Subject: Up 2000% for the year!!!
Joe-
I've been enjoying the good life thanks to your picks throughout
the year. Your service has more than paid for itself. Hope to make
the million dollar club by the end of next year. Thanks again not
only for your picks but also teaching me the art of momentum trading.
Happy New Year.

Joe,
While on vacation the past two weeks I decided to give some deveoted
attention to the SA opportuinty. I have been trading on line since
august and signed up with SA about 6 weeks ago. Still reading and
trading of course. However, while you were in the chat room during
your vacation you asked if anyone had followed you into ICGE. I
did not say it then but I will now, I did and I am glad I did. I
bought at 146 and sold (in violation of the SA rule) at 196 (cost
me about 10K). Keep the bar high to weed out the "something for
nothing" crowd. Your methonds are ingenious. You force subscribers
to either go away or get rich! Keep up the good work.

PS Will be sending 1,000.00 to the SA Charity!

TJ,
I just wanted to drop by and say hello.. I get a kick out of reading
all the emails that you sent me.. people whinning about their heads
getting chopped off because they want to be traders!
I have been trading for about 2 years right now... just like all
beginners i got my ass kicked.. blew 2 accounts in about 3 months..
took some time to reflect on my mistakes and everything has been
ok afterwards.. i was making decent money... but everthing changed
after i joined your service,, sometime i make more money in a day
than someone could make in a year! I read some of your testamonials,,
and thought it was too good to be true.. I didn't think i would
ever be writing this email to you and telling you how you have impacted
me as a trader.. you showed me how to fish.. no just provide me
with the fish.. I love CHAOS now... i love it when people panic
and sell their shares because they don't have enough DD... i just
go in and scoop it all up!!
I think the most valuable lesson that you have taught me would
be controlling FEAR and GREED... buy when the dogs sell,, and sell
when the dogs buy! simply awesome statement!
best regards,
poe

TJ,
I was in the chatroom tonight when you were talking about being
a close family with the use of the internet. So i wanted to take
a minute and show you a picture of some of your extended family!
They are Kaitlyn and Drew. I talk about you so much that my 3 year
old wants a "TJ" for Christmas...........ROFL....He has no clue.
You have made such a great monetary impact in their lives........I
also mailed a check today for your charity. Not much but with your
teaching, my ability to give will increase!.....Thank you from all
of us

Thank you, went long on gblx based on your call @ 25 1/2 about
10 weeks ago, still long and having great day.
I'm one of those newbies who will never be a great trader (got
a bad case of the buyhiselowsies), but your calls are so good I
can research em ,chart em, watch em, buy em and hold em. A simple
solution that serves me well.
What's up with lois law (lois) my dd says great story as the only
pure play as a B2B in the legal prfession. Stock goes up on no volume,
just like my lawyers bill???
Charity - my check for $200 will be in the morning mail, thanks
for the opportunity to help those who truly need help.
Keep up your good work, TJ and thanks again.

Subject: thank you
Dear Joe:
I became your member 3 months ago. I learned a lot from you. I
also appreciate what you have picked. 95 % of your picks are great.
What I need is patience. The most impressive pick was USWC. You
gave this company when it was traded at 4-5 range. I jumped in at
the moment. I paid 5 1/8. Next day, I cut loss sold at 4 3/8 with
a few thousands lost. But after a while, I did a little bit research
about this company and I was getting like this company. One important
factor is that the insider was buying their shares. Ok, so I reentered
USWC in November 4. I bought 5000 shares. My cost is around 5 dollars.
It was a BIG thanksgiving gift as I sold my all shares following
Thanksgiving at 22. I made 85,000. I am so happy. I'd like to thank
you. How many picks Joe made run up huge in a short time? I think
95% at least.
Good luck to your family
 Date: 12/9/99 7:40:07 PM Eastern Standard Time
Joe,
I am still a schmuck and have a lot to learn still, but below
is what you have given me in the last 30 days.
CLRS in at 37.50 now 61.00
RSII in at 26.00 now 51.63
WEBS in at 12.50 now 16.69
RMKR in at 16.63 now 26.69
CNQR in at 27.00 now 33.88
Thanks so much. I am up $30K in the last 3 days. The ONLY reason
my account balance isn't higher is because I have not done the stop
loss properly in the past (ZANY, SSPE, PFSW, etc.) I am a believer,
especially from reading all the other email from SA members making
the same mistakes, but learning. The most frustrating part is not
having the money to participate in the "new winners" because I'm
holding the "old dogs".
Couldn't make the first seminar but can hedly wait for the next
one.
Keep up the great work. Your abilities are unbelievable.
Thanks again,
Brad

Subject: What a month
Joe,
Thanks for the inrs, cnrs, yhoo, etc. ( ones that come to mind
as I write, but there are so many over the past six months+/-) Been
with your service for (can't remember how long) but long past due
to write the thank you! Bought the shares the 'smucks' sold early,
and as usual, the short term growth outweighed the risk. When DD
kicked in, I sold and rebought at a lower price. Bottom line up
huge %.
I hope that all are getting your message on DD and reacting with
diligence, although I appreciate the buys I was able to get during
their untimly sell offs on your picks. I will take the sells and
buy in many cases along with many others, I am sure.
FYI., did take the 25K portfolio to 100K and looking for 200K
by 1st qtr 2000. No dought about it it will happen

I have been a member of SA for about a month, just got my second
bill, and paid it laughing. In the beginning I was a little concerned,
things worked out great for the first week or so, then it turned
around. However, as I am a greedy fearfull schumuck, I listened
to your advices and held tight. Drank about 10 bootles of maalox
for my stomach.
I am very happy to tell you that in the end everything turned
out great, I am up 45K since joining, a 65% return in about a month,
being 10K today on RMKR and INTM, wanted to play PERL but was out
of cash, who said life was fair???
Funny thing, some of your picks take while to come true, but after
a month, I learned that patience pays, in a handsome way.
Please let me know when SATT will be up and running, using Prudential
Securities and E-TURD, they are very lousy, too slow, no short availability
and unreliable for fast moving stocks, the kind you can make a killing
or get killed.
I was unable to participate in the first seminar, had to go to
brazil for a biz meeting, but as soon as you plan another one, I
will be there.
Thank you TJ, you are da man.

Dear Joe,since 1 month I am a new member of the s.a. and I didn't

with a speculative touch and in a different way the banks are doing
over here in Switzerland. I want to thank you for the terrible job
you do for every member and I am proud and happy to be part of the

JNIC and GTHR and I am extremely satisfied. In order to show you
my gratitude I ask you to debit our Visa-Card with an additional

< lizcris > Dear Tj - don't want to interrupt you (5:49 ET) but
just wanted to tell you that I really had my first BIG successful
day following you on Yahoo (only long - too chicken to short) I
made 37K and it was such a thrill - thank you so very much - off
to the states to mail you a small token of my appreciation.
 Date: Tue, 7 Dec 1999
I am also working with $100,000 but for 3 months have only accomplished
a 73% return.
 Date: Tue, 7 Dec 1999 08:02:05 EST
It would be much appreciated if the super successful would share
the trades that accomplished such strong returns in 6 weeks to 18
months. I would be interested in seeing the movement in and out,
the winners and losers, and the volume of most transactions. I am
also working with $100,000 but for 3 months have only accomplished
a 73% return. Not bad, but I want to get to the next level.
This could be a learning tool, maybe they would share with other
members. Thanks and please respond.

Subject: Re: Thanks, return improved since I joined SA
Tokyo Joe:
Just a quick note to let you know that since I joined your investment
club I have substantially improved the return of my portfolio.
I would also like to ask for some quick advise. I own ELNK and
MSPG since they were at 45 and 27, respectively. They seem not able
to break through 60 and 35, respectlively. Should I take profits
now or wait. Apparently, the rally of the NASDAQ is almost over.
Although some stocks continue to rally, profit taking in the vast
majority of them has already started. The number of decliners is
higher in all three major indices.
NYSE Adv/Dec +1,109 / -1,959
NASDAQ Adv/Dec +1,879 / -2,233
AMEX Adv/Dec +238 / -361
Have you heard anything in MSPG or ELNK that should make me keep
them?
Thanks,
Jose M.
 Date: 12/6/99 7:20:32 PM Eastern Standard Time
Joe,
Glad you wrote this admonition, I've been feeling frustrated lately
with the less than elementary level of education evident in the
questions asked in the chat room. I'm not always sure about things
either, but learned quickly the incredible value of the SA website.
Besides that, I'd rather figure it out than demonstrate my idiocy
by typing a question and risk you publicly calling me a f ng schmuck...
I do have my pride, you know. ggg
I was also suprised/frustrated with a few inane questions you
had to field at the seminar...
I was able to say hello to you (in the lunch line where I told
you I couldn't stay for the afternoon session) and even though I
missed the afternoon charting & L2 presentations, feel my trip was
worthwhile because I was able to see and hear you think on your
feet. My level of confidence in you was already high, but I think
because as a psychologist, I make my best judgments about people
by being around them, I needed to experience you in vivo. You have
an unique and winning mix of bravado, humility, and enthusiasm!
Please keep scolding, coaching, nurturing, and briefly banning
us as the need arises. You are onto something big here, not merely
financial, but potentially paradigm-shifting. Your vision of a grass
roots group of regular folks becoming a market force may be closer
to reality than we know.
If you are thinking of a seminar on the West Coast (Bay Area);
I've got a great connection for 5 star facilities/hotel in San Jose...
For goodness' sake, that's where most of our profit comes from!
All the best to You & your family,
GarudaBlend

Even though I will not be there tomorrow (I observe the 7th day
Sabbath), I am praying that you will have a great day. You have
lots of knowledge to share, not only about investing but about the
world, history, art, love etc. You will do well tomorrow!
I am eternally grateful for your kindness, compassion and sharing
so generously of your knowledge. I have never spent $200 a month
for education and learned so much. In another chat room for the
past year, I lost beaucoup before SA, was down to less than $4000.
I am now over $21,000 and listening carefully every day. I will
let you know when I am even and making profit!
Good luck tomorrow, even with the geisha girls. LOL

Subj: A lesson and hope for newbies
TJ,
I just wanted to write to you after everything that has happened
to me in the last few days with your calls. I wanted to tell you
my story and what has led me to this point. I have told this story
in the chat channel for those who remember but I thought all the
newbies might benefit!
I started, what I thought was, trading in April of this year.
Up until then I did not know what bid, ask, short or, most importantly,
what a stop loss was. I was coaxed into trading by my brother, who
said he had the tip of the century in stocks for me. All I had to
do was open an account and he would give me the tip. I opened an
account with Datek and waited for the stock. A matter of fact it
was 2 stocks that coming out, IPO's. The first came out in May,
and I was told to buy at 60. That stock was TSCM. The other a few
days later BNBN at 25. Needless to say you all know where they went
after that and the $10,000.00 I started with became $900.00. It
became the SHOCK of the century!
In June, pondering what to do next, I was watching CNBC to try
and learn something so I could get my money back, and I heard TokyoJoe
mentioned on the air that he was responsible for running up a stock.
It caught my curiosity and I found his website. In July I joined
as a regular member and as ditsy as I sound read three of the books
listed. I poked a few current alerts and made a few dollars. Then
going through the website more thoroughly I saw that he had an IRC
channel so the first week of Sept. I joined. The first week on the
chat channel, I took my $900.00 or so and I made back $8,000.00,
mostly from a stock called CMRC & ENGA! Yes I had a few learning
setbacks in Oct. with a few stocks ZANY, PDYN & PVSW, but I did
not despair. I became smarter and more experienced and I overcame.
This leads me to this past week of trades. Having chosen winners
like CNRS from 7, PFSW from 41, CLRS from 44, PLUS from 17, PUMA
from 42, RMKR from 11 3/8 I am up $29,000.00 in 2 1/2 months. To
me that is phenominal!
The learning experience in the chat channel is unmatched. I may
talk alot but I always try to listen and learn from you as well
as other SA members who are willing to help me. And I have learned
that the more you curse, spit, yell, piss at us the more you like
us and enjoy teaching us. I hope I didn't ramble to much here and
for all those who do not know me, my name is ----------------Tiffany!
Thanks for everything TJ!

TJ,
Have been with SA for about 9 mos now.
Started with limited capital and limited trading knowledge. Was
in IRC before premium requirement, watched, listened, and learned.
Still made plenty of mistakes.
Recently have been very focused on 100-200 share lots of SA picks
and taking profits (relentlessly).
Reached a personal milestone this week with profits of $10k+. From
a previous high of $4.7k two weeks ago.

Subj: Testimonial
Just wanted to say thanks! After being up around 34K in june I
was down 6K in November. I read about your service on a messageboard
and check it out. I decided to give it a try and it turn out being
one of the best moves I have made this year. By buying 100 - 200
shares of your recommended stocks I was able to make up that 6K
loss plus add another 2K within a month. You are the real deal!
Thanks again!

Joe-
Didn't think this would happen.
I lost 11K this year and was down to $900 three weeks ago. Scratched
together 2K to play again. Today I am even and going green. My hands
are shaking.
Big news for a little player.
I would be dead without SA.

Subj: One of the best decisions I ever made!
Dear Joe,
I have only been a member for about six weeks and I am still learning
the ropes, especially in the chat room. I don't really feel qualified
as of yet to interact to much, because there are so many who are
much more knowledgeable that I am. I'm sure the time will come,
but as of now I am trying to stay out of the way.
But I had to write and tell you how much I enjoy the membership.
I learned about you on some bulletin boards and what I read went
from one extreme to the other. Some were shouting "Tokyo Joe is
a con artist getting rich off small investors with his pump and
dump scam" others were saying you were "God"
I figured like most things that the truth was somewhere in the
middle. People tend to believe whatever they hear without checking
it out and then they parrot it to others with no consideration for
the truth. So I took a chance and joined SA to judge for myself.
Here is the conclusion I came to. (big deal right ggg)
First let me say that this was one of the best decisions I have
ever made concerning my investing life!
Here is what I discovered:
At the beginning It took awhile to understand your e-mails and
comments in the chat room, First I thought it was some kind of secret
code that I had to learn, until I realized you just think faster
than you type. It's almost like trying to learn another language!
I thought ROFLMAO might mean either "buy" or "sell" the first time
I logged on until I read the explanations of the acronyms on the
website. but it's getting a lot easier everyday! A couple of times
I went to look at a chart of a stock you mentioned only to get a
"No such symbol in database." Then someone usually asked what symbol
you meant to type and you retyped it.
A fair percentage of the calls you make are on stocks that have
large floats and aren't really susceptible to manipulation by your
alerts. And more often than not the stock moves in the direction
you stated because you have taken the time to study it's force and
intercept it's move.
People constantly ask the same questions like "Whats the target"
as soon as the alert is given and are ready to push the sell button
on the first small down move on a long term pick (Like RMKR). I
may be wrong but doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of the long
term calls?
On the momentum plays you clearly state in various ways " You
decide when to get in or out, I have given you the ticket, take
a ride if you want or don't jump in if your not comfortable, you
need to make your own decisions on these calls like an adult" I
cannot believe that anybody playing the alerts would expect you
to ride a stock down as it tanked just because they don't stick
with reasonable stops. (I confess though that I did that with ZANY..
LOL.)
In closing I just want to thank you for your research. I noticed
that I get e-mails day and night, and I have an idea that you put
25 hours of work in a 24 hour day. Unfortunately as much as you
say for us members to do "Due Diligence" I think many of us want
you to do all the heavy lifting and we just reap the benefits of
your labor.
You constantly tell us to check out the calls ourselves with DD
because we will be rewarded with high percentage returns if we study
the charts and research the stocks. That reminds me of another person
who said the same thing and your in good company!
"He who has a lazy hand becomes poor, But the hand of the DILIGENT
makes rich!
Proverbs 10:4 (King Solomon)
I intend to continue my membership and also transfer my account
from Datek when you start the brokerage.
Thank you Mr. Parks!
Sincerely,
Jimmymac

Subj: Full Circle Date:
Joe, I bought a stock at 4 1/2 last september. I averaged down
to 2 3/4 then joined SA. I ended up with 6000 shares till I ran
out of money. The stock went to 2.
I em'd you when I first joined. i asked you about that stock and
you told me "use sa rules", "use your judgement", and "look at the
chart". I did and em'd you back that I thought the stock still looked
good. I sold it all at 2 3/4 and at a sizeable loss finally after
reading the whole website, especially the parts about stop loss.
That stock was VONE, and you know what it did today. That 6000
shares would have gone from 16,500 to 96,000 today. I should be
pissed.
Truth is, I turned the 16,500 into 175,000 by getting out and
playing sa picks. Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.

I am in Canada - will I still be able to use your brokerage??? Because
I am not in USA I cannot take advantage of IPO's before hitting

Dear TJ -
I made $25,000 in the last couple weeks since joining your service
(This includes the mistakes I made ). I'm sure this is not alot
compared to many of your members, but I think its pretty good as
a start! I started w/ email membership, but since then have upgraded
to the premium membership - makes alot of difference. I'm really
enjoying the "trading room" - watching - listening - learning as
you suggest one does in the beginning (i cannot resist small trades
here and there).
I especially like the fact that you keep in mind to give to charity
- its easy to get wrapped in MONEY & TRADING and to forget about
the less fortunate.
Also - if you are ever in Philadelphia area - you are a special
guest for the best home cooked Pakistani food you'll ever have (you
can't get any better in any of the fancy restaurants in NY!!).

BTW, I've been a premium member for for about 4 months and have
learned a great deal. Your picks and advice are priceless...I've
been trading for a year now, but joining SA has greatly improved
my consistency. I am now averaging $1k/day...I'm not a high roller(yet)
and trade from work, but I'm growing my capital for that day, when
I will leave the corporate ladder b.s. behind and trade full time.
Trading is the only thing that can provide the freedom to enjoy
life...the time and money to travel, learn, live and experience
it all. You have been an excellent mentor!
I'm looking forward to joining the SATT brokerage.

Subject: Oct/Nov Performance (Testimonial)
I just spent several hours going over your emails over the last
couple months. (I saved about 95% of them--over 1000!) I pulled
up a two month chart on all your picks and couldn't believe the
results. I didn't write down exact stats, but I would conservatively
estimate that about 75% made impressive to phenomenal runs at some
point, another 15% went nowhere and the other 10% were losers (which
would have been stopped out if proper exits were observed.) If anyone
questions your results, and they have also saved emails, I would
encourage them to do the same as I did. (It also helped me to understand
your selection method.)
Another thing I noticed was that the stocks that you sent several
emails on were typically the ones that moved the most. (ZANY seems
to be the lone exception.) Some people would say that these stocks
moved because you manipulated them with your recommendations, but
no one, no matter how influential, can manipulate individual stocks
over a period of months. It just doesn't happen.
Unfortunately, I missed out on most of those moves, and only profited
on about $1,000 from a couple picks. Time to start trading 100-share
lots. Thanks again!

Your stock analysis and recommendations are direct and straight
to the point. I truly appreciate your service. The majority of my
investments after joining SA have been very profitable and am currently
up 30% since joining SA two months ago. I have been able to do this
while working 60 hour weeks as a consultant design engineer by using
stops. I still have not decided if I would do better if I was trading
full time.
Thank you for your service. Your emails are especially helpful.
I use everyone as my seed for dd. It is great that they are strait
to the point and there is no need to read fluff! who really has
time for that!?
The time I am able to spend in the chat room in eves and weekend
is also very helpful. Wish you had your seminar in Miami, I would
have been there! I am currently holding clrs,rmkr,ispd and a bit
of zany.

I have been trying to make some money in the stock market for
the last 5 months. I read all the books on TA and day trade, bought
a ton of software and subscribed to newsletters, magazines, journals
and websites.
I read a lot of posts of message boards that mentioned your name,
but was unable to find your website. Untill I read a message that
had link to TokyoJoe.com and joined. Of all the thousands and thousands
that I spent so far, your website has been the best investment I
had made so far.
The chat room and your picks have saved me from hours and hours
of (almost) futile search for good picks. The first pick i played
was JNIC last week. To tell the truth, my confidence was a little
shaken at first, I got in @94 for 1K shares and got stoped out @88.
I decided to give it another try got another 600 @ 72 1/4, what
an awesome ride.
Today with CLRS JNIC and ECTX, i got all my money back with a
vengeance
Thank you man
You are da best.

Thanks for the JNIC heads up....and especially the encouragement
this morning to hold tough. I already owned some at 79 and tried
to buy more at 73, but my brokerage account was overloaded and could
not process it in time. (wish I had had level2). Also your instintive
pick of CLRS was one of the best I have seen. I wasn't as convinced
of your abilities when I first came to the service....but I am slowly
learning to listen....and trust. Trust was the hard part...but I
also realized it was my responsibilty to manage the trades after
purchase. The people that expect you to give them buy points and
sell points should spend a little more time learning about the market
and less time expecting you to hold their hands. Thanks for the
hard work!

Joe,
Signed up on Thursday. Needles to say that I've been trading on
and off for several years while continuing my real job. I decided
several weeks ago to give this a chance and see what I can do. I
was OK, except like most I was fighting myself and not the trade.
I had read several times about the SA group and decided "What the
Fuck do I have to lose"? It `s bills I can trade through 2 bills
in a nano second. So, I join SA, in order to see what happens. Watched
you and the rest of the folks trade tips, etc., and I decide buy
your picks,,CRLS (saw the weekend news on it) NITE, JNIC, OMGA .
Needles to say, am up in 3 days what I would have been up in a month.
Not to shabby!!!! I like the Sa`s approach to investing. Your people
don`t take any BS, which is very good. Anyway, please use this letter
as a token of my appreciation to you and the SA`s.... Thank You
for your great insight and investing technique....

Just before I joined I bought 1000 shares of SGNT at $18.50. Your
recommendations have been working out quicker then I expected. Should
I hold SGNT or sell off and follow you? Or should I hold for the
expected breakout like I did when PPRO was at $28.50?

Joe,
YOU ARE THE FUCKING MAN! Seriously, I've learned so much from
you & SA it makes me shiver! I went full time (daytrading) exactly
6 months ago. I immediately signed up with Executioner & loved the
lightning fast executions (by the way can't wait for SA trading
tool). I was super conservative when I first quit my fathers 25
year old business - tough to do! I knew I could make more money
following SA, so I did it (I quit).
Well, to make a long story short for the first 7 weeks I was questioning
myself for doing what I did (quitting). I was down 7.4% over all,
I found out quickly that I was being to conservative! Now I learned
to go for it!
Well, - 7 weeks being down 7.4%...now just 19 weeks later, I've
got this figured out! I'm currently up 74.3%!!!! I'm so damn happy...that's
not including this week - JNIC was a super winner today, but I'm
still holding majority of the shares! I bought my first shares of
JNIC at 86 1/2...bought another 100 at 81 1/2 & finally the last
lot at 73 this morning, I listened to your every move & now I'm
up & feel so good about what I did! Normally I would have stopped
out & been kicking myself when I saw it start to go without me!
So, I just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!
I've learned a lot! I learned to paper trade after quitting your
job...even after you have traded before, take a break & never jump
right into it! Oh, I have been up for 11 weeks in a row! Then I
went on vacation to Florida & ended up not being able to concentrate
as well as I normally do & that killed that streak! Oh well another
lesson learned~ never trade while on vacation unless you have the
time to dedicate to it!
Thank you very much, I deeply appreciate everything you've done
for me & the rest of SA!

Hi,
Thanks for the great picks of late. I'm however feeling overwhelmed
by the quanity of picks that I am receiving. I'm doing my research
on all the picks u send me and then I try to decide which ones make
the most sense. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on how
to filter through your selections .
I had a great week. Rode DTLK from 13 to 22. Rode SGNT from 13.5
to 18 and TSFM from 42 which I am still holding. I will probably
dump it before earnings are released. Flycast and DCLK both sold
off after earnings were released. Seems the street doesn't like
companies who aren't showing a profit even when they have huge revenue
gains.

Thanks from a former member, soon to be a current member thanks
to one of your picks in October. After trading NFF and IMAA the
wrong way, I had dwindled my investments down to the point that
it did not warrant keeping my membership current with you. Thankfully
I saved, and followed the last E-mail alerts from you, from early
October when my membership lapsed. I bought into DTLK and had a
great recovery today. Thanks, I truly have missed not being a member,

I just want to thank you for your picks recently that jumped me
over 100k. I've been a member for about 6 months and started trading
begining of the year.
i was down over 70% at the start, made some really bad trades, common
newbie mistakes, too greedy, no control, etc., etc. But after learning
patience, controlling losses and learn sell for a profit and to
mimimize losses, i made all my money back and then some. i was stuck
in the 90-100k range for the longest time about 3 months, but finally
broke though within the last week, on iwov, rdwr, jnic, and jcda.
now heading toward 200. thanks again

Subject: thanks
Dear TJ:
Just want to say "Thank you."
I am a SA member for more than 6 months now and had learned a
lot from you since joining. The most important lesson I learned
is how to be disciplined and not be greedy. Greed is probably the
worst enemy of all day traders. I usually set a target on how much
I want to make on a day or a week and will try to stick with it.
Once my target is met I will exit that position and will not look
back. Sure those stocks I sold may still go higher, like many of
the calls you made, like cmcr, isld, hsac, bvsn, etc.., but there
are so many other great companies / stocks available. I learned
not to chase and not to blame myself for letting go of a stocks

the way you trade are indeed a good lessons for all of us newbies.
Thanks again. You are a good teacher indeed ( minus all the "F"
words that is :) ggg)

Joe,
As I hide behind the veil of the internet, it is hard to believe
I am having sincere feelings about someone who has affected my life
so much, yet someone I have never met or seen. I have followed you
on SI since Feb. '98, and joined Nov. '98. You have proved to be
an inspiration and an excellent teacher. I am up a modest (by SA
standards) 200% this year, and could not have done it without you
and SA.
Above all, I see that SA is built on the trust and honesty that
you have instilled through you actions and thoughts. I appreciate
your take on life, Zen, and the big picture. I will continue to
watch, learn, and hopefully profit from the knowledge you and SA
provide everyday.
Thank you...I hope someday to meet you.
Peace

Joe,
I'll make this short and sweet. Through your service I have made
more money then you can imagine.
I started out in Feb. with 2000, Currently my portfolio is worth
300,000!!! yes largely due to CRDS, I made a killing with a 100,000
gain in 2 days.
Well to give credit where its due you have been a strong influence
in my trading, and have made me mature into a fine tuned piece of
machinery.
I'm currently a Sophomore at college, majoring in Computer Information
Systems and probably the richest around!!! hahahaa!
But I never boast or have told anyone of my financial position,
however I am a regular donater to the Local mosque (I'm muslim).
What I have learned from you are 2 things
1. Never let your emotions over power you.(Dont chase,dont get
greedy, buy when the dogs sell)
2. Donate to charity with an open heart and God will bless you
with twice as much.
I LOOK FORWARD TO RECEIVING MY FERRARI F355 SPIDER FROM THE TOY
STORE ANYDAY!!!!
I had to enjoy some of the money I made!!!!

Subject: taking a minute to say thank you
Joe, I just wanted to thank you for your great stock picks. Your
advice and your ability to consistantly pick winning stocks in a
down market is uncanny. I have been trading for three years and
I would consider myself an excellent trader. I an self-taught, which
means that I lost money the first 18 months...lol . The good news
is that I have gone from $27,000 in Oct 1998 to over $1,000,000
ytd. I credit your stock picks for $400,000 of this gain in the
last two months....as the DOW fell over 1,000 points.LOL I made
money on BRNC LOOK ENGA GBLX ZANY IMAA. My three biggest winners
though are CMRC IWOV and VIGN. These three picks alone have made
me over $300,000. The disapl and dd that you speak of so often has
also helped me be a better trader....I now cut my losses at 3 to
5% ( capital preservation) and I take the time to research every
pick before I buy, these two things have made a big difference in
my trading profits.
Thanks again and God bless you and your family

Subject: Thanks
Just wanted to say thanks for all your help. I've been a member
for several months now, about 6 or 7 I think. Haven't been able
to trade for the last 3 months but paid for your services anyway.
Never knew when I would be able to get on line and trade and wanted
to be ready. Finally got some time off and logged on and made some
money. Surprising to me in this market. I am a retired police officer
and have to supplement my income, I am trying to do it by trading.
I made 1100.00 Friday and am up 1250.00 for today (haven't sold
yet) so anything can happen. All I need is about 1000.00 a month
extra income and I can truly retire. I truly beleive that with your
advise I can do this but I don't have the confidence in myself yet
so I must wait . I beleive I will get better and I have since I
first joined. I don't care to become rich, I just want to make it
on my own (at home trading). I've read every book you posted (twice).
So I am a learned person, I just need the experience. And when you
start trading you learn real quick what those books are really talking
about. I advise anyone that is interested in trading to read first,
IT WILL save you money. This is too long already, so thanks Joe.
I just hope you stay around awhile. I need more time before I can
go it alone, if I ever decide to do that.

Dear joe, I've been a mamber for about 5 months. i have made a
lot of money following your advice, but money is money! there is
one thing more valuable that one of your member e-mail reminded
me off. the way you responded to the e-mail from that member who
had just lost a sister put everything in prespective and gave me
a new found respect for you. you showed everyone that you are not
about money,money,money....of course we(capitalists)love it but
the tenderness and caring way you answered to that persons e-mail
gave me a higher high tan the best trade i could ever make, and
showed me the true meaning of life!I hope you are proud of yourself
because you should be!i sure am!!!

Subject: SA
Dear Joe:
I wanted to thank you for continuing to beat up the newbies. In
my case I have been a serious trader for 3 years. I was first trained
in the Wade Cook program(s)and have been sucessful using some of
their methods. I have been consistently in the 80-85% winning trade
range. I thought that I was a trader,but I was really just fooling
myself. I read all of the books, I have fast execution, level 2
for 3 years....all of the tools, but I wasn't a trader. When I joined
SA 5 months ago I proved that I wasn't a trader. Losing money sobered
me and crushed my ego. It was hard for me, a person who teaches
chart analysis and options trading, to admit that I picked a loser.
Watching and listening as a premimum member has allowed me to know
that we continue to learn and we should be quiet and pluck the little
jewels of trading wisdom from the real traders. Perhaps newbies
should be blocked from commenting for 30 days after joining. They
would benefit greatly.
Looking forward to meeting yourself and some of the other real traders.
I made $6K on black Friday so I guess that I am teachable!

Dear Joe,
I guess I would like to add myself to the list of traders with
a few years of experience, yet not focusing nor "seeing the light".
I have had great gains and great losses. Much learning and still
so much more to learn.
I believe what your service does best is to help members to "focus"
better. I always tell myself that I would be a better trader if
I just stopped second-guessing myself. You're really helping in
that regard. Since I joined this month, I can honestly say, your's
is the first advisory service (I have tried a few in the past) that
really stands out. And the best part is.....YOU ARE RIGHT! Thank
you for the recent great picks and advice! (GBLX, VISX, ZANY, ......
and CNCX - which you are not mentioning in yr ems btw)
But Joe, I have to admit that I am always the sceptic. Years of
being ripped off have taught me to be that way out of necessity.
(DD ya know) When I saw that Truthseeker press release, I said to
myself, "Wow - what if all this "pump and dump" talk were somewhat
true? What if I am being "led" to take a large position in ZANY
and then have it crap out on me".
I admit I lost some faith when I saw ZANY open at 12 on friday.
I sold half my position. Then I watched as ZANY bounced back. I
wish I had kept those shrs. I think my selling was solely due to
the Truthseeker release. Which incidentally made me lose focus.
Never again Joe, I promise !
Many Thanks and good luck to you and all SA members!

Subject: Thanks
Joe,
I am sending you this note to thank you and tell you how much
I appreciate being a member of SA. You have a great thing going
here. I have seen you say in the chat room that the Hedge Fund will
be how you make a ligitimate name for yourself and leave something
for your kids. In my opinion you have already done that. But I wish
you continued success with everything you venture into.
I have been a SA member for about 3 months. And was recently down
significantly do to stupidity. I've read all the info on the web
site (several times), read a number of the recommended books, and
spend lots of time doing DD. Then I went right ahead and did the
opposite of what I learned. I knew what I was doing wrong but had
no discipline to fix it. Three weeks ago my starting capital had
dwindled by 65%. Then I started reading the recovery plans on the
web site on a regular basis and found some discipline to use stop
losses and trade smart. I also gave up on becoming a millionare
overnight. Now, three weeks later I have my starting capital back
(which works out to about a 300% percent gain in 3 weeks). What
took me 4 months to lose, I got back in 3 weeks. Again, I have to
thank you, without all the education from you and the members of
SA I would probably be done trading for a long time. Now, I feel
like I'm just get started and the sky is the limit. I look forward
to meeting you someday.
Real Happy Here!

Subject: Value in DD
These e-mails I get all day from SA <--- WOW!
I do a lot of research and DD work and I know how much time this
takes to find the real gems amongst all the stocks that there are.
I also know that actually finding this stuff requires a lot more
than just a search engine. You have to filter a lot of crap to sort
out the stuff that is worthwhile. You also have to know where to
look, make phone calls to IR department and do a lot of reading
between the lines. My hat's off to you TJ, to you and your staff,
for sleuthing out this information and getting it out to your members
in such a timely fashion.
This is more proof (to me) that you are not the "P&D man" that
people say you are. This is the crap that is being spread in the
message threads and certain other chat rooms. I think they are just
scared or envious of SA and the TJ Man....
These continual and informative em's from SA are proof that you
perform the research and the DD, you trade your picks, and you walk
your talk.
I have experienced "P&D" first hand (and holding the bag). I have
been in a lot of other chat rooms in the past 3 years some for "free"
and some for "fee". I think I finally found a home!
Glad to be with you and the SA members,

Dear TJ-
I have been with you for 3 months now. Because I am a public school
teacher who also has a public school teacher salary, I cannot write
you saying I made all the big bucks I read about on the previous
letter. But I can say you have given me more than $$$- you have
given me hope-hope that I can use my persistence coupled your knowledge
and experience into a second income which will help me help my kids
through college and some other things single school teachers couldn't
possibly do or afford. I have managed about $1500 avg. the 3 months
I have been with you and I have done much paper trading and been
quite conservative as I must teach eight hours a day. That almost
equals my monthly teaching salary!!! - and the market certainly
has not been tremendous. On top of that I have truly learned much
about the market and many other things. For all this and for all
you give in the future goes my sincere thanks!!!

Joe,
Thanks for all of your insight! After 8 yrs with professional
stock brokers I knew that I had to do something different. I joined
your club, studied the home page, paper traded, absorbed your warnings,
memorized the rules and perform my dd.
I also appreciate the added insight in many of the emails. I am
a business consultant/accountant and I know how important instinct
& experience is for clients to absorb. I pay particular attention
to absorbing your instinct and style. So far, ( six months) I am
averaging 110% annual return. Only reason the return is not higher
is because I am stubborn at positioning stop loss. Stop loss is
emotionaly hard to due, but I think I have it through my thick head
at last.
Thanks for everything, keep up the good work with us. Appreciated

Subject: My First Month With The SA (Testimonial from a Newbie Schmuck)
Hi joe,
Yeah, I'm a newbie schmuck. I joined the SA one month ago, and my
portfolio is up 40%. When I joined, I thought like most newbie schmucks,
all I had to do was get the EM and buy the stock, then sell it at
a higher price. Yeah right! I learned after I was stopped out of
my first trade that I was way in over my head. I went to the members
pages and read everything twice. I re-read some of the books, and
just watched, day after day. No L2, no premimum service, and a slow
28k connection, I knew not to even try! I started doing my own DD
on the EM's and started selectively buying only the stocks that
I knew I could handle. GPS @ 32, WFC @38, and yes GBLX, lots of
GBLX. GBLX was a no brainer ever for a newbie schmuck with my hardware.
When it broke through 27, I doubled-down, and profited! I would
have never had the insight to get into any of these positions without
your tips! Thank you very much. I will not be renewing my subscription
next month, I will be on vacation to Amsterdam, and then to Greece.
Where I will enjoy the trip that much more with the profits from
your service. When I get back I'll re-subscribe (to the premimun
service of course), get a faster connection and L2. Yeah I know
I have so much to learn but I think with time and paper-trades I
will be much better off!!
Thank you VERY MUCH!

tj, i know how busy you are, am sure that you must spend as much
time planning as you do trading each day. I am very pleased with
the experience i am having with the society. Your calls are timely,
and your expertise is very evident. I was especially fortunate that
you were soo persistant about buying global crossing. Your attention
to detail, insightful understanding of their business sector, and
willingness to put your neck on the line, pushed me to take some
large positions in gblx. I don't want to seem to brag, but i am
proud of the following. i bought 7kshares average price of 24 3/4,
of which i still hold the majority of them. I bought a 40 lot of
the october 25 call options at 5/8 and sold them shortly thereafter
for 5$, and i bought frontier stock before global crossing closed
the acquisition with them for a 10k profit. all told, a profit of
about 60k, plus some given some scalping. I clearly would not have
stayed with this, save your constant table pounding . thank you

I've been following your picks under current alerts on web page

others at SA...The first day of following your trades was today
and I finished with a gain of $8,250 (CYBS, VIXL) and I still have
1000 VIXL and 3000 LPAC with small gains going into trading tomorrow...Not
bad for my first day with SA...What can I say???
Thank you so much for sharing your stock research and trading recommendations...
Although I did not chat today, it was great to have your ongoing
comments and recommendations in real-time...Do I think this investment
was worth it??? With my MBA in one hand and my HP-12C calculator
in the other ($8,250/$200 = 41.25 months), I can now use your outstanding
services for 41 months with a cost of $200...Now that is what I
