·1· ·think every trader should utilize, because that is what

·2· ·I believe makes StocksToTrade.com the killer application

·3· ·that it is.

·4· · · · Q· · So, Mr. Sykes, let's -- we'll talk more about

·5· ·these companies as we roll through the chronology.

·6· ·Okay?

·7· · · · A· · Okay.

·8· · · · Q· · So let's go back.

·9· · · · · · ·When did your interest in stock trading begin?

10· · · · A· · I mean, as a child I was always interested in

11· ·the stock market.· But at first I wanted to be a mutual

12· ·fund manager, a longterm investor.· So I'd read books

13· ·like, you know, about Goldman Sachs, about Fidelity.

14· ·But I was injured senior year of coll -- of high

15· ·school -- sorry -- and I had surgery on my arm, so I

16· ·couldn't play tennis anymore.· And I had these two casts

17· ·on my arm.· This was 1999.· The stock market was going

18· ·crazy.

19· · · · · · ·So I took my Bar Mitzvah money, my parents

20· ·gave it to me, they thought that I would lose it all and

21· ·that would be a good lesson, and I put the $12,000 into,

22· ·I believe, E-Trade and Sure Trader at the time were the

23· ·two brokerages.· And because I had this longterm

24· ·investment mindset, I invested in Boston Celtics, Super

25· ·Cuts and Viacom were my first three stocks, I believe.

·1· · · · · · ·And the account really didn't do anything for

·2· ·several months.

·3· · · · · · ·So the stock market, like I said, was going

·4· ·crazy in 1999 and 2000, so I gravitated towards trading

·5· ·stocks.· I couldn't afford the expensive stocks at the

·6· ·time, like Yahoo and Netscape, so I gravitated towards

·7· ·trading lower stocks, lower priced stocks, penny stocks.

·8· · · · · · ·In senior year of high school I made a little

·9· ·over 100,000, which was crazy to me because, you know, I

10· ·grew up in a middle class neighborhood.

11· · · · · · ·Freshman year I made over 700,000.· This was

12· ·year 2000, at the peak of the NASDAQ mania or bubble.

13· · · · · · ·And so then from there I was just hooked.

14· ·When you can make, you know, roughly $800,000 in two

15· ·years as a young kid or a teenager, that was -- that got

16· ·me, you know, really focused on trading.

17· · · · Q· · Okay.· And then we talked before about TLC

18· ·Media.

19· · · · · · ·Was TLC Media the first company that you

20· ·formed in relation to your interest in -- in trading,

21· ·stock trading?

22· · · · A· · Well, Cilantro Fund Management was the first

23· ·company, because I went from high school trader to

24· ·college trader to hedge fund trader.

·1· ·listening to this video down the line that may not be

·2· ·versed in stock trading, what is a hedge fund?

·3· · · · A· · So mutual funds are more focused on longer

·4· ·term investments.· They can mainly only go long.

·5· · · · · · ·Hedge funds can go long or short, and short

·6· ·meaning, you can bet on lower stock prices, you can bet

·7· ·against the companies, which was my primary strategy

·8· ·back then.· I was a short seller.

·9· · · · · · ·So I started the hedge fund in order to

10· ·basically raise more money.· I used the money that I had

11· ·made at the time before I graduated college, it was

12· ·nearly $2 million before taxes.· It was, like, roughly a

13· ·million dollars after taxes.

14· · · · · · ·And then I started taking on investors,

15· ·friends and family money, and my hedge fund got up to,

16· ·like, $3 million, which in the grand scheme of things is

17· ·very small, but for me it allowed me to trade with

18· ·greater capital and I was going long and short.

19· · · · Q· · Okay.· By the way, do you have any training in

20· ·writing software?

21· · · · A· · No.· I don't even know what programming

22· ·language looks like.

23· · · · Q· · And how about, to your knowledge, does Zachary

24· ·Westphal have any experience in writing software?

25· · · · A· · Not that I know of.

·1· · · · Q· · Okay.· Now -- all right.· So you went on this

·2· ·hedge fund.· When did it end?

·3· · · · A· · So for three years I was the number one ranked

·4· ·short buy fund.· But, you know, again, short selling was

·5· ·very tough when you're trading low price stocks.· It

·6· ·wasn't very scalable.

·7· · · · · · ·In the fourth year I went for, you know, a

·8· ·homerun.· I invested in my best friend's dad's company.

·9· ·They basically invented print-at-home ticketing. I

10· ·thought this was my entrance into the bigger leagues,

11· ·rather than just running a $3 million fund.

12· · · · · · ·As is usually inevitable when you get involved

13· ·with technology companies and family friends, that

14· ·company failed.· I lost basically a third of my hedge

15· ·fund, lost all my industry credibility.

16· · · · · · ·But at the same time I did this tv show called

17· ·Wall Street Warriors, which was a reality show and they

18· ·were basically documenting me in my trading.· And that

19· ·show was taking off right as my hedge fund had lost

20· ·30 percent.

21· · · · · · ·So I got invited to speak on CNBC.· I was, you

22· ·know, writing for the Street.com, MSN Money, AOL.· So I

23· ·started becoming public.

24· · · · · · ·As a hedge fund manager back then you weren't

25· ·allowed to really talk about your performance publicly

·1· ·to non-accredited investors.· I know the rules have

·2· ·changed now.· But back then I was trying to just tell

·3· ·people about, like, yes, you can short sell penny

·4· ·stocks, yes, you don't just have to invest for the long

·5· ·term.

·6· · · · · · ·So I gradually realized, you know, there was a

·7· ·big inefficiency where, even though I was successful as

·8· ·a trader and, you know, basically I lost as an investor,

·9· ·I wanted to teach from my successes and from my

10· ·failures.· And thanks to the success of the tv show,

11· ·which I heard was apparently the number one most

12· ·downloaded show on Itunes back in, like, this was, like,

13· ·2007, I had a lot of people asking me, how do you trade?

14· · · · · · ·And so I wrote the book, An American Hedge

15· ·Fund, and I got into teaching and I closed down the

16· ·hedge fund.

17· · · · · · ·The investors weren't asking for their money

18· ·back.· I'm always very clear about this, like, some

19· ·people think I lost all the money.· We lost basically

20· ·30 percent, which, you know, is not very good, but over

21· ·four years we still finished up 2 percent per year.

22· · · · · · ·But I saw more opportunity in just being

23· ·honest, being blunt, being transparent, showing every,

24· ·single trade online, which I continue to do.

25· · · · · · ·I show all my trades, you know, now 13, 14

·1· ·years later after I began teaching.· And now I donate

·2· ·all my trading profits to charity.· But every, single

·3· ·trade I do video lessons or watch lists and I say what I

·4· ·did right and what I did wrong.· It's not just about the

·6· ·focused on pretty much every day.

·7· · · · Q· · All right.· So, Mr. Sykes, first, I appreciate

·8· ·your answer.

·9· · · · · · ·So just to clarify then, so you started your

10· ·career as a hedge fund manager and then transitioned

11· ·from that to an educator?

12· · · · A· · Correct.

13· · · · Q· · And so when did -- when did your career as a

14· ·hedge fund manager end, what year?

15· · · · A· · This was, I believe, 2007.· I started the

16· ·website timothysykes.com in late 2007, I believe.

17· · · · Q· · So you -- your hedge fund days ended in 2007?

18· · · · A· · Correct.

19· · · · Q· · And then you believe that your career as an

20· ·educator began that same year?

21· · · · A· · Yes.· I transitioned.

22· · · · Q· · All right.· And the genesis of your career as

23· ·an educator began with this television show?

24· · · · A· · That's what led me to understand that there

25· ·was an opportunity in being so honest, like I said,

·1· ·with, you know, there was a conflict where you couldn't

·2· ·talk about your results publicly, and yet a lot of

·3· ·people had a lot of questions.· So I was -- I was

·4· ·conflicted.

·5· · · · · · ·I couldn't talk about my strategy openly as a

·6· ·hedge fund manager, so I had to leave the hedge fund,

·7· ·where I wrote the book, and then I could talk freely.

·8· · · · Q· · Okay.· Now, when did you create your first

·9· ·company to provide your educational services?

10· · · · A· · So I believe, you know, and I could be

11· ·wrong -- again, I have a lot of -- a lot of people

12· ·helping with lawyers and accountants.· But I believe it

13· ·was 2007 when I closed down the hedge fund and created

14· ·my own publishing company.

15· · · · Q· · And was that TLC?

16· · · · A· · It was called Bullship Press at first,

17· ·Bullship with a P at the end.· I had, like, a joke where

18· ·I was going to, you know, cut through the BS and ship

19· ·people books.· It didn't really work.· It just sounded

20· ·like I was swearing.

21· · · · Q· · And where -- and where -- what state did you

22· ·incorporate or form that company in?

23· · · · A· · That's a good question.· That was -- that was

24· ·a while ago.· I'm not 100 percent sure.· I believe it

25· ·was Florida, but I can't be sure.

·1· · · · Q· · Okay.· And then how long did Bullship survive?

·2· · · · A· · Not very long, because as I was learning, it

·3· ·sounds like you're swearing, so my attempt at humor

·4· ·failed.· I couldn't really say the name of my company on

·5· ·tv, so we changed it to Millionaire Media.

·6· · · · Q· · Okay.· So, listen, I deposed your father the

·7· ·other day, Joel Leabman.· And he told -- he told me the

·8· ·first company that was formed was TLC Media.· Do you

·9· ·have a different recollection?

10· · · · A· · I mean, I wrote the book before we started any

11· ·websites.· So, you know, he's also a part of all of

12· ·this.

13· · · · · · ·But we're talking about something that was

14· ·over a decade ago.· So the exact timeline, you know, I

15· ·don't know exactly, but I wrote the book before we

16· ·created the website.· I wasn't even going to create a

17· ·website.· We only created it in order to promote the

18· ·book.

19· · · · Q· · Okay.· So let me -- let me try to put these

20· ·pieces together.· All right?

21· · · · A· · Sure.

22· · · · Q· · So you finished as a hedge fund manager in

23· ·2007, and then realized that there was a career in

24· ·educating people on how to trade; that's correct?

·3· ·EquityFeed could not handle what we needed and, you

·6· · · · A· · I believe it was The Challenge, because that

·7· ·was basically how Zach came into my life, because I was

·8· ·already giving, you know, watch lists and trade alerts.

·9· · · · · · ·But he said, you know, there's more that you

10· ·can do with education.· We can combine, you know -- oh,

11· ·and I had DVDs.· So he's, like, combine the DVDs, the

12· ·watch lists into a whole curriculum and he would market

13· ·The Challenge.

14· · · · Q· · Now, what I understood from Mr. Westphal was

15· ·that The Challenge was marketed through Millionaire

16· ·Media.

17· · · · A· · Again, I'm not familiar with the companies.

18· · · · Q· · Okay.· So what you know is, is that at some

19· ·point in time Jewmon launched a white label version of

20· ·the EquityFeed market scanning research tool, correct?

21· · · · A· · Yes.· We had a white label for a short period

22· ·of time.

23· · · · Q· · Right.· And then what I'm trying to understand

24· ·is, before Jewmon launched the white label market

25· ·research scanning tool, what else had it done?

·4· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· The Challenge is the primary

·8· · · · · · ·This is where, you know, we now have nearly

20· · · · · · ·So one of the scans might be the biggest

·1· · · · Let me just show you some of the stuff that

·2· ·already people are saying about this, because, you

·3· ·know, we have 150 people who have been beta testing

·4· ·it for the past few months.

·5· · · · This is one example.· WATT, this was the other

·6· ·day, pre-market at 8:22 in the morning came this

·7· ·news about Energis up roughly 5 percent on the day,

·8· ·following Apple wireless charging rumors.

·9· · · · I saw this alert on StocksToTrade and I was

10· ·immediately watching this stock for potential

11· ·spiking.· I bought it right at the market open in

12· ·the mid 5s.· Within an hour it went to the mid 7s.

13· · · · I actually sold it too soon, because I didn't

14· ·realize how much of an advantage StocksToTrade gave

15· ·me, because most news services picked this up

16· ·around 9:45 or 10:00 in the morning.· I knew about

17· ·it at 8:22 in the morning.

18· · · · I'm not saying this is always going to happen,

19· ·but no other platform really cares about low-priced

20· ·stocks.· No other platform is built by traders for

21· ·traders.· We have a lot of politicians and a lot

22· ·of, you know, investors who build these platforms.

23· · · · I'm a trader and I specifically requested over

24· ·200 features be added to this.

25· · · · My programmers think I'm absolutely crazy, but

19· ·February 6, 2016.· And now what you're saying is, is

·5· · · · And what's happening lately is that these

11· ·because of the volatility, it's because of all

·1· ·there's another level two.

·2· · · · · · ·This is how we teach.· We create educational

·3· ·resources like this and then we build it up and then we

·4· ·up sell them to something that saves even more time.

·5· · · · · · ·If a scanner or a screener can save a little

·6· ·time, imagine a screener created by somebody like me

·7· ·with 20 years of experience.

·8· · · · · · ·So this is how I teach, step by step by step.

·9· · · · · · ·You're taking one step and isolating it,

10· ·ignoring all the other steps and coming to a different

11· ·conclusion.· I won't let that happen.

12· · · · Q· · Okay.· And then, Mr. Sykes, with regard to

13· ·filtering out irrelevant choices, you state, "By

14· ·filtering based on your criteria, the stocks that aren't

15· ·relevant won't even show up in your search and won't

16· ·distract you."

17· · · · · · ·So you said that here, correct?

18· · · · A· · This is how it works for level one usefulness

19· ·in a scanner.

20· · · · · · ·And then as I'm going to say for a third time,

21· ·then once you learn how level one helps, but maybe

22· ·they're going to try to create their own scans, maybe

23· ·they'll get overwhelmed.· That makes them more able and

·6· · · · A· · Awesome -- awesome charting software is not

·7· ·scanning software.· Charting is a visual thing.

·8· · · · · · ·And I do like the visuals because I had a role

10· ·list of the 200 incremental, you know, changes that

11· ·we've made over time.

12· · · · · · ·So, yes, I do like the charts on StocksToTrade

15· · · · · · ·I'm a visual kind of guy.

·3· ·basically the one place to go to screen for stocks.

13· ·running this thing, seeing if it works, seeing if

14· ·it matches your stocks, comparing it to other

15· ·screeners to see if it's getting the criteria right

16· ·and matching the right stocks.· And I've often

17· ·found, even with some of these sites, they don't

18· ·always screen all the markets.

19· · · · Some of them don't necessarily screen, like

20· ·OTC stocks or pink sheet stocks, which are very hot

21· ·right now.

·1· ·StocksToTrade 2.0, would that surprise you?

·2· · · · · · ·MR. JAFFE:· Objection.· Speculation.

·3· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· I can't answer hypothetical

·5· · · · sorry.· You're stretching where I -- my knowledge

10· · · · · · ·So at the end of the day, your bottom line is,

11· ·is that, Screener Plus and Filter Builder, based on

13· · · · · · ·MR. COLWELL:· Objection.

15· · · · different.

16· ·BY MR. FELDMAN:

17· · · · Q· · They are not duplicates, correct?

18· · · · A· · No, they are not duplicates.

19· · · · Q· · But you don't know if the people who developed

20· ·StocksToTrade 2.0 looked at, consulted Filter Builder

21· ·while developing StocksToTrade 2.0?

22· · · · A· · I don't know.· I'm sorry.

·1· · · · A· · Until that video I have not seen that.

·2· · · · · · ·But again, now I really understand why

·3· ·StocksToTrade 2.0 succeeds where EquityFeed fails.

·4· · · · · · ·As I mentioned and began to mention, there are

·5· ·many differences, namely, like the colors and the visual

·6· ·styling.

·7· · · · Q· · Anything else, other than colors and visual

·8· ·styling?

·9· · · · A· · I mean, just my own personal experience with

10· ·students, when students complain that the scans aren't

11· ·working with EquityFeed.· Again, I'm not a programmer,

12· ·so I don't know the programming data issues that Stephan

13· ·and his programmers had, but I do know from the multiple

14· ·complaints it didn't work.

15· · · · · · ·I know from StocksToTrade 2.0, again, there's

16· ·still a few complaints, every software program has them,

17· ·but the percentage of complaints is vastly different.

18· · · · · · ·So I, as a teacher, do not want to promote a

19· ·product that gets a lot of complaints.· It discredits

20· ·me.

21· · · · · · ·So I'm very happy that StocksToTrade 2.0 does

22· ·not have the same problems.· And I don't know what those

23· ·problems are.· I'm not going to speculate.· You have to

24· ·ask Stephan and his programmers what -- what the issues

25· ·were.

18· · · · Q· · Tom Grittani is a very, very successful

20· · · · A· · Tim Grittani, yes is.· But he's also not

·1· · · · A· · Yes.

·2· · · · Q· · And then Mike Beauregard asks a question.· "If

·3· ·you had to choose between Scanz or StocksToTrade, which

·4· ·one would you choose and why?"

·5· · · · · · ·Do you see that?

·6· · · · A· · Yes.

·9· · · · Q· · What does he answer?

10· · · · A· · He says, "Scanz.· Far -- far fewer crashes."

11· · · · Q· · And that's -- that's a very different answer

12· ·than the answers that you've said that you got from all

13· ·of your -- all of these other students who complained

14· ·about Scanz, right?

15· · · · A· · Well, you're comparing different timeframes.

16· · · · · · ·So when we had StocksToTrade with EquityFeed,

17· ·this was, you know the years, I don't even know the

18· ·years, we're talking five or six years ago.· So maybe

19· ·Scanz has gotten better.

20· · · · · · ·Also, this tweet is over a year ago and

21· ·StocksToTrade has had several upgrades since then.

22· · · · · · ·Also, Tim Grittani is not trading right now.

23· · · · · · ·So while you want to make these blanket
