The Trader Who Likes To Hike:

I love getting emails like this:

Tim, I know you must be swamped judging by the times of your email releases in the wee hours of the am, but here’s an update. I am still hiking and making money simultaneously by applying your principles to some of my own picks (SYNM, YGE, GMXR to name a few). I made 5Gs in a month just off these alone. These are real companies, of course, so I don’t bother clogging up the daily barrage you get from your subscribers. I’ve been so busy hiking (it hasn’t rained a drop here in over a month), that I haven’t been doing too much writing.
-Eric L.

This guy emails me every now and then with his trading profits and how those profits allow him to do what he loves most: hike. That’s awesome!

Trading should never be thought of as a full-time job as those who do it that way really have no lives and are moody, agitated…straight up weird people.

I think trading is best used as a way to increase your wealth/make a few extra bucks when awesome opportunities present themselves.

And if you do it that way, then you get to hike mountains like these as your full-time job:

    It’s always cool to hear of your ‘Timites’ using their profits to fund their passions! If I could just focus on your strategy instead of trying to time the ‘Big Boy’ market, I’m sure I’d have more for my mission trips…dang day job:-)

    update: Hey Tim, I’m editing my original comment (which I tried to erase because I didn’t realize this was a Disqus thing)- I would never want to disrespect you by putting evan4christ as my username- I’m Jewish by birth and know you are too. That’s my password, but when I tried to delete it, it wouldn’t let me. It also wouldn’t let me add a website after the fact to link to my name. It’s mission-trading.com still. It looks pretty cool, just have no idea where I’m going with it yet. Feel free to erase this babbling comment ;-)

    hahah ur post is retarted TIM.. its a straight up full time job. u can’t part time trade, just like you can’t practice law part time, or do real estate part time, or even be a doctor part time. it requires 100% of your time if you wish to turn speculation into a business. its no wonder u sell dvd’s and day trade garbage with other members to help push prices down. try day trading stock with volume and we’ll see how u perform. keep holding shorts overnight and one day u will owe more than u ever made and be frozen in fear. just waiting for my prediction to come true just as i predict stock break outs on a daily basis. check me out on thelion.com chart1pattern

    tim what is the average yearly percentage return you generate?? Cos technically i could just open a £5 account and spreadbet £5 per point and make 10 points in a day and i’d be beating you on a % basis :)

    why hello people , market has been crazy for the last few months, netted 80k this week so i’m away to spain for a couple of weeks. The it’s unbelieeeevable how many noobs came asking me ‘how do i make millionzz J’ after i was mentioned in a post, how did these people even get a hang of my email! Lol, pennystocking is a great little niche i suppose, but i’ll continue to scalp time and sales ,order flow and market profile off the YM futures for now….

    Key is to make millions in this game you gotta be either exceptional, or you gotta know your market, just one market, live,breather,eat and sleep one market. The noobs have a habit of jumping onto the bandwagon of whatever is hot , ever thought you could make a killing trading wheat options? It’s sad how many noobs i see at futex coming in to trade futures because they think it’s cool to play with the big boysm weeks later they are gone and probably in much debt.

    Advice: learn your market and know it better than anyone else.
    Read an american hedge fund, was actually a great little ‘rocky’ story, i do think from reading that the one of the only reasons tim actually made it big was because he learnt the pennystock market so well, seemed like he sucked at every other market like forex option futures lol no offense tim, and to the sheep blindly following tim’s alerts, this game isn’t easy, hell no,trading is hard, damn hard, very hard. I suppose that makes pennystocking the easy option. Be careful Tim, you’d be surprised how quickly a strategy like this could…implode if enough noobs get the hang of it.

    jammy15yr,

    You could not spread bet at £5 a point with a £5 account, since you would immediatly be in a margin call do to the spread being against you. If you wanted to spreadbet a stock you would typically need 5% to 10% initial margin, but on Tim’s stocks you would need more like 100%. With 100% initial margin, it would be completely crazy to spread bet since the spread on these stocks are usually large enough anyway. Also, trying to make 1000% a day on leverage by spread betting micro caps is quite possibly the craziest thing I have ever heard. Stick to Pennystocking!

    lol, as of now i actually bought a year of sierra charts, i now watch the tape on the ES for around 1-2 hours a day, you would not believe how much more of a deeper understanding you get for the market when you read the tape!
