Was going to short JBII on the premise that its news release was misleading, but I forgot I can't short OTC/PK stocks. It *is* going down from yesterday though on huge selloffs.

BCCI is on a run currently.  Was one of the couple coffee stocks also running last week (I was in JCOF at the time).  Sadly I don't have any settled funds in it due to just finishing buying DRL. -_-

BCCI at $.16 (now $.25++)

300% gains from me today on the virtual system:

Goes to show what can happen if I just kept my mornings free and had a margin account (to skip waiting 2 days between trades).  Sigh - one day I guess.

On per request, I'll start posting a few less risky stocks I find.  I'm currently looking at the following:

DRL at $1.64 - Volume just looks good
DRL

DUSA at $5.50 - Oversold going into recent earnings announcement
DUSA

SYMX at $3.44 - Earnings coming on Tuesday
SYMX


Got a few more people trading now.  If you haven't started trading already, I hope you do so soon. Tongue

Am in JCOF from $.205 this morning.  Got out of RPC a while ago - that stock never picks up on its own momentum, so I need to stop considering it. ;D

Again, I encourage you guys to just pick a stock and put it in your portfolio at least.  It doesn't take more than a couple minutes, and then later when you want to do something more serious, you can put maybe an hour into looking things up:

I'm going to purposely stay in red there until more of you sign up - don't make me go below zero!  Angry

Summer approaching - I hope you guys take the opportunity to try out the virtual system here:

Would be great to trade as a group rather than by yourself all the time. Smiley

Currently into RPC at $.48 - good news came out today and the chart looks very clean (clear step-like pattern moving upwards).

Hope someone did nicely in ELTP there - would have been an easy 30%. Grin

Into BRZL at $.008 right now.  There's rumor of reverse merger but I'll probably won't hold it for that long.  There's some speculation that it'd get to $.02 but that's a little extreme I think.

*sigh* so few others investing.  Anyways, midterms are over so I have a little time to watch things again.  Currently holding SINX - up 40% so far this week. Grin

Here comes my swing back up past the 0% gain line again lol - going to keep hovering below and above that till more of you join in. <_<

So many stocks went up today. Grin

Here are a few to look at if you guys still haven't bought anything yet:
https://www.pftq.com/stock_sys/

SNWT at $.024 (I bought this one) - very large volume spike this morning
SNWT

AMOK at $.69 - room to move till $1 but might have hit resistence already... would see if it can get to $.75 first.
AMOK

These three have just finished pullbacks (reversing from short-term decline); they might not go up as high as the previous peaks unless the volume increases more.

TDCP at $.082, resistance at $.090 to break
TDCP

PRAN at $3.20, support at $3 to stay above
PRAN

Bought into ACTC a little bit high this morning:
ACTC

I don't expect the stock to stay up for very long though (look at the past spikes), so any sign of falling and I'll sell.

Also a reminder that you can trade virtually on my website now:
https://www.pftq.com/stock_sys/

Just make sure you're logged in and then it works just like a real brokerage account.  Have fun. Smiley

hey how does the quote search engine work, is the database very limited?

It is restricted to stocks.  For pinksheets/OTC, you have to include the extension - such as CWRN.PK for pinksheets.

What stock are you trying to buy and what error?

Might sell at .018 depending on how well it handles that resistence point.

Back into ACTC at $.20; volume starting to pick up again.  If you watch the daily chart, this would be its third run but it has yet to break $.26 (if it doesn't again, I'm out).

Into ACTC at $.24.  Missed it last Friday because no funds settled yet, but it's currently pulling back.  It is a bit high already so I'm watching closely.  Only in it because the volume and momentum is good.

ACTC at $.24

Ditched DNN for SHZ and XING, which are both running on news of China's new policies relating to rare earth metals.

SHZ is way overbought but I'm just buying into the momentum on expecting of a gapup tomorrow.
SHZ

XING is not as crazy but has more room to move up.

Just bought into DNN at $3.30.  This is one of my longer chart plays and it just finished its recent pullback.  I have a whole list of these stocks if you guys want more like it.

In the mean time bought into VYEY.  I passed on this so many times yesterday but just read on CNN news that they won $17M from lawsuit, which would price their shares at least $.13 but it's only $.04 (as usual, don't count on the price actually getting to the estimate).

VYEY at $.05

Found this on screener today.  Really like the steady increase over the past weeks (though it makes me wonder why it didn't come up before).  Going to keep it on watch until the volume picks up though because it's otherwise very thin.

Hm, didn't like how easily it dipped under $.70.  Got out at $.60 - there was rumor going around that the stock was a scam.  Usually deals like these never go through anyways so go figure.

Sold this one way to early at $.13 a few weeks back.

SAEI

Bought back in at $.50 just now - bit higher than I would have liked but this news was just released:

This one's less volatile than my usual stocks but it's been on my list for several weeks and has been just steadily moving up.  It opened with a run on high volume for the first time today.

LFBG was previously around .013 and climbing but it plummetted on news of a reverse split coming.  The reverse split was cancelled today based on the CEO's survey of shareholders though, so fundamentally it should return to former levels.  We'll see. Tongue

Reverse merger info is supposed to come out in the 10-Q Monday afterhours.  I probably won't keep my whole position until then and more or less buy back in Tuesday morning if it's a good reaction to the news.

Been watching this one for a while but it broke out without me getting a chance to buy in first.  It's another reverse merger with a 10Q supposedly coming out soon.  A bit high to get into right now, but I might buy in if it pulls back in a couple days (assuming it's not over by then).

Stopped out with a small loss.  Ironic that once I move out of penny stocks I get my first loss in a while. O_o

Market's been really down the last several trading days though so I might just sit out for a bit until things clear up.
