Playing & Trading Strategy

simple math....

Posted by: RazorHawk on Jul 25, 10:19 in response to mike255's post Razor u can still make decent money. You can take 5k...

you place an order for a 100,000 of a $0.01 stock  and get charged a $2,000 commission

the order causes chuckage and you actually buy at $0.03 a share.


you wait until the stock moves to $0.12 a share and sell to make a profit

the sell order causes chuckage and you actually sell at $0.09 a share with another $2,000 commission


$0.09 minus $0.03 = $0.06 profit per share

$0.06 profit times 100,000 shares  = $6,000 profit

$6,000 profit - $2,000 commission (to buy) - $2,000 commission (to sell) = $2,000 overall profit


======================================================================


I buy 100,000 shares of a $5 stock ($5,000 commission) and it moves up $1 = $100,000 profit


$100,000 minus $5,000 commission (to buy) and $6,000 commission (to sell) = $89,000 overall profit

+1 on the explanation on why $0.01 does not actually cost $0.01 anymore....the noob thing....they're always right, just ask them alfpaulytd2012 Jul 25, 12:07

Chuckage does not always occur with penny stocks, many stay @ .01 (but I do it on the hopes 1 or 2 will break out and go to JDolphin Jul 26, 00:22

Of course your math is correct..my answer was geared more to a stock that may go up to $2, $3, etc.. Flash Jul 26, 07:32

Penny add up fast. If you have a lot of plenty cash to spend anyway mike255 Jul 25, 16:36

For us small ports, I think a judicial choice of penny stocks could work. The big ports, scoff, because it pointless for them. elchan Jul 28, 20:31
