It’s UNBELIEVEABLE what’s happening out there in penny stock land. There’s so much strength, breakouts, short squeezes, tanks….everything! This is what trading penny stocks is all about! What a week to have final exams on, right? Well the good news is that I don’t have an exam today! I’ll be able to trade today for the first time this week and I’m really looking forward to it. The penny stock watch lists have been dead on the spot many of these penny stock plays and these exams have left me unable to take advantage of them. My extra monitor is going to be filled with penny stock charts tommorrow morning because there are just soooooooo many plays out their right now. Enough of me talking, lets see the penny stock plays out their that will make you some moolah…..

BZ penny stock is breaking out again from its gap up off the earnings. They narrowed loses so this could continue to run DDRX, COT style. 5 min chart is pretty choppy but this could potentially be a good buy today.

CBOU this coffee related penny stock is on a caffeine rush! 7 straight days up going from 2.00 to over almost 6.00! Watch for a negative move to come sometime soon – maybe today? No news is driving this penny stock, just the sector is driving up and this is goin’ with it. Don’t expect this to be a great short, but it defintely could be a profitable short..when the opportunity arises. I’d like to see some sideways action first, though.

CLUB showed some weakness today in the morning going from green-to-red then the greedy shorts got totally squeezed and this penny stock accelerated higher closing up 5% on the day. I really think this thing could squeeze some more shorts before this run is over and done with, because of that I’m avoiding this penny stock..for right now.

COT earnings play here showing some sideways price action. It’ll be pretty easy to trade this penny stock – if it breaks the sideways action on the downside potentially short this sucker. If it breaks sideways action on the upside potentially buy it. Personally, I’ll be looking for a break of 4.00 on BIG volume to maybe go short.

CRTX this penny stock has had a real nice run up mostly on speculation on earnings. Those earnings come out this morning before the market open so defintely keep this penny stock on the news and possibly short sell on a bad report!

CTIC penny stock exploded higher today on a 140% gain due to a promoter pumping this BUT also due to earnings speculation which the earnings are due out this morning also so defintely keep this penny stock on watch! Anything bad and this thing could tank, possibly netting you some good short selling profits!

CVTI low volume runner here up 50%+ today on no news. I kinda want to short this penny stock, but I’m not holding my breath because it did just just out of a 6 month base with this move. Very thinly traded, so if you do decide to trade this buying/or shorting trade it with caution. I’ll probably hold off considering this.

DAN made a 100%+ run in 2 days, but is stalling at the 2.00 mark. No news on this penny stock BUT it is car/transportation related which could have something to do with the pour-in of volume and the upwards move. Definitely a penny stock to watch especially on a break of 2.00 as it could trend higher after that. Otherwise look for a green-to-red short.

EQUR mentioned this penny stock a couple of days ago HERE @ .03…now it’s .044. Shoulda, woulda, coulda but I had exams. Thats how it goes sometimes BUT that doesn’t mean I still won’t buy this stock. Very good support in the .04 range and volume increased yesterday leading me to believe it could bust higher. Definitely a potential buy for me come market open.

FCH volume flooded in yesterday on this penny stock on speculation of earnings which are released AFTER the market closes today. Looking at the chart there was a TON of buying right before the closing bell. There’s stiff resistance @ 3.50 but if it breaks that, which I think it might based on the end of day buying pressure, it’s a great day-trade buy. I say day-trade because you DONT want to hold this overnight because of the earnings factor.

INSM we got a hammer candle stick on the daily chart for this penny stock as well as an increase in volume. If you read the watchlist a few day ago I mentioned this was on the verge of breaking out. With this latest volume picking up and the buyers comming back in don’t be surprised if it finally does breakout. If it breaks 1.50 it’s a no-brainer buy in my opinion…but ONLY if it breaks that important resistance mark.

LEE wow big up-swing from .40 to 1.20 on four consecutive up-days. Earnings are scheduled for release this morning and based on the report it’ll give you an idea of where to go with this penny stock. Let the market show you how to trade it…if there are more sellers than buyers then possibly short this sucker!

MDVX remember this penny stock? This is the one I made $661 on buying the perfect breakout. Wouldn’t you know it, it is setting up to potentially break out again and if it does I’ll be all over it with a buy, buy, buy (kinda like Jim Cramer). Its just gotta break 4.00 first!

NCOC is a coal penny stock that HAD momentum from the goldman sachs upgrade of the sector…but that seems to be winding down. Sideways price action the past 2 days leading me to believe this could become a good short candidate. Watch for a green-to-red move or a break of 2.30 to potentially intiate a short biased trade.

RIV surging only because it’s in the casino sector BUT with the Wynn Resort reporting losses yesterday it could kill the casino rally making this a good short trade. I’ll only look to short though if it has a green-to-red move.

SPPI right now this penny stock’s chart is showing a breakout..but barely. I’d be all over this, but the volume just doesn’t confirm a breakout and I like to see the RSI over 70 on these types of plays. We’ll let today’s price action let us know if this is a legit breakout or not. I might be a buyer.

UPFC price increase of over 100% for this financial penny stock over the last few days. No news, just manipulation..so you know what that means, right? Potential short! Watch for a green-to-red move to potentially short. It’s a thinly traded penny stock so be careful.

ZAGG is a-trying to break out…yet again. Keep this penny stock on watch today as it very well could make you some money buying it but watch for some sort of confirmation, likely early morning volume!
