Brown, Executive Director at Morgan Stanley, Author of The Poker Face of Wall Street"Sykes proves that in addition to his extraordinary gift as an entrepreneur he is also a very fine writer, able to communicate his dream and his reality with a forceful, compelling style that will find an audience among those who wish to understand the seeming conundrum of the Stock Market." -- Grady Harp, Top 7 Reviewer"The most realistic portrayal of the risks, rewards, joys, frustrations, exhilarations and the depths of a trader's life since Reminiscences of a Stock Operator." -- Craig L Howe, Faulkner and me, Top 500 Reviewer"This is the first book I'd give to somebody if I were

Good Read Jared I read the mixed reviews on this book before purchasing it, and after having read it, I think that perhaps the negative reviews are motivated by people not entirely understanding why Tim wrote the book nor what was going to be covered in the book. Tim uses this book to 1) tell the story of his personal success in the stock market, and to 2) give his opinion . It takes guts to lay yourself bare. I like to read books by or about successful people and turning $12,000 into $1.65 million counts as success in my book. Tim's detailed description of his trades illustrate his trading method quite clearly. He also did a lot of research to find his trading candidates but the research methods are not explained in any detail.The book is not just about the tradi. Albert S. Harper said A great Book. Mr. Timothy Sykes explains all the trials and tribulations he had in forming an Hedge Fund. He does so in a way that permits the reader the ability to do well with penny stocks. This book was so interesting that I could not put it down. Today, I received lesson 7 and I can hardly wait to get home and attentively watch it, take notes, and start paper trading
This `Rocky'-like story is the first realistic look at the world of stock trading and hedge funds-it will educate and inspire everyone.. Timothy turned $12,000 of Bar Mitzvah gift money into $1.65 million trading thousands of stocks from 1999-2002, managed the #1 Short Bias Hedge Fund from 2003-2006, starred in the television documentary Wall Street Warriors, and appeared regularly on CNBC all before the age of 26. $2 trillion is invested in the hedge fund industry, and yet, due to industry regulations, the general public knows little about them. This book will change everything. It's been a wild ride
