Twitter Me Your Guess For The Dow’s July 31st Closing Price & Win My PennyStocking DVD!

Tags: Cool Opportunities, Cool Products, Giveaways

OK, here are the details for my latest PennyStocking DVD giveaway contest, in honor of my mom’s birthday last week and Twitter, whose infrastructure I believe to be the future of internet communication:

To enter, you first gotta follow me on Twitter (click HERE).

Then, you gotta direct message me–meaning in the Twitter text box, you gotta start off a message saying “@timothysykes”–with your guess as to what the Dow Jones Industrial Average will close next Thursday, July 31st.

And in case any Tweets get lost, leave your guess below in the comments section of this post, along with your Twitter username…so it’ll look like

http://www.twitter.com/timothysykes

Dow 11,720

That’s it. The closest person wins and if there’s a tie, the person who guessed first wins…so don’t wait until the last minute to vote.

And just in case I haven’t promoted this PennyStocking instructional DVD package enough, besides it being a 6-hour 4-disc DVD set of all my most important trades, good and bad, lessons learned, variables and chart patterns I’ve learned to focus on over the past decade, 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 $85,000 this year already, saying “…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!” and of course making $6,500 the other day solely due to one of the patterns described in this DVD!

And the latest PennyStocking expert, Mike, who made $14,000 the other day alone, saying “I’m no expert, since finding you I’m a “Timpert”. Never shorted successfully till you came along and turned on the lightbulb!”

And of course reviews like this:

See TraineeTrader’s thorough independent review HERE

“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

    Guys - only put your guesses here with your twitter name - no point guessing otherwise. Best way to actually win the dvd combo would be to log onto twitter.com - if you don’t have an account, get one! Then add timothysykes as a friend and send him your guesses.

    And Fantom, the winner will be announced on friday live on LIVESTOCK - hence the thursday deadline.
