So Many Stocks To Short Sell: Potentially 28 Today

This was sent last night to TIMalert subscribers so they could prepare for today, I’ve already sent out a TIMalert on one of these and we’re up 15% so far….guess which one?

Let’s just bail every moron out; this overly compassionate government is
gonna sink our joke of an economy til 2010 and beyond but for now it’s good
for a market bounce that allows me to short crap rising:

AER is a 1st day spiker, up 50% to $4ish

APP is only the st day spiker, but most came in the last 5 minutes…reminds
me of a weak EVC/KVHI, I need more spiking to interest me

CTCM had its first up day into a perfect downtrending chart, but its got
intraday support everywhere, no thanks

NOG is the little energy play that could, oil related, no thanks FOR has
surged from $3 to $5, right at resistance, might be opportunity to short for
50 cents of downside, not really enough for me…yet, I want more spiking

TACT first day spike from $3 to $5 on news of repurchase program, c’mon
spike more for a potential short!

WSM surged from $5 to $7 since we find out CEO had to sell shares as a
debt..still doesn’t make people wanna buy their overpriced crap, potential
short

RMTI couldn’t stay green, potential short although it is illiquid and
there’s many better plays out there…support just above $3.50 and $3.

SOLR is the worst solar play around, couldn’t even go up much yesterday,
already up from $1.50, definite potential short.

CHRS is up from 60 cents to $1.20

RDNT is a nice two-day spiker, but only from $2 to $3.25 so far.

SIFY had a big last minute spike, now that’s really EVC-like, I’ll try to
reserve shares to short.

SPPR surged from $1 to $2, right at resistance,
still would love to catch early shorts in a squeeze

JASO is just like any other solar play up 50% in 1 day, c’mon big oil
rebound, pleaseeeee

CSUN is the exact same as JASO, why do the executive pretend any
differently?

FCEL just another alternative energy play to watch

OVEN gapped up big and did nothing, means it’s not a high priority potential
short for me, I need spiking, not rational jumps.

PTEC is one of the worst publicly traded companies in the world, up from $2
to $3 so far, needs more upside for me to wanna short

NBIX is a crappy biotech, but it doesn’t have any historical volatility, not
worth my time writing about let alone shorting

MMR keeps surging, it stays on my potential short watchlist

SD keeps going, but it’s consolidating as it surges making any short tough,
no thanks

YRCW dipped but kept going, potential short for sure

KVHI was an easy 15% gain for me, see detailed post here

STXS keeps going, gotta love the stubborn shorts who think they can hang on,
I hope they get squeezed til their accounts bleed like a value
investor…which would also open another potential short for me!

NCT is nearly a quadruple off its 50 cent-ish lows, lots of intraday support
though

PRST is a perfect 1st day bounce into a death spiral…gotta reserve shares to
short, hopefully into more upside

BHS is like PRST, death spiral and spike and all, god I love this chart
pattern!

TASR had fundamentally positive news, not a short for me.

  • TommyTim
    Added another 5K short at 1.95 on GGP. Total 10K short at average 1.85. GGP will be trading under $1 by tomorrow. I told you maximum $2 upside which is exactly the intraday high today. I'll cover first 5K at 1.30 and next 5K at 1.
  • my bad, todays alert wasnt on this watchlist, too many friggin potential trades...wait til u see my gains though, $1700+ putting me over $38,000, up 209% since last november:

  • lmsmith
    excellent Tim!! I would like to see gains -percentage wise in the thousands. you play with too little money---you have more money now---use it
  • no lm, i'll continue to trade conservatively
  • TommyTim
    Tim is a good trader for himself. No offense bro, your alerts are worthless to the average user. You short very low floaters with no volume. Props to you for being a good businessman. You're making 30K a month from a bunch of newbies who are too dumb to trade on their own. LoL Shalom from a fellow jewish brother.
  • whaaat i'm right about 80-90% of the time, even teh dumbest people otu there will have a hard time losing $ as long as they learn how i trade first
  • Getshorty
    Shorted 1000 shares of SRI after Tim covered AND the Timmish squeeze was done, solid downtrend, $330 in paper profits so far..... watching closely, have given back gains too many times.
  • Getshorty
    Previous post... shorted 3.91
  • Getshorty
    Damn illiquidity, tried to cover my 1000 shares shorted at 3.91 at 3.72, it kept on running from me, covered
    100 @ 3.73
    100 @ 3.74
    100 @ 3.77
    100 @ 3.75
    100 @ 3.77
    100 @ 3.75
    100 @ 3.76
    100 @ 3.79

    Damn, at least I didn’t give it all back
  • lmsmith
    LEN--- 6.11 close---- that's 1.25 per share...
    DHI-- on my watch list.
  • younggunz
    Tommytim you're the one that posted on here almost everyday with your own picks and your lead pipe lock that oil would be at $150 a barrel by years end all the while yelling, "the sky is falling the sky is falling."

    There are a handful of traders with decent sized accounts making good money off of the alerts. Right now with the sharing of knowledge there are becoming more and more situations where subscribers are hitting trades before an alert comes out. Also there are more and more people playing seperate stocks found on the watchlist because there are multiple plays happening at the same time and Tim only does one at a time.
  • CSUN is up 50%, JASO 14%. Nice short pick?
  • Tim did you have to reserve shares of SRI the night before? I was with a TOS rep as soon as they opened and he said they had no shares.
  • I was with a TOS rep as soon as they opened and he said they had no shares. Tim did you have to reserve shares of SRI the night before?
  • u hve to keep trying throughout the day u lazy bastards
  • I wasn't being lazy at all. TOS indicates that theyre open at 0600am CST, so I was up at 0400am PST trying to reserve SRI with Ira as well and he said there was no SRI available. I just thought you were able to get share perhaps earlier...like the night before.
  • LEN and the homebuilders aren't exactly the best short idea. I think you are going to be right though lmsmith and it might work out longterm. good for quick trade. these stocks have been beaten for a couple yrs and seem harder to predict than your avg crappy small floater that is up 200% w no fundamentals.

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)!
