Its impressive since he is top of the ranking on covestor with real money---this isnt simulation and he beat out the 10k plus other players. it's easy for a very very few number of people. most can't do it, and thats a fact jack surf

It's sad what people like you have turned this place into. This was once a great website filled with useful information. Then the trolls like you took over. Your shameless shilling for a guy who makes less than the mop man at MCD is simply pathetic. Barron, if I were a potential advertiser there is no way I would want my product associated with this site. Unless my product was aimed at imbeciles.
Heh heh Yep I remember that thread. I was Darkside. Surf cried and got me banned. The heat got too intense for him. Me, Woody Allen and a few others got banned as hell over that shit. That was when Timmay was actually a sponsor and Smurf was his promoter/houseboy. TIMMAY!! WHERE THE F ARE YOU!!?? Still had the pic saved from 07 lol
To set the record straight, Timmay earns 50k plus/month. he is extremely succesful for a guy in his 20's. i would venture to guess he makes more and has more banked than 98% of the people on this site regardless of age. surf
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 its a VERY limited strategy..... limited =easy Go look on his site...he is selling crap everywhere. Looks like a garage sale. Also in all honesty do you think that new traders should be screwing around in illiquid stocks ? I am not sure that is a great idea. Seriously Surf...you started this thread praising Sykes on some great performance....when you trade a peanut sized account doing what he is doing isnt as impressive...that and nobody (including Sykes) can make any real living doin it.
