In a comment posted HERE about TIMalerts affecting the patterns we stalk, Yngvai said:
You say someone should anticipate it all, but the subscriber base changes the variables that you teach.
The “afternoon fade” is exactly that. A fade, not a tank. Yes, they occasionally do turn into tanks, but the TIMalerts certainly increases the probability of that, particularly with a low float stock. Before TIMAlerts, I saw many examples of afternoon fades. Most (not all) were slow and predictable, and timing of entry didn’t need to be perfect. But the subscriber base changes all of that because subscribers will jump in at the same time. TIMalerts suddenly make perfect entries more critical, which doesn’t sound too good coming from a guy who admits to being horrible with his timing.
Maybe it’s about time you guys read my disclaimer that stresses ALL my stuff is for entertainment purposes only and this is definitely not financial advice:

Checking with my lawyers right now so this might have to be altered to protect me from little whiny bitches and I might have to give up trading entirely just to send out alerts, but I’ll do what I must…
More importantly, TIMalerts is not wholly responsible for anything–besides overestimating the wealth/unity of TIMalert subscribers, Yngvai forgets I’ve been selling a 6 hour instructional PennyStocking DVD package (check it out HERE) for 9 months now and since it’s not BS, my strategy actually works, it was inevitable that with my detailed trading success day in and day out and relentless blogging/emailing/teaching that some people would catch on so they don’t even need TIMalerts , they’ve learned to profit from penny stock volatility on their own!
Lazy and incompetent people there will always be, but never forget that there’s always someone out there who wants it more than you and that person is not lazy, that person, whoever he or she is or they are is working day and night to learn this game and not have to rely on some loudmouth prick like me.
Those of you with the DVD already know, but I close by saying “you can do better than me”. Once you know what to look for, these patterns are easy to spot. Once you learn how to research them, he variables are easy to understand.
I truly believe you can do better than me, all of you just need to learn to adapt to changing market conditions and patterns. That’s what this game is all about.
PS Both Veraz Networks, Inc. (VRAZ) and U.S. Shipping Partners L.P. (USS) from my morning watchlist as potential shorts tanked 15-20% inside of an hour (different hours) yesterday–no TIMalert was sent out as I was too busy with too much publishing crap and watching APII–that’s just how the patterns are these days and how they most likely will be, especially when stop losses get taken out.
PPS Can’t believe I had to do this post, I thought all the bitches were on sites like EliteTrader, guess trading just brings out the worst in everyone.
Now you can Twitter any questions/comments to TIMhelp and obviously you can follow TIM on twitter too!

Get em Tim! Hoooorahhhh
Tim-
I feel insulted that you only cited Yngvai’s response and none of mine in this blog. How about making your next blog addressing the points that Yngvai brought up? The larger your subscriber base, the more you’re going to manipulate a stock’s chart and burn your sheep who are too slow to hop in and out when you do.
Read my last response about your new business model. It’s pay for performance:
http://www.timothysykes.com/ti.....ment-30745
Technically, Tim, what you give is financial advice. It is just not PERSONALIZED financial advice. It is therefore protected by the 1st amendment and exempt from securities laws. Blame Lowe v. SEC (1984) for the tortured definition of advice as not advice.
http://supreme.justia.com/us/472/181/
no reaper, this is ALL for entertainment purposes only..but for example APII dropped from 3.4- to 3.20ish after my short alert went out….the bitches were whining about 20 cents…now down 45% 1-2 days later…same pattern as USS/MKTY/most of my successful shorts, the volatility of these stocks more than makes up for any slippage
Tim, it is an important distinction. Just because you say it is “for entertainment purposes” does not make it so. What your DVD is, for example, is advice. It is not personalized. That is the distinction that matters (and yes, I have a high-priced securities lawyer too, though St. Louis lawyers are cheaper than New York ones).
While you may understand that the “for entertainment purposes” is simply legal jargon that helps deflect lawsuits, the N00bs who inhabit pennystocking don’t get it. That is why some have complained that you are illegally giving financial advice because what you say sometimes sounds like advice. It is advice, but it is general advice, which is why it is protected.
From Lowe vs. SEC:
“These various formulations recast the statutory language without capturing the central thrust of the legislative history, and without even mentioning the apparent intent of Congress to keep the Act free of constitutional infirmities. [Footnote 53] The Act was designed to apply to those persons engaged in the investment-advisory profession — those who provide personalized advice attuned to a client’s concerns, whether by written or verbal communication. [Footnote 54] The mere fact that a publication contains advice and comment about specific securities does not give it the personalized character that identifies a professional investment adviser. Thus, petitioners’ publications do not fit within the central purpose of the Act, because they do not offer individualized advice attuned to any specific portfolio or to any client’s particular needs. On the contrary, they circulate for sale to the public at large in a free, open market — a public forum in which typically anyone may express his views.”
I should also point out that CAbeachbum’s “pay for performance” model is possibly illegal. It also makes his pay dependent upon the level of idiocy of his clients. IANAL, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
all entertainment buddy, no advice whatsoever
For the idiots with $1500 to trade and a shitty broker like scottrade that takes 10 minutes to execute, you will get killed regardless of Timmma hand feeds you his picks. Not only do you have to know whats going on but you gotta have the right kind of computer, a backup means of executing trades, have a plan in place, and have your finger on the trigger any time you are in the market. Without this you will lose over the long term for sure.
THANK YOU TIM. Keep ragging on these whiny bitches because they’ll be the one or two betting the farm, losing it all, then blaming you for their dumbassness…thereby ruining it for everyone. I hope you’re still able to keep trading. Its good for ENTERTAINMENT ONLY you dumb idiots
I’m starting to wonder who the whiny bitches are here. There’s a lot of PMSing overreaction going on. I never thought one comment I made would turn into a fiasco with lawyers and everything else.
All I suggested was that TIMAlerts could have the potential to affect the price action more than some here think, and that it could affect strategies and variables. That’s it. I never said TimAlerts was bad, nor was I complaining that TimAlerts even existed. Some of you waayyyyy overreacted to it.
A few guys like A agreed with me. A few other guys like CABeachBum took it too far IMO, claiming Tim was pumping & dumping (which I don’t agree with).
It’s that simple. Take it for what it is. Don’t make it into something more.
problem is yngvai, when u use words like “artificial” crazy shit happens
*****Yngvai forgets I
wrong again, i only plug my DVD every 3rd sentence :)
THE FREAKING WEATHER CAN AFFECT PRICE ACTION! JEEEEEEEEEZ LOUISE.
I agree with steve here…it does affect as within 5 minutes a huge order (long/short) comes and influence the security…but who cares if it comes in our favor….
awesome call on APII, timmy. I missed it though as couldn’t get any from TOS.
Also is it possible to send the alert late night or early morning so we can reserve the shares from TOS. TOS opens at 6 or 7 and timalerts members like me can take the advantage of reserving those shares first.
Whiny bitches! Whoaaa, this thing has gone waaaay out of control. All I was stating in 10+ posts on this blog over the last couple days is the pure fact that Tim Alerts are altering the price action in the seconds, minutes immediately after you send the alert. Immediately after you send the alert, you have 100 or more people gang tackling the bid with sell orders.
The reason why the action is not the same after you send the alert saying that you covered is because people cover at different points based onf varying levels of balls, fear, and greed among the subscribers. People know that your patterns last for days and months after you get out, so why not make that extra dollar or two even if Timmay has already covered his. People just want the entry points that is all.
This is in no way a knock on Tim Alerts or any other product you put out, so please stop this whiny talk. I’m a fuccin trader and don’t whine–I just reap money off those who do.
I admit I miss the good old days and do get very tired of every post being a self-promotion, a pitch for Tim Alerts/DVD as that gets old. I do miss the good old days with “Tim Lessons,” and posts where you went full paragraphs of interesting teaching without mentioning your products; but I realize you gotta make money too, so do your thing.
I do appreciate all the teachings and what you’ve done to spur my interest back in trading.
Brett Steenbarger’s blog does a great job of teaching without coming across as a salesman. I see you post him a lot on the Saturday Seven. Great writer too.
Don’t get me wrong…nothing wrong with pumping and dumping. I’m all for it with a hot chica on the weekend! Ok, maybe Tim didn’t pump and dump APII. Mgar is right…anything can affect price action. I think I farted that morning and whoops, some of you lost money. Sorry!
50% on APII

“APII letting all the hoopla die out, thanks , i’ll only short on red tomorrow”
This ain’t rocket science.

Omg, Tims become a Whiny Bitch who whines about Whiny Bitches.
Mike-
I’m somewhat new to the GOTS chatroom and have to commend you for it. It’s not only free, but I’ve learned a ton there from you and the others. I really respect your outlook and helping educate other through a positive approach. Keep up the good work!
Tim,
True leaders and pioneers in a field know how to take criticism like a man. They take their critics in stride. They don’t get flustered. The Thomas Edisons, the Tiger Woods, the Abraham Lincolns of the world have a vision, they go about that vision, and they don’t get bothered by criticism. They keep their head down and respond, not with their words, but with their actions.
Just keep doing what you do, which is teaching. Put the namecalling, criticizing aside (unless it is a pump and dump of course!) and keep doing what you’re doing. Posts like this today are a distraction to ur long term plan which is to teach “idiots” like me how to make money; in so doing, turning this fradulent industry upside down.
Wow, someone stole my name! I have more bucks than u though.
Why don’t I have any Timbucks?
Do you sign in Tony? If not, you need to. And if you are signing in, you have an old account before timbucks and need to make a new one.
Without Tim and his site none of you would know how to do what it is that you do. I too posted my take on how things are done, recognizing that yes Tim does help his odds when he buys, hypes his buy with Tim Alerts, then sells once everyone else adds to his short thus price gets slammed down. The thing is…it only appears that he is pumping and dumping but what is really happening is he does the homework, and based on TA and the obvious B.S. hype that makes an otherwise crappy companies’ stock explode up he shares with others what he has found. All of you shouldn’t be relying on his alerts as much as I think you do. I haven’t ordered any of his products but I assume from testimonials and by doing a little homework myself, it isn’t that complicated a strategy to implement on your own. I don’t know because I don’t get alerts…but they should be used as tools to help people recognize what it is Tim is looking for when he shorts these stocks. So you can, after doing do diligence…find your own to short. Yes there will be many examples of when you would want to short based on an alert. Well…if you do…you need to be on that shite, not lazy. Ever hear of stop losses or good entry points? This is a tricky game this market…things happen. So there will be times on an illiquid stock that his alerts could influence the price big time assuming every Alert subscriber shorted at once. But whose fault is that? Why would you short a stock strictly on someone else’s strategy. See an alert go out on a stock lightly traded, know the volume of many Alerters shorting could affect it and then whine because you get burned. I would think Tim’s Alerts have made more money for people then lost. Tim keep it up. Although I don’t buy your products…yet…I do come on here daily because I am entertained and have learned a great deal just from your Live shows and blog posts. Don’t let naysayers get you down and what you do is not illegal. If it were, then Cramer’s alerts would have landed him in jail ages ago.
Wow, this site is supposed to be about trading and all we do is wacking each other for the last 3-4 posts. Souldn’t we focus on trading and stop bitching? I know a lot of stuff happen on timalerts subscribers only website but still, I think we can do better than that. Focus.
IMO stop focusing on trading all the time, and come play some Call of Duty 4.
Tata-
Thanks…and great point. The GOTS chatroom is free and has way more educational information than Tim’s blog, alerts, bitching, etc.
Tim’s a sell-out and has no time to focus on educating people anymore. He’s too busy trying to pull a Jim Cramer by hawking his products every 10 seconds as well as becoming a flash-in-the-pan celebrity. Seriously, what does his blog from earlier today have to do with investing or helping educate investors. Read it for yourself and read my take on it in the responses: http://www.timothysykes.com/ti...../#comments
Pathetic! How is Tim any different from K-Fed at this point? Both are wannabe celebrities who people don’t want to see in the spotlight!
yall need to just shut the fuck up and bank. Idiots.
For anyone interested, check out this site and a review from one of Tim’s Tulane friends regarding his products he hawks incessantly:

I read Sykes mediocre hedge fund book since I knew him at Tulane, and like him as a person. However, the book is an empty and uninspiring story about how Sykes became a self-absorbed irresponsible stock trader. This book is NOT a
33 greenspan
Right the f on.
So many walls of text O.o!
For a second I thought I was on a Yahoo message board, then I looked at the URL in my browser
OK,
here is my watchlist for tomorow;
GWDC, MDII, UPFC, SANM, UCBH, PRS.
Peace.
beachbum what a moron, you’re quoting my 1-2 haters with the same IP addresses, hey, maybe now u’ll qualify as my third, welcome to the club, dont be offended when i block your spam u when u inevitably get too annoying
“Tim
Omg Tim, who bought you out? I didn’t hear about a takeover.
I really enjoyed your book but what the hell do I know? Most of the time when I read financial books I lose interest and quit halfway through them. I read yours straight through in one day. Twice!
mike, i dont assume most people are idiots, they prove themselves to be that way…i was nice for a while, but when u keep repeating the same lessons over and over, it gets old quickly. if your stuff gets popular enough, u’ll see what i mean.
it has nothing to do with maturity, its patience and i’m all out…especially when the very people i try to help think i use fake aliases and manipulate prices.
Still no Timbucks
samurai, my impatience bought me out, no more mr nice guy, i dont need $ badly enough to deal with some of these “people”
Tony did you read what i said?
I agree with Tony in that I liked the book too. Many people will like it, some people won’t like it…that’s the name of the game. No book is going to be enjoyable to everyone.
i’m done taking criticism, pioneer, LOL, man, i’m just gonna focus on showing people how i make $, u’re gonna have to deal with my attitude cuz i’m just sick of many of these peeps who think they can tell me how to act…if they dont like it, they can go to hell aka less experienced traders & people who perform worse than coin flipping
testing timbucks?
Yeah! Timbucks!
Wow 126 bucks, your ballin’
Tim you should make a commercial for Tim Alerts.
I’ll give you a good idea.
“Help, I’ve shorted and I’m in a short squeeze, All senior citizens should have Tim Alerts!”
Tim-
I’m only citing what other critics and friends from Tulane said. I haven’t read your book. I’ll make you a deal. You send me your book for free and I’ll write up a critique of it…an honest one! If it’s good I’ll tattoo your message boards with my praise! But if it’s along the lines of what those two critics said in my post above, then I’ll be blunt about what I think. Deal?
