I was kinda basing the degree of my ‘pun’ off of that, pretty hard to top him that’s for sure.
Gonna be a wild time in Vegas with him there, no doubt about that. Hell he might even make a construction worker blush.

I’m pretty hard to offend … haven’t you noticed Tim Bohen’s (tbohen) comments?

I passed on it with no day trades to escape if it went bad.
Nice trade though Michael. Haven’t done much today but look, in the middle of trying to set up my massive account on Covestor, with my slow connection it’s taking a long time.
Ha, until you come out saying that you are entering into gays-r-us I guess I will keep signing up for shit, I have joined more stuff these last two months than I ever thought I would.
You seem like you have a sense of humor so I hope that doesn’t offend you.

You people are my heroes! In 5 years, I plan to have 30k for day trading (to make sure the PDT rule doesn’t affect me at first), a quiet office to trade in (preferably away from the house), and a ful, year-long subscription to Reaper Trades (which I’m sure will be a pay site by then

yes it was quick. I put in the best offer when it was still going up on 2.84 with only 2400 shares shown to the market and that got taken out quickly … I could’ve gotten another couple cents though.

$5.724 including commission. This’ll be a fun one to discuss on my trade recap.

Note — I removed the ticker of Tim Sykes’ TimAlert from your post out of respect for him. I don’t want his picks posted here before he publicizes them. Feel free to discuss them here as long as you don’t give out any details about the stock that would give it away.

The answer is yes. I scalped the stock Tim just bought with 17k shares and netted $1920. That stock is always too choppy for my taste so I didn’t keep any shares.
