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.

No, all my results are audited and I detail EVERYTHING behind my turning my $12,415 Bar Mitzvah Gift Money into $1.65 million in 4 years—while in college, then becoming the #1 Ranked Short Bias Hedge Fund Manager (Barclays) 3 years running, then losing 1/3 of it due to a lack of discipline (ignored the rules of the strategy I now teach!) and have now come back a bit with my #1 ranking on Covestor (out of thousands of inveastors/traders).

Check out some reviews:

“I found the DVD extremely useful!!! It’s a keeper…I have learned a lot from it.”
- G. Marquez

“I learned a lot, and I’m sure your target audience will learn even more. A great way for an investor to gain many years worth of knowledge, without having to make many years worth of mistakes!”
-Peter Leeds

“Thank you for producing this wonderful DVD. We trade similar stocks, but I’ve always made my money on the long side of the market. I can’t tell you how impressed I am with how your work. These new strategies have helped me in my trading as I now short some of these stocks too and it’s worked out pretty well so far, thanks again!”
- Jim R.

“I have to thank you again for your DVD, I almost made three times the money for it today with an account about your size…The advice is good at least for me so far and I wish you the best of luck but I hope to beat you to your previous record.”
- Gary

“This is by far the most complete instructional guide I’ve found. I have no doubt in my mind that this will improve my trading.”
- Tony

Those who’ve followed this blog or bought these products know I’m one undisciplined SOB and while I’ve had a lot of success, this has prevented me from taking my trading past a few million dollars. The good news is a lot of people would be happy with a few million dollars. More importantly, I honestly believe you can do better than me. Think of me as Archie Manning and you guys are my children—I want you to win the Super Bowl rings I was never good enough to get!Basically I just share everything—what’s worked, what hasn’t, why this strategy is ideal for traders and investors with small accounts, why you don’t need to watch the stock market every second or even every day, difficult lessons I’ve learned over the years, what pitfalls I think you can avoid, etc. It’s even understandable for those who know little to nothing about the stock market (actually having a blank slate might be better).To enter, just leave a comment on this post with your name and email and a winner will be announced on this blog one week from today, at noon EST, next Thursday, March 20th, 2007. You can only enter once, but if you’re a blogger/website operator, you will get 10 entries if you repost this post/contest—with all my little promotional links included—on your blog/website! (Hype, baby, it works!)

    Yo Tim, you know I’m already your fan, as evidenced by my comments on Covestor, and you know I need this DVD so I can have a ghost of a chance of emulating your success. I love your in the face commentary, and can’t wait to see what you’re going to say or do next. Yes, transparency is critical, and without it, all the rest is BS. Thanks for this chance at fame and fortune!

    March 13th, 2008 at 5:33 pm

    wow tim you are pathetic, so basically what you are saying is she deleted all of her friends off of her facebook.

    Then out of the BLUE decides hey in the midst of this whole scandal and everything in my life going batshit crazy i think itd be a good time to start talking with TIMSYKES who i have never met or have no previous experience with.

    Anyone who reads this who is not a figment of tims imagination you have been warned you really think a guy who bullshits like this is someone you want to do business with??

  102. 102timsykes

    March 13th, 2008 at 5:37 pm

    mike, u like most of my moron haters think i’m into lying. u dumb POS–my whole business model is based on brutal honesty. i put up a post, somebody linked to some facebook group of hers, she started messaging me. who knows if its her, who cares, its funny, grab a drink, have a laugh, stop being such a typical finance snob

    Your parents must be real proud of your “honesty” everyone can see just how “honest” you are.

    You are nothing more than a failed trader who now has to resort to whoring himself out for attention anyway possible. Your story is complete and utter bullshit, and everyone can see it except you.

  108. 108timsykes

    March 13th, 2008 at 5:48 pm

    actually mike, my parents are real proud….and if u did even the lightest bit of research, u’d see for all my mistakes, i’m 30% off my highs. booo hoooo. greatest lessons i ever learned, only cost me a few hundred grand. worthy every penny as they’ll serve me and now others for the rest of our lives.

    PS up 32% since november, wait, according to your definition does that constitute failure too? lemme guess, u’re gonna say its on a small amount of money, right? well guess what, most of the people out there don’t have a lot of money, they need someone to show them how to do it from scratch. stick around kiddo, u might learn a thing or two!

  109. 109mike

    March 13th, 2008 at 5:52 pm

    yes up 32% since november on an account size most people would wipe their ass with does count as failure.

    If you really had any talent or any edge WHICH actually worked with more than your piss ant 100-200 shares you would be doing it.

    And please dont tell me to “stick around” and learn a thing or 2 my good days are bigger than your entire TIM account, and i unlike you have never had to resort to pathetic scams in order to generate hits onto my shitty site.

    …ok..so what does a girl have to do these days to earn something..(ok so i know..the spitzer girl practices the oldest and most profitable business there is..but, lets say it, i’m not half as hot as she is :P)
    I have put a bit of money aside (18th b-day, work, bla bla) and..though i’m a business major, and a girl (which means i would love to spend all my money on shoes) ..i have decided to invest. lovely huh! another business student who doesn’t know a thing about finance! yep. thats me. i also think that since i’ve been wise enough to not spend the money in shoes and bags and all that stuff which would make it easier for me to just find a rish-ass husband..now i actually have to PROFIT from my wiseness or..i’ll be a peniless, shoe-less girl.
    and that..my dear tim..would just push me in the hands of the oldest business around..not the stock market :) and yes dear tim..you should feel guilty if I don’t win this DVD and book to help me out ;)
    Best.

    haha typical snob answer, i love it! thank for not caring about the little guys, people like u are the reaosn why there’s sooooo much opportunity to teach people like them. u just don’t get it, people with accounts between 2-50k have little no idea of how to grow it consistently, other than investing in mutual funds, which would give the 32% over 3 years if they’re lucky. 32% in 5 months, with my ridiculous amount of mistakes–all detailed for everyone’s learnings pleasure–is the kind of “failure” many people would like to have

    big or small, 95% of trader lose, with my rules and lessons in place, over time, i don’t. just take one opportunity at a time. advantage sykes

    The mutual fund argument has to be the dumbest comment i have ever seen, inorder to work your “strategy” one has to actively participate in the market this also means that they must watch it full time, so i suppose none of the “little guys” have any expenses, you better fucking hope not because you have made 2000 dollars in 5 months which will be taxed as trading income not cap gains. a.k.a. highest tax bracket.

    I sure hope all your suckers can go atleast 5 years with no money cause that will be the only way you will grow an account sdoing what you are doing, and if they do happen to succeed good luck finding shares of or else being able to take on significant position sizes in microcaps, this is why you were forced out because it doesnt work. Giving your strat to hundreds of people will only help fuck it up even more.

    Keep up the good work Tim, the DVD would be appreciated… I love the haters, its the same old BS every time. It’s easy to post an anonymous rant about how shitty TIM is. I have yet to see one of them sign onto Covestor and show us who they really are. Put up or shut up, plain and simple.

    Tim Ive been following your success since WSW, your book, and now your blog! What Ive been missing out on is your dvd. I want it! I need it! Im a rookie trader with a small account, but every erengtxpert was once a beginner! Your dvd will only help me make money. I hate losing and I love winning and I want to be a more successful trader. I want to make more money and making money is extremely addicting. With your guidance and now a dvd, it only strengthens my desire to be a better trader. You’re a great teacher Tim and one day, the student will surpass the teacher! Thanks for all the great lessons Tim. PS…please overnight deliver MY new dvd so i could study it right away! Thanks.

    mike wrong on just about everything again–my strategy works best just a few times/month. i write every day to keep people apprised of potential plays but in no way shape or form should they trade every day. who cares about taxes, its about growing an account and this is the best way i know how to do it–in any market condition

    there are no goals but if people can make a few extra grand each month or get good and make more with few trades and most importantly no leverage, u’d be surprised how many want that. u forget people waste money at the tracks, casinos and trying to trade random crap like RIMM, GOOG

    don’t hate the game, hate yourself for not doing enough research before opening your mouth

    Hey i sent you the email about CVSC just before the collapse. Too bad could not short it.
    I am new to the stock market. i am a newly unemployed and thought i might take some advantage from the stock market. so far with no success :)
    So the DVD and the book might help.

    another load of shit from Sykes

    you dont have to trade every day idiot but you got to be paying attention to the market, otherwise the times you are “just twice a month” you will miss the plays you find plays cause you watch the market full time.

    Oh and by the way only trading twice a month is another sykes lie, you are in atleast 5 times that many every month.

    “Who cares about taxes” need i say more?? you are an idiot, and you do not live in the real world, unlike you real people have to pay taxes, it isnt even close to a mutual fund because you can allow funds to sit in a 401k in the states or an RRSP in canada and you dont have to pay the tax on it till you cash out this is a huge advantage over your shitty system. As you dont got to drain half the gain every year.

    You are pitching a pipedream and a shitty one at that.

    For anyone out there who reads this you should strongly consider going the prop route or learning from a real professional tim sykes is nothing more than a conman who will be a first class ticket to the poor house if you get involved.

    March 13th, 2008 at 6:34 pm

    oh and btw in february you made 17 trades which is almost 1 every single trading day not one a month, so that is another one of your horseshit lies.

    Your pitch is totally lame if i won this DVD i wouldnt even use it as a coaster.

    You are telling people you made 35% in 5 months trying to scam newbies who think they can do nothing and build an account into millions doing this.

    You are a flash in the pan who happened to fluke out during the tech bubble. Nothing more nothing less.

    March 13th, 2008 at 6:51 pm

    1. I made 17 trades cuz i’m an undisciplined SOB, l earn to read–i write about the ones i shouldnt be in all the time.

    2. i made m first million during the bubble yes, but my second came after in 2001,2002,2003, 2004, 2005–all of which i made over $50k each year, take out my bad year 2005 and all of them I made over $100k each year

    3. flash in the pan–c’mon mikie, gimme a chance, thats why i’m saying stick around, i got nothing to hide, still trading like i always do, now i just teach too. hey, no hard feelings, even though you’re a complete prick, i’ll let u listen in on the class, i’ll even get u some nice new clothes so u don’t stink up the place being homeless and all!

    Hi Tim,
    Bought your book, would like to have your DVD. Follwing all your posts. Concerning Spitzer and Kirsten, personally I don’t think it was a that great deal except part of the act was illegal. If he was in Nevada, France or Germany, he would have been just fine! Looking forward to receiving your email and DVD in the future :-) Cheers.

    Already read the book & watched the DVD but hey, can’t beat free! As for Mike, get a life and if you’re so much better where are you’re posted results? How long did it take you to make your $1.65M? Sorry you must be a value investor..and and are still waiting. You came to the wrong site. That’s not what Tim’s niche is all about. Tim- move on. He’ll have nothing to say when you’ve Britney Speared him. “Oooops you did it again. $1.65M” Ya MIke -I ‘m a follower who’s also done my research and has sucessfully learned from what he’s doing for this market.
