Penny Stocks: What They Are and How to Trade Them in 2021🥇

Penny stocks are usually small companies. They might be new, they might be in an up-and-coming sector, or they might even be in danger of going out of business.
I’ve made millions trading penny stocks.*
That’s not typical. But I’ve done it, and so have other traders…
Like Tim Grittani, who’s up more than $13 million* in profits…
Or Mark Croock, who’s made more than $2.5 million* in profits…
Or Michael Goode, who’s made over $2 million.* He actually thought I was full of BS before he gave my strategy a try. Now he’s glad he came around!
And this year, several young traders who’ve been through my Trading Challenge hit big trading milestones.*
Do I have your attention? Good. Let’s talk about one of the most hated — and misunderstood — trading styles out there: day trading penny stocks.

Let’s be real. You probably found this post by googling something like “how to get rich quick trading penny stocks.” Sorry. You won’t get rich quick in this niche. But I can teach you what I’ve learned in more than two decades in the stock market to help you shorten your learning curve.
There’s not some big secret to finding consistency trading penny stocks. It’s about hard work, discipline, and studying. You have to work for slow, steady progress and small wins over time.
(*Please note: My results, along with the results of these top traders, are far from typical. Individual results will vary. Most traders lose money. These top traders and I have the benefit of many years of hard work and dedication. Trading is inherently risky. Do your due diligence and never risk more than you can afford to lose. I’ve also hired many of these top traders to assist in my education business.)

How I Trade Penny Stocks

Millionaire Media, LLCA lot of you probably don’t want to hear this … but most of the money I’ve earned has been in small increments. I aim for singles, not home runs. These days, I trade safe, and I urge my students to do the same.
I’m not right all the time — as you can see from my trades, which are ALL posted publicly — I’m right about 70% of the time.
But it doesn’t matter that I’m wrong sometimes. No trader has a perfect record. What matters is that I take the time to look for the right setups. I’m disciplined about cutting losses. That puts me far ahead of a lot of penny stock traders, who eventually fail because they don’t follow the rules.
I want to teach you how to trade penny stocks intelligently — and that starts with learning the rules of the game.
I’ve been trading for 20+ years and teaching for more than 10.
I’m already rich — I don’t need more money. Every year, I start fresh with a small account. I do this so I can show my students how to trade starting with a small amount of capital.
I trade primarily to teach, and I donate my profits to charity.
Still with me? Good. Hopefully, the get-rich-quick schemers who are too lazy to actually work already clicked off to go blow up their accounts. But if you’ve made it this far, let’s get down to business.
I want to tell you everything you need to know about how to trade penny stocks. We’ll cover what they are, how to get started, and how this style of stock trading is different from any other.
What Are Penny Stocks and What Is Penny Stock Trading?
In spite of the name, ‘penny stock’ actually refers to a stock trading for under $5 per share.
Sure, they could be stocks trading for fractions of a penny, but even a stock trading for $4.95 is still considered a penny stock.
Pennystocking as a verb just means trading penny stocks. But that’s not to say that pennystocking follows the same trajectory as buying and selling regular stocks of large-cap companies like Google or Amazon.
Pennystocking is a unique style of trading that requires a specific strategy and mindset. To start to understand what that means, let’s get into the mechanics of penny stocks.
How Do Penny Stocks Work?
What if I told you I don’t believe in any of the penny stocks I trade?
I know, it sounds pretty cynical — and counterintuitive.
Generally, people think the stock market’s all about finding a company you believe in, then buying and holding its stock for years.
Penny stocks are the opposite. The fact is, most penny stocks will eventually fail. But before they fail, they can experience massive spikes.
Because of their small size, these companies feel the impact of just about any news catalyst in a big way.
A single press release could cause crazy spikes in a stock price … Here’s one example from mid-February when Kronos Advanced Technologies Inc. (OTCPK: KNOS) spiked over 100% in less than an hour.

As a penny stock trader, my approach relies on finding patterns within these kinds of spikes and taking advantage of short-term price movements in the market.
Remember: these aren’t long-term holdings like blue-chip stocks. The goal is to take advantage of the short-term movements of a volatile market with tight risk management.
Penny Stocks to Watch in 2021
At any given time, there’s a trending sector or two in the stock market.
But since the crash in early 2020, the stock market’s been on fire. Volatility’s been unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
The best thing traders can do during times like these? Be prepared.
I’m prepared. My students are prepared. When the market provides opportunities, we’re on top of them.
I made more than $1 million in 2020 — as opposed to about $125K in 2019.*
It’s not because I suddenly got a lot smarter. And it’s not because I started with a bigger account. I start each year fresh with a small account because my focus is on teaching. But the opportunities have been there.
The market right now is exceptional. Are you ready?
To get up to speed, check out “The Volatility Survival Guide.” This is my no-cost, two-hour guide to help you understand the current volatile market. And it can help with any future market volatility, too.
I also maintain a list of monthly penny stocks to watch.
You can start your trading journey with my new 30-Day Trading Bootcamp. Trading Challenge moderator Matthew Monaco helped me put this together. Even some more experienced traders are amazed by this guide. And the price is outrageously low.
Learn more about the 30-Day Bootcamp here. (FYI, you don’t have to complete it in 30 days. You can go through it at your own pace and repeat it as often as you need.)
Examples of Recent Penny Stock Runners
The crazy market we saw in 2020 is continuing in 2021. We’ve seen SO many crazy runners and OTC stocks have been HOT.
Here are just a few examples of the insane runners we’ve seen in this market…
Ozop Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTCPK: OZSC)
OZSC was a sub-penny stock in January 2020. Then it went on a run thanks to news, a crazy market, and hot sector momentum…
The company is in the power conversion business which got hot thanks to electric vehicle plays. When Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) had a huge run and stock split in 2020, it created a hot sector and demand for other EV stocks.
That spilled over into battery, charging, and lithium mining stocks.
The stock started running in January after it announced a new subsidiary in the renewable energy market.
I traded it 15 times between January and early February for total profits of $36,928.41.*
(*Please note: My results are far from typical. Individual results will vary. Most traders lose money. I have the benefit of years of hard work, dedication, and experience. Trading is inherently risky. Do your due diligence and never risk more than you can afford to lose.)

Tesoro Enterprises, Inc. (OTCPK: TSNP)
Up until November 2020, TSNP was a flooring and wall covering supplier. Then the company announced a merger with a global payments and financial services company.
The new company’s goal is to provide digital payment services. When they announced the news, the stock was trading around half a cent per share.
Fast forward to February and the company announced a name change and the creation of a block exchange-traded index to offer customers access to blockchain trading markets.
Sounds exciting, right? That’s exactly the kind of hype I want to take advantage of in my trading. Do I believe it — nope, of course not. But I’ll trade the price action and my patterns.
Check this out: The beginning of the stock’s run started at half a cent per share and rose to a high of $1.93. That’s a 38,000% increase in price.
But I don’t buy these stocks and hold. I buy morning spikes and breakouts on the way up and morning panic dip buys on the way down.
I traded the stock 35 times between November and mid-February and made profits totaling $125,834.45.*
It’s a good example of how I use a process I’ve developed over 20+ years to trade stocks in hot sectors with hyped-up press releases.

MedMen Enterprises Inc. (OTCQX: MMNFF)
Here’s another example of a stock in a hot sector.
MMNFF is a cannabis producer based in the U.S. In early February weed stocks were running thanks to Biden’s election and after several senators commenting about the need for legislative changes for marijuana.
Marijuana stocks could gain more momentum if legalization picks up for steam, but this chart is a good example of what happens after penny stocks get too overextended.
This is why I don’t hold penny stocks … And there are a ton of examples of stocks just like this with lessons in my “Pennystocking Framework” DVD. Get it as a bonus with my 30-Day Bootcamp.

Is It Illegal to Trade Penny Stocks?
If everything you know about penny stocks came from movies and TV, you might think that they’re illegal.
False. Trading penny stocks is completely legal.
But it is true that penny stocks can be super shady.
Yes, some penny stocks trade on big exchanges like Nasdaq. But many trade through OTC (over-the-counter) exchanges.
There’s a world of difference in terms of standards between OTCs and Nasdaq- or NYSE-listed stocks. The regulations aren’t as stringent for OTCs, which means there’s a lot more potential for fraudulent behavior.
Here’s the thing … As a penny stock trader, this can actually work in your favor.
There are a ton of schemes around penny stocks, like pumps and overhyped promotions … Your job is to see through them, outsmart them, and take advantage of the short-lived spikes they can create in the market.
The SEC’s Rules for Penny Stocks
The SEC’s rules for penny stocks vary depending on where a stock trades.
Listed stocks (NYSE, Nasdaq, etc.) have strict listing requirements, including financial filings and reporting any material changes that affect the business or the stock.
Stocks trading on the OTC markets don’t have as many requirements — pink sheet stocks have none. That’s why it’s a buyer-beware market. And it’s why I get in and out of trades on these stocks quickly. I don’t invest in penny stocks and I never hold and hope.
How to Start Trading Penny Stocks the Right Way

Millionaire Media, LLCWhat’s the wrong way to trade penny stocks?
Believe that these tiny companies will change the world, then cry about your decimated account when the stocks inevitably crash and burn.
Sure, a penny stock could turn into the next big thing. But it probably won’t.
So what’s the right way to trade penny stocks?
Trust no one. Know in your heart that most of these companies won’t succeed … but they could experience some huge spikes before they fade into oblivion.
Once you recognize that most of these stocks will fail, you can learn to trade like a sniper.
There are two key ways to trade penny stocks: long or short.
Going long: In spite of the term, “long” in my trading strategy usually refers to a short-term, buy-and-sell trade. For me, it’s a short-lived affair … intense, then over. OK, sometimes it happens again if the opportunity is right with a repeat runner…
You might see me holding overnight, but you won’t see me holding for weeks or months.
Going short: This means short selling a stock. As a short seller, you operate under the belief that the price will drop.
You borrow shares that you don’t already own from a broker, then sell them when the price drops. Then, you buy them back at the lower price, give them back to the broker, and keep the price difference. Sounds strange, I know, but it’s a thing.
Regardless of whether you go long (buying then selling) or short (borrowing, selling, then buying back), the goal is always to generate a profit. The profits might be small, but they can add up over time.
Who Is This Penny Stock Trading Guide For?
Maybe it’s more important to tell you who this guide isn’t for: people who want to get rich quick.
In spite of what some jerk may say in a YouTube ad, there are no guarantees in the stock market. For every person who strikes gold, there are hundreds –– thousands! –– who blow up their accounts.
Most traders fail. This guide is for those of you who want to trade smart.
It’s for traders who want to understand penny stocks and work toward their goals the right way … over time and with discipline.
Boring, right? I’ll confess: trading isn’t always fun. Executing an order is exciting … But it’s a lot of research, scanning, keeping watchlists, working hard, and waiting for the right setups.
(Sign up for my no-cost weekly watchlist here.)
Truth: for me, trading penny stocks was about getting rich … at first. And I’ve made over $6 million trading these sketchy stocks.
Early on, I bought a bunch of fancy cars … It was great to make my childhood dream a reality, but now I’m over it. Now I donate all my trading profits to charity. And these days, I get the most joy from teaching and my charity Karmagawa.
These might not be your goals. My point? Goals can change. Trading penny stocks could be part of you reaching them, whatever they are.
Stocks vs. Commodities vs. Derivatives vs. Real Estate
There’s a ton of confusion between “investing” and “trading.” Let’s talk about it.
Investments are all over the place: things that you can put your money into with the hope of a return.
I’m not a penny stock investor or an investment advisor — I’m a trading educator who specializes in penny stocks.
Even though I’m a short-term trader and not a long-term investor, I think it’s important to understand investment basics. After all, most rich people have more than one stream of income.
There are four basic categories of investments: stocks, commodities, derivatives, and real estate.
- Stocks are shares of a company. You can buy shares at a particular price, and sell them for either a profit or loss.
- Commodities are physical substances or raw materials that come from the earth. Think gold, silver, oil, wheat.
- Derivatives are investments that take their value from something else. Options are an example of a derivative … Instead of buying or selling a stock directly, you create a contract with the option to buy or sell a certain number of shares at a specific date.
- Real estate is a whole different thing. There are various styles of investing in real estate, including flipping houses sold at auction, renting properties to tenants, developing commercial spaces, and so on. It’s not my scene, but you do you.
Unique Penny Stock Characteristics
Penny stocks aren’t like other stocks.
These are NOT stable, established companies. They’re usually small. They might be new and in an up-and-coming sector. Some might even be in danger of going out of business.
This part’s important: Unless these companies are listed on a bigger exchange, they’re not required to make the same SEC filings as their bigger counterparts.
This means you can’t take things for granted with penny stocks like you might with bigger companies.
Yep … penny stocks can be sketchy.
But it also means that if you’re willing to spend the time to do a little research and look at the charts, you might agree with me that they’re actually pretty simple to trade.

I personally think that you can learn to trade penny stocks a lot faster than you can learn about trading larger securities.
The low price point means you can start trading with a small account and learn as you go. Since you’re only investing small amounts in each play, your returns may be small … but so are your losses. It’s one way to scale up slowly, over time.
Are Penny Stocks Worth It in 2021?
Listen, I’m biased.
Penny stocks have made me millions.*
Are they worth it? Can they help you grow your account? Of course, I think so.
But these are possibilities, not promises. You need to know these things:
- Penny stocks are NOT for every trader.
- You need to have a solid work ethic.
- You need to learn to think for yourself.
- You need to be willing to do research.
- You need to be disciplined to trade penny stocks.
- You need to learn — a LOT.
- You need to be able to stick with your trading plan.
If you can’t do ALL of these things, then penny stocks probably aren’t worth it for you.
But if you’re willing to educate yourself and become a self-sufficient trader, then my vote is yes: I think penny stocks are worth it.
The Risks of Investing in Penny Stocks
Are there risks associated with penny stocks? Oh heck yes. To name a few:
- They’re generally not as regulated as large-cap stocks.
- They’re volatile.
- Most of these companies will fail.
How to Minimize Risk When Trading Penny Stocks
You know what? I don’t like risk.
You don’t need to be an adrenaline junkie to trade penny stocks. In fact, you should hate risk so much that you’re willing to do anything and everything possible to avoid it!
It’s simple logic: If you take huge risks in the stock market, you stand to lose a huge amount of money. In some cases, you could lose even more than you invested in the first place.
Not my idea of a smart trading strategy.
If you want to stay in the game for the long run, focus on discipline, rules, and cutting losses. Practice smart risk management. For example, never invest more than 10% of your trading account on a single play. If you have a small trading account, maybe limit that to 1%.
You need to set your own boundaries based on your risk tolerance. What are you willing to bet on a single play — and what will happen if you’re wrong?
Write down your own rules and stick to them. Need help figuring out the rules? Start here.
How to Develop the Right Mindset for Trading Penny Stocks
You’ve gotta remember: penny stocks are NOT traditional stocks. Trading them requires a specific mindset.
I’ve already told you about adjusting your expectations about the companies behind the stocks … knowing and understanding that most of them will fail.
But another big adjustment is that you need to change your mindset about failure.
In the stock market, failure is unavoidable. If you’re the type of person who always needs to be right, this is not the game for you.
You can’t trade penny stocks without failing at some point. I’ve failed over and over again.
Don’t believe it? Check out my book, “An American Hedge Fund” for no cost. I recount some of my biggest mistakes and losses in full detail.
Instead of trying to avoid failure, resolve to learn from it. If you’re willing to work hard, accept failure, and learn from your mistakes, pennystocking could be right up your alley. You’ll learn that failures can eventually turn into success!
How to Trade Penny Stocks

Millionaire Media, LLCThe first thing that you’ll need to trade penny stocks? An education.
Before you can hope to have any success as a trader, you need to learn what penny stocks are, how they work, and how to identify patterns.
A good starting point? This guide and my student Jamil’s book “The Complete Penny Stock Course.” It covers all the basics and more. From there, if you want to take it to the next level, consider joining my Trading Challenge.
Once you’re ready to actually get started trading, you’ll need a few key things…
Stockbroker
To trade stocks, you need to open a brokerage account. Your broker is the gateway between you and trades. It’s vital to choose a good one … don’t just go with the cheapest one. Do your research and check out this guide for more tips.
Stock Screener
You’ll need to narrow down the many choices of stocks to trade somehow. A stock screener can help you do this. You can use it to filter based on criteria that you set, for instance, percentage gainers with volume, etc. I use StocksToTrade, which can also help you with the next item on the list…
Charting Software
To really get a good overview of a stock’s health, you’ll need to perform detailed stock analysis.
There are two key types of stock analysis: fundamental analysis, where you look at the company itself, and technical analysis, where you look at the stock’s chart and try to find recognizable patterns.
StocksToTrade can help you do both: it’s got awesome charting software, but also links to relevant news, SEC filings, and even social media mentions related to stocks.
Both types of analysis are important, but with penny stocks, technical analysis is more important. I read chart patterns constantly. I want to see how a stock’s performed over weeks, months, or even years. What patterns can I detect in those charts? What might influence forecasted performance?
Trading Plan
You need a trading plan if you want to trade penny stocks. This is like a map where you plot out your entry and exit points. Ideally, you base these numbers on careful research and have the discipline to actually stick to your plan.
Important Stock Terms You Need To Know
Whether you’re trading penny stocks or higher-priced stocks, you’ll need to be familiar with some basic trading terms. Here are a few key ones:
- Buy: To buy shares of stock with the purpose of profiting from a rise in stock price
- Sell: To sell shares of stock to make a profit or prevent further losses
- Short sell: Borrowing stock you don’t own for the purpose of profiting off a stock that dips in price
- Buy to cover: Buying back the shares of stock you sold short to profit
- Bid: The highest price someone else is willing to pay for a stock
- Ask: The asking price for a share of stock
- Spread: The difference between the bid and ask prices
- Uptick: A situation where a subsequent trade is at a higher price than the previous one
- Downtick: The opposite of an uptick

Where to Buy Penny Stocks
Some penny stocks can be found on major exchanges, but you can also trade on over-the-counter (OTC) exchanges. What are they?
Certain stocks don’t meet the requirements of the bigger exchanges for various reasons, such as size, profits, etc.
For companies like these, there’s OTC Markets. OTC stocks tend to be lower in price but higher in risk. They’re generally up-and-coming companies, and OTC listing requirements aren’t as strict as the NYSE or Nasdaq.
Best Brokers for Penny Stocks
I’m not a huge fan of any specific brokers. However, brokers are a necessary evil if you want to trade.
So I go with the two that I think suck the least: E-Trade and Interactive Brokers. In my experience, E-Trade is best for U.S. traders, and Interactive Brokers is mainly for international traders.
I’m not paid to use them — I’m just being transparent.
Mostly, you want a reliable broker that will be able to execute your orders, and that has the stocks and services you’re looking for. I know a lot of people use TD Ameritrade, Schwab, or Robinhood.
Personally, I don’t like Robinhood. Even though they have no minimums, you won’t find a lot of the penny stocks I trade on that platform. A lot of the best stocks are under $2 a share. In my experience, Robinhood isn’t good if you’re specifically looking for low-priced stocks.
If you can have two brokers, it can prove advantageous — especially for day traders who are concerned with the pattern day trader (PDT) rule.
For more information on brokers, check out this post.
How to Find Top Penny Stocks to Trade
Wanna find great stocks to trade? Here’s how to get started.
Using Scanners to Find Penny Stocks
There are thousands of stocks to choose from. You can’t trade them all, and you shouldn’t just trade them randomly.
How can you narrow down the choices? With a stock screener. A stock screener lets you filter based on the criteria that you set. That’s how you can find the best contenders for trades that fit setups that work for you.
I helped create what I consider one of the best screeners out there: StocksToTrade. Designed by traders for traders, this is a one-stop-shop screener that has amazing charting software and research tools, too.
And for traders who are still getting up to speed — it’s got a great paper trading (virtual trading) platform, too.
The StocksToTrade team works hard to add more useful tools to the platform all the time — like a social media search tool and the Breading News chat feature. Check out how much I love Breaking News chat and why…
How to Develop Your Own Trading Strategy for Penny Stocks
Why not just follow what other traders are doing or trade based on my alerts? Because it’s impossible to replicate what another trader does.
All traders have their own unique style … and strengths and weaknesses. So rather than trying to follow stock alerts, work on increasing your knowledge and developing your own trading style and strategy.
There are a lot of factors that play into your trading success or lack thereof. But I can tell you that none of the top traders I know follow another trader’s alerts.
Even if they’ve based them on my teachings, they still took the time to adapt and develop their own strategies. They’re all self-sufficient. I provided the training wheels, but they’re off now.
My Most Important Penny Stock Tips
Want some real insider tips about how to get ahead as a penny stock trader? Here goes …
- Educate yourself. Education is the key to everything, especially in the stock market. Get smart, and you’ll trade smarter.
- Be adaptable. Patterns repeat, but it’s not an exact science. The same setup that’s worked 99 times in a row might not work tomorrow, even if you don’t change a thing. Unless you want to become extinct as a trader, be nimble and adaptable.
- Maintain a strong penny stocks watchlist. To stay on top of the best opportunities, you have to create and maintain a strong watchlist. This is a list of stocks that you’re interested in. Monitor them regularly and weed out the weaklings as needed.
- Keep a trading journal. It’s one of the most important tools for any trader. In it, you’ll record every trade you make as well as your observations and results. It will help you avoid making the same mistake twice.
- Learn from your mistakes. Have you ever lost $500,000 on a single play? I have.
My mistakes are numerous, but I’m still successful. That’s because I learn from my mistakes and cut losses quickly!

What Are the Key Indicators of Good Penny Stocks?

Millionaire Media, LLCI call myself a glorified history teacher because I constantly look to the past. It’s how I try to figure out how stocks might move in the future.
It’s never exact, but history usually repeats itself pretty closely.
So you need to learn to read chart patterns … but it’s even more important that you understand them. This really only happens with time and practice, which is why it’s SO important to study.
To back up what you’re seeing on the chart, you have to consider key indicators to determine how a stock might perform in the future.
‘Indicator’ can be a pretty broad term. It refers to any sort of flag that can work for or against you when deciding to make a trade.
I don’t really look at too much fundamental information for penny stocks, since I know most companies will fail. However, there are things you can look at that can help you evaluate what kind of risk you’re taking on…
Positive Indicators to Look for Before Trading
Here are some signs that a stock could continue to go up:
- Positive earnings and new contracts
- Positive financing
- New partnerships
- Increases in trading volume
- Positive industry news
Negative Indicators to Watch With Stocks
If you see these negative signs, it could be an indication that you should stay away from a trade … or consider going short.
- Financing secured through desperation
- Rumors of negativity from within the company
- Poor industry news
- Reduced trading volume
Key Chart Patterns of Penny Stocks
Learning how to read chart patterns can make you a better trader. Moreover, you’ll begin to understand how stocks behave in specific market conditions.
If it seems hard at first, don’t worry — it takes time. You can learn to read chart patterns but still not really understand them. Think of each stock as a personality. It has its own way of moving depending on the company behind it and external factors.
Regardless of the type of chart you prefer, I recommend looking at several time frames. That can give you a better overall view of a stock’s momentum and how it’s performed in the past.
Chart Types
The four most common types of charts are:
- Bar
- Candlestick
- Line
- Area
Personally, I favor the candlestick. It’s easy to read movement in a candlestick chart based on whether the “wicks” are black, white, or red.
Bar and line charts are simple and don’t tell you as much. Honestly, I find it laughable that people try to rely on oversimplified charts to make trading decisions … but that’s just me.
As for area charts … I don’t know anyone who prefers area charts. They’re messy and difficult to understand at a glance.
Stock Chart Patterns
Chart patterns describe how a stock price moves over time — specifically in up and down movements. Although history doesn’t always predict the future, you can identify patterns that allow you to make educated guesses about a stock’s future performance.
Clean Stock Chart
This is my favorite type of chart. The stock’s price moves in one direction — up or down — with regular but brief changes in direction that quickly reverse.
You need to pay attention to clean charts. They’re highly predictive and can allow you to take advantage of quick profits on a long position or a short-sell.
However, you don’t want a chart that looks too clean. This type of chart has an upward or downward trend with almost no variation.
An extremely clean chart — especially one that remains clean for six to 12 months — often precipitates a steep increase followed by a steep decrease in price. If you’re not fast enough, you could lose significant cash.
Clean Bullish
You might have heard the terms bull and bear market. A bull market trends upward, while a bear market trends down. The same applies to chart patterns.
A clean bullish chart shows a steady upward trend. The stock price might fall on occasion, but it jumps right back up — often higher than it was before its brief decline. This is a good time to make your play because you’re likely to see the trend continue.
Clean Bearish
A clean bearish chart is the exact opposite of a clean bullish chart. There’s a definitive decline in stock price over time. It might spike every once in a while, but the downhill pattern is evident at a first glance.
It often happens after a steep increase in price. A company might announce new funding, for instance, that excites investors. The stock price shoots up, but it can’t sustain the hype, so it begins to fall back.
Clean Breakout and Clean Breakdown
Clean breakouts and clean breakdowns show that a stock has either broken through resistance or fallen below support.
The chart is clean because the pattern either repeats itself or shows significant pattern repeats prior to the breakout or breakdown.
Clean Cup and Handle
You can identify a cup and handle chart by its shape. You’ll see a smooth downward trend followed by an equally smooth upward trend.
After that, the price drops precipitously. It’s difficult to play this type of chart, but I’ve done it.
Messy Stock
I encourage you to look at messy stocks. Their charts are all over the place with no discernible pattern. The stock price might jump for no reason at all, fall a little bit, rise a little bit, fall again, and so on. But those peaks and valleys don’t repeat reliably.
While I think you can learn from these charts, don’t trade on them. There’s no way to predict what the stock will do next because you don’t have a pattern from which to learn.
Messy Breakdown
A messy breakdown starts with an upward trend. At first, the chart will look pretty clean (and appealing). Then, seemingly out of the blue, it’ll drop.
The pattern becomes extremely messy from there, with dips and increases that have no obvious reason behind them.
The Best Penny Stocks Chart Patterns
Now, we’re getting to the good stuff. Nobody else (except my Trading Challenge students) uses these patterns, because they’re mine.
I created them after watching stock charts for years and better understanding the patterns that play out.
The Supernova Penny Stock Chart Pattern

We’ll start with my favorite. The supernova looks like a stock chart exploded. It might have experienced modest peaks and valleys over several months, then it skyrockets for a short period of time.
I love supernovas. If you learn to ride the momentum, the potential gains can be meaty. I’ve seen penny stocks shoot up to 10 times or more in price. Learn more about this pattern in my Supernova webinar replay.
The Stair Stepper

This stock pattern looks just like a staircase viewed from the side. It goes up, flatlines, then goes up again. There might be a few dips along the way, but the stair-stepper pattern repeats.
The Snore

Ignore this stock pattern at all costs. It’s incredibly boring because it lacks liquidity and volatility.
The Crow

I named this pattern the crow because it’s like watching a bird pick off your investment one chunk at a time until there’s nothing left. If you start to see a crow pattern, get out immediately to avoid potential losses.
Here are 13 penny stock chart patterns I think you should know.
Using Financial Ratios for Penny Stocks Trading
Financial ratios include things like price to earnings (P/E), earnings per share (EPS), and return on equity (ROE). Yes, it’s important to know about these things — but they’re not my primary focus when trading penny stocks.
Frequently Asked Questions About Penny Stocks Trading
What Are Penny Stocks?
Penny stocks are stocks that trade for $5 per share or less.
Can You Make Money in Penny Stocks?
There are never any guarantees. Trading these stocks takes hard work. It’s possible — if you put in the time and effort to a) learn the strategies, b) use proper risk management, and c) gain experience over time.
Can You Get Rich From Penny Stock Trading?
I’ve made millions trading penny stocks and several traders have become millionaires through my Trading Challenge.* But our results aren’t typical and nothing’s guaranteed. It won’t happen overnight. These top traders and I put in years of hard work and thousands of hours studying the markets.
Is It Difficult to Sell Penny Stocks?
Selling a penny stock position can be difficult if you’re stuck in an illiquid stock. That’s what I never recommend students trade stocks with low volume.
What Are the Best Penny Stocks Apps?
That depends on your needs. I recommend focusing on information and education. Profit.ly is a solid example. You can also use StocksToTrade every day to help you find the hottest opportunities for your strategy.
How Much Money Do You Need to Trade Penny Stocks?
Depending on the broker you choose, you might be able to start an account with as little as a few bucks. Every trader is different. I personally started with a little over $12,000. Tim Grittani started with $1,500. Never trade with money you can’t afford to lose and focus on your education and the process.
What Are the Most Common Investment Types?
Stocks, commodities, derivatives, and real estate.
Is Robinhood Good for Penny Stock Trading?
I personally wouldn’t use Robinhood for trading penny stocks. It has restrictions on certain stocks, like many OTCs. But only you can decide the best broker for your needs. Do thorough research to find one that best suits your market approach.
Conclusion: Are You Ready to Start Trading Penny Stocks in 2021?
You made it this far — congratulations! That tells me you’re not one of the fools looking to get into penny stocks to get rich quick. Or at least you understand that there’s more to trading than just buying, selling, and becoming a millionaire in a month.
Penny stocks aren’t for everyone. They’re volatile, the companies can be sketchy, and they do present a significant level of risk for you as a trader.

If you’re willing to take the time to educate yourself and scale up slowly, you’ll be taking the right steps to build a strong foundation and working toward trading smarter.
Leave a comment and tell me if you’re ready to commit to your future. How willing are you to put in the work and become a smart penny stock trader?
Hey Everyone,
As many of you already know I grew up in a middle class family and didn't have many luxuries. But through trading I was able to change my circumstances --not just for me -- but for my parents as well. I now want to help you and thousands of other people from all around the world achieve similar results!
Which is why I've launched my Trading Challenge. I’m extremely determined to create a millionaire trader out of one my students and hopefully it will be you.
So when you get a chance make sure you check it out.
PS: Don’t forget to check out my 30 Day Bootcamp, it will teach you everything you need to know about trading.

All very interesting. I could be you in the way I approach trading. However there is one penny stock that I have held for over 10 years because they have been working on regulatory approval. They are close to getting approved to start construction. The only reason I have held on this long is because I know two of the principles that are involved. I worked in a competing business against them and know how they operate. One key to this business is they have teamed with an Indian tribe in California. Indian businesses do not pay Federal taxes. I still own 70000 shares. Contact me if interested.
Good luck. I’m not interested. I learned my lesson investing in Cygnus – read my tim.ly/timsbook book. Hold and hope is not a strategy.
I am so excited to get started! There is a lot of valuble information here and I I
I am thrilled my inquiring mind brought me to this gem. I started trading in May 2020 and had some ok and not so ok moments, humbling experiences to say the least. Ready to take action and make a change that will have a positive effect on my life moving forward! Thank you for all you do!
Great Knowledge. Getting comfortable gradually by studying, practicing by paper trading on E Trade
Great reminders. Thanks Tim.
Thank you for help the ones who really want to learn more about penny stock markets, really, i appreciate it,
Been studying for about a good 6 months played Forex on paper because I knew how difficult it was and did a class that someone paid for but couldn’t do ( blessed) to learn how to ??? Mostly learned terminology and looking at charts ??? My weakness for sure is I don’t worship money it’s just a tool ,and the computer in general ( but I’m not going to stop learning the computer so that charting will not be my weakness !!! I really enjoy my new job and look forward to learning more and more !!! I learned more valuable information in the lesson above then I did on the brought lessons ??? Thank you for your willingness to give back !!! I look forward to becoming a founder of some amazing charity organization that does something good for mankind !!! Traveling around wouldn’t be so bad surfing and owning a baby window VW !
Simple is best !!! Investing in our future is our hope !!!
I’m looking forward to your Penny Stock letter, and supernova pattern recognition. I’m a scientist and based on performance may want more training.
Thanks,
Dr. C
Very informative with solid evidence. Definitely helps me understand the playing field. Like someone once told me, “ Got to learn the rules of money. After you do that, you can learn to play the game.” This information definitely motivates me into learning more about how the stock market works. Also is teaching more other ways of creating income. Told myself “I’m tired of working for money. I want to make money work for me.” This is me trying to make a change. Thank you for providing such solid information. Its definitely an inspiration in my eyes.
Tim I purchased a learning deal from you. It cost $29 plus $79. I started reading this and then went on vacation and can’t find what I purchased back. Can you help me. Love everything you have taught me so far. It takes a long time just to read everything. Thank you for working with us that don’t know anything about this. May God bless you for you generous giving back.
Thanks, I passed this on to my team. You should receive an email with your login details.
Tim, thank you for putting time and energy into writing this content. This is super informative and I appreciate the hyperlinks to other links!!! Got some bedtime reading to do…!
YES!
Good stuff!
I am your grasshopper
Just finished reading your article as I am participating in your 30 day boot camp. I’m starting Day 2 today. Something I’d like some clarity on is the difference between the boot camp and the $197 commitment to enter your trading challenge. I haven’t finished the bootcamp and am not sure what the additional investment I put into my education would provide.
Finish the Bootcamp first. The investment for the Trading Challenge is more than the amount you quoted. If anyone tries to sell you at that price, it’s a scam. (Sadly it happens all the time.) Once you apply, someone from my team will contact you for an interview to see if it’s a good fit.
Thank you Tim! I am going to adjust my lifestyle to fit in learning how to trade with my day job until I can work because I want to and not that I need to! I want to work in health care, but I don’t want to depend on it.
I’ve had a job since I was little. Loading hay in the summers when I was 11/12 yo. First official job with Winn Dixie when I was 15. Fast forward to today and you’ll find me working for one of the class 1 railroads. I’m a dedicated worker but have realized a few things in life: 1) I have never really traveled. 2) I want my kids to have great lives and remember me as more than a hard worker after I pass. 3) This is the big one. I have spent my life selling my services to the highest bidder and I now realize I am a prostitute. If you think about it, we’re all prostitutes so i’m not sure why it’s outlawed in most of the country. But I’m tired of being a prostitute. I’m ready to be the pimp. Tim, I have purchased several of your training bundles and am currently going through the 30 day bootcamp. Next is the supernova training bundle, complete penny stock course, and penny stock framework. I work a full-time job so it is my plan to view all of my material by May 2021 and after that I will apply as your student. Until then, cheers to being a prostitute!
😉 GOOD! Keep studying and grow your knowledge account.
Thanks for the awesome introduction Tim. It’s what I needed to hear, the truth. I have been register for the 30 day bootcamp last year but my head wasn’t really into it. Luckily I saved it so this year I made a commitment to give it a try. First, I like to learn about trading and and stock market as they offer the freedom and flexibility in life that I am looking for. Also, I want to be able to help my family have a better life. So, I am willing to learn and give it my best. Thanks once again for sharing your thought and experience, hopefully one day I will be your next million dollar student. That I will pray and work hard for.

I am busy with full time work and family. When I am not doing I am relaxing on a bicycle where I check out (ER nurse) and check in (relaxed traveler). Realistically, what is the learning curve and then the daily time a penny trader would put in to maintain this (side job) day trading? I am looking for a more peaceful daily “job” and maybe this could fit my personality. Thirty years nursing and I need a break from it.
Everyone is different, so it’s really up to you. You get to choose how much time you want to put in. To be self-sufficient takes a LOT of time and effort.
Hello Timothy .I,ve got so borred from my 12 h shifts making 800 per month,some months i cant even pay the bills.so few months ago i started learning ways to make more money and found stock market,now i come across your life story,it realy is awsome,i would love to learn from you to become the best version of myself,thank you in advance

I am ready to learn!
GOOD!
The information you have provided is great, some is new and some reinforces the thought that I’m on the right track, I will continue to seek out your advise, digest it and make a decision using what I’ve learned and experienced. Thank you very much.——Ralph

This bootcamp will give me a strong foundation and experience I need.
You are providing so much to help me become successful, thank you.
🙂
I saw your ad on youtube this morning and I have been researching you and your plans all day. I attended the webinar you hosted today at 6:15 pm and learned quite a bit. The biggest takeaway I have gotten from you so far is motivation. You make me want to devote time to trading penny stocks because, in the end, it will be worth it. I downloaded your free copy of the book and plan on finishing it within the next few days. After that, I will likely join your program and one day be a part of your team.
Yes! Keep studying.

Years ago i met a guy who lives on the road with his wife, travelling Australia. He invited me in for dinner. He showed me briefly how he funds his travels. Trading. Years later i see Tim and his desire to teach. It hit a solid nerve. I have made a commitment to not only Tim and his team, but myself, that I do have what it takes. History does repeat itself. I succeed in everything I commit to. My apprenticeship, success. My business, success. I look forward to adding millionaire challenge, success. I am now a millionaire challenge student. Massive thanks to Tim and your team for this amazing opportunity. Look forward to chatting with you all in the future.
I’m excited 💣💥💯🙌
I’ve been in your challenge for almost a week now. Learning so much already!!
Trying to put all the study time in that’s possible and still work my 2 jobs. NEVER GIVING UP!!!! Thanks Tim!!

GREAT INFORMATION. I am really looking forward to the continuation of gaining knowledge about penny stocks and putting it to use.
I am an old time penny stock broker and so I have maybe more background than many of your student. However, your writings summarize all of the mistakes that I have made over the years trading my own accounts.I have made money and lost even more. I have trades options, equities and commodities…everything from blue chips to soybeans futures. I gave up all trading in favor of other endeavors. In finding you, I have renewed interest and motivation and am starting anew from the ground up.
I have drank the “Tim Sykes Kool Aid” and am committed to a good student and more disciplined.
Thanks
So this is day 1 for me after signing up for the Millionaire Masters Program. I am definitely dedicated and determined to learn all I can about this new lifestyle. There is definitely a lot of information here, but I find it somewhat confusing at times. There are a lot of hyperlinks to other information and I wasn’t sure if that information will be in other areas of my learning or if I should go ahead and look at them now. I’m assuming most of them will be hyperlinked to other lessons, but in any case this was a great starting point and I look forward to learning more. I can tell you have put a lot of time into these lesson, programs, books, videos ect. and I personally appreciate it. I would never have been able to even think about getting into day trading without the educational program you have created. Thank u
YES! At first it seems like a lot of information but most of my top students pick it up in one, two, or three years. Everyone is different. Remember it’s a marathon and not a sprint. Study every day. Focus on the process!

I think I’ve re-read this article about 5 times over the past few months… it’s such a great resource with invaluable information that I find myself coming back to reference. It took awhile, but I’m finally committed to getting started with trading penny stocks! Thank you for the information and your dedication to educating about the possibilities of day trading. I signed up for your 30 day bootcamp and I’m looking forward to learning more. THANKS, TIM!!
YES!
Day 1 of 30 Day Bootcamp! So ready to soak up some knowledge (and hopefully some $$$) in the next 30 days and beyond!!!
YES! Hope the https://tim.ly/30boot is going well!
Tim …Just completed the VIP Challenge interview with Chace and looking forward to learning your strategy…as a “buy and hold” investor I have to unlearn old habits as I gain new ones. My financial plan and goals are set and I’m ready for the journey.
YES!
Knowledge supports growth & development.
I’m a brand new student, only been in for couple days and this is literally like drinking from a fire hose as you say!!! It’s Saturday afternoon and my family is out playing in the water and I’m reading and studying, but about to take a break. Excited, nervous, scared, etc., but thirsty. Going to be a long haul, but looks like this could be good!!!
I have been studying and following your podcast, YouTube and lessons. I live in Perú South America. I want to join penny stock silver, but I am not sure if there is a platform and broker that allows me to trade USA penny stock from here in Perú. I have checked both Investor Underground (chocking platform) and TradeZeroPro. What platform you recommend and are they in other plataforms brokers that allows me to invest in USA stocks from here in Perú. Thank you!
try Interactive Brokers
I have been constantly studying penny stocks for a few months but Tim gives the best info and his attitude is great as well.
🙂 thank you!
I’m in this for the long haul. I have been a challenge student for 3wks now and am able to study 8-12 hrs a day right now with my current career. I’m exhausted, overwhelmed, scared to death, disciplined, and excited from the fire in my belly pushing me to make a bold decision in life that WILL change my life forever. Tim thank you for this path forward and I can’t wait to share a brew with on a yacht after I hit my $1 Million milestone. I can’t wait! I will get there.
🙏🙏🙏 keep studying and remember it’s a marathon and not a sprint!
I don’t want to but feel like quitting trading now. Watched a lot of youtube videos here and there, but all feel just like theory. On another note, really good article!
Read “The Complete Penny Stock Course” and then start small. Test and tweak. Don’t give up!

Hi Tim I recently watched your interview with Tom Bilyeu on Youtube. You mention about a free 11 hour guide. I tried accessing it but it directs me to a paid service on profit.ly.
Just wondering where I may be able to find this free guide please? Is there a new URL? Thanks!
We ended up removing it because too few people watched it. You can learn the basics of the Sykes Sliding scale in this post and from my student Jamil’s book. Trader Checklist Part Deux is the updated and detailed version.
What is the best way to get started I know nothing about trading at all. What should I do to start?
Get my FREE penny stock guide here and then read The Complete Penny Stock Course by my student Jamil.
Great Stuff Tim! My education account is growing exponentially. Thankyou for your passion in teaching.
I understand it may take years with many growing pains along the way, but my Goal is to: Become a Millionaire! How: Unrelenting focus on studying how to be successful in this niche.
I am so ready to learn to become a efficient and smart trader. Thank you so much for creating a platform so people can learn to be a self sufficient and smart trader. I’d like to think of it as “teaching one how to fish instead of just giving them the fish.”
🙂
Thank you Tim for sharing this knowledge on trading penny stocks. I’m a new student and I’m excited to learn and get started. I see good things in my future.
GOOD!
Tim you have changed many lives than you know. I have been studying from your blog and bought very few of your books and hoping to buy more. Despite trading on part-time basis, i have made 44% in profit in few months. We appreciate you
YES!
I was a stock market dabbler (aka gambler) as I have traded a few stocks before in the past. I just decided 2 weeks ago to start investing again, but for real this time. I funded my broker account and started my form of research with no coursework or training. I then found Tim’s website and training, and signed up. I was only 2 days into my training last week when I took a chance, and bought one of my stocks that looked like it would do well. I bought on Friday, and sold on Monday for a $1,200 profit on a $1,880 investment into the stock (SMHI).
The amazing part is that I made money. I spent all day Saturday and Sunday reading Tim’s material and watching his sessions. I realized what a amateur mistake I made to buy a stock without fully understanding what I was doing. I got super lucky and took Tim’s advice. I got the heck out and sold the stock this Monday morning. And while I made money, I did so out of random luck in a ticker choice. Not because I knew what I was doing. I’m now being disciplined and taking the course work before trading again. So that next time I make money I could actually explain it to someone.
The great news is if I hadn’t spent time listening to Tim, I would’ve “let it ride” on that stock, and I would’ve broke even because I sold right before it climaxed and then dropped.
I am in the Millionaire Challenge now and looking forward to learning more, and making trades that make sense AND make me money. Not by happenstance.
Thanks Tim for making these training materials, they have been super helpful for me already, and I am just a week in!
YES! Good job realizing you were in a risky trade and getting out. Keep studying!

1) I want to unsubscribe to your notifications (Trade Alerts), but not to the video lessons that are sent to me with my Pennystocking Silver subscription. Is there a way to distinguish between the two or is it all or nothing?
2) To those that are short on cash… I can tell you after reading/following Tim’s blog for many, many, many hours….. there is enough info here to get you started. While you save your money, study, paper trade, and learn the process. There are no shortcuts….. if you truly want it, you gotta go for it.
Re: your first comment – contact Profit.ly support.
really exiting
It is truly incredible the amount of information you have put together! Like a good book that I can’t put down, I can’t stop reading your blogs, watching your videos and webinars and reading your books. I have so many tabs of your links open that I have started a schedule of how many to get through in a day! I am building my knowledge account until I can afford to invest into myself with your guidance!
Hi Tim, just wanna say I love that you are a straight forward person which I love. I follow you and I’m really getting into this. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!
Hi Timothy, Im so excited to be joining your “Millionnaire Stock Challenge”. Ive already turned my spare bedroom into and office, and bought a new desktop computer in preparation for this new career path. This is what I would call “a life-changing event” for me. I cannot wait to be accepted as your next student, Ive already made myself a work badge that says “Timothy Sykes Millionnaire Challenge Student” lol.
Once again, Tim is providing a wealth of information for ‘Free’ – take notes, study as much as you can, and perhaps, paper trade his favorite SuperNova pattern on a watchlist stock. Thanks Tim – hope to join the millionaires club soon!
YES!
Cancel me out please
If you’re on my email list, there’s an unsubscribe link in every email.
I’m going to get straight to the point. I have an autistic son I have to help care for and I want to use most of my savings to lift my family and I out of poverty, so I’m making this my #1 priority, I already own the penny stock course book, I read over half of it before, but put it down because I didn’t feel that I had the means to build capital, but now that I have found a way to do so, I have picked it back up and I’m not starting where I left off, I am re-reading the book from start to finish. I’m not particularly devoted to become a millionaire, maybe eventually, but as I said already my #1 priority is lifting myself and my family out of poverty. I believe that is already a difficult endeavor but with your free resources and tools and this book I bought, I think anything is possible.
YES! Never give up!
This looks intriguing. Intimidating, but intriguing.
Study every day and it will start to make sense.
Hello Tim
Today I saw u on Steve’s show and was amazed by what I heard.
I’m a 32years old Cameroonian and wanna make that millions

Thanks for sharing
Hi Tim, actually I clicked for your millionaire challenge n I started receiving mail from your team everyday, then I received one mail saying buy a books n DVDs for $ 1600 to which I replied that I don’t have that much right now to pay as I also lost my job because of lockdown n I don’t even have a laptop but to my surprise I stopped receiving u r mail, so I just wanted to know whether it cost lots of money to take up u r millionaire challenge n learn from you if s then how much as I am desperate to learn n trade to improve my financial condition to take care of my family n don’t have to stay away from them in another country to earn money to take care of them
I’m dedicated!
Amazing! Thank you very much!!! I’m studying and learning a lot from you
Hello Tim,
I just wanted to say I really enjoy going trough your blog. This is so far giving me all the answers I`ve been looking to find the last few days when I decided to dig deep into the stock market. Not to mention my girlfriend is in banking and I was asking her how can I find small companies to invest into for a potential high % ratio return. I did not get my answer there.
Seems like by the time I get to the end of your blog I will.
Many thanks
Csaba
YES!
I have read your book an American hedge fund, i want learn, tried watching your YouTube videos, they were not in order so they were not of much help. I’m from Nigeria where using internet is pretty expensive but i still don’t mind, what bothers me is I’m not getting my desired result. Where do i start from exactly? I know i need to learn but exactly do i start from
Read “The Complete Penny Stock Course” It’s basic but it has solid information to get started.
Great Stuff Tim I’m watching all your videos
After purchasing your live demo on thursday, I’ve been reading and watching all your videos. I already feel like the money was very well worth. Thank you so much being the mentor in stock trading who I’ve always been looking for! Looking forward to achieving many things in 2020 with you! Thanks Tim!!
🙂 awwww, thanks!
This is a great read. A lot of valuable information, You have answered questions I had in mind with this article.
Thanks Tim.
Thank you!
I’m one of your supernova student looking forward to join the trade challenge. Learnt alot so far.
GOOD! Keep studying!
Tim, I want to buy your course. I live in Pakistan, would the strategies and guide you have in your course help me make the amount of money many of your top student millionaires are making if i trade in my country’s stock exchange or is it different? i am very new to this and i need your sincerest advice! Thank you!
Not sure about the stock exchange in Pakistan but I’ve heard my patterns work on other exchanges.
Hi, I am a bit confused but liked the page at the same time. I want to start the penny stock in Toronto. I need your guidance …… how can i do that
I have students from Canada. Contact my team here.
With time and effort, I can do better.
Can you hire someone to trade stocks on your behalf, or can you split money invested and profits in a stock?
I wouldn’t recommend it. Become a self-sufficient trader so you don’t have to depend on anyone else!
Hello, I don’t know if you have other courses but I want to make sure I get the right one because I am a beginner that knows nothing at all. which one do I need to get?
Start with The Complete Penny Stock Course written by my student Jamil and also apply for the Trading Challenge.
i been on board since i signed on here..i bet you got least 9000000 followowers
Not quite that many. Yet. But big things take time. 🙂
This updated pennystocking 101 is a fantastic read. It is simple and easy to understand for the type of people that Tim is looking for, you can learn a lot from this and see the 4 types of charts that Tim ideally trades. If anyone is interesting in trading penny stocks Tim have plenty of fantastic YouTube videos to watch, and if you really want to take your trading to another level Tim’s Trading Challenges would be the best thing to join. This guy is awesome and he his a proven mentor that have millionaire students.
I have been listening and watching your videos, which are awesome. I have so many goals for 2020 can’t wait to get started with pennystocks. Thanks Tim
Thanks Tim for your knowledge
All these I know and understand. YAY! That’s because you’ve pointed me in the correct direction and I am traveling that route.
Thank you.
I have been hearing about this for 2 years, I wish I could understand more, seems very difficult. I need to make a change.
What a great read. This Penny Stocks Trading For Beginners (in 2019) is a great value to keep. I bought and learning your V.I.P. Watching a lot of your videos and read your blog. I wish I knew your teachings 3mos ago. I am so looking forward to learn to trade this penny stocks after I finish watching all your videos. By the way, is there a free trial for beginners using paper trade on the StocktoTrade? I live in Australia what broker can you recommend? Thanks
Cool, I’d use Interactive Brokers
I signed up for the free information 3 hours and 20 minutes ago. That’s how long it has taken to get through this article. Of course that includes the 15 other tabs I opened as I went along…a treasure trove of information. Thanks Mr. Sykes. I’m intrigued.
I wounder how many people have read this entire document and not comment on it? I guess that is not important, I have just purchased your book off Amazon that probably is not important either.
What is important is that you have successfully managed to trade and Teach People to trade one of the Less Revered but very necessary components of the Stock market.
I am a challenge Student I am trying not to leave a stone un-turned and have found some handy Tip Bits (and a few Typos) in this Guide.
Thanks Tim!
That I guess is not imporatnt

I have been watching your youtube videos and webinars. Im very interested in penny trading and not yet ready to put the money on the line yet! I was wondering where i could go to do the pretend or fantasy trading that i heard you mention in a few videos? Looking forward to doing the trading challenge soon. Thanks.

Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
🙂
This is very useful information, had been watching your YouTube channel for a while.
I had to keep a dictionary next to me for a few words, but that is just part of learning
I am trying to fit studying about stock markets around three jobs which means I have roughly 5 hours free per week, which I have started to dedicate to learning penny stocks
I do not currently have a laptop or compute, so I am learning through a phone and news papers
I will start investing in a few months after practicing on paper accounts
I keep getting told to avoid penny stocks but they seem to be the ones that interest me the most, I love the risk.
I hope that it goes well when I finally start
Kind regards

After I read these articles twice, I finally understood Penny Stock Trading as well as the four different kinds of patterns that I always watched in your Webiner. I think I am ready to try paper trading after I read lots of videos from YouTube and from my emails. Wish me good luck guys.

Hi Tim, I entered your trading challenge but I am struggling alot when it comes to reading the charts and patterns, however I am confident that I will come right but I ain’t backing down. Still pushing, only that I am not sure what trading platform demos to use for beginners. What trading platform would you recommend me to practice on since I haven’t paid the full tuition to access the stockstotrade platform. Could you kindly recommend ne for the time being!. So far I appreciate the support from your team and looking forward to taking on the full course. I have so much trust in you Tim and thank you for the charity work you do for those in need….

I am looking for a broker that will allow me to trade penny stocks with no minimum balance. Can you help me out?
See https://tim.ly/sykesbrokers
I am a 75 year old Texas cowboy. In the last 10 years I have mostly lost money. You are correct that the normal financial advisor is a liar. I plan on learning a lot from you. I just wish your mother would have done like mine did when I used profanity. She washed my mouth out with soap. 65 years ago soap was pretty toxic. Thanks for your help.
lol nice
Tim , I am absolutely new to trading! I have read your guide, watched a lot of your videos on YouTube and i believe so much in you but I don’t really know how to start from scratch. What I see in your program is millionaire challenge. I just want to learn first before joining the challenge.Where do I start from please?
Cool, also watch my https://tim.ly/htmmguide guide
Which brokerage do you recommend for Europe, particularly Germany?
I’d use Interactive Brokers
I am studying and reading your articles, watching your videos, taking a lot of notes, and doing my best to stay up with your Challenge email.
I want to learn this and I don’t have $3000.00 to put out there for all the information, tools, and the rest. I would like to. I know I have to do a lot more educating myself and get all the help I need to understand what to do before I start play with penny stocks.
I love the way you teach, you teach the way I believe is the correct way. ( I’m a riding instructor, I mostly teach and train dressage.)
Thank you for all you do.
Cool!
This article explains it all easily and perfectly, thanks Tim for taking the time to write this great piece of art!
GOOD!

How do I start from LESOTHO in Southern Africa
Hey Tim,
This is a phenomenal guide for the beginners. I started learning about the stock market just over a week ago, and I cannot believe how hard it was for me to find such valuable information elsewhere. I only wish I found you earlier! I am hungry to learn more.
Thank you, and I hope to work with you as one of your student.
I’ve begun my journey with ‘Penny Stock Framework’ part Deux I’m broke, but realize the importance of a quality education. As I improve my standing, I will invest further.
I really want to a penny stock trader. But all the brokers I tried to register with don’t want to open account for people from my country. Please do you know any magnanimous enough to give a Nigeria a chance?
Thank you.

I’d just like the bottomline, how much to teach me and how much would I need to trade with? I’ve been in a program that charged a lot of money and claimed they’ll teach you to trade and the teaching was included in the cost. Not true!!! There was an additional charge to teach me one on one training and what I paid for was online courses. So please just give me bottom line… how much money to start with?

Timothysykes im Inspire of you I love your history how you became I have so many questions for you I hope one day that will come true to me .

Hello,Tim, how are you doing! Am so interested doing Penny stocks trade ,but I live abroad, so far from your own state. Your help please, How will I manage it .
Tom, I’m totally intrigued by your willingness and desire to teach others how to succeed financially trading penny stocks based upon your own success and experience. I need you to teach me how to do it so I can emulate what you have done and free myself from the burdens of debt, frustration, want, and uncertainty. I believe that you can. I want and need your and your team’s guidance, instruction, motivation and knowledge.
I am an old man whos got no retirement except social security, i do not want to stay on it. I made my living with my body, all my life working toiling back breaking labor type of work until at age 48 i damaged my back so bad i could not walk, and the pain was to the point of not wanting to live anymore. I have been reading up on tim’s ways, i put 1500.00 into a TD account may 2018, i didnt understand all the ways of what i read, and i lost 6 grand over the time, but my account is at 20 grand now and i am trying to learn tims pick of the meat ways, my mind set is invest long term, NOT…invest short term trades 15 mins…make a few dollars move on, i have not mastered this yet but i will, i bought another computer screen so i can run a scanner and iam going to learn how to do this, and then when i can i will pass on to whom ever what i have learned from tim and others i am sure, karma, and good will and the love of god and his son will keep tim making it….and blessings for him through folks like me that’s going to make it also. Helping others like tim has will help tim even more and passing it forward will help us all.
What is the bare minimum one can start with?
Just came across your site, I am comfortable with the terms and have done some trading. But, find it distracting when I have to jump all over for info. in the beginning. would like a straight forward step step of the whole process. Starting with selecting to implementing a trade online. Ok now lets tweak it. I am interested in the weekend trades, but need more info. not hype, facts.
Great information!! Already applied for the Trading Challenge!!
I want to join your trading challenge but the link gives an error message each time I click on it and I don’t know why. I have tried different browsers such as Google Chrome and UC Browser but the error message persists.

Cheers
Future challenge student
Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!! Waiting for you to learn
