God I LOVE getting emails like this from trading challenge students:
Especially because thanks to Profitly you can see EXACTLY how he makes his money…see his profile here, he’s actually up to $30,000 in profits now in just under 2 months of being my student since this was an email from a few weeks ago (I’m waaaaay behind on many blog posts) and he seems like just a regular nice guy:
FYI I emailed him first saying I was looking forward to meeting him as he just signed up for my annual Vegas conference October 13-15, 2012 at The Hard Rock Hotel (email admin@timothysykes.com if you want in on earlybird specials which are only lasting for a few more days)…see scenes from last year’s event:
Thanks Tim,
Looking forward to going out and learning, plus meeting you and everyone else. Wife has been supportive of me being a challenge student, working 70 hours a week and studying 20 more. Plus letting us go to Vegas for our anniversary. She’s a keeper.
Been learning a lot so far, I appreciate your video lessons and the webinars. Your PennyStocking Framework DVD is what sealed the deal for the desire to hit Vegas though. Awesome DVD.
First month of Challenge Student earned me net $17k (April 12 – May 12). Should have earned more but I’ve been stuck in a “make a bunch of money one day and do something stupid to lose it the same day” mode.
Yesterday for example.
Was up $6k+ in the 1st hour thanks to buying GWBU while everyone was shorting premarket and had sold my SYNC at the high and was waiting for a dip. (6k is roughly 9% for me) Got on the phone with a customer and was going to ease back into SYNC as I figured it would fade in the day like it has in the past.
Instead I fat fingered into SYNC on it’s first drop using most of my margin right before it truly dipped. Down 12k in a few minutes as it crashed to the low after that. So I had to decide what to sell for a loss.
I knew they would bring SYNC back up a little at least.
Wasn’t so sure about ORYN at that point (before they supported it for the day), so I unloaded some ORYN for a loss to free up enough to buy the big dip in SYNC and started to unload it on the way up so I wouldn’t be carrying any margin overnight.
All said and done I ended the day with $115 out of the $6k I made.
Crap like that gets old quick. Days before where I was up big and lost out was just out of sheer stupidity. Expensive lessons, but would rather get the lessons learned than to keep repeating mistakes and not learn I suppose.
Anyway, I appreciate all you and Goode do, Mike has taught me a lot also and the wife and I are looking forward to Vegas.
Keep on ignoring the haters and have a good day,
