How To Invest In Penny Stocks
August 29, 2009
Running a penny stock website I’m often asked… “How To Invest In Penny Stocks” and the answer is pretty simple.
Step One… Make the decision you are going to make investments systematically. There are thousands of investors who may have taken one ill informed stab at penny stocks, got stung, and then never looked again on what might have been a excellent chance for doubling their nestegg.
Step Two… Be sure that the capital you plan to invest with is capital that you can afford to lose. While we have a great track record at http://whisperfromwallstreet.com we’re not perfect and there isn’t anyone who can bat a thousand. The most important part of investing is to do so regularly.
Step Three… Set up an account with an online brokerage house, many of these can be opened for as little as $500, and added to as necessary. If you don’t have $500 (see step four below)…
Step Four… Save a little bit every month that you plan to use for investing. While I can’t give you an exact percentage, 10% of your monthly salary would be a good starting point.
Step Five… Join a penny stock newsletter that you trust. How can you trust one, check their advice over time and weed out the ones that do not deliver.
Step Six… Prior to making your first actual investment, paper trade (practice trading) so you’ll know how you would have done from one day to the next.
Good penny stocks afford you the opportunity for quick and substantial return on investment. Even if you’ve been stung in the past, take the time to explore them in detail.
