Penny Stock Trading System

I have used many different trading systems and this one seems to have worked very good for me. I tried to describe it the best I can so everyone would understand. It is very simple once you get used to following it and know all the terms.

Setup for Longs

14-day ADX must be greater than 30. For those unfamiliar with ADX, go to the discussion of ADX.

The 14-day +DI must be greater than the 14-day –DI.

Wait for a 3 day correction. This means that the stock must make three consecutive lower lows or any combination of two lower lows and an inside day.

Buy on day 4 only if the stock moves .10 above the day-3 high.

If filled, place a protective stop .10 below the day-3 low.

If the position moves in your favor, use a trail stop.

Use of proper candlestick formations in the third bar will increase probability of a profit. See The Three Day Hammer.

Setup for Shorts

14-day ADX must be greater than 30. For those unfamiliar with ADX, go to the discussion of ADX.

The 14-day -DI must be greater than the 14-day +DI.

Wait for a 3 day correction. This means that the stock must make three consecutive higher highs or any combination of two higher highs and an inside day.

Short on day 4 only if the stock moves .10 below the day-3 low.

If filled, place a protective stop .10 above the day-3 high.

If the position moves in your favor, use a trail stop.

Use of proper candlestick formations in the third bar will increase probability of a profit. See The Three Day Hammer.

General Thoughts

Near the close of day one, if the stock appears to be closing down for the longs or up for the shorts, I generally close out the position. I find the best stock picks from these trades are profitability from the start.

If you are not stopped out by close of day 5, close the position.
