Can Mistakes Make You a Better Trader? June 3, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily I was just talking to Mari — my first female millionaire student — and we hit on something HUGE that I want to share with you today. Mari is a great example of a student turned master who is giving back by teaching others. Mari’s guiding principles? • Grind every day and STAY HUMBLE. • Be willing to adapt. • Use trading tools to track opportunities. (Have you seen my XGPT tool? Details here.) • Keep learning every day. But when we were talking the other day, she reminded me of another vital trading tool: making mistakes. Check this out…
Love Shorts Who Make Lemonade for Longs June 2, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily You would not believe the size of the lemon I got ahold of last week. It was HUGE… Just like the short squeezes we saw last month. Short sellers everywhere got squeezed like the giant lemons they are. The crazy thing is…
8 Rules That Helped Me Make $8 Million June 1, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily I don’t mean to brag, but… I’m on a heater. I caught the big run on AKTX last week (sold too soon, but still caught it). I also nailed MNTS in premarket. This is an awesome market for disciplined traders, but still a VERY choppy one for small-cap runners. These plays don’t last long. They spike, and then they fall … fast.
Mastering the Poker Mindset May 29, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily Poker-to-trading pivots aren’t unusual … But does a poker-playing past give traders an edge? Every one of the traders I told you about yesterday says poker helped speed up their learning curve and achieve the right mindset in trading. But does that mean that all traders should play poker? Not necessarily. Even if you never pick up a deck of cards, a few poker mindset concepts can help any trader. Here are a few big ones…
Ante Up: How the Poker Mindset Gives Top Traders an Edge May 28, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily Do poker players make better traders? I constantly say I want dedicated students, not degenerate gamblers… But as it turns out, traders can learn a lot from the poker mindset — even if they never intend on actually playing cards. It’s similar to channeling the athlete mindset… Then again, I’m not a poker player, so how do I know this? Because I’ve found a pattern among several of my top students…
This Market Is Like a Buffet May 27, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily If I had to guess, I’d say there are probably 30 to 40 good setups in a day right now. It’s overwhelming. And it’s all times of day… Premarket, midday, afternoon, after-hours… It’s literally nonstop plays. The best part? You get to choose.
$12,000 in Losses… Then $1 Million in Gains May 26, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily No two trading journeys are alike. I like to say that my teaching style is like training wheels. I’m just here to teach you how trading stocks works and the basics. I don’t want anyone to copy me. Instead, I want my students to study my lessons and learn from my trades. I want traders to use my trading education resources to build their knowledge accounts so that eventually, they can develop their own strategy. A lot of people don’t get it. They just want hot stock picks.
Memorial Day: What Does Finding Freedom Mean to You? May 25, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily Remember, the stock market is closed today for Memorial Day. Let’s take a moment to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom. The practice of honoring fallen soldiers is an old custom. The three-day weekend, filled with picnics and barbecues to kick off summer…
13 Days Until the Trading World Changes May 22, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily So, the PDT rule is going away on June 4. I’m very excited about this (it’s been going on for 20+ years). But I’m also a little concerned for anyone who’s not prepared. When the PDT rule started in 2001, it was after I’d made the majority of my first big wins. So, I was WAY over the $25,000 minimum balance. When it first came in, I hated it…
My 10 Favorite AI Penny Stocks Right Now May 21, 2026 Tim Sykes Daily This month, four of the largest U.S. tech companies reported earnings. Combined, they spent $130 billion on capital expenditures in a single quarter — and plan to spend nearly $700 billion this year. Google parent Alphabet’s profit jumped 81%. Amazon Web Services delivered its fastest growth in 15 quarters. But read the footnotes.
