Penny Stocks: How Do You Trade in Penny Stocks

Penny Stocks: How Do You Trade in Penny Stocks?

Many beginning investors hear that penny stocks are a good way to get started playing the stock market. But penny stocks are hard to find and trade infrequently. So, how do you trade in penny stocks when you’re interested in making an investment?


Penny stocks don’t trade on well-known stock exchanges such as NYSE, NASDAQ, and AMEX. Rather, penny stocks are traded “over-the-counter,” and infrequently so. Some investors shy away from trading in penny stocks because of this infrequent trading, which makes it hard to sell penny stocks. Some investors fear being unable to unload stock that’s losing money, compromising capital, and losing their entire investment. This can happen with stock that trades infrequently, and this can happen with penny stocks. Penny stocks are considered a high-risk investment for just this reason.

But if you can’t find them on the open market, then how do you trade in penny stocks? It’s true that penny stocks sell for low prices, allowing investors to buy shares at minimum prices. When all goes well, the stocks make good profit for a small initial investment. This is the promise of penny stocks, and why some investors find them very compelling. Those who want to trade in penny stocks may have to look a little harder to find the stocks they want to invest in, but for many this is worth it. Finding information on trading penny stocks isn’t all that difficult.

If you work with a broker, your broker will have lots of information on different penny stocks. If you choose to work with a broker when investing in penny stocks, you’ll get monthly updates on the progress of your stock, and always know what the status of your investment is. 

In order to trade in penny stocks, and to find out what penny stocks are available for you to invest in, check the OTCBB or Pink Sheets listings. This will help you find information not only on current penny stocks, but other over-the-counter investments that you might want to make. It’s a good idea to check your stock with both the OTCBB and Pink Sheets. 

When trading is on, you may want to be prepared to act quickly. Trading in penny stocks can be tricky, so be sure you do your research. It may be a good idea to regularly check stock sheets and watch certain penny stocks before making any investments of your own. This will give you some idea of how certain stocks behave, and let you know what sort of activity you could see with your own investment. It’s always a good idea to thoroughly look into stock, and into any type of stock, before investing your money. 

When you know how to trade in penny stocks, there’s nothing to stop you from making your own investment in the stock of your choice. If you’re interested in doing this type of trading, there’s no reason you shouldn’t give it a try. After all, in the end it’s your money, and you can do anything with it that you please.
