My Friday trades were nothing huge, but they each provide some useful lessons, about Friday morning spikes on crazy Supernovas like GEVO and, more importantly, about controlling/limiting losses when those spikes fail like CRON's morning spike did:

Thank you!
very useful ,I Like video lesson on Sunday , The more video you do on small detail like this , the better we get thank !!!
Video lessons for both small and big
Hi Tim, I would love to hear from all your trades winning or losing as we can all learn from both. Seeing how you stick to the no.1 rule of cutting losses quickly, especially if the stock cannot even hold it's gains for the day. Even I learn't from Friday spikers and giving them a bit more time if they are still green on the day as I made $60 on ABIL on Friday :)
Thanks Tim honestly enjoy every video, don’t want to stretch you thin but slowly internalizing everything is key in my opinion. Very appreciative of everything you’re doing!
What is Tim's surprise that he's gonna reveal next week? Can anyone guess? He seems to be quite excited about it... May I guess?...............
Good Stuff. Frankley it would be GREAT for all of us to understand the mindset for every trade. Thank you.
I like this type video lesson. Aim small, miss small.
Small trades happen more often than the big wins, so personally more videos like this imo. Though big win videos here and there would also be nice!
That was 10 mins well spent. Keep them coming doesn’t matter how big or little to me I still found value and learned something
Thank you Tim! I continue to learn from you. I’ve only traded ten times now and made one very large mistake that has put me back not cutting my losses. I tend to learn from my mistakes. I don’t take it as a bad thing as I needed to see how bad it can get. I have now made two small good trades and see many good things ahead! I love this and appreciate your brutal honesty!
Great notes to add to my Friday rules. Please keep these reminder lessons coming. Thank you Tim!
Friday morning spikers...and cut loses quickly if the trade goes wrong...I like your confidence,the way you teach, so please don't change anything...Thanks Tim...
Good Video....Thanks
Yes, keep explaining all of your trades. This is so valuable to us newbies.
Thanks Tim
Great lesson. Please keep these types of lesson coming. How to handle losses and how to execute winners.... both are equally valuable.
we want every and anything we will learn from......thanks
Hi Tim, I would really like to listen to all your trades and the rationale behind them all regardless of size and profit margin. It is really educational to be able to pick your mind. Thank you!
Very useful lesson, both small and big thanks Tim! You know what’s useful you’re the teacher I’m the student I just watch and listen thanks again
very lesson. this master TIM,, thanks
GOOD*
Thank you Tim! I loved this lesson, please continue more lessons like these! Really good reminder to remember to rules and not get discouraged by small losses.
All your vids are helpful demonstrating your solid strategy, follow the rules, keeping it REAL as always. Thanks Tim!
Please continue videos with basic lessons, these so helpful! Thank you, Tim!!
I enjoy every video lesson, no matter if it's a big or small win. Keep up the great work mentor!
Keep doing this type of video lesson. I think reinforcing the rules and setups over and over will eventually get it into our heads.. Thanks.
Thanks Tim
Perfect lesson. I’ve been following Friday spikers. Not profited yet but understanding it. Thank you.
Yes Tim I like these videos with bunch of tips and it helps me a lot
Tim, all lessons are valuable! and you are right hammering some basic rules into our heads over and over again. keep it up!
I like these kind of videos a lot I need a constant reminder to keep disciplined
All trades.
TRUE AND ALWAYS MORE VIDEO ARE MORE USEFUL BOTH KIND OF VIDEO
I would like to hear more about the "rules" I am just starting so I may not have gottent to the "rules" just yet. Thanks
These are VERY useful videos; please keep making them! Thank you!!!!
Great wisdom Tim! Think these little lessons are very valuable. not being distracted or discouraged by the wrong things is very important.
This was an awesome video, trades didn't do what you wanted but we got a good look at your thought process as to why you bought
Excellent Tim I admire your ability to cut your losses quickly, one day I get there 😊👍
Very impressive, never cut my losses quickly resulted further loss or sit on it for next spike. Learning to quick in and out plus cut loss factor. Thank you again
Tim, the more knowledge that is out there is helpful. Show trades that require fast loss execution and how long to hang on for a gain. Great to see so many examples. John
Thanks Tim we really appreciate the time you take to teach these subtle details <(•^_^•)> Thank you
Keep them coming!
This was one the most affirming video lessons for me.. I made the same exact trade Friday morning that you did on $CRON except mine was SLNO. I bought into resistance thinking it could break out. It was a bad trade because it was up so much already but your video taught me it’s ok to be a little more aggressive on Friday AM if I cut losses quickly. Great lesson very helpful
Thank you Tim - always useful information
Yes, they are all helpful. The more learning and the more repetitive the better!!
Great video lesson, Never ignore rule #1, great trades
Timalerts subscriber here. Love the video lessons on your thinking for small trades. More please
Awesome thanks Tim the more content the better eventually I'll get a hang of it
More Videos Thanks
Great lesson, with good and detail explanation. Thanks!
Small/big - win/loss. To me all video lessons add ton of learning, thanks for doing them, On the other hand don't be frustrated with idiots that just want a ticker to trade...
Thanks Tim,Great lesson.
I made 200 dollars on ABIL, 50$ on the early morning bounce and 150$ on end of day bounce. Thanks :)
Love the small trade video's with explanation of what went right and what went wrong. Also the situational events like this being a Friday situation!
Thanks Tim, i enjoy all your lessons.
Thank you! Great reminder, having a difficult week off of a great winning streak since December, what am I doing wrong you may ask? Forgot to enforce rule number one on the quick side... I need to make that stop happening after winning streaks...., your rules are great.. I just broke one 👍
Good lesson
Basics are the platform for small and big trades. Thanks for the video lesson!
Great lesson! The "everyday" lessons are the ones that help the most because those are the ones we deal with the most.
Love this short lesson with lots in it to process.
Love to see more breakout videos in the current market.. Profit Or Loss is secondary
yes, do small and big....very helpful to watch this....
Pretty good video. Thanks for the distinction on when to give it extra time and when not to
Thank you for the video. I’m so excited because I recognized the difference in those two stocks. Was watching both and your trades too. So many things are making more sense to me now after my first year.
Anything is appeciated Big Tim! Got a good laptop now and about to try SST. Let's do this!
Provide videos that deal with both. We don't know what's going to come down the pike. We have to be ready for whatever happens, not just we want to happen. Keep a mix going.
These are the type of videos I need! Thank-You! Keep it coming!
Very useful! Please keep them coming! I learn a lot from these... Maybe the folks that are not complying to your rules should take a step back or even a day off! Aim small, miss small... Cut losses quickly!
i love big and small videos
Thanks Tim! The info are very useful. I’m really learning a lot. I make about $60.00 on GEVO my first trade.
Little gains all the way!
Thx Tim! It'll be great to document all your trades big/small wins & losses on good setups or lower graded setups
Hey, Tim. I caught $GEVO too. So impressed on all the things that you do for ppl around the world. I enjoy these videos just like how you have been doing them-it feels more real. Also like the camera shot too.
Thanks Tim. I think these types of lessons are super important. We all have to learn how to think and act quickly in the moment a trade is not going our way. I believe there’s more to learn from the losses. That’s how we grow. If too easy, we set ourselves up for much bigger losses down the road.
Thanks Tim. Please continue to make videos like these. Thankful for all your hard work to make us successful students. Any video that explains mindset is a lesson we can benefit from.
Managing the downside is more important than big gains in my opinion. l prefer these videos, they teach you how to keep your account which is needed to make those big gains you speak of.
Thanks for your Help Tim. I would ask a favor though. could you Please watch your laguage a little more? I have Grandkids around and Thanks. Good Luck in all you do. Congratulations on the School openings and Medical centers that is Fantastic.
Thanks Tim The videos are the best...Keep them coming please please..
Thanks Tim, these videos are great. Love the big gain videos too. These kinds of videos are great examples of how doing the little things like understanding your environment, the day of week, the stocks position 'red/green' on the day, following the rules, all play important factors in the odds of a successful trade.
keep them coming! make like 10 a day
this is super useful!
No volume right now. I do not know why.
I appreciate videos on a trades, big and small.
Ty Tim, I am still working on Rule #1 and its finally sinking in!
I would like to continue to see lessons of all trades with the explanations you provide , thanks for the lesson
I want videos on any type of trade so I'm well rounded when a trade comes along I know what to do no matter how the chart looks.
Video was useful continue to make similar videos.
Yes Tim, do video lessons on trades like this! Big or small, there are lessons to be learned.
Thanks Tim.. All your videos are usefull and whether it applies to current past or future there is a lesson in everyone one of them..
If Tim can go both ways so can I. LOL. Videos on losses (big & small) & gains.
Discussions like today's, where the rules are clarified.
Please keep the training videos coming. I’m learning a ton
Useful
Useful
✌️to lose is not bad, but if you learned something from it!👌
Thank you, All types of videos please... Win/Lose, Big gains/Small gains, Small losses but never big losses otherwise you've broken the rules!!
yes keep the trades small please
Basic rules
Great post Tim, thank you! Videos that generally show your thinking and approach regardless of size are most helpful.
Please keep doing this video lessons especially the bad trades so we can learn from your mistakes and what not to do.Thank you Tim
more videos on these scenarios please, like yoda says "THE GREATEST TEACHER FAILURE IS". This teaches us to be flexible enough to focus on the "in the moment" reality, no hold and hope mindset, take what the market gives you in the moment, you can always get back in if the set up fails but sets up again when you get out safe. More real videos are great, thanks Tim.
'small' trades too!
Please continue to develop videos on taking small singles. I have a small account and these videos are extremely important on emphasizing that it’s a marathon and not a sprint. Additionally these videos keep me motivated on studying and encourages me to stay focused on learning and building my small account. Thanks Tim!
more like that
Hey Tim. Keep these small gains on dip videos coming! Good opportunities to grow small accounts a little at a time! Thanks!!
Good video Tim!
Thanks so much. I learned a lot here.
very useful
Yes I like it when u go over a day like Friday it help me thank u
Yes I like it when u go over a day like Friday it help me thank u
Your videos are always helpful and encouraging.
Thank you!
I was surprised you didn't cut GEVO too -- so glad you made this video to show the difference in thinking between the two. More like this, and more on cutting losses quickly! Thx Tim.
Thanks so much! Small trades too please!
Small trades are the way to go. Steady gains build to great wealth. Love the sort lessons!
YES, Video lessons on small trades! Great lesson on when to give it time and when to cut losses quickly
Do continue to make these types of lessons.This was very useful, thanks
I'd like the small trades and basic rules please.
Small trades - win and/or losses for us newbies
small trades, thanks tim
keep these coming they are invaluable ... of course we wanna learn how to win big but these strategic rules are the ones setting us up for the big gains ...thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5:40
Keep it coming Tim. really helpful all the re-enforcement for cutting losses quickly. Its so easy to hang around and give a trade "time to breath" when really your hoping it will go your way, when really you should cut that loss and get out quick. Such a hard thing to do efficiently and quickly -but im getting there..
Yes, please, more videos on small trades with lots of lessons
i love short videos like this one, where you dont talk about your personal life and whine and complain about your personal life or your students...
this video is solid money tips, because we come here to make money not to hear bullshit... just to hear how to make money.
I like the small stuff because I'm starting out and that's where I'll be active, so this honest dialogue is great
Please don't only share big wins or losses, these videos are really important to see what sort of daily trades happen. Cheers
Keep em coming Tim! Every bit helps!
Thanks Tim
Friday’s is a special trade day stocks act different. Cut loses quick to stay in the grind. Keep a positive attitude if you lose focus on how to improve not the loss
This was incredibly useful for me. For a while I was a little confused on how to distinguish between a solid dip buy and "catching a falling knife," which I think you clarified very well when you noted the difference between quickly cutting CRON and letting GEVO test support for a while longer
Keep the videos coming on all your trades. It's very helpful to see the beautiful, the good, the bad & the ugly. THX!!
Thanks!
I want to hear both. Maybe big wins more because I like to see the patterns, setups and entries that you see. Thanks Tim!
Small trades are good to see as well as large trades. It's the setups that I like to see. Thanks Tim!!
All trades. Speculative, perfect set ups, small losses, big losses, small wins, big wins. Anything to give me more repetition on what to do and not to do. Thank you!
when ever you can get the thought process behind a trade to stick to your rules is always a good thing thanks Tim keep it coming study study ,study
every trade is a education, a learning curve. More so the smaller ones. Keep them coming youngster. tnx
I like lessons on any kind of trades, that's how you learn. Adapt the rules to your use, be smart about cutting loses, like you did here Tim, it was smart to get out when you felt it wasn't going your way. Great lesson, Thank you.
Video lessons on both small and big!
ANY WAY TO MAKE MONEY AND MINIMIZE RISK TO THE MAXIMUM. I'D BE HAPPY TO MAKE $100. Unfortunately have to risk my whole freaking account.
Hey your rules are clear to most. How about listing rules specific for the video up front. Then in the wrap up, tell you met these rules.
Keep it up; small to medium sized stocks and trades.
very useful those small tips and observations help refine entry and exit as well as discipline, want more of this
Awesome lesson, like the message...I have been guilty of not cutting losses quickly and over-trading
I want to see it ALL! Thank you! Seeing it all helps so much more!
Teach me the rules
I think you should do videos on both the rules and trades where you have big gains and losses
Teach The Rules Whether Big/Small Gains & Losses! All Very Useful!
be more aggressive on Friday cool tip...i always want MORE video lessons
I like the small trades with basic rules. The more rules and tips, the better I will become.
Thank you Tim. Good reminder for the rules.
It is a solid system, just follow the rules. Don't focus on the wrong things, it is about gradually growing.
Thank you Tim.
Knowledge facilitates growth.
Thanks Tim - more of the same please :)
these are the kind of videos i think that helps to inprove your understanding enjoy them ,,,thanks
Content was useful and I could relate to it so that was good.
Keep making them! Thank you Tim!
I want more please. (oliver
Love your videos. Watching one after another until I succeed!!
My music mentor told me every time you sit at the piano or organ your learning, keep the lessons coming. We don't just need to learn patterns we need to learn the process. Part of that process is small losses bigger gains... small accounts will become bigger over time. We need to be patient and focus on education as beginners. Thank you Tim. Keep the video lessons coming small big or otherwise.
I like the little ones, as I am learning from the begining
I like the little ones, as I am learning from the begining
Thanks T
I love these videos ! This is the reality of the process ! I love this kind of video just as much as seeing big gains/losses. Thanks for everything Tim :)
Great lesson thanks
Please keep them coming!!! Every video lesson I learn a new kernel of knowledge and have the previous ones reinforced. I worked in a hospital where every year we had go through these competencies that all of us grumbled about, but I realized every year I got reminded of things I had forgotten. These videos are building blocks of repetitiveness that will become a mantra in our brain! Every time I enter a stock “cut losses quickly” goes through my mind. You are succeeding!!! I am getting it!!!!
Please don’t change anything 👍
Great lesson Thanks!
watched and learning.
Cut losses quickly - - so important to learn.
Useful! In marketing, the Rule of 7 requires that a prospective customer must hear something at least 7 times to act. Like a small child learning to say "thank you" through repetition, students like me need to hear these small lessons for small accounts again and again until it becomes action and then, with good practice, hopefully good habits.
1. lose well & manage losses. don't let it go out of control and destroy your whole account
thank you!
very useful - I want to learn from you and enjoy you talking about your thinking process
I want to see all of them. I like the small gains because my account is so small.
All of the videos are helpful. I'm grateful you have so many of them to watch.
Dollar amount isn't as important as the strategy,
Good lesson
Thx Tim
Thanks Tim!
thanks.
Good lesson, thanks Tim. Slowly starting to understand dipbuys in more depth
Thanks Tim its all good
Thanks Tim, I prefer seeing all trades whether big or small, lose or win, to help better understand your mindset. Thanks again for the lesson Tim.
I prefer to see as many trades no matter size or gain or lose
I really wish i would've found you 10 years ago, my life would be so much better....thank you for all of your teachings coach
Like the EF Hutton slogan I listens when you talk Tim. Thank you for everything you share with us.
Any lesson you teach will be great Tim!!
not all have the means to do bigger trades, keep posting great info!
Video watched. Thx Tim.
Thanks Tim... :) love'n these videos
Hey Tim - All the videos are great, basic or not!
useful video, small trades matter, whether wins or losses, make videos on everything you think is beneficial, they all are
Love this video show awareness and flexibility like an athlete love the cut loses quickly solves so many problems.
Hello Tim, I am a newbie and I believe each video serve a purpose whether it's shorting, patterns, etc. I need them...
keep making videos of everything. I will watch them all.
I'm a sponge wanting to learn everything so videos on both topics would be awesome.
Thanks! All trades are worth learning about
Thanks Tim!
• Stocks have a higher chance of spiking again if it occur on a Friday morning and spiked big. • Safer to be more aggressive in dip buying and buys on Friday mornings. • Save Day trades for Friday. • Spikes during Fridays go up and down in seconds.
i like it all! Thanks!
Yea more !!
Yes I would like more vids on these kind of small profits or losses! Thanks Tim
Thanks Tim!
awesome friday morning spiker
Video watched. Muchas Gracias Tim.
tks Tim Good lesson
Thanks Tim
Thank you Tim
Keep going with the small trades thanks Tim, the more angles and different situations the better. Good to learn what can potentially happen given certain set ups 👍
Keep them coming.
Thank you
Yes more videos
I want all types of video lessons. Thanks Tim
All videos are good videos
Friday stocks can spike a lot and that if it does not spike the way it should we should just cut the fucking trade as there will always be more opportunity to trade
Thanks Tim, I am encouraged by all your video lessons
So useful cheers Tim
Thank you.
Showing the small losses/gains are more important in my opinion. I like the repetition of seeing a trade getting cut when the setup doesn't play out exactly how it should. I think that is extremely important.
Thanks Tim!
Watched thanks
Thank You Tim! I Got IT and keep making the video lessons if you have the time!!!!
Th
Thank you Tim.
BOTH........
up in premarket ,when a stock proves it can spike big it can spike again, look for support for dip buy, Friday mornings more aggressive on buys and dip buys
waiting for a convincing breakout with news is ideal so when its failing to hold its spike, can't hold a 10 or 20 cent gain on the day , don't give it more time! Thanks Tim
Yes! Yes! Yes! more lessons!!! Love studying these more than trading actually
Watching And Analyzing!
