Yup, I like stocks that move 50%+ in a day, not this 10-20% crap…remember those of us with small accounts must use our trades wisely, since I suck at timing, I need volatile plays to give me room for error–after several solid weeks, none of these can really compare, suxxx…patience young Skywalker
NNVC is looking like a sweet breakout at $1.50, I thought about buying but I couldn’t tell how much was real and how much was TheTechnicalTrader.net’s influence as he bought near the close and many of his plays are fakeouts at first/take days to play out…not to mention a massive wall of sellers at $1.50–meaning probly still gonna be time to get in today if it looks strong
QBIK had a nice continuation rally, not up enough to short, too late to buy, another missed play by this entertainer
BQI shoulda woulda coula bought this when I mentioned it again and again on Friday, but I, like most of you, am a horrible timer so I need $1 of upside to justify getting in, just didn’t see it…then it was a good shorter for 30 cents too…scalping is not for me, but congrats to those of you who banked
VHC is a patent play that won a small victory against MSFT Monday night…already up, gonna be interesting to see if this gets any more continuation…I’ll probly stay away or at least reserve shares to short and wait for an afternoon fade…just in case
LGDI breaking out above recent consolidation to a new closing high…call me cynical, but I’d like to wait for a real all-time high at $5.05 before buying into such a gigantically priced stock, think $800mil sketchy company
It was either gonna be recent spammer PGOG or HYHY to drop big yesterday after each had a down day…PGOG it was, these spammers are scary man, patterns evolving, not always dropping like they used to, recognize
MYEC an awful lot of people are short this since DoublingStocks.com picked them…not the typical pick as it also had earnings, would love to see a squeeze here
TGC is consolidating, watch out for a potential breakout
Now you can Twitter any questions/comments to TIMhelp and obviously you can follow TIM on twitter too!

Boring week so far
Hey Tim, not sure if this is doable by your web guy, but is there a way to change the default from showing 40 comments per page (or whatever it is) to show all? I keep not noticing comments because I don’t pay attention when they go to a second page, plus when I refresh a page, even after I clicked “view all” , it always goes back to the 40 posts view, and so I have to then click “View all” again. Am I the only one that has that problem?
Somebody get ctx
I can’t get any shares,
Tim the check will be here Friday.
I want ctx destroyed!
good week to work on me not being so pasty white and be tan like superman!
i’ll ask pcola
CTX is utterly and entirely irrelevant to what what i focus on
NNVC wall is getting thinner.
Timmay I just jack the bank; wb
Ha, how’s that for a real company
i chcickened out on NNVC, what a wus… u guys in?
god why do i have such problems buying total frauds?!?!?! i guess ignorance truly is bliss
I’m in Tim with 500 shares long-o
Seems like doubling stocks is a nice spammer to follow for short picks. Especially if they get a lot of followers to actually buy into their stock.
I got a new idea. Spam and promote the spammers and promoters so they get more suckers to bring the volatility. That way you’re not spamming stocks and manipulating stocks you’re just empowering more spammers to bring more buyers to inflate companies that can’t sustain their over priced stocks.
I’m in NNVC.
PGOG would have been a nice short on Friday. Down another 15%+ today. Congrats to those who played it.
Think of the motto, “Kepp your friends close and your enemies closer.”
i couldn’t get pgog reserved in time to make a good play on it.
Scottrade is screwed today, tried to get in FMD at $4.09, f#c#ing thing was sooooooooooo lagged, the site froze until FMD reached to $4.33
Winner
Scottrade sucks, I know, I’m there. But not after Monday.
You’ve got spam. Get ur Visa, Visa, the only way to the Olympics!
leh is having big problems now bebe!
I’m going straight to the bank with this. 50!
SOLARS are going crazy- I still haven’t figured out the pattern… when I buy in- they suck- when I short- they fly up- so I don’t even touch them any more…. I wish I held my SOLF a little longer, than the next day… sold to early
hey Tim, if I sign up for a month of TimAlerts, do I get 1 month from today, or would I just get the rest of June?
CHQ, boring but looks like breaking out.
been extremely boring. I took the afternoon off yesterday and played some golf. I may buy some NGAS if it can breakout.
Hey you guys check out ASTIZ? Ive been riding its momentum since yesterday and so far it has legs. check out ASTI also.
Pcola TIMalerts begin the day u sign up
http://www.timothysykes.com/timalerts
yes CHQ breakout, i’ll probly wait for the afternoon, not sure it has a big day in it
so few plays, really gotta be careful on NNC and CHQ, all the traders are in it at breakout points, all trying to scalp 10-30 cents…all contrbuting to the breakouts…so theyre not natural, meaning without the traders, they probly were double tops
LEH is my play…I am short @ 27.00
Funny how this worked out. I actually believe NNVC has a chance at becoming a real company some day. I owned a handful (125) of shares in my IRA and had a standing limit order for 875 more. I decided to up the limit so I could ride the potential breakout. I’m in 1000 NNVC with a DCA of $1.4625.
Now the question will be if the breakout only goes to 1.75-1.8 do I sell and take some profits, or just hold long term like a had originally planed. With my luck if I sell at $2 the next day they will announce they’ve cured HIV and the stock will soar to $300..
I didn’t cover MYEC, I was squeezed yesterday but willing to risk it… still short now, back up … It’s only a matter of time…
I don’t want to risk not being able to find a short again… my avg is good enough, I’ll let it ride for a little longer
KYUS just about toast
RPDM what a turd yesterday, very shady
LBAS shortable but who dares?
NNVC beautiful break of $1.50, chart is nice
FMD $4 was a great break
GTE Breakout on expensive Pump-n-dump?

Okay, just tried to sign up but got an error from paypal when I hit “submit”. Tim, is there a way for you to see if it went through on your end so I don’t end up paying twice if it’s already gone through?
I have been watching LBAS since last week– and every day it’s hitting new highs…. that stock is scary
going up! bought 100 IVAN @ $3.22, will try to ride it up then sell when y’alls start getting in short. Rock on and good luck to all.
ABAT breaking out on volume and I have no idea why..
BQI moving up after a slow start . still in from yesterday
yes pcola, i can refund if u pay twice
Al, loving BQI, similar to IVAN, oil sands exploration, own them both. Goin’ up!!! But not very fast, IMO, you’ll have to stick with it a while to make bank.
Out of SOLF at 22.81 from 18.60 entry last week.
Out of PEIX at 2.65 from 2.26 entry last Thursday.
Holding TSL and LDK, two other solars, for 44 price target.
Imsmith
that’s one of the plays for the year!
Hey guys;
Is that my Visa in your wallet?
Fantom, you have been mentioning Visa over and over, I don’t get it! Are you short or long Visa?
Visa is feeling the credit crunch like a ant bite. Long all day.
It shot out the gate, mellowed out, now I’m waiting on the breakout.
In the 70s-80s now. Soon you’ll never see under 100 a share again.

The Market Fantom
I thought he was foreign, and trying to get into the U.S. :)
Dumped OMNI and ROYL for $.10 losses. OMNI is a slow mover historically and ROYL has no direction.
Adding more STSA at 6.50 from original 6.75 purchase yesterday. Max 1 week hold on my plays.
Tim, short CPSL Here?
LEH down she goes!! for days to come hopefully, I will be holding on to this short
Tim, any thoughts to giving those who’ve bought your DVD set a few months of TimAlerts? I just got the package yesterday and have almost finished with the book… power failure left me some time to get some reading done. Good stuff.
In JBLU at 4.01 on the break of 4 resistance. Easy $.20 cent scalper by tomorrow morning. Airlines all trending up.
