Penny Stocks Weekly Free Unbiased Newsletter

Charting can be a remarkable tool to discover trading opportunities in Penny Stocks, but it is important

to use them properly and over a correct time frame. Typically we use weekly candles but some penny

stocks will work just fine with daily charts. Only look for patterns or traditional formations when the market

is in extreme over bought or over sold levels. The bullish or bearish engulfing patterns are very reliable

when RSI or MACD are very high or low on weekly charts. These are large candles that overshadow the

last few and come right at the top or bottom. We particularly like the fact that these charts use logic and

information that we already know, but put it in an abstract for easy use. Just be careful not to let these

charts create emotions. Black and white are a lot better colors to use than red and green.

When looking at and trying to understand candlestick charts, use time frame

divergence.

This involves

looking at increasingly smaller

time

frames to confirm

candlestick patterns.

This will help you determine

which patterns are more reliable

and which ones are completely

false.

Looking at as many time frames as

possible

will also help you learn what happens

when a candlestick pattern is formed and

what it's

key

elements are.

When looking at charts of OTC BB stocks be sure to use an appropriate time frame. Stocks that were very
lightly traded for a long time and suddenly came to life only need to be view from the time volume came in.
Always look at at least a few months worth of data and look at your own needs and expectations. Although
it is important to know the entire history of a stock, if you have short time horizons, look at shorter charts for
important trade decisions. Trying to pick a low on a monthly chart can take a long time to pan out. Daily
charts are the best way to go.

Moving Average indicators can be a great tool for Penny Stock decision making, but not in the traditional
way. Common technical analysis tells you to use two moving average indicators like a 50 day and 200 day
and to react whenever they cross each other. In this strategy you would buy when the shorter moving
average crosses above the longer one and to sell when the opposite occurs. Historical testing of this
shows that there is no better way to lose your money as this strategy often brings you to the table way to
late. A sell indicator will usually come once the stock has already plummeted and the best you can do
normally is break even. We use two or three moving averages but watch for them to spread hand with the
MACD (moving average convergence divergence). A perfect technical chart simply shows some moving
averages, the MACD and volume. We buy when shorter moving averages extend below the longer ones by
significant levels and the MACD is at its low end of a longer term range, usually six months or so. This
combined with the proper interpretation of volume will lead you to the right places to begin to perform
fundamental analysis.

All in all, do not trust technical analysis without looking at the facts. Try looking at

past

charts and see

what the news did to the stock

price.

This will help you clear

up your crystal

ball a little bit. Look for price

drops due to unrelated bad news for

great buying opportunities.
