I am an ex-con and a former heroin addict/carrier criminal. I've done time all over the country; from NY to CA. I've been in Attica with Mark Chapman and Corcoran with Charles Manson. After spending years in prison reading anything and everything I could get my hands on pertaining to finance and the economy, I decided that the real crooks did a lot less heavy lifting than I was used to, so I might as well give it a try - and now I trade stocks. I've had an inordinate amount of success in picking them, and I have an eerie ability to be able to call where a particular stock's price is going to by analyzing historical charts.

You can follow my trades throughout the day on Twitter under the pseudonym Lord Blankfiend.
