man, all i wanna do is teach people who don't understand how penny stock work / are losing money because of it the rules to the game, as i see them. i've had my ups and downs and now feel qualified to preach a rather conservative trading strategy that i believe is ideal for smaller investors. my calls are getting better (VM short at $4 on friday alone) and my site's popularity is taking off because of it. u guys can say whatever the fuck u want, i'm just gonna keep doing my thing and let my numbers speak for theselves

AJ are you fucken kidding me saying my fund was a fraud? Fuck you and the SEC--it was my fault for getting away from my core trading strategy, but in no way did I ever make up #s/falsify documents, rip investors off...in fact, most of my investors broke even, the rest are down 20% (you forget we had 2.5 solid years before the 35% drawodwn--and I do intend on making them whole...just wait
PS I love this fucken market, die cockroaches die, my traffic, sales and short selling strategy are all booming, love you incompetent fucks!

You're damn right I'm gonna give my view on this regulatory bullshit! Don't make me brag about how I was the #1 ranked short selling hedge fund manager 2003-2006. Oops, too late! :)

sorry AJ, I buy stocks too, gotta adapt to profit from all environments/regulations...
and why would you wanna rid the world of lil ole me? I'm just trying to cut through the BS and open this game up to the little guys...or maybe have I struck a nerve where you make your money from propagating such BS/shitting on those little guys? If so, I look forward to ridding the world of you dinosaurs

Fuck my ego and fuck you too...this is about freedom to use whatever strategy you want, especially those that people look down upon all due to assumptions. Go check out my verified trades on Covestor, maybe that'll help teach you why I'm so determined:

rules are not only fine, they are necessary, but when the SEC tries to step in and help, exposing thm as the ignorant, incompetent, lobbyist whipping boys they are, we gotta speak up cuz shit ain't right

1. For what I'm trying to do, assets don't matter--I'm gonna help the poorest investors/traders learn to not lose they normally. You forget 90% of traders lose, thats a big ass market
2. Of course I haven't made more than a few million--I hate leverage and I'm only 27, patience grasshopper
3. I don't give a shit about my name or myself--it's called branding. Also, it's not arrogance, it's experience--I've seen pretty much all there is to see in the microcap market, I feel qualified to teach
4. Morals in microcaps? C'mon, read my blog, this is the shadiest market niche around, the good news is manipulation is predictable--its the gift that makes it so unique
