About Eric

Eric Wood discovered the world of trading during the dot com boom, but was focused more on real estate investments. After several years, Eric wanted to find new opportunities and began trading penny stocks. Although Eric did not have much structure to his strategy (self-admittedly), he saw great success in the market which led him to start polishing his strategy of shorting "pump and dump" stocks. Eric joined the Investors Underground chat room in hopes of finding the tools he needed to broaden his trading style. After just 2 weeks, he knew he found something special after seeing Nate's consistently profitable trading. Now, Eric continues to profit from his short-biased strategy while moderating the Investors Underground momentum room.
