That's not quite how it works...
Stocks are not associated by price range- far from it. They're grouped in terms of industry and market capitalization...
So, a better question would be "Are tech stocks on the rise?" or "What blue-chip stocks are looking promising?"
Also, never, ever look for short term trends in the market and base your decisions on buying from them. Day-trading is the single worst thing for novices to attempt- you WILL lose all your money.
For a beginner, I recommend creating a fake portfolio on finance.yahoo.com and giving it a shot-- and then, until you're comfortable, invest is a blue-chip stock with a high dividend yield or a mutual fund that you feel comfortable with.
Regarding Jim's comments:
There's some truth to that, but it's VERY important to keep in mind that the price per share is irrelevant- It's the EPS that matters. For example, Google at 398 was a great buy for me, whereas I took a loss on the Oracle I bought at 18.
About your comment:
If you're looking to double your money in 2 monthes, then you're going to need to buy some wildly speculative stocks. Are you allowed to buy options? Options trading is an additional way to get very quick leverage. Since the money is not "real" you can afford to be a bit more reckless.
Look for options that cost less than 1 dollar and start putting on a slow rolling position... Buy 20 options now, 20 options when the price decreases a bit more... and then, as the price rises, slowly roll it off the table.
Near month options are not the best way to go, as they lose a lot of value thanks to time- your best bet is to deal only in options that expire outside the 2 month period.

if we could answer that question, none of us would be working.... usually the lower the price of the stock, the higher the risk.... stocks that you should buy are ones that pay dividends, or look at stocks that have a good EPS and P/E rating....if you double your money as fast as you are looking to do, you got lucky.....

One of the stocks you diversify in should be PBLS
Say 10% 10,000.00
I told all the knuckleheads here (Answers ) to research it at
.012 well it closed at .022 today an 88% gain.
I told them I have researched this company PBLS for 2 years and it is an AMEX stock in penny clothing.
All people that are to lazy to do your research.
Watch as my ultra undervalue style of investing raines supreme
over the next few weeks and months.
When you realize what this company has it will be to late..
Naysayers please watch over the next few weeks!
Mark this post like I told you @ .012, .0175, .0205 and now .022
