Although I have seen his named tossed about a great deal here on ET, I really have no idea who this Sykes guy, and, more importantly, I don't care.

But I notice that threads about this guy are often started by people who claim not to like him (granted, the one-post OP on this thread is quite likely a shill) .

If you really don't like him, then don't talk about him -- skip giving him free PR. Any press is good press -- PR is the lifeblood of snake oil salesmen.

Same goes for Cramer, stock_turd3r, and the other similarly irritating characters.

Well said JangoFolly!

We all love Tim - that's why he's always mentioned on these boards and that's why ET is so popular... you think these forums would be anywhere without Tim's help?

Long live Tim - remember, visit: http://timothysykes.com/ every day for your daily dose finance gossip and shenanigans...

PS: I really am NOT Tim - check my IP address if you can... I'm no where near New York and/or related to Tim - just a big mofo fan.

God you're a homo.

sigh...

I don't know exactly where you think these forums are, but if Tim was instrumental in getting them to this point then string him up.

On the other hand, it is nice to have someone to blame.

I'm sure by now everyone here has heard of Timothy Sykes - well, check out his latest crap post: http://timothysykes.com/

Now wonder he was banned from here!

Nice try, but I didn't click on the link to give you another hit to help your ad revenue. You need to get serious about the market and forget about sales. The era of the paid guru is fading fast now that there is an internet to dig up all those failed market calls. There was once a day where you could call for a armageddon like crash year after year after year and still get people to pay you for that wisdom. It's pretty much over now.

I never flamed you over your ridiculous postings and braggadocio on this board because that never really bothered me. I'm a descendant of generations of Appalachian Protestant farmers and soldiers so I never got a $12K Bar Mitzvah check handed to me. I got no inheritance at all, so I have to work for every dime I get whether it's speculating correctly on the price direction of a stock or by frying fish for a weekly paycheck. The world doesn't really hold a fry cook in high esteem, but neither do they a hustler.

I hope your dimes turn into dollars.

Just a small sample of the really great 'body of literature' TIMMAY left behind on ET! (Bold emphasis is mine!)

Basically all these stocks move like a pendulum, great ups and great downs. It sounds easy, but it's not, thats why you need to have experience or learn from somebody with experience because each play is different and you need to be able to predict the mutations.

The funny thing that you guys are gonna find out is that the plays that created my fortune keep happening, even if I'm too undisciplined to properly take advantage of them.

I can't raise $ because all my friends and family were right there with on CYGT so they don't look likely to give me any more $ anytime soon.

I could care less about the Wall St. community, ever since I told a few people I don't do coke, I've been on the outside anyway.

Nothing I say is a recommendation to buy or sell securities and should never be construed that way. All my posts and articles are for entertainment purposes only and I will not be held responsible for anyone else's gains or losses.

Actually I can trade these strategies myself, but it's just not scalable enough to continue to devote my life to.

Now that I've become conservative, I can't do that anymore so the big gains are out of the question. That only leaves little potential gains for me or for people I decide to teach.

I definitely am a battle-tested fund manager and for giving helpful advice and telling wild stories, that is the key.

Ha, my friends and family all invested in CYGT, thats why they no confidence in me and I don't blame them.

The key is that my strategy simply isn't scalable, so the best way for me to profit from it is to teach thousands of other people to get involved,

I could care less about being known as a good or bad trader--I've repeatedly stated I'm not a great trader.

Seems like only yesterday!!!

Hugh,

You're the kind of trader I have respect for. Not these moronic prima donna jackasses that run around trying to be like the metrosexuals in Trader Monthly or kissing Timmay's ass, etc.

Ignore those idiots. Guys like us know the reality of it all, no matter what clowns like them say.

Talk about nostalgic man. That's just a piece of dust in my eye. I swear.
