I’ve More Than Doubled My Money In 10 Months, I Laugh At This Panic…

Posted by Timothy Sykes on Wed 17th of Sep, 2008 06:21:35 PM

Oh yes, despite the poor market environment, I’ve more than doubled my money in the last 10 months. I haven’t traded in 9 trading days, TIMalerts peeps are worried, but I’m waiting, saving my capital, ready to pounce on any incredible opportunities…

Don’t believe me? Think I’m a scammer? Think I’m a snake oil salesman? Please, I get that all the time…bitches.

Welcome to/enjoy my business model Transparent Investment Management (TIM)

Considering I’ve had plenty of runs/streaks/whatever you wanna call this before, I knew here’d be plenty of non-believers, thinking I got lucky on some penny stock, I’m manipulating some penny stock or my entries and exits were so good that I have some special gift that makes it so others could not possible duplicate my results.

Wrong on all counts.

To show EXACTLY how I earn my index/industry shattering returns, my lil TIM project details EVERY SINGLE TRADE, EVERY SINGLE SUCCESS, EVERY SINGLE FAILURE.

You can see them all right HERE

You’ll find that instead of me being lucky, I go into each trade with a plan—and my plan/strategy is detailed in my PennyStocking DVD which you can learn more about HERE.

You’ll find that instead of me manipulating penny stocks, I profit from reading the charts of those stocks that have been manipulated/hyped. It’s easy. Click on any dozen of my more than 900 blog posts now and you’ll begin to understand the manipulation/hype pattern as I do.

You’ll find that inseatd of me having perfect entries and exits, I screw up just about every trade. That’s right, for all my experience and know how, I’m not a great trader—which is why I think you can do better than me.

This is my business model, haters, fans, everyone, you’ll learn this only too well as by the time I’m done with whatever the hell this is exactly that I’m doing, I will make damn sure you see I’m the most brutally honest motherfucker in this joke of an industry.

You call me obnoxious. Sure. You call me a bitch. Sure. You call me a greedy Jew. Definitely. I don’t give a flying f$ck what you think of me as long as you recognize the above average trading opportunities I’m trying to get you to profit from.

For the past decade, these stocks have sucked away whatever life I tried to have and in the process made me somewhat wealthy and jaded. Now I’m the most determined trading teacher motherfucker you’ll ever meet/read…never forget that.

I don’t need to trade every day or every week cuz I’ve got patience. Get some too and you’ll live a happier life.

  • thanks chas, u just earned a blog post, too many misconceptions all in 1 comment, wow
  • chas
    Tim,
    Any lame ass trader can short penny stocks and make money, and by the way I think it's against the law if it is under a certain price. Get some balls and short some real stocks. Your nothing but a promoter, who talks bad about other promoters, it's funny that you probably don't even know or understand anything about any of the companies you short. Most of these companies do fail, but its because of people like you, who make it hard for investors to put thier money into a start up or a developmental stage company. Ass holes like you keep the company who may have a niche idea or business model that works from getting the capital they need at a decent price because of the short selling on Low volume stocks. You are doing the same thing to people, stealing from them. People who invest in Penny Stocks are not all morons, and most do it knowing they will probably lose thier money, but like the idea so they invest. You are stealing from them, by shorting a developmental company stock and using thier own shares to do it. No one goes into business to fail and the conditions with predatory financing and all of the other potential problems in the market are hard enough, without an ass hole like you!

    Douch!
  • Michael. Your comments about Tim is out of order.
    You can visit Barnes library or another that your preference and problem answered ok?

  • michael, look at the edit history on wikipedia, it doesnt matter who updates it, lotsof haters, most of whom are stock promoters, never gonna change...it falls upon people like u to do thorough research or just stick around and i'll prove it month by month
  • YngvaiMalmsteve
    Michael,

    Go over to Covestor. My username is the same (YngaiMalmsteve) there. You will see my account is "auto-verified", independently by Covestor. That means, every time I make a trade, it's independently and automatically verified and is free for anyone to see. I can't be "non-existent" when my returns and trades are independently verified. This isn't done "after-the-fact" to create fake returns....any time I do a trade, it's automatically updated.

    Tim's trades are also independently and auto-verified on Covestor, as well as other traders that hang out here.

    Do some DD. You'll find that Tim is legit.

    BTW, I'd be happy to update your Wikipedia entry for you, but my library doesn't have a copy of your book. Care to donate a few copies to the Queens Library system so the inner city youth of NYC have a shot at learning from your success?
  • Michael B
    Tim,

    If you want the world to have a fair and accurate perception of you WITHOUT having to buy your book or DVD, you should update Wikipedia.

    Otherwise, well, live with it.
  • Gordon
    Michael - Timmy's not in the investment information business. This is show business!!!
  • Sorry but I don’t write a good english.
    Before my comment about the terrorista attack from the SEC today, i wanna say than the last wednesday, i haved the honor from receive a intensive training with Timothy.
    I recomend all the person than participe in this post, try to make this training because is one of the better training than i receive in this area.
    Too easy in your explain, don’t talk 6 hours of stupid literary words because he go directly at the point than discover in each person. With 4 or 5 question, he focus the training exactly in the point than you can need aid.
    It was a great a very interesting meeting between us.
    5 stars on recomendation……hehe.
    In other idea….Do you think than the SEC toke i good decition in suspend the short selling?
    This is a crime…What happen is some companies the stock fall for any reason? Who stop this fall? One that the principles of the short selling is to save some stocks to continuo to fall. We are the rescue’s stocks man when make a short selling!!!!!
    Why the SEC’s stupids people than THINK to know about short selling, take this class of decition?
    What is the turbulent business than they have?
    It’s a crime!!! The most greatest crime after the nazi made in the II world war…..
    is my simple opinion and repeat my apology with my english
  • Michael for, fuck's sake, do some research more than just a wikipedia page...read my book, its all detailed, see my hedge fund's 20% returns, they're all audited, my "collapse", in reality a 35% drawdown was due to an illiquid stock that wasnt my core strategy...dont worry your post with your other points is coming but i've got a ton of other ones first
  • Michael B
    Also, here's something disconcerting I found in Timothy Sykes's Wikipedia article:

    ---
    Often called the "The Startup", In early 2003, Sykes founded Cilantro Fund Management LLC, a hedge fund based in New York City. The fund was ranked number one Short Bias Hedge Fund for 2003-2006 by Barclays before __closing__ in late 2007 after __losing roughly one third of its value__.
    ---

    It's Wikipedia, please update that if it's wrong. So why is that disconcerting?

    Because that's his track record on managing other people's money. This wasn't his Bar Mitzvah money on his own private account that frankly no one else can call his bluff on. This is what happened when he had third-party investors and some accountability. Collapse.

    All I see here is an extraordinary amount of effort invested in looking like a successful speculator, but not so much actual, third-party verified success. He projects confidence very well. It's enough to get you guys to buy into his program and it was enough to get some rich people to sign some checks for his fund.

    I wish you the best of luck with that.
  • Michael B
    No offense, YngvaiMalmsteve, but a guarantee from you is worthless. I'm sure you're a nice honest guy, but this isn't information I can bank on.

    What's our relationship? None. You're totally unknown (by me). You may not even exist. There's no way for me to know who you are or what your motivations are. Your assertion that this is all kosher contributes no more information than anything Tim could be saying.

    Sorry.
  • YngvaiMalmsteve
    Michael,

    I can guarantee you that Tim is not a fraud. I'm currently ranked #3 on Covestor and have been using some of Tim's techniques.

    There's nothing fishy or fake going on here. Just choosing high probability trades based on certain variables.
  • Michael B
    Hey Tim,

    Thanks for volunteering to respond in a blog post, that's much more than I was expecting.

    Best.
  • LOL, one thing i gotta say right now,

    1. I send 1 email to all my TIMalert subscribers...your con would be nice except we have an entire subscribers only site--the ones who got the bad email would see right away.

    2. i outline my potential trades each morning

    3. my DVD http://www.timothysykes.com/dvd goes over all my trading rational and time tested patterns again and again.

    4. my truest readers are all dominating covestor, this shit is too easy
  • thanks mike, u just earned yourself a blog post, allow me to dominate your points, one at a time :)
  • Michael B
    Tim,

    Firstly, please don't take offense. I have nothing for or against you either way, I am simply expressing why a rational actor who has no reason to trust you (odds are we're strangers, after all) cannot be convinced by any of the information on your site.

    The fact that you don't announce the positions you're taking ahead of time makes it difficult to believe the record above. There's nothing really transparent about it. Why can't I open up a blog of my own and at the end of each trading day, identify a stock, develop a rationale for why it moved the way it did, and say I shorted/longed it to make a small profit? I could even occasionally screw up and lament about my shortcomings just to make it even more realsistic.

    The private subscription only stock picker mailing list? Let me tell you about a well known con.

    The Yankees and The Mets go into the World Series. I have a mailing list of a million people. I email half of those people and say The Yankees will win game 1, and the other that The Mets will win game 1. Lets say The Yankees win, fine. I will now contact the half million people who I told that The Yankees would win and tell half of THEM (250,000) that The Yankees will win game 2, and the other half (also 250,000) that The Mets will win game 2.

    Repeat this process a few more times. Eventually there'll be a small enough group left (either 125,000 or 62,500 or 31,250 or 15,625) who believe you have some amazing predictive power, and you simply sell that group the outcome of Game 4 (or 5, or 6, or 7) the outcome for $500.

    The way you "could be" running this same con is by emailing half of your list a rationale for why you're shorting one stock, and the other half a rationale why you're going long on it, and then if you find that you're right a few times a row for a small group of people, they'll have a great testimonial and say you're a genius.

    It doesn't really matter if you address these concerns or not. I suspect many people will read this post and still end up subscribing because they want to believe. Your transparency convinces them.

    But it's not going to convince me.

    Best.

    Hi Tim.
    I ve been trading for 13 years now. I live in spain. I think you are honest about trading, i see some points of view of you and i think just the same. Some of the books you recommend are in my library too, great books. My favorite is "come into my trading room" by a.Elder. I make only 25% on a good year, but, for me, its enough, because i dont lose money on bear markets like the one we see now. Well, i make money selling futures, indeed.
    I see people hate very easily, i dont understand all that hate.
    Well im glad there´s someone ( you), who knows how to trade.
    I laugh at this "panic" too...

  • PennyStocking DVD info is here:

  • CJ Artis
    Tim, do you agree, people in general need to apply 21st century investment strategies in todays market? This is most certainly a time where new fortunes will be made.
    Happy Trading
  • Jean-Paul
    You tell them Timmay :-)
  • Gonads Areus
    Don't laugh too hard, you'll be on the same bread line as the rest of us.

    I was never right so fast in a prediction in my life, While you were singing the praises of the Ex mustacioed weasel, Bill "I'm the Bond Fairy" Gross, I told you he was just a gambling pimp like the rest of them.

    Pimpco closed end funds have gotten torched the last week. I havent bothered to look at the mutual funds, Im sure they too, have bent over and been owned.

    So that 1% he made for 5 seconds on the Fannie bailout was nothing.
  • direhack
    Hey Tim, how can I buy your PennyStocking DVDs? Pennystocking website and TIM Store links are 'coming soon'
  • marmaladeskies
    ahh tim i think i'm seeing a bullish reversal pattern on APWR right now. or maybe it just had another down day and that's what i want to think lol
  • younggunz
    Settle down on Kabong I am pretty sure he was being sarcastic. Anyone that's been around Tim's site should know that would be the funniest shit ever.

    Orthodoc- Tim is lying about screwing up pretty much all of his trades? OK if you say so. I wouldn't go as far as saying he's a liar. I think it's more him just being hard on himself.
  • ok done-
  • Tim is the best!
  • VSE not my kind of play, COIN none vailable or else I would shorted the bejesus outta it...update your blogroll, you're gonna be on the new PennyStocking.com one
  • any why didn't you short COIN? That's your perfect kind of trade
  • you're missing some great ones Tim

    caught another great one VSE right at the open.... down 61% from the open

    it's all on my blog
  • oh yah LOL, waht exactly am i lying about, my entire site is realtime and commentable, bring it ignorant haters, bring it cuz u got nothinnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
  • ha, i'd never waste my $ on a shitty firm like MS!

    uptick rule is totally irrelevant, i short into strength, not weakness, as evidenced by my lack of trades lately
  • neil2
    Hey Tim, just curious if your past success shorting was during the time where there was the uptick rule?
  • Orthodoc
    Tim,

    Please get a life you lying cunt.
  • Andy Dearden
    u nut case.. Tims all natural.. so screw u.. u lil whinny bitch!!! stupid people.. get ur facts straight!!!
  • El Kabong
    Tim. I am troubled by some recent rumors about you on the internet. They are saying that while in Japan you plotted with investors to single handedly bring down the financial industry.

    They go on to say your goal is to buy Morgan Stanley with your barmitzah money. I hope your diabolical plan does not come to fruition.

    Anywho Good job on doubling your money.
