Cilantro Fund mercifully youthanized by its 26 year old publicity ho manager, Timmy Sykes As expected, super self-promotional idiot trader Timmy Sykes has announced that he's shutting down his itty bitty, funded with Bar Mitzvah shekels hedge fund. He took the opportunity of announcing that he was pulling the plug on the fund's life support to simultaneously announce the launch of his new self-published book. Or is that a re-launch? He's been relentlessly touting it since last July, so relaunch seems more appropriate. In any case, he provides an Amazon.com link not one, not two, but three times in his page long tribute to himself. (Thanks to the reader who sent this to us early today!) Here's the first paragraph -- we can't stomach giving this pretender any more publicity than that: Cilantro Fund Closing, Read All About It In New Book Today, it is both with great sadness and joy that I am announcing the closing of my hedge fund, Cilantro Fund Partners, LP and the official release of my debut book An American Hedge Fund. Thanks to the success of my TV show, 'Wall Street Warriors', I've been inundated with questions from people wanting to know more about stock trading and hedge funds. I am sick and tired of how little the general public knows about these subjects.. Some of you might not think this is relevant to you, but you're wrong. Whether you're in finance or not, this is about protecting our right to freedom of speech. Gag. Next! Fucking loser
It's beyond sad that he doesn't realize what a laughingstock he has become in the trading world. The guy is getting ripped to shreads everywhere. His book isnt selling that well.....the only thing he grabs onto is a few reviews by bolggers that comapre his book...to.....hold on....LOL...Livermore's book. Now he is falling even farther by selling a DVD on trading penny stocks......yeah...that will be a huge seller. The guy is toast.
In the words of Canada Bill Jones, 19th century poker player, "It's immoral to let a sucker keep his money." Come on suckers, line up to buy Timmay's book. Hey Timmay there is a line starting here! Hey, no pushing in the back!!!! Where is crowd control anyway!?!?!?! Come on suckers!!!! Ass, Gas or Cash! Timmay's got your DVD!!!!
Who cares about what the trading community thinks of me---remember I've been ex-communicated LOL And, like my book, once you actually see whats on the DVD, you won't be laughing any more, but I'll have the last laugh, that I guarantee you.
Obviously you dont...because if you did you would have packed up and moved to another planet with all the shit you are catching. I read most of your book on here...rather boring...yes you are very honest....but that doesnt make it good/interesting. It's like a baseball player who bats .150 writing a book on why he can't hit.....who wants to read that? Who are you trying to pedal your DVD to? Surely not the inexperienced people you say that are your target audience for the book. That would be leading them off of a cliff. You might be laughing at the end...but that will be as you are bouncing around in a padded cell in some mental hospital. Give it up man...you are burying yourself. Close your fund....take whatever capital you have left and trade these "great ideas" for yourself. Your "media" career is already in shambles. You are walking around with a bullseye on your forehead.
Oh yeah and I like this review best--this guy compares me to Odysseus LOL: http://lloydsinvestment.blogspot.com/2007/10/have-you-read-new-book-american-hedge.html
