Ehm..
You should try with Penny Stocks Trading (you can find more info here: http://pennystocks.toptips.org )

Penny stocks, also known as cent stocks in some countries, are common shares of small public companies that trade at low prices per share.
I've been subscribing to this PennyStock web site for about a year now and have loved the objective advice they give. He really does look for quality stocks and I've made some pretty nice profits on a lot of his suggestions. Being still fairly new to investing I have been dabbling a lot in penny stocks to try and grow my account. I may not have a big account, but it's a lot bigger than it was a year ago. On just one of Nathan's picks this year I managed to make my investment back ten-fold! Be careful! Penny stocks are notoriously risky but if you follow the right method the risk is almost 0. I suggest to invest only little money first and then reinvest the profits. This is the site I'm using: http://pennystocks.toptips.org
Cheers.

There are ethical brokers out there! I've seen the worst come from your Merril Lynch's and Smith Barneys of the world. If you are looking for a good broker who does have your best interest at heart, who does not work on commission you should choose Schwab (Charles Schwab). They have been in business for MANY years and started their business by wanting to help the smaller investor. They do have stock picking tools but there aren't analysts behind the picks. It's a purely quantitative approach.. A computer generated model that looks at many different criteria that rates stocks A through F.. A's and B's are your buys and your D's and F's are your sells. A great way to develop a buy and sell strategy if you tend to get emotional about anything you hold. Aside from the stock picks though, you need to make sure your asset allocation is in line with your risk tolerance. There are several ways to determine your risk level.. Generally your more aggressive investor will have 95% allocated to stocks but split up among your large company, small company and International. As you move along the risk scale you'll see that 95% decrease while a small percentage of fixed income is introduced to the portfolio. Asset allocation should be your #1 concern.. Next should be finding companys/mutual funds that fit into your plan. I love Schwab and I love my broker.. My interests are always addressed and when I need help and advice I can get it.. When I just need guidance, that's there too. They don't work on commission and are salaried. My broker gets a quarterly bonus but that is based on retention, client satisfaction and asset consolidation. They are truely wonderful and are very interested in helping even the small investor learn and get started.

Answer 4

NVDA is a good pick it down 6% of its recently set 52 week high and moving up on heathly volume. Nov and Dec are usually record months for NVDA. They report earnings on the 30th of October which aligns directly with the fed meeting that alone is an explosive combination. Combine that with a ATI/AMD is their only real competition and their products are far inferiour. Also they are not as overbought in the recent tech run-up in fact they are down roughly 6% MTD. This stock is also a favorite stock of CNBC to pump and they have not been on it lately so its about due. The time to get in is now.


Anyway thats my short term explosive pick. You should do your own DD.

This penny stock service has years of proven experience. Ultimately it is the best service for beginners to use https://tr.im/pennystocks
You will have to wait between 3 and 10 days to get into the system in most cases. When I signed up it took 8 days. I wished it was faster, but if you can wait a week or two to start earn life changing money than you will have what it takes to make it in this business.

Answer 6

Penn National Gaming has shown steady growth this year...in a climate where companies with ties to horse racing has dipped.

A flyer may be taken on MTR Gaming...the stock dropped in part to the opening of a new track in Pennsylvania and a loss of revenues at its flagship West Virginia track....it may be undervalued right now.

Answer 7

My experience is that once you've closed a good trade, it is a good idea to take a break. Frequently, after a big gain one goes looking for more only to end up losing a decent portion of what they just won. Additionally, I think the markets have surged much too aggressively over the past month and need a retracement.

Answer 8

STV. I bought at 35 and sold at 52.

40-45 is a good buy.

If you have extra $ to put away for a year without even looking at it, it will got up to 100 easily.

I bought 100 shares of Google back in 2005 and even today, I haven't sell them yet.

Answer 9

Microsoft has taken a nice almost three year vacation. I have been watching and tracking MSFT for almost three years and its chart is almost flat. I would buy MSFT now at this price it's still cheap. With the release of the new zune and rumors of the vista operating system try this. My firm has a price target of 38 , nice growth/value play.
