I really do not like giving negative comments, but after reading the book and having been an active trader for over 6 years, I KNOW this book will not help anyone in their trading or yearning for insight or knowledge. I do not believe Tim is a very good trader, but was able to take advantage of a special time in history to accumalate great returns. He tries to argue that its the regulations of the hedge fund industry that hindered his ability to raise funds and hence limit his success. After getting stuck in a very bad Investment (not trade)his limited capital prevented him from taking advantage of other trades………Well that was the blessing.

I bought and read Timothy Sykes book, and i’m extremely disappointed. I was hoping to read an inspiring tale of growth, and it was the exact opposite. It really seems like Timothy has regressed over time. I was really shocked to read that he took such a big hit on a single penny stock, a rookie error if you ask me. But this is someone who supposedly had years of experience with trading, so I don’t understand why Timothy showed such poor judgement.

I don’t want to give “Timmay” one star, as the book is well written and you can see he put effort into it. Alas, I am not reviewing on effort though, I am reviewing conent….I would have to say that in my opinion this book was all bark and no bite. In spite of it being wildly hyped and actually arousing my curiosity, I was let down. I wanted to be fair and not jump to conclusions…I read the book…and two stars is my conclusion.

I’m appalled to see that my first review of this book was deleted! I hope that doesn’t happen again. I bought Tim Sykes book hoping for an inspiring tale of excitement and financial success, and I was very disappointed. To me, it was just another story of someone who made money during the bubble, only to lose much of it back recently. The person then turns to writing under the guise “learn from my mistakes”.
To me, it’s a very old story.

This is one of best books for any person who want to make money in financial market.
No other person can teach you this much about the niche of low-priced stocks as Tim.
