Will you buy timmay's hedge fund book?

Timmay will your book be available at bookstores like Border's and Barnes and Noble or only on your website?

 

Street Addict or whatever it's called by Crazy Cramer was entertaining. The guy can actually write.

 

So far I have deals with Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and several other e-tailers.

EXACTLY, trading is entertaining, if written properly....Speaking of which, here's yet another positive review for my book from another quality blogger:

This is hysterical...

My question is, why would a "quality blogger" (LOL) even bother to write about the threads on this website?

This "quality blogger" must be one of Timmy's romper room friends from the restaurant episode on Wall St. Warriors (Yes, the one where Timmy says "If I'm up or down $50,000 dollars in a day, I don't even notice".....yet that same afternoon Timmy's mom had to change his diaper after losing $1000.)

LMAO.....Timmy is a snake oil salesman of the highest caliber.

 

Just posted this comment on the blog, but I'm not really expecting it to be approved because the blog author seems fairly dumb:

Why don’t you mention that Tims fund has made a whopping 1.5% compounded return for the last 4 years? That’s why people call his earlier streak of money-making luck. Do you call a 600 lbs man who lost 200 lbs in 1998-2003 a weight loss genius if he’s been unable to lose another 200 lbs since and still weighs 400 lbs.?

If you do, your credibility should be questioned as you’re making a comparable mistake in lauding Tim’s gains, or lack of.

 

It's really funny....I mean, no matter what at the end of the day, ol Timmy is just another failed trader ripping people off and making up stories about himself and how great he is. I mean Timmy, J.L. killed himself when he blew up...what's stopping you if you're such a parallel to him?

No matter how much money you make on books, you will always have to look at yourself and know that you are on the outisde looking in, and you're ripping people off.

There are little pissant people like you all over the place lying and bragging about themselves concerning things that never happened, or embellishing stories to the point of ridiculous proprtions....That's cool Timm(g)ay, because I may not run a *ahem* fund, but at least my money, which is all I am concerned with- is made from trading-.When I call myself a trader I am not lying....maybe not as special as being a hedge fund (lol) manager...but hey- it is what it is.

People like you are the scum of the earth.

 

1. The term hedge fund gets thrown around a lot--let me educate you, its just a simple legal strcture that allows for great investment flexibility. It has its advantages and disadvantages, no different than an LLC, LP, or LLP. My fund may be small (which I time and again admit), but it is structured as a hedge fund.

2. So now I'm the scum of the earth? Why? Because I want to help people avoid my mistakes? If it's scummy to want to help others, then I guess you're right--somehow I think you have your priorities mixed up.


3. I've never met this blogger before, I only contacted him because I'm contacting all the most popular finance/trading blogs. I wonder how many positive reviews its gonna take for you guys to wonder if you might be wrong about my book.

4. Making up stories about myself? Please enlighten me as to ANYTHING I've ever said publicly that isn't true. You make that kind of agressive statement, you better be able to back it up. Let's see what you got

 

Please refer to previous posts calling you out as to the BS you are spewing. You are a weasel. period. You are embellishing and flip-flopping and doging.

Say what you want. But I am not here to argue with you about little technicalities of why you "technically' aren't bullshitting people.

Normal, decent (read non scammers) people don't use doubletalk.

This isn't a trial, I am not a lawyer arguing with you about technicalities. The previous posts on this and the other thread you have going on are evidence enough.

Sorry bro, but you're a clown and you're just like all the other losers that try to mislead and tout yourself as a guru.

P.S. Why are you trying "help" people with their mistakes? Why are you on a pedestal compared to any other trader? Seriously, that is my issue. You are nothing special...just because you raised a bunch of money to trade with doesn't necessarily make you any better than anyone else who trades with less money. It's pretty much scalable. More money does not equal more intelligence or mentorship characteristics. Dude just get over yourself and trade if that's what you're good at.

 

I am the co-writer of thetradingdigest.com blog on trading. I formerly wrote for the dayvejohnson on the markets blog.
Having been asked to read the pre- release book and send my opinion to Tim - I did. It is the story of what he has gone through. The stratospheric rise - the difficult times since - the simple yet effective tactics he used to take less than 20k to 2 mil - and all of the emotions in between.
Fun book. It's not a trading manual in any sense. But the story of college kid that traded his ass off during those extremely volatile times. Some lost money. Some made money.
We gave our opinion. Whether you read it or not is of no concern of mine.
Maybe I missed something. Why do we hate him?
As to why we would reference an ET thread on the blog.....it is full of instances of horrible discipline, psychology, and lack of a trade framework.

Considering you're calling me a scammer, embellisher, dodger, and flip-flopper, this kind of is a trial. Good thing you're not a lawyer because without any evidence to back up your claims, you're pretty much screwed. Sorry buddy--I gave you a chance, but you only came back at me with some name calling. Nonetheless, let me address your concerns:

1. I'm on a pedestal only because of the TV show that never stops airing. I'm now receving upwards of 50 emails/day from young investors/traders, wannabe traders, etc.--this book is my way of answering everybody's questions once and for all. I've written in a brutally honest way to help everyone see what it takes to make 100x your money, whether its luck, skill or a combination of the two, and what I did wrong that has so many people claiming I'm "a failure" or that I've "lost most of what I've made." In others words, I'm setting the record straight.

2. I never asked for all this attention, it was thrust upon me. My trading is probly no different than many other traders here, but since people want answers from me, I'm going to share my thoughts. The gains I've experienced and lessons I've learned along the way are applicable to all traders and really anybody who starts their own business.

3. I could have written one of those BS "How To" snakeoil books and probly made a lot more money, but I truly do want to help people so I didn't go that route.

4. Let me just repeat this --I am brutally honest--no embelisshment whatsoever. I hope to start a trend in this business because there are too many people who brag about their gains and never talk about their losses. Talking, thinking, and writing about your losses is helpful, traders need to stop being so stubborn (and petty) so we can help each other and push each other to learn and better our trading. This is not a sprint, the more you learn, the more patience you have, the more time you put into thinking about each and every trade, the better you'll do. Trading has been my #1 priority for the past decade--all I'm offering is my thoughts and experiences because I practice what I preach
