Earlier today we introduced you to child prodigy Christopher Davis. He was the subject of a profile in the latest issue of Trader Monthly, which mainly focused on the fact that he's only fourteen and started trading at the tender age of eleven. And that got us wondering--would perhaps Tim Sykes, thrust into the spotlight by the same magazine, which praised him for getting his start at the age of 18, and then went on to brutally rebuff Bar Mitzvah Boy, be threatened by the new kid on the block? Apparently he isn't, but he is worried that the newfound fame might having a damning effect. Sayeth Sykes:
"I think everyone should start this young, I just hope 'Trader Daily' just doesn't warp this kid's sense of values...as you know editor-in-thief Randy Lane is all about spending all the $ made from trading, preferably on his sponsors' products..."

Why does db keep plugging Timmy? He is a monumental douche.

Hey timmy i have the same sort of issue.
I am worried about the negative effects of height (and i am 5'1).

@5:56pm that's why my business card says TIMMAY MD

OH SUPER-MAYO SIZED DISS!!!

Someone at DB HAS to be sleeping with Timmy-boy cuz a pathetic loser like that doesn't warrant any news or mentions...ANYWHERE (yes, even gossip blogs such as this).

@7-- uh, hello julia allison? these people are easy targets and get you guys riled up like no other = pageviews.
Posted by TimothySykes , Sep 04, 2008 6:47PM
6:31pm shhhhhhh, it hurts DB readers' brains when they try to figure that out!
Posted by guest , Sep 04, 2008 6:57PM
Bessth,
Your Tim posts are the moral equivalent of the Mayo posts.
I implore you.
Posted by guest , Sep 04, 2008 8:04PM
The idea that anyone in the business would actually consider Timothy Sykes a trader or fund manager is hilarious. No one would. That doesn't stop retarded magazines like Trader Monthly though since their readers are all boiler-room brokers out in Long Island.
Posted by TimothySykes , Sep 04, 2008 8:45PM
@8:04pm, you're right, i only made a few million and have been profitable the vast majority, considering 90% of traders lose money...please, this is foreplay to me, all i gotta do is get that number down to 50-75% and i'm richer than god. this is gonna be fun
Posted by guest , Sep 04, 2008 9:02PM
Timmy, I know it's hard for a big successful trader such as yourself to check for coherence when writing, but please try that last post over again in English.
Posted by guest , Sep 04, 2008 9:03PM
you mean DB gets paid for e to be here?
i'm outa here.
Posted by TimothySykes , Sep 04, 2008 9:28PM
i'm not a "big successful tradeR", just a profitable one, i dont need grammar, just gotta teach people my trading rules...its a nice life, as u'll see when i post my monthly earnings from my blog next week
Posted by guest , Sep 04, 2008 10:28PM
Timmy, Monthly earnings don't equal happiness "its a nice life". Keep the flash cards handy before you come and work for me.
Posted by TimothySykes , Sep 04, 2008 10:42PM
building a publishing empire is my goal, acocmplishing that goal makes me happy...money is just a nice side reward...don't ever underestimate how much i shun judiasm in favor of objectivism
Posted by guest , Sep 04, 2008 10:49PM
bhah, "publishing empire" my ass!
you are a crazy-crazy man Sykes.
Posted by trojan , Sep 05, 2008 5:54AM

Sykes, I can't wait until the day the SEC knocks down your door to end your pump n dump scam.
Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 8:03AM

Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 9:25AM
Sykes has assburgers.
Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 10:25AM
Amazing how Sykes' monthly earnings numbers are/will be amazing, now that there is no reporting/paper trail.
Favorite TIMMAY quote is when he said he didnt lose money because of his trading, he lost because he entered into an illiquid stock and could not get out of the position.
Um, Timmay? How is that NOT a result of your trading?
Posted by TimothySykes , Sep 05, 2008 11:17AM
no stupid 10:25, read my book, u'll see investing and trading are 2 very different things...and the paper trail doesnt end, all my trading is verified by Covestor, and u really think i'd make up revenue #s? c'mon you friggin halfbrain, my whole biz is brutal honesty, not worth it to lie about anything, go back to your cubicle and make your boss some coffee
Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 12:44PM
All of your responses involve "read my book"
Noone is buying that p.o.s - just typing it wont sell copies of it, you fail
bad book is bad
Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 2:14PM
Timmay,
Can you wear a helmet cam for a day? I want to see what it's like to be the Sykesmaster.
Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 2:21PM
Timmay go f... yourself.
Russian MOB
Posted by guest , Sep 05, 2008 5:10PM
I'm going to guess what's in the book.
A whole lot of garbage to mask the fact that what he's really doing is running a thinly disguised PUMP AND DUMP operation.
Timmay, I'd like to see some of your readers up on Covestor and see if they're matching your amazing returns.
