Two Great Book Reviews And A DVD Review To Boot!
I absolutely love getting emails like this:
“Tim, I just wanted to thank you for An American Hedge Fund and PennyStocking. My boyfriend was the first to read your incredible book and now my boys, Charlie, 6, and Julian, 4, can’t get enough of it; they make me read it to them every night! And your DVD, oh my, it’s so taught us so much; so now we’re not afraid of any recession because as you say “you can profit from betting against companies managed by all the idiots on Wall Street!” And thanks to your strategies, we’ve already made a few thousand dollars in one month through short selling some of these surging microcaps! So, thank you, thank you, thank you, you’ve changed our lives and I’ll be forever grateful!”
Sincerely,
Michelle Casey
And check out the hilarious pics that were attached:
Not to be outdone, I got another great book review from a highly respected investment advisor, Ulli Niemann, aka The Wall Street Bully. Besides having a badass blogger nickname, Ulli advises his clients in ETF and mutual fund investing so I really had no idea how he’d take my wild journey. Guess it’s a good thing he’s a big believer in The American Dream! Here are some of my fav quotes from his review:
“Here’s a man who definitely learned from his shortcomings and is willing let the world know about it by sharing them in his book.”
“The knowledge he gained from several years in the trenches represents wisdom that I have found also applicable to the world of trend tracking.”
“Any trader or investor should adhere to Tim’s findings. This book is a fast and fun read, and I couldn’t put it down.”

TIM
POZN
up almost %40
do you recommend shorting into biotech/drug when their drug is approved by fda in any phase?

pozn is drug news, downside much less
smi nice drop but couldve easily had news forcing u a big loss, focus on high percentage trade,s not just every trade that comes around

hey tim… i’m still stalking FEED and BEXP looking for a good entry point (to short)… they still on your radar?

Got your book and DVD coming in the mail as we speak…it can’t get here soon enough. I just began trading three weeks ago for the first time in my life and have steadily seen profits, only to hold too long and watch them fizzle. I’ve been attracted to options because of the leverage they allow, but they’ve been kicking my a$$ this past week. Down half my account so far…Show Me The Way, Man!!
Glad I found your site last Friday.

ryan everything’s still on my radar, the setups just arent there…yet
JIm, hope i can help, this aint that tricky a game once u put rules in place

April 16th, 2008 at 1:28 pm
aw balls looks like FEED just cracked…
9timsykes
April 16th, 2008 at 1:34 pm
feed can’t “crack” today unless it goes negative, this is just consolidation…trying to make $1-2/share is much easier when there’s $3-4 price volatility, trust me

haha thanks for the advice, i think i’m just trigger happy sitting in this boring cryptography class right now (not a good strategy)… ill remain patient

Level II shows there are people waiting to short BEXP at $9.50 and $9.60, if it gets there, than people buying it today. Not moving much at the moment. Tempted to short but probably not ripen yet, right Tim?
12timsykes
April 16th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
i short when strong stocks go negative on the day, not when they lose or add to their daily gains

Tim, I finally ordered your DVD today, do you send me a tracking email with that from UPS or whoever you use or is it through the mail that you send it.
14Charles
April 16th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
POZN showing little weakness, anyone ready to dive down with me?
15timsykes
April 16th, 2008 at 1:51 pm

nice afternoon fade on KOG daaaaamn
17Davey
April 16th, 2008 at 2:01 pm
Might wanna reshort KOG towards the end if it doesn’t fall too much from here still near yesterday’s entry 2.75 and it’s the second day of relative weakness
18ViciousChicken
April 16th, 2008 at 2:02 pm
Damn this KOG is pissing me off.. Keeps bouncing off $2.70 like a rubber ball.. I have no patience..
Tim I think I’m going to buy your book this weekend. I’ll probably order the DVDs soon as well. Thanks for all th insight, it’s great info.
Any idea on when you’re going to post that Level II how-to you were talking about a week or so ago?
19bryan
April 16th, 2008 at 2:03 pm
yea I hung in there bc KOG didnt hit its stop at 2.90 i do have patience…
I figured you would like POZN timmay…looks like your classis pattern I figured you couldnt stay away from it for at least .40-.50 cents a share. im bout to pull the trigger
20timsykes
April 16th, 2008 at 2:04 pm
problem is i fly right back tomorrow and KOG is one that requires some nice timing cuz u’re all going for a 20-30cent/share drop but thats the risk of a spike too, risk-reward, especially when travelling aint worth it
21timsykes
April 16th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
gonna have a whole back to basics week of posts coming up
22timsykes
April 16th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
POZN i’m still resisting though, couldnt take out 13.70, even if it does, it could spike back and again i wont be around tomorrow morning so these scalps plays aint gonna work
23tyler
April 16th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Good deal, I am looking forward to kickin this markets ass, been struggling as of lately, can’t wait to learn the real rules rather than trying to get bits and pieces here and there. Thanks man, maybe you could give me a special note in the autographed, American Hedge fund book, haha take care

Tim
Is CNOA or SCRA of any real value in the next several weeks. CNOA has really been jumping. Also CROX is now below 10 as I feared or hoped it would be. any thoughts?
25bryan
April 16th, 2008 at 2:12 pm
POZN is cracking
26Charles
April 16th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
POZN resistance around $13.40-$13.50 area in Level II. I will cover in that area for a nice 0.50 in 1000 shares shorted at $14.01.

And I’m out at 2.68… I have too much to do this afternoon then to keep an eye on this. I made $10 after commissions… I’m my hero!!

Timmay I think im finally getting the stalking thing down…I was correct on hplf, POZN, SMI, and KOG(thanks to you pointing it out.)…that makes up for the mistake on GEECF…but you cant win em all o r else id be the house dealing blackjack

37Tony Rambone
April 16th, 2008 at 3:55 pm
1 minute before close gonna put a buy in for POZN. Easy 1 point gap up potential at tomorrows open. These drug stocks always have second day spikes. If no spike then sell at the open for small loss.
38Tony Rambone
April 16th, 2008 at 3:56 pm
POZN received a price target upgrade by Citigroup today a 2:30 to 19. Do not short this stock unless you want to get burned. Never short strength.
