What are penny stocks?
A Low-priced, Speculative Security The definition of a penny stock varies depending on who you ask. Some consider any stock trading under $5 to be a penny stock while others… consider any stock trading under a dollar to be a penny stock. These stocks are often traded off of the major exchanges and are bought and sold as Pink Sheets or off the Bulletin Boards. There are large risks associated with speculating on penny stocks. They can be easily manipulated by large investors like hedge funds. The bid ask spread can be large and serve as a significant barrier to making a profit. Also, the lack of liquidity can make it difficult to get in and out of your investment and cause quick price fluctuations. One thing to think about is that very seldom if ever does a stock start off as a penny stock so the stock has already had some difficulties to get to where it is at now.

How To Invest Wisely in Penny Stocks?
Investing wisely has a lot to do with knowing when to buy a penny stock and doing your Due Diligence. I answered many questions here related to this general question, make sur…e to review my past postings. I'll go over Due Diligence as a major focus in wise investing. Doing your Due Diligence, simply means doing your homework on a company before investing in its stock. You really want to look at the company's financial statements to see if the company is doing well. If it is on the verge of bankruptcy, you really should stay out of investing in it. Due Diligence can include, but is not limited to: -Reading past press releases by the company for positive or negative news that might affect the price of the stock. -Look to see if there is a large daily average of traders trading the stock on any given day. -Make sure that there is a high volume of trades per day, you don't want to buy a stock and get stuck with it because there are no traders wanting to buy the stock. -Call the company, make sure you get an answer, and research their address to make sure that they are a real company and not just some shack in the middle of a desert road, incorporated in Nevada, selling stocks that are not even worth sand they are built on. Due Diligence is doing anything and everything in your power and control to ensure that your invested dollars, euros, yen, etc. are in good working hands.

Most companies are required to file statements about their business including financial statements that show their balance sheet and income statements. Exchanges such as the O…TCBB and especially the Pink Sheets have much more lax requirements so there is much less certainty in the viability of the company. The second reason is lower priced stocks can have much larger percentage price swings. For example, if you own shares of a stock at .05 and the stock drops to .03, it has just dropped 40% in value. If you were betting a small amount of money on a stock that you thought would go up, this may be acceptable, but most people would not put large amounts of their retirement savings on a stock that could drop 40% in a few seconds.

When the time is right to sell, you place a "limit sell" order indicating the number of shares you wish to sell.
