Bob: I have seen MANY people make millions on penny stocks. Unfortunately none of them were investors....mostly brokers,insiders and promoters.

RG - You raise many good points. The main thing is you need to know yourself, and be willing to risk it all, otherwise you will get puny returns.

25 cents to over 15 dollars, they would be a multimillionare.

The problem with is, almost no one, unless they are the owner or work for the company and have stock options, Ever hold a stock from bottom to top.. They get greedy and take their profits and move on..

So, such a reflection on a stocks move proves nothing.

Don

What is a penny stock? What is a quality stock?

Now y'all are talking "day" trades, right. 8 hours. I simply point out that a stock selling for 2.00 goes up an 1/8 and you get Don's return. yes with spreads you need a little more move. But it is there. Why should earnings even be a concern? you only want price movement. Stocks under $20 will move faster ad further on an average.

"What ifs" make the world go around. It makes buy and hold or daytradig look attractive. Back testing is a "what if". you can loose money in any price stock. or any length of trade. most everything we do is based on "what ifs".

The problem I see is the lack of a plan or system that would identify The entry and exits on trades, day or otherwise.
