I don't post much on stocks that I am playing unless it to let people know its time to leave. Like on EYII where I told everyone about the .20 wall for pennies and that it would stop right before it hit it so they better start getting out. Every now and again I do talk a little bit but rarely. I not high on pumping a stock. I might mention what the chart looks like or how the level II looks but try not to get much into the hype.
So I may have played some you where in and you not even known it, lol.

lol, I'm sure. But, well, yeah, that's what I meant--where you got a thread of folks sweating a runner or waiting on the breakout...
I don't post everything I play, either cuz I take some strange positions and don't want to be "blamed" if it goes south. One that was on-board recently was that deal Master Keith found--did you see that? Spend 40 cents to maybe get back $110-190? Funny one.
But, days when I play runners, I'll usually say sumpin...

Hey Tex....when can you give somebody stars again? I gave you some way back when and would be happy to do so again! I don't pay any attention to my stars, I don't give picks, plays, charts, any of that so why the heck I would have pissed somebody off to take away my stars is beyond me, but I'd be happy to 5 star ya again if I can lol

Fellas, I've never checked that out. lol- i was surprised to *even* get stars in the first place.
The only benefit I see? when newbies come on board.
Otherwise, those of us who have been active readers--not necessarily posters--we know who's genuine and who's not.
Anybody can be wrong on a given pick, it's the "body of work" that's important. momo et al, gainster, etc, think all that peeps want is tomorrow's pick.
Well, yeah, some are satisfied with that. But, really? The good ones want to know how all this "works."
Can't get that from a group-grope...

I've only been on here for about a month or so now and have learned more than I could have possibly imagined in that time... unfortunately... mostly through getting burned... but I'm starting to learn who can be trusted here and who can't.
One mistake that I made was just jumping right in! I.E. GRYF! So, I'd suggest doing the following... read the boards daily... pick some stocks from here that sound good then pretend to buy them... record your pretend purchses and sales for a month or so and see how they would have done if they had been real.
Pens, this may sound stupid... but a pretty good book for learning the basics of reading stock charts is Technical Analysis for Dummies.
Sorry for bumping this thread but maybe someone else new can find it useful as well.
I just had to comment, I was surprised to see someone mention "pretending to buy" while you learn, as that's exactly what I'm doing.
I normally just run and jump right in something but I decided hold back and play along for a little bit, while I'm setting up my trade account and so on. It's just funny to see someone actually suggesting to do that so I figured I's say "hey good tip".

maybe i should do a search through other posts instead of bumping this, but i figure the easiest way is to just ask.
about testing through 'pretending to buy', are there certain programs that work well to help learn from.. i've been hearing about papertrading or something like that.. it sounds like a good idea, so i'm wondering how to get into that to help educate myself a little more.
this whole board is very very intriguing to me, and i'm doing my best to not jump right in, and to learn everything i can first from the big names around here, so any guidance would be much appreciated.

I am too a new member here and am in deep in about 10 penny stocks: AMEP, DMTN, NTVI (just lost my shirt on the R/S here), ERUG, GWGO, GZFX, ITGJ, SSTY, VRDM, VMHVF, CLBE, PBLS, USXP, VTLV, WTVN (loser) and PMED. Now if just one of this can perform...well we all think the same way.
It has been fun and education finally getting my hand into the trading end of this, I figured if my broker can lose it for me why not myself and learn a thing or two along the way.
I guess I am finally growing up. After 10 years as a business owner I finally wrote my business plan, now it just makes more sense and I have some direction.

There's a reason my name is VeryGreen...No scammer here. I'm new to this whole thing...I'm 29 and am in Accounting II in college...graduating with my business degree in 5 months...Hooray!! Anyways...balance sheets, income statements, charts...are all beginning to intrigue me. I have been browsing this site for a few weeks now and think I want to get my feet wet in stocks. I know who some of the good guys in here are, and I have already seen some of the scammers you speak of in this thread. I just signed up for an account so I could start asking questions.
I guess my first one is what is the best online broker for penny stocks?
And...am I limited to the amount of trades I want to do in a day?
I'm wanting to make the most $$ I can...I'm also trying to help my Dad out with some of his $$...I don't want to be limited in what I can and can't do though as far as trades...any suggestions??
I think one of the things I have learned from reading a lot of different threads is basically set your goals for companies you buy into. However, If I buy at open and 2 hours in my goal is met and I decide to sell can I then buy more shares of a different company and so on as the day progresses??
