers get you down and what you do is not illegal. If it were, then Cramer's alerts would have landed him in jail ages ago.

total_keops

Wow, this site is supposed to be about trading and all we do is wacking each other for the last 3-4 posts. Souldn't we focus on trading and stop bitching? I know a lot of stuff happen on timalerts subscribers only website but still, I think we can do better than that. Focus.

SamuraiRat

IMO stop focusing on trading all the time, and come play some Call of Duty 4.

CABeachBum

Tata-
Thanks...and great point. The GOTS chatroom is free and has way more educational information than Tim's blog, alerts, bitching, etc.

Tim's a sell-out and has no time to focus on educating people anymore. He's too busy trying to pull a Jim Cramer by hawking his products every 10 seconds as well as becoming a flash-in-the-pan celebrity. Seriously, what does his blog from earlier today have to do with investing or helping educate investors. Read it for yourself and read my take on it in the responses: http://www.timothysykes.com/timsykes/2008/08/14...

Pathetic! How is Tim any different from K-Fed at this point? Both are wannabe celebrities who people don't want to see in the spotlight!

mike, i dont assume most people are idiots, they prove themselves to be that way...i was nice for a while, but when u keep repeating the same lessons over and over, it gets old quickly. if your stuff gets popular enough, u'll see what i mean.

it has nothing to do with maturity, its patience and i'm all out...especially when the very people i try to help think i use fake aliases and manipulate prices.

Tim-
I'm only citing what other critics and friends from Tulane said. I haven't read your book. I'll make you a deal. You send me your book for free and I'll write up a critique of it...an honest one! If it's good I'll tattoo your message boards with my praise! But if it's along the lines of what those two critics said in my post above, then I'll be blunt about what I think. Deal?

timothysykes

beachbum, theres a dozen hater messages, everyone from my relatives to my accountant, all propagated by my 1-2 haters...did a post a while back, but as usual, u guys dont wanna do the research before jumping to conclusions. sure, i'll send u my book for free, go to your local library and request it. i dont care whether u read my book or not, if u wanna ignore the experiences of others in your niche, u prove your worthlessness

The Chad

Tim,

You're still alright with me...

CABeachBum

Did I say I'm a hater? I'm a critic...very different from a hater! Don't be so paranoid. My library doesn't carry your book. I called all the ones in L.A. and none of them have it. Wanna send it? I'll hold up my end of the bargain and read and critique it.

timothysykes

on the contrary, i welcome haters...don't kid yourself, you're not a critic, critics do research before they post, haters just make assumptions. u'r a hater and no u dont deserve a free copy of my book

CABeachBum

What do you consider research? When I buy a book on Amazon I read the reviews. Just like earlier, I posted the reviews I found during my RESEARCH about your book. Do you want more? There were plenty more than just the two "haters" that I posted from that site earlier? I'm trying to be reasonable with you, but the more of douche bag you become the harder I have to rail into you...and I'll let me research speak for itself. You want more? I already know the answer. We're not getting anywhere with this debate, and if I was a real "hater" then I'd tattoo your site with the research that I've found. I won't do that. Let's get the topic back to stocks and making $$$! Sound good?

And let me know when you're ready for me to review your book. ha!

M

Why don't you stop acting like a child and quit whining yourself? Anybody else who gains any sort of following tends to ignore their haters. That is part of gaining success. Yet you throw fuel to the fire by responding to them with this holier than thou attitude. Instead of spending 50% of your time arguing with people on the internet, go back to what your original goal was which is teaching people. In my humblest opinion, I think you would be that much more successful if you completely ignored any haters. Believe me when I tell you, if you ignore them eventually they'll get bored and go away.

And you're going to have to get over these "idiots". You've been doing this for 10 years. You've only been teaching it for a few months. Give people time to learn instead of biting peoples heads off. You say you want people to ask you anything, yet when they do you usually have a smart ass comment to make. You forget that these idiots pay your bills. A little respect and humility goes a long way.

Anyway, don't take this post as any sort of attack. I'm just being as honest as possible. You're doing well, I like the site, but when you act like a douche you can't be surprised when people bite back. Nobody likes an asshole.

Anyway, in the interest of being productive I have a suggestion on how to help improve timalerts.

What if you created a chat room that nobody else can type in. So instead of you typing out a massive email, and sending it off which takes time to pass through email servers, you can just type a message in the chat window that all your alert subscribers can see instantly. Then send the longer detailed email after. That should at least cut the wait time by a few minutes which is significant when dealing with these volatile stocks.

Just a thought

timothysykes

research would be not taking anythign at face value, maybe looking back at 700 blog posts ago and seeing i busted the dude for using fake aliases everywhere, ben storey which was one of his. u taking the reviews without doing any investigating is like believing a BS PR from one of these crappy companies. class dismissed

timothysykes

"Anybody else who gains any sort of following tends to ignore their haters."

who says i wanted more of a following?

"What if you created a chat room that nobody else can type in. So instead of you typing out a massive email,"

chatrooms offer waaaay to much liability...that said, pallian and i are unveiling multiple websites/products in the upcoming months to make this game clearer

ptramsey

man you people on this blog comment list that have nothing positive to say need to get a life. quick coming to this site, quick trading stocks that tim is involved in. tim is trying to make a dollar like the rest of us, and being nothing but pathetic whiny bitches that have no life but to sit in front of a computer screen and a keyboard and hit behind your pathetic hate comments towards a guy who has proven himself and is trying to help further some people is straight up lame. leave the man alone, does it make you sleep good at night to harass him and try to blame him for volume or price action on a stock. there are thousands of stocks to trade every day, plenty tim doesn't trade, go trade them and leave the man the fuck alone.

CABeachBum

M-
Now you know understand why everyone thinks Tim is a douche bag. Do you really want to invest in a service where he's up at 1am in a losing argument with me on a blog?

And, Tim, your 700 blog posts hardly count as research. Should I research how great Hitler ideology was by reading Mein Kampf? Come on, man! You went to college. I have a higher education than you, so please don't try to tell me how to research by only reading your point of view. That's just comical! Should I also not research any stocks and just listen to you? Doesn't that go against what you're advocating by trying to actually "educate" people? Ha! You're a comedy of errors, man! Thanks for the laugh.

Back to my stock research. Should I just read your blogs instead since it's a better way to research than going over charts? ha!

timothysykes

haha please this is just fun for me as i scan through all my charts...the fact that i am researching at 1am is why my alerts work so well

M

I didn't say you wanted more of a following. I just said that people who gain a following (which you certainly have with the success so far) are always going to have haters. Just part of life. But most of those people (be it Hollywood celebrities, or authors, or journalists, or anyone else) tend to completely ignore their haters. I know it's hard to bite your tongue and not lash out, but if you can eventually they'll go away. And when that happens, the site will be infinitely better which I think is your goal.

timothysykes

nice but i not only enjoy my haters--great fun to "debate" with them and more improtantly, their assumptions help prove my case that most people down here in the gutter love making assumptions/are incompetent at research)...ahh yes and then theres howard stern marketing 101....

YngvaiMalmsteve

ptramsay, I myself would want to hear all differing opinions on this site. I want to hear everything from different people....positive and negative. I don't want to come to a site where it's just a bunch of people kissing ass. I think that would go against Tim's model of transparency.

Of course, at the same time, I wouldn't want this site to degrade into something like a Yahoo message board. It's a matter of finding that happy medium...whatever that is.

M

"no i dont, i can be as immature as i want, i can be overly immature. i do this my way and i take pride in not being the polite BS salesman

CABeachBum

Tim's proving his one of his critics that I cited earlier tonight right. As his critic said:

"Perhaps, however, it's not truly his fault: let's face it, when it comes to imparting wisdom from Wall Street it is simply not possible that a raw twenty-something simply has much to say."

Fun debate tonight, Tim. But is it making your TimAlerts subscribers $$$? You're letting your emotions get the best of you. As you can see from the length of this post, your customers don't want this from you! You say you want yourself and your subscribers to not be in the 90% of investors who lose money, yet you're on a short path to be in the 90% of new companies who fail within the first year.

M

Oh and to the Howard Sterm marketing comment, I actually like Stern. He seems like a pretty down to earth guy with no attitude.

I'd say more like Bill O'Reilly. But hey, like him or hate him, he's successful too, lol.

Anyway, while you're still here, what do you think of ZYXI. It's an old one of yours, but it's continued even higher. It must be ready for a pop soon.

I'm also looking at SQNM, although it may be too big to have a massive drop like most of your other plays. But check the Market cap, and then the balance sheet. Reminds me of Timminco (canadian stock - TIM is the ticker actually)

johnnyvento

I've gotten on you before for coming into the greenonthescreen chat and acting like an asshole... that room is not dedicated to you or your method, yet you insist on coming in there and acting like you are the king of all traders... "bow to me" he says... but here you have the leader of that room denouncing you for your immaturity... go figure

You can act however you want on your own turf, but why you insist on being an ass in someone else's house never fails to astound me... you are like the drunk uncle that everyone is embarrassed about.

You couldn't trade the Muddy method to save your life, so why come in there and act all gonzo?

timothysykes

on the contrary vento, that chatroom is full of my peeps and that short selling strategy everyone likes so much, guess who taught it?

timothysykes

writing about ZYXI this very second, will be posted on the TIMalerts subscribers-only website int he enxt hour:

http://www.timalerts.com

CABeachBum

M-
I thought I was smarter than SQNM and learned a lesson from it. I'm not a fan of buying or shorting biotech. Don't judge it by the balance sheet. It may pop and have a massive drop, but it's a hard one to time.

Anyone else have advice about SQNM?

timothysykes

PS does anyone else find it ironic that on these people are trying to knock me down a notch on the eve of my greatest TIMalert victory? i do. FYI bitches, attack when your opponent is weakest, not strongest

johnnyvento

The people in that room are shorting everyday, not just "pump and dumps". Am I wrong that you say the perfect setups don't come around everyday? Not every short is a "dump", not every upward action is a "squeeze". Not every company is a POS, not every trade is based on cynicism

johnnyvento

I traded APII independent of your alert. As would have anyone in the GOS chat I suspect. You find it "ironic" only because you believe that all trading revolves around your calls.

Zykosis

retards need alerts man. 95% of us are retards

vento, u forget widespread GOTS shorting of penny stocks wasnt even around before me--they're using my strategies and adapting them, its beautiful! i do what works best for me, but as i say in my dvd, thats might not be the best strategy for others. APII was a picture perfect short from my DVD. no, anybody willing to learn these patterns doesnt need my alerts, they're just a crutch.

Those of you who think all biotechs are crap have another thing coming. I work right across the street from SQNM. Those of you who can't explain the science will be hard pressed to tell me why you think that company is a POS. Stop with the hipster cynical affect- if you think that company is crap, then tell me why??

M

yeah biotechs are tricky, but still this one has moved a lot and like TIM (not sykes, Timminco) it will eventually drop I'm sure. But it's not quite the same type of play Tim likes.

Anyway, just for the record, I mentioned ZYXI a few blog posts back so it's nice to see that Tim is now looking at playing it.

Makes me feel like I've learned the strategy well.

So true, Johnny! I've seen your posts in GOS and TimAlerts are well behind the curve. I traded APII independently as well and laughed when his subscribers got burned as soon as he covered. Luckily I didn't suffer the Tim "pump and dump" effect since I covered before Tim did.

CABeachBum

Someone's already talking shit about Timmay on the ZYXI Yahoo message board:

http://messages.finance.yahoo.com/Stocks_%28A_t...

Let's see who prevails.

Johnny, I don't think it's a crap company. But in no way does their balance sheet justify their share price.

They burn loads of cash and have nothing of any significance on their books. In no world is that company worth 1.2 billion dollars.

They have less equity and are burning more cash in 2008 than in 2007, yet the stock is four times higher today. That is suspect to me.

Like I said, it may not be the kind of play Timmy targets, but it doesn't mean it's not a potentially good short.

blahblahblah

shut the fuck up beach bummy.

Zykosis

this is obvious, but you can short a stock that's in an uptrend and still make money. just depends on your view of the company/stock chart

johnnyvento

no way SQNM is any way related to Tim's plays. Stick to ALTU and ISPH

CABeachBum

blahblahblah-
Please back that up with research.

M

Zykosis,

SQNM was in an up trend. It broke that when it dropped from 22 to 19. It's now very close to testing those highs again.

Two things can happen. It's going to break through resistance and continue higher, maybe to 25. Or it will run out of steam around 22 again. If it double tops on low volume, thats a bearish signal and similarly to Tim's shorts, would be a good indicator to short it.

But again as I've said this is a bigger company and it's not going to have a violent price drop like APII did. Just like TIMMINCO (TIM) I think over 3 or 4 months this stock will fade.

Will likely be a longer term short for my portfolio.

Zykosis

agreed. but i was looking at ZYXI when i made that last comment. SQNM isn't a TIM play. :)

timothysykes

SQNM is why i'll always have a business, newbies shorts were in at 11, 12, 13--i warned against....as for shorting my brand, thats just silly, between the frauds, those who cant make fun of themselves and the random stock pickers, i literally have 0 competition. stay tuned, 3 new sites in the next month, all tailored to different segments of this gutter

M

lol, Johnny you stick to those. I'll stick to SQNM. Compared to those, this one is over valued by about 4 times.

Zykosis

i'm just waiting for the potential supernovas plz, thx

Zykosis

why play guessing games with SQNM now.

Zykosis

I trade wearing this guys big red hat.

OK M tell me when you are short, I've called this one long as a buy and hold since the 15's

hahaha Tim never fails to entertain. Why are people coming to his website to hate on him?... "His" website.

I've read my fair share of books and I for one found his book inspiring and real. He constantly talks about how he cuts through the BS... and he does just that.

1. He doesn't allow piece of sh*t products and services to be advertised on his blog.

2. When people ask a question that a trader should know the answer to, he doesn't bend over to lick their a$$ just because they're a customer... he cuts to the chase... sometimes he may come off as snappy, but isn't that the sh*t?... it pushes the less educated traders to get into gear(more informed).

3. He talks over and over again about how he is a terrible timer... no BS.

4. He responds to emails personally... And when you order his product... he tells you to not hesitate to contact him if you have any questions.

5. He tells us how much money he makes... This isn't even a make money blog... but he goes the extra mile to stand by his no BS on his site.

6. He sticks to what he knows when it comes to trading... he stays disciplined and doesn't jump at every little opportunity.

7. He's straight up consistent in everything he does... on this website, TimAlerts, not buying into BS, not taking BS... if you can find an entrepreneur on the internet that is this consistent to what they preach, send over the link... I'd love to check them out.

8. He's a business man... plain and simple... he built this whole culture of Timothy Sykes penny stock trading from ground up... Let his work ethic speak for itself...

9. He actually makes people money... He's made me thousands in the last month that I would never have made otherwise... I almost feel guilty at how easily he has made me money...

I don't usually speak out, I'm more of a sidelines guy... but WTF... people who are here bashing Tim have got to be the biggest morons...

Don't you see that the more you are bashing and causing this drama. Tim is the only one reaping the rewards...

This is free advertisement. Go tell all your friends right away how you were talking smack to Timothy Sykes and spread the word so more people come to his site and he continues to rack in the cash... idiots.

Why do you think Tim is fueling the fire of this heated debate?. Gee, maybe he knows he is benefiting from this nonsense?... Absolutely.

Haters, keep hating... you're making Tim filthy rich.

Paul Simonton

It looks like Tim's empire is imploding as we speak. I don't like this one bit. The honeymoon is over I guess.

batt88

Hey Tim....If you want to get rid of whiny bitches you might want to be a little bit more selective on memberships. One method you may consider, RAISING your fees.Exclusivity will not eliminate whiners but it will drasitically reduce them. In turn your alerts will not come under such scrutiny. I for one believe in the service and use it to enhance MY trading decisions.

venom

LOL, This shit is hilarious. All you haters are still on this site checking his blog, his picks, learning his strategy and such. If you're so upset with his methods you should bounce. Get the fuck off this page and go elsewhere. I'm personally learning a lot about trading from Tim and am sick of this bs all over this site.

If you're not down with TIM then BOUNCE!!!!!

Hey - some actual research on Yngvai...'s topic:

http://ftalphaville.ft.com/blog/2008/08/14/1507...

Traders copying each other (as in alert lists or herd mentality) are the cause of stock spikes.

Matt

On the topic of APII, it showed a heck of a retrace today, back up 50%.

And about the TimBucks, I'm new to the site (I just subscribed to the Alerts yesterday, we'll see how that goes) so I'm not sure exactly what they are for. Are they like Zimbabwe Dollars?

El Kabong

Matt Timbucks can be redeemed for stuff not listed yet.

I took mine to the the casino but they said no way jose.

However i was able to redeem a few Timbucks for a 3 pack of Mr. Freshleys Pecan Swirls at my local deli. Yummy

The owner is a big fan.

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)!
