I hear ya man. Am not doin a whole lot.....looking forwards to getting past this week.....goin from 90 pt ranges to 14 pt ranges is tough though.

This is brutal man....this SP range is pitiful.

You are a trip............. 4 days until GP opens......get ready to make some REAL money.

Great review of Tim's book. You basically say what most real traders think about this guy. He is a used car salesman at best. I love this quote by Sykes....my how times have changed. "I thought of publishing my trading strategies and making money from subsequent book royalties...

He had D'Tara at 38-1 in The Belmont ????????????? Come on........really ?

It's good to see these guys goin back to their roots where the did very well. Stock, commodities,currencies, and bonds. Private Equity and emerging mkt debt ,etc are obviously not the way to go and will see less and less funds getting involved. Guys like Tudor are TRADERS and should stick to...

How is Rearden....I haven't heard any updates. I hope he was able to get back on his feet. Helluva trader...and a good guy as well. As far as your figures at Schonfeld....they are off. Most didnt make 50k or wash out. I am not sure where you fell into as far as p/L.....but I was there...

Hey Nik, Most of the time I post for entertainment value. In this case I just wanted to point out that this clown is mentioning a local who has been out of the SP pit for yrs. As far as his strategy.....is the road to disaster/blowing up an account. Most good traders have a risk reward...

The 0% fee funds are out there. They obviously are the ones who have confidence in their strategy. I do know of one who hasnt charged a fee since inception and has made their investors a ton of money over the years. Too many funds seem content to raise as much money as possible and just...

Ouch....taking a pot shot at VN through a post to Surf. What kind of person does that?

I was going to address this issue...but stayed away. But....if Sykes is putting on positions, then making calls in very illiquid stocks, then covering into the move as his sheep push the stock.....not only is it a scumbag move, but he would most likely be in deep shit with The SEC...

If his audience is for the guy looking for an extra 5k to 10k a year thats fine. I just think Sykes is ridiculous with his oversized ego calling himself a trading master (he does on his site). But to go around acting like he is some sort of super trader/market guru is ridiculous. He admits...

Exactly....the guy has a flawed strategy that can only be traded in tiny size....then goes out and blabs about it. All that hard work to make 25k a year.....Sykes would be better off working the fry-o-lator at McDonalds.

Surf do you actually read what this clown writes? He is going to be in heaven when the mkt rallies? He...umm...sells into strength. Too funny...Tim and his big 2000 share orders holding the mkt down. When this mkt goes into bull mode, he will get slaughtered like he did before. He is a...

Reaver It happened again.... only guys like puretick and Surf can get me to post on here.... I am not sure who is sadder.....them.... or me.

Sykes apparently has very good returns his account in one year. big returns are great...but....his account started out with like 12k. So to work a whole year to take 12k to 20 -30k ? I'll pass and trade to make real money. One will never make real money trading his strategy....the stocks he...

One could retire fading Surf....shorting Crox where Surf covered....shorting the stock mkt when Surf said the bottom was in (9000 Dow), then covering and going long when Surf puked (7777 in Dow). Surf is a tremendous fade.

Surf Sykes is just a used car salesman. Go to his site. The guy is selling anything he can. His trading style is fine for guys who want to trade 100 shares of some illiquid stock and make 30 dollars a day. Who knows (or cares) if his trades are real. Who knows if those stocks are shortable...

Don't take it so hard surf. Your friends in the trend following world are continuing to make an absolute killing. Be happy for them. Maybe read Covel's book again :)

Buy....sell......buy......sell......... every two minutes...... This chat log is hysterical. Spectra's ad should say: "Learn how to lose tons of money scalping to death.....and while you are doing 800 trades a day....pay a ton of commission !!!" This is all you need to see....a...
