My life is going by at an insane speed — as lives tend to do. I've been here just long enough to have almost forgotten where it is I really came from, or maybe it's that I've been here long enough to have learned how to let go of "that" constant longing for where I came from. I've started to love people I once disliked or even thought I hated, and I have stopped loving some that I thought I coul

Batik artist Liz Sykes, and her husband Dave, have lived on Islay since 1974. Both she and Dave had given up their occupations - Liz a microbiologist in journalism and Dave a technical translator - to come and live on Islay and they were running a small letterpress general printing business, starting with a hand-operated Adana in Dave's parents' ex-coalshed. They also printed for tourism, with Liz doing pen-and-ink drawings for what was upgraded to a hand-fed Victorian power platen press, up the hill in Damaoidh. They produced their first 'Islay Calendar' in 1976. To expand sales to the mainland, Dave spent a day selling calendars depicting traditional crafts from a suitcase in the streets of Paisley - because their by-laws didn't require a hawker's licence.

In a stunning reversal of political trends, the latest Sykes poll has the Reverend Jeremiah Wright ahead of John McCain and Hillary Clinton if a national election was held today.Wright leads McCain by a significant 12% with a margin of error of plus or minus 4%. Ms. Clinton does slightly better with a 9% differential."If they want to run against me, I'm down with it." said the Reverend Wright. "If you mess with the bull, you get the horn."Wright led McCain among all demographic groups. White males over 30 with jobs and IQs over 70 showed a large 21% increase in support for the Chicago minister."I like the guy," said Leslie Seydel, an Iron Worker from Gary, Indiana. "If Wright says it's Easter, you'd best start coloring your eggs."Wright also led among black and Hispanic voters who would

WHOOOOOLLLLY COW. I cannot believe what you just wrote. BOOM! That prove its Timmy, you just outted yourself. HA! I love it. FINANCIAL SPECULATION BEGINS WITH DISCIPLINE! LEARN THAT. REPEAT THAT. RESPECT THAT or your account GOES TO ZERO! An account worth 5k deserves RESPECT. It deserves CARE. It deserves DISCIPLINE. It deserves TRUE INTELLIGEN RESEARCH. You are trying to spin this as me being a RICH GUY, telling the LITTLE GUY, go away, dont try to make money, ROFL ROFL ROFL.. Oh my people, WAKE UP TO THIS FRAUD aka TIM SYKES. He says it is RICH PEOPLE keeping POOR people down in the market. Another disclaimer of human error as in his CYGT Hedge Fund Blowup, claiming the STOCK DID IT TO HIM, not HE did it to the fund. 5K is GONE in one MASSIVE RAMP or CRASH in your Penny Stock world

that was just a preview of timtv, not the al the bells and whistles. Sir Dick Nigel: my business is irrelevant to the fact that u said IDXX would make a $5 weekly move ("I simply follow price and price is saying IDXX WILL GIVE UP 5$, so will MGM" to be exact) (a ridiculous--non-historically-based target, which is why i called your bitch ass out on it), thats all, stop being such a BITCH. as for leverage, i was referring to what i'd need, or any small trader would need to use to make it worthwhile...when u say: "If you ONLY have 5K, you NEVER TRADE speculatively, NEVER." i lose any and all respect for u as a human being...U R ARE PRETENTIOUS PRICK...because u seem to think financial speculation should only be done by rich people, people with a few grand don't deserve to take on risks to

Tim ... TOS account is open and will be funded in about a week. I'm looking to play the more high probability plays such as IDMI, DARA, and now PSTI as I won't be able to watch the price action all day. Too bad I missed PSTI, but there will be more. I've read every blog post and think I'm equipped that I could do it on my own, but your posting of the charts sure saves me the time. Keep up the good work! The vast majority of my retirement funds are locked up in other sissy value investments ... LOL! Trading my TOS account is going to be much more fun.

On Michael Goode's blog he says this in reference to your strategy: "Even assuming that some strategy works, if enough people follow that strategy it will cease to work." I on't quite understand it because isn't that true for every strategy anyway, patterns change etc. In the TIM approach, it's a play against the HYPE. And hype will never go away. Sure, I guess the intraday pattern might change, but there's always going to be absurd spikes on bullshit news...there will ALWAYS be a way to play that...recognize what's real hype, and go against it when the time is right, and stay disciplined. This way you don't get hurt by the bullshit financial journalists and bullshit management and their press releases

seems to me that the haters don't want to admit to themselves that everything they've study for however many years is the REAL bullshit and a waste of time, and is also a guessing games since there's too many players with varying opinions, etc. they are just scared to accept the fact that they've wasted so much time and effort and they just can not accept that profitable trading can be as easy as TIM show it to be. they still want to play the guessing game the brokers in wallstreet warriors played with SNDK.

Gotta start this linkfest off with one of the best quotes I received all week: “I’m 150 pages into An American Hedge Fund already. Best trading book I’ve read since Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, something Tim’s book reminds me of.” Comments like that just keep streaming in; I’m extremely honored—after all, Reminscences is my all-time fav [...]

Techcrunch might be right about Inspectd.com being fun and addicting, but it sets a very very very very very very very bad example. The problem lay in the fact that pattern recognition is only part of the game, you also have to understand the variables that align to CREATE those patterns. Comparing a 100% one-week [...]

In a not unexpected development, Gunner Sykes' newest independent poll shows that 83% of American voters believe that former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer resigned because he was under investigation for transporting prostitutes across state lines.23% of voters under the age of 30 spelled prostitutes "h-o-e-s."Not surprisingly, 63% of all eligible voters support the US government spending part, or all, of its productive man hours spying on people who are not themselves."If they're not doing nothing wrong, they don't have nothing to worry about," said Denise Moorehead, who is in her sixth year of study at Wabash Community College of Storm Door Hanging and Practical Arts."If the FBI wants to pry into peoples' bank accounts, tap their phones, and destroy their families in order to stop peopl

This is a basic chart pattern that seems to work again and again, you can play it several different ways, either trying to buy the bottom, short the bounce or buy the double bottom. Works mostly with microcaps and smallcaps

Yeah, I know some of you think I'm full of it--how can I trade based on patterns alone? Well, after you see enough patterns--no matter the company, technology, market environment, people behind it, etc--you begin to realize that the stock market is all one big self-fulfilling prophecy (particularly in microcaps and smallcaps).That's right, people's perception of a company's business is much more important than a company's actual business. Don't let all these fun

Ohhh, there’s a big important event this week! Wooo hoooo! Will the Fed cut or won’t they? What will it mean for the economy? What will the economy mean for the future direction of the stock market? What will the future direction of the stock market mean for my wealth? What will my wealth mean for my happiness? (See the trickle down BullShiponomics?) Please stop bothering me with this stupid topic! I could care less about the Fed

I get a lot of questions, here are my answers to five more of them. We really have to stop being so judgmental and just remain open to all strategies and particuarly to people who want to cut through all the BS and are willing to detail everything they do so they can be judged based on FACTS rather than ASSUMPTIONS

By now you should understand that my core trading strategy revolves around the daily biggest % gainers (all conveniently listed at Yahoo! Finance). This kind of price action ensures that my prey, whether it be smallcap, microcap, whatever, will be liquid and volatile, aka ideal for trading. The trick is determining which stocks will continue spiking and which ones won’t. Here my take on 4 of Friday’s spike

A few months ago, Tim asked me to review his new book that was due out on October 1st. If Tim's name is familiar to you, it may be because you have seen him on CNBC or MSNMoney.com as a commentator, or on a reality show called "Wall Street Warriors".Always up for a good investment book, I agreed to do the review, and I am glad I did.The book started out slow for me, as it goes over some of Tim's early history during childhood, and his pre-college days. The part of the book I really liked starts after he receives $12,415 in Bar Mitzvah money. That is when Tim starts to trade. This part of the book details the different strategies he employed, the ups and downs (mostly ups) of his day to day trading. I found it pretty exciting, as this is what I do every day as well. I think anyone who trades often will enjoy seeing how Tim did in the market, and how he did it. The lessons he learns, the choices he makes, etc. The time period that the book takes place is perfect, as it encompasses the

Wanda Sykes has to be my all time favorite comedian. I just recently acquired two of her stand up comedy dvd’s which would be 1. Tongue Untied 2. Sick and Tired Of the two I totally recommend Sick and Tired but just be sure that you know that these are not meant to be watched around children especially “Sick and Tired” and neither is the attached video clip (contains adult content/language) so this clip may be offensive to some. But it is my favorite scenes from anything I have ever seen from her. Behold the five minute “detachable vagina” (ok that is the nice word) scene from “Sick and Tired” Click here to buy me a coffee If you liked this post (only $3.50)

Around two weeks ago while scanning through Elite Trader I saw two threads, one titled "Will you buy Timmay's Hedgefund book?" and the other "Hedge Fund Book." In the latter thread I saw a picture of a young guy sitting in his living room wearing a shirt with an imprint, Timmay. I read the first few pages of the thread and I was laughing at some of the jokes that some of the posters made about Tim. I was short on time so I never got to finish the thread. A day or two later I received a comment and it was from none other than Tim Sykes himself. At first I thought it was some kind of sales spam because he talked about his amazing annual returns of over 100%. Sometime later I saw a positive review on Tim's book, the American Hedgefund by Captain Kirk. That piqued my interest so I contacted Tim and he sent me an advance copy.Tim started trading around 1998 with $12k of his bar mitzvah money. In his book he details how he was able to run up his little startup capital into well

Practically all the modern states of the Middle East were influenced by the Sykes-Picot Agreement. This Agreement has caused more death and destruction than any other Middle East Document. The Sykes-Picot Agreement has literally been the cornerstone of Europe's and England's Middle East policy since its acceptance and enactment in May of 1916. The agreement was originally a secret document that was initiated by Mark Sykes - a Briton and Francois Georges-Picot - a Frechman. It's purpose was to establish territorial control and spheres of influence in what is now the Middle East and other areas that belonged to the Ottoman-Turks.The various policy positions of the French and British governments on the Palestinian and Jewish issues during the 1920s, 30s, during and After World War II can be traced to Skyes-Picot and its subsequent agreements and the Balfour Declarations of 1917 and 1926. (See: Sykes-Picot) When the French and British governments decided to carve up the Ottoman

Barsuk records released the new album from Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter earlier this month, and its hard not to first be a little worn out by the lengthy album title (Like, Love, Lust & The Open Halls of the Soul) that follows an already long band name. However, once you digest that and move towards the music, its a much more forgiving process. The band that started as a duo of Jesse Sykes and former Whiskeytown band member Phil Wandscher began writing and playing together and later brought on the rest of the Sweet Hereafter, as they are now known. The new album sees Sykes displaying a more weathered vocal style and the band a more produced sound. There are some really upbeat tunes on the album like “You Might Walk Away” and “I Like The Sound”. With the latter bringing to mind a Grace Slick sound and the former with a tipping of the cap to Cat Power. But the twang that brought Sykes and company to the dance isnt being neglected in the corner and
