Finding Penny Stocks

Penny stocks are low priced stocks that are not traded on the major exchanges. They are traded on the Pink Sheets and/or the OTCBB which stands for the Over the Counter Bulletin Board. A stock can be listed on both the Pink Sheets and the OTCBB. Penny stocks may also be referred to as micro-cap stocks and can be recognized by the designation of .pk at the end of the stock symbol. Although the SEC defines penny stocks as those under $5, most investors consider penny stocks as anything under $1. Finding penny stocks worth buying is a goal of many adventurous investors.

You are not going to have much luck if you rely on a professional broker, because many brokers refuse to trade penny stocks because of the risk involved. Penny stock trading is definitely a do-it-yourself venture. There are many websites where you can open investment accounts and trade penny stocks. They include Noble Trading, Scottrade and E-Trade. You're not working with an individual broker but rather entering your own buy and sell orders via the site. Most of these sites have an account minimum of at least $1000 or more. They are easy to use and you can be trading stocks in minutes after creating an account.

Penny stock trading is a risky venture that can pay off or cause you to lose money. Small amounts of money make a big difference in the world of penny stocks. If a penny stock falls a few cents, you could lose a substantial amount of money. However, the opposite also applies. There are opportunities for big profits which is why so many investors trade penny stocks despite the substantial risks. The key to becoming more successful with these stocks is learning which ones make good investments and which ones don't. You can find a great deal of information on the Internet that can help you.

When finding penny stocks on the Internet, use trusted resources that have a good history of success. If a stock recommendation service cannot provide proof of a successful trading history, steer clear. You may want to join some message boards and forums devoted to making money with penny stocks. There are also software programs that can be helpful for many investors looking for guidance. These programs are called stock picking bots and use computer technology to choose promising stocks based on your specifications.
