Before you send in your orders, take note: I have NO plans to trade these stocks unless they fit my preferred setups. This is only a watchlist.
The best traders watch more than they trade. That’s what I’m trying to model here. Pay attention to the work that goes in, not the picks that come out.

1. Aeye Inc (NASDAQ: LIDR) — The Autonomous Vehicle AI Stock
My first 2024 penny stock pick is Aeye Inc (NASDAQ: LIDR).
This is an AI runner that might become instrumental in the self-driving revolution. The “eye” is related to its LiDAR (light detection and ranging) technology: The cameras that help cars drive.
My students and I are banking off of this multi-day runner right now.
Here’s an example of a profit that I pulled from LIDR on May 24, with a starting stake of $22,490:
The best part about these plays: The massive percent gain is accessible for small-account traders due to the cheap share price.
Here’s one that my student pulled off:
Nice Way To Start The Week. $LIDR Multiple Entries. $4.01 AVG Buy, Sell @$4.30AVG. Little Bit Of Botched Trade At The Open. Nice ⭐️ $208+ Profit In 3 Mins. $201.06 For The Day. 📈🚀 Onto The Next Trade. 🏃🏽♂️@timothysykes pic.twitter.com/Kt354RDQSl

LIDR’s multi-day volatility makes it a perfect trade setup for me and my students. And it’s not over yet. Prices are still consolidating …
Keep an eye on Breaking News for any other big moves!
2. OneMedNet Corporation (NASDAQ: ONMD) — The Medical Data AI Stock
My second 2024 penny stock pick is OneMedNet Corporation (NASDAQ: ONMD).
On May 23 during premarket hours the company announced more than a five-fold growth of its iRWD network.
iRWD is a service that aims to connect and utilize real-world repositories (RWD) of existing healthcare clinics.
The system also “de-identifies” the data, making it accessible for medical studies while preserving the privacy of patients. And AI is at the heart of the network.
As a result of the news, take a look at the 550%* spike below. Every candle represents five minutes:
I traded it on day two for a 15% profit.
My trade notes are below, with a starting stake of $5,806.
The chart shows a breakout level around $3.
Here’s how a trader should approach this setup: Set an alert on StocksToTrade around the $2.50 level. If prices can push above that resistance, we could see it test $3 and work toward a multi-day breakout.

3. Siyata Mobile Inc (Nasdaq: SYTA) — The AI-Powered Handset Maker
My third 2024 penny stock pick is Siyata Mobile Inc (Nasdaq: SYTA).
This company makes reliable radios for two-way communication. It’s touted as more secure and reliable than cellular interaction while on the job.
Take a look at the company’s product website below:
As for its connection to artificial intelligence … The company’s radios use AI to help with background noise cancellation.
On May 22, the company announced it delivered hundreds of SD7 radios and accessories to luxury resorts in Nassau, Bahamas after a successful trial run.
The stock spiked 100%* as a direct result. But the momentum didn’t last long and it gave back ALL of its gains by the end of the day.
That’s why it’s important to follow my trading framework and take gains! My students and I don’t invest in these companies. We’re here to trade the short-term volatility.
I pulled 5% from the SYTA spike before sellers took control.
My trade notes are below, with a starting stake of $11,220:
There are likely a TON of bagholders from the spike on May 22. I’m wary of a follow-up move unless the stock spikes with a massive trading volume.
The stock traded 45 million shares on May 22 … If it pushes to new highs, I’m looking for a trading volume that’s similar or larger to push through all the bagholders.
4. Cyngn Inc (NASDAQ: CYN) — The Driverless Tech FFIE Sympathy Play
My fourth 2024 penny stock pick is Cyngn Inc (NASDAQ: CYN).
In May we saw one of the biggest stock spikes EVER.
Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIE) spiked 9,600%* in a single week.
When we see a stock spike like that, it often sends ripples of bullish momentum through the market. And it causes sympathy-play stocks to spike.
Sympathy plays are stocks in the same sector and of a ‘similar size’ as the original runner.
When FFIE turned full supernova on May 16, CYN, another automobile stock trading under $1, started to push higher.
In total, CYN spiked 120%*. I pulled a 15% profit. My trade notes are below, with a starting stake of $7,125:
This stock is still holding some of its gains!
On May 16 the company had also announced scaling up its autonomous vehicle solutions in 2024.
It’s possible the increased operations will lead to more bullish press releases in the near future. Keep this stock on your watchlist.
5. AERWINS Technologies Inc (NASDAQ: AWIN) — The Micromobility Meme Stock on Short Squeeze Watch
My fifth 2024 penny stock pick is AERWINS Technologies Inc (NASDAQ: AWIN).
In May we saw a resurgence of meme stock volatility thanks to Keith Gill’s long awaited return to X under the social media tag: Roaring Kitty.
Gill posted a cryptic message to X on Sunday, May 12 after a multi-month hiatus. And the next day, popular meme stocks like GameStop Corporation (NYSE: GME) started to spike again.
I wrote about the whole story in this blog post.
AWIN’s May spike started as a meme squeeze. The price spiked 260%* on May 15 — I traded it for a 16% profit.
My trade notes are below, with a starting stake of $8,008:
The price sank after the first day of spiking.
But it started up again on May 28 after the company announced an EPS of $12.12.
So far the stock managed to spike 140%*. There could be more juice in the tank.
Match the price action to my 7-Step Framework.
6. MicroCloud Hologram Inc (NASDAQ: HOLO) — The Meme Stock With an AI Pump in its Past
My sixth 2024 penny stock pick is MicroCloud Hologram Inc (NASDAQ: HOLO).
In 2023 it spiked twice, 650%* and 350%*, thanks to the AI-industry momentum.
In February 2024, HOLO spiked 6,400%* in a massive short squeeze.
That’s what made it a meme stock …
When Keith Gill reignited the meme momentum in the middle of a red-hot 2024 AI market, HOLO was a no-brainer stock to watch.
The price spiked 140%* alongside the other meme runners like GME.
I was in the right place at the right time and I pulled an 8% profit, with a starting stake of $8,150:
In case the meme momentum comes back … HOLO has a spot at the top of my watchlist.
7. Parazero Technologies Ltd (NASDAQ: PRZO) — The Drone Safety Penny Stock
My seventh 2024 penny stock pick is Parazero Technologies Ltd (NASDAQ: PRZO).
This is a big runner from April. The stock spiked 130%* as a result of increased tensions between Israel and Iran.
Take a look at the chart below, every candle represents one trading day:
Unfortunately, the war in the Middle East continues.
I always hope for peace between all people! It’s never my intention to root for conflict.
But as a trading mentor, it’s also my job to point out the best trade opportunities. Sometimes as a result of rising geopolitical tensions.
As the conflict continues in the Middle East, stay vigilant. PRZO could offer a follow-up spike at any time …
8. WiSA Technologies (NASDAQ: WISA) — The Wireless Sound Penny Stock With Partnership News
My eighth 2024 penny stock pick is WiSA Technologies (NASDAQ: WISA).
This company boasts about its sound products for “intelligent devices” and home entertainment systems.
The mention of intelligent devices alludes to artificial intelligence. And on the front of the company’s page is the NVDA logo (the market’s #1 AI powerhouse right now).
Take a look below:
Share prices already spiked 520%* in April.
I traded that move three separate times for a total profit of $2,775.*
And on May 9, the company announced a partnership with CITECH to combine WiSA’s technology with CITECH’s line of media streamers. CITECH also plans to use WiSA’s technology in a line of speakers.
The stock didn’t spike much in response to the news …
But we know that the stock CAN spike thanks to the April move. And we know that the company can send out bullish press releases thanks to the May 9 announcement.
Eventually, those two factors should line up for another glorious spike.
9. Rent the Runway (NASDAQ: RENT) — The AI-Powered Fashion Stock
My ninth 2024 penny stock pick is Rent the Runway (NASDAQ: RENT).
On April 11, the company announced quarterly revenue numbers along with upbeat comments from the company’s top officials.
It was described that RENT was finally turning a corner toward profitability.
But as a penny stock whose company allows users to rent or buy designer apparel … I had my doubts.
Regardless of the long-term reality behind this trashy stock, the chart shows an impressive multi-month run. Take a look below, every candle represents one trading day:
The whole move measures 460%*.
And as you can tell, the price is still elevated. There’s a chance it consolidates and pushes toward the highs. Especially considering the float is only 2 million shares.
Stocks with a low float (low supply of shares) can spike higher when demand increases.
It’s the simple law of supply and demand.
And it’s why we focus on low-float runners. When it comes to penny stock trading, our goal is to find stocks with a float below 10 million shares.
RENT definitely fits the bill.
10. Onfolio Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: ONFO) — The Holding Company With an AI Pump in Its Past
My tenth 2024 penny stock pick is Onfolio Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: ONFO).
On January 4, the company announced it would acquire RevenueZen, a search-engine optimization company focused on dealing with new challenges posed by AI.
The news didn’t gain much traction, but it solidified itself as a potential AI runner.
Then, shares started to spike on Monday, May 20 as the company announced quarterly revenue data.
For the fourth quarter of 2023, ONFO reported -$0.14 EPS and a revenue of $1.59 million. Believe it or not, this was good news — the company is getting closer to profitability.
Thus far the spike measures 150%*. And prices are consolidating near the highs. Plus, StocksToTrade shows the float is only 3.2 million shares.
This AI pump earnings winner has all the elements it needs to spike higher. Let’s see what happens …

Is Now the Right Time To Trade Stocks?
Now is the right time to trade stocks… IF the following things are all true:
- You’ve studied chart patterns
- You maintain several watchlists
- You’ve built a good trading plan
- You’re disciplined enough to follow your trading plan
- You take small gains, and cut your losses quickly
Get it? Self-sufficient traders can trade in any market. Work on your trading skills, not picking hot stocks.
In the end, the only results that matter are the ones in your trading account.
It all starts with your watchlists. I keep several watchlists, so I can track different market trends.
That way, if one sector suddenly gets hot, I can quickly pivot and find the best trading opportunities…
These are the top stocks I’m watching this month!
How to Choose the Best Stocks to Trade
Choosing the best stocks to trade isn’t like rolling dice. You’ve got to do your due diligence — that involves research, technical analysis, and chart study.
Avoid the hype and bad information around penny stocks. Most of these companies are sketchy. That’s why their prices are cheap.
They are not “going to the moon” anytime soon. Just hitch a ride with them until they hit resistance or your goal.
And cut your losses quickly!
What are the Different Types of Stocks?
There are a ton of different types of stocks.
I teach my students to think in terms of hot sectors and cap size. The thing we really care about are hot sectors — like artificial intelligence, EV stocks, and even niche sectors like Chinese IPOs.
Verrrrry cool to see how far this $HKD Supernova has gone, it's up another 50% since my tweet just a few hours ago when it was in the $120s…now $190s, YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS KIND OF SUPERNOVA SPIKER! Good timing for my free https://t.co/fAEEdTs666 webinar tonight, THE EXACT TOPIC! https://t.co/np1x03vTvg

Market cap (the total value of all shares of a stock) is also a big differentiator. These are the categories:
- Mega-cap: $200 billion and up
- Large-cap: $10 billion–$200 billion
- Mid-cap: $2 billion–$10 billion
- Small-cap: $250 million–$2 billion
- Micro-cap: Under $250 million
The market is a game of supply and demand. When demand increases, stocks with a smaller supply will make bigger price moves.
That’s why market cap matters. A stock like Bank of America Corp (NYSE: BAC) is under $30 per share…
But it’s a mega-cap stock. It won’t make a big move unless it has some earth-shaking news.
Check out my article on small-cap stocks here!
Lastly, let’s talk about growth stocks, dividend stocks, and value stocks.
Growth stocks are the analyst favorites, with sales, revenue, and earnings constantly on the rise. The business behind them usually attracts a good amount of customers. Their future growth estimates and profit target are probably several times what they are now.
Dividend stocks are investments, not stocks I recommend for trading. They generate income — but these returns can’t match what small-gains trading can bring in. They’re not exactly “safe” either — look into a CD or ETFs if you’re looking for that.
Value stocks have more in the way of fundamental strength, but they’re overlooked by analysts and the markets.

Know the Risks Before You Buy
You can’t avoid risk — but you can manage it.
I trade very sketchy stocks. The way I manage risk is by knowing these stocks are sketchy.
That means reading analyst opinions even if you don’t follow them. Is the company management shaky? Are their products and services lacking? Is their entire advertising budget going to Twitter promoters?
Well, then maybe you shouldn’t hold them overnight.
Final Takeaways
Remember…
The only thing you can do quickly in the market is blow up your account.
Trading isn’t about riding the hype train best — it’s about understanding the data, capitalizing on volatility, and following your trading plan.
Inflation and mortgage rates are things that investors worry about. We’re not maintaining a successful portfolio, we’re stacking small gains.
The world of trading has as many strategies as there are traders. I’ve found that the most profitable strategy for small-account traders is a very conservative one. During turbulent markets with high potential for a recession, I leave the home runs to others — I’m most concerned about protecting my account.
Aim small, miss small. That’s the only way you can get trading to deliver on your greater goals.
If you’re ready to embark on this journey, I’ve got a lot more to teach…
