Why Don’t More People Know How To Short Sell: A Look At The Worldwide Carnage

I’ve been getting a lot of confused emails from people wondering why every day now I’m so happy/cocky/bragging, after all, I teach/trade/write about the stock market so I must be feeling the pain the entire industry is, right?

You dumb pieces of brainwashed-by-now-insolvent-financial-firms-marketing-to-you shit, I’m primarily a short seller, I make $ when stocks go down…and you can you.

My new ShortStocking instructional DVD will be shipped in less than a month–you can pre-order here and save 10%–and in those 4-discs/6 hours, along with its 220-page instruction manual, I will teach you everything I know about Short Selling.

Namely, how I used this greatly misunderstood strategy to make $1 million+, become the #1 ranked short bias hedge fund manager 2003-2006 (Barclays) and now owe much of my 150% gain in the last year to it.

I promise, once you understand the variables involved, Short Selling is not that hard, it’s actually quite easy.

It’s just that up until now, there really has never been a solid book/study guide on how to profit from Short Selling, which is sad/makes it all too easy for me.

So look at the worldwide carnage so far this year and cheer up, soon, you’ll learn how to profit from it and you too will laugh at all those who are stuck as being forever bullish:

    Tim, great site - question for you

    I read your book, and you use long and short strategies - but based on your site it seems that know you focus more on short positions? Or both?

    Thank you
  • i still buy, but only hype-related breakouts, none of those going on right now
  • So much negative percentages? About 16 countries are down by more than 50%. That should imply that the living of many must have changed drastically.

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)!
