It’s Good To Help People: My Scholarship & GreenOnTheScreen’s Donation

Tags: Giveaways, Good Trades

Really makes me good/proud to see those of us who are profiting nicely through PennyStocking willing to give back to others…

First, as those of you who’ve read my book An American Hedge Fund know, I started my Tulane scholarship “The Timothy Sykes Award For Student Who Learn Good” (that’s the name I wanted, but was prohibited from using) waaay back in 2002, really just cuz I’d made too much $ too quickly and wanted to commemorate my feat by giving a bit of cash each year to inspire others…

I’m waaay behind on my posts, but this May my award went to Maureen King–not a student as my award is open to all in the Tulane community, professors, alumni, etc.–who built a house from scratch and is living off the land…literally. Check out the whole article “How Does Her Garden Grow” by clicking HERE.

The year before the winner was Susan Zaluski, an incredibly talented girl who builds big ass boats from scratch and teach others to do it too. See her article HERE.

And now, the latest PennyStockers to give something back are the bad ass folks at  

Reminder, My Twitter Contest For A Free PennyStocking DVD Ends Today!

Tags: Cool Products, Giveaways, TIMaways

Oh yes, it’s been a few days since I first announced the contest in THIS post, so just a reminder Twitter me your guess (follow me first HERE) as to what the Dow closes at today–cutoff time if 3PM EST–and have a shot at winning my critically acclaimed, ridiculously successful wealth building tool the PennyStocking DVD package

And, click that original contest post so see all the good reviews and people it’s already made tens, even hundreds of thousands of dollars. I’m sure a few people have lost money too, but nobody’s banging down my door nor posting nasty comments so I truly believe the vast majority of people have been making good money….after all, since my TIMalerts inception just 50 days ago, I’m 18 for 18 in my picks, average gain being 20%, last two picks have been 30% and 47%, and all those picks were culled from the variables, theories and strategies detailed in my PennyStocking DVD!

As a bonus,

Basically just a not-so-clever way to get you to watch LiveStock tomorrow from 1-2PM EST! Well,

Screw Bastille Day, people around the world are really celebrating my mom’s birthday today! Happy birthday mom! And, I want all you readers to leave a comment on this post and wish her a happy birthday too!

While she’s lived in small towns across Connecticut all her life, her love, guidance and work ethic helped create this guy who’s determined to flip this joke of an industry on its ugly BS spewing head by helping to teach the 90% of traders who lose and 70% of mutual fund investors who underperform the market each year to distrust/despise/lynch these marketers/frauds/gurus/cokeheads/fee-earning-scumbags/embarrassment-to-this-once-great-industry who disgrace us with their existence.

To celebrate, I’ll be giving away one free copy of my $297 PennyStocking Package to one of my Twitter followers (see my profile HERE).

I don’t know if anyone’s done contests with their Twitter followers before so I gotta think this thing out to make sure everything goes smoothly…probly gonna go from this Thursday to next Thursday, so for now, to enter, just become one of my Twitter followers (become one HERE).
, get used to Twitter (you’ll thank me one day) and cool Twitter applications like StockTwits. Hell, even my mom is on Twitter (she just signed up), you can follow her HERE, maybe even direct message her a happy birthday!

Guess Who Wins The US Open And Win A PennyStocking DVD Package!

Tags: Cool Opportunities, Cool Products, DVD Reviews, Giveaways

Considering nobody won my previous PennyStocking DVD Giveaway contest, I figured today’s US Open playoff between iceman Tiger and funny old guy Rocco would be as good of an excuse as any other to have another giveaway…

So this time around you gotta leave a comment below with your guess who’s gonna win, by how many strokes and what each player is gonna shoot on the 18th hole…that’s it. Since there’s really no perfect plays today, I encourage all of you to watch, should be interesting!

And just in case I haven’t promoted this PennyStocking instructional DVD package enough, besides it being a 6-hour 4-disc DVD set, it comes with a 220-page instruction manual and autographed copy of my book An American Hedge Fund and has got students like Tony Ellis, a grad student up $50,000 this year already, saying “I agree completely, Tim’s strategy is like free money. I’ve made tens of thousands of dollars shorting these stocks.” and “I’ve made over 10X DVD cost on NCEN the last week!”.  

You Can’t Handle The Pump, Marathon LiveStock Nor My DVD Contest Rules

Tags: Giveaways, LiveStock, Videos

My latest Youtube clip, “You Can’t Handle The Pump!”, produced, directed and edited by the man himself, Chuckieeeeeee Boyce, features me playing the role of a stock promoter, who’s twisted the law to fit his own little warped mind…kinda like Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men…you can call me Jew Nicholson.

As much as we all want to hate people like this,  

Win A Free Copy Of My $297 PennyStocking Instructional DVD By Guessing Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (LEH) Friday’s Closing Price!

Tags: Breakdowns, Giveaways, TIMaways

You wanna know the one thing I kept thinking about as I watched Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (LEH) crap the bed today? I was thinking this is the perfect excuse to do a contest! That’s right, I could care less about the suffering longs–I don’t know any people that dumb– or the happy short sellers–now that’s my kind of crowd!!–but most importantly, I’m just grateful for the s#@% hitting the fan.

After all, it’s incredibly rare to see justice being done on Wall Street — that being making these leverage-and-coke-loving-wholly-superficial-and-soulless-in-the-same-vein-as-Traitor-Monthly’s-
editor-in-thief finance freaks pay for their sins — so to get everyone into the holiday short selling spirit, I’m going to give one precious normally $297 priced PennyStocking Instructional DVD Package away FOR FREE…to the person who correctly guesses LEH’s closing price this Friday the 13th.

 

Contest Time: No More BS Guessing Games, This Is PennyStocking!

Tags: Giveaways, Manipulation, Supernovas, TIMaways

The popularity of last week’s entertaining but inevitably useless contest got me thinking–I wondered how many people would enter a contest where they might learn something, meaning they’d actually have to do a little work? So, I give you NT Holding Corp (NTHH.OB), a sketchy sketchy sketchy stock that decupled (10x) in price last week on some surprisingly not-so-insignificant trading volume.

What caused this staggering price surge and do you think it will continue? I’ve done my research, but let’s see what you guys got–whoever posts the most in depth research–as judged by me–wins a copy of that soon-to-be-called classic book you should all have read by now! Deadline for entry is Monday morning 8am, winner will be announced at 8:30am. Let’s see if you’ve got what it takes to be a PennyStocker!

Guess Yahoo’s Monday Closing Price, Win A Free Autographed Book!

Tags: Cool Opportunities, Giveaways, Guessing Games

Since this YHOO/MSFT thing is such an absolute joke, little different from the Ashley Dupre affair and thanks to some solid brainstorming with my friends at TheLion.com, I was inspired to make it into a somewhat useful waste of time by doing a similarly themed giveaway: one free autographed copy of my book, An American Hedge Fund, to whoever guessed YHOO’s opening price Monday morning.

But since great minds think alike, and the greater the mind, the quicker it thinks, Lindzon beat me to it, offering up some cool free yoga gear.

The blogosphere ain’t about copying so to be unique / make it infinitely more difficult / random / annoying, to win an autographed copy of my book, leave a comment on this post guessing YHOO’s CLOSING price on Monday!

On Luck In Trading, Tonight’s Podcast And The Winner Of The Ashley Dupre Sponsored DVD Giveaway Is…

Tags: DVD, TIMaways

twaydvd

The good people at Random.org chose a winner for my FREE $300 PennyStocking DVD Package Giveaway that includes:

6-hour instructional DVD course
220-page instruction manual
Autographed copy of An American Hedge Fund
Priority response from me on any and all questions

And the winner is…….the editor of TraineeTrader.com! Congrats man, hope you like it. Everyone else who signed up, don’t worry you can purchase your own HERE!!!

What exactly do I teach, well, nothing short of how to profit by predicting 5-20% moves in stocks that fit my model. Microcrap and smallcrap stocks that is. With COIN tanking 8% today, VLNC surging 8% and my last 4 trades—KBX, GENC, FEED and COINW—all acting predictably, even if I only profited slightly (perfect trading is a myth, but it’s really NOT hard for you to do better than me). I have plenty of excuses for my personal failings—not comfortable, intraday meetings, etc.—none of which matter to you as this data proves my thinking and teaching is correct:

3/20 Shorted COIN $8.78, Covered $8.78 (meeting), 2 hours later $8       9% move

3/19 Bought VLNC $4.12, Sold $4.11 (uncomfortable), 1 day later $4.45       8% move

3/18 Shorted KBX $1.79, Covered $1.71 (uncomfortable), 1 day later $1.50       16% move

3/17 Bought GENC $15.19, Sold $15.35 (uncomfortable), 1 day later $17.50-$18       15% move

3/12 Bought FEED $12.40, Sold $12.50 (uncomfortable), 1 day later $13       5% move

3/7 Shorted COINW $12.35, Covered $11.34 (uncomfortable), 1 day later $6.50       49% move

 

TIM Lesson: Ashley Dupre Proves Hype Lasts Longer Than Expected

Tags: Celebrities, Criminals, Scandals, TIMaways

Now we can throw another celebrity into the Ashley Dupre mix: Charlie Sheen. THIS article inspired my good friend Fattie Mattie to craft this pic.

UPDATE: Apparently, Dupre also was close with legendary short seller Jim Chanos!! (says the trashy New York Post) Article is from yesterday, gotta do better gossip research, maybe I just don’t care anymore since there’s no stock with which to play!

dupre3some

I liked it so much, I gave it my website seal of approval—so all you starving artists out there, send me your work and I might also feature it, giving due credit of course.

PS Considering she’s a “high-class” call girl, my Spidey sense tells me the list of celebrity hook ups is just beginning. If you’re a celebrity, raise your hand if you have NOT had sex with Dupre, that line is probly shorter than those who have/will have…

PPS I notice less than 300 people have signed up for my FREE GIVEAWAY of my NO BS $300 Instructional DVD PennyStocking to be awarded to some luck soul at noon on Thursday, March 20. If that’s really all the interest out there, I’ve severely overestimated my market size! It’s 100% free, sign-up damnit!

Why Spitzer’s Call Girl Has Inspired Me To Giveaway 1 FREE Copy Of My $300 Instructional DVD

Tags: Criminals, DVD, DVD Reviews, Giveaways

timawaygoodone

The popularity of my AA Dupre article—30,000 views and counting—has inspired me to create a TimothySykes.com giveaway, aka “TIMaway”. You see that blog post is the latest example of why my trading strategy works so well—hype builds, the key is getting in early and then betting against it when it begins to fade.So, I am giving away 1 FREE copy of my 6-hour instructional trading DVD “PennyStocking” that comes with a 220-page instruction manual and an autographed copy of my book An American Hedge Fund. This is no BS / fraudulent / get-rich-quick crap (not like these bastards: Infomercial trading whizzes charged with fraud) Disgusting.
