the only item i see here that you may consider is a larger drop then the 10-15% you stated. i have only done a few ofthese but i look for a run-up over many days of 50%, 100% or more. then when it comes down i look for 30% down, 50% down. so when it bounces I get a good reward.

@Noble1222 I say 10/15% as a very minimum before even starting to consider buying, but normally 20/30% crashes happen before the dip and Ill wait

TDAmeritrade , 7$ flat rate on any order, so 14$ per trade, free (great) software and no minimum

I would agree, trade zero is nice with low commissions. Software is expensive though, especially if you're using OTC Markets L2 feature, I use it for $94/month. For commission for stocks under $1 its actually only .005/share. https://www.tradezero.co/pricing. Another broker I'm currently using with a bit higher commission is Alliance Trader https://www.alliancetrader.com/. Software can be free with a minimum trade term. Commission is $4.95/trade up to 400shares/trade.

@andrewfael td ameritrade don't admit foreign brokers

Hey I don't know if you have heard Tim say it but a earnings winner/loser is not determined by the $ revenue, but by the reaction. If it was a better loss than expected of course the reaction is going to be positive.

yea, thats why i put they reported earnings at a loss, but the reaction was positive

Inspiring, I've been studying for a while and watching the stocks every morning. But I've still been too scared to get in the game and take losses with my small account. I love your post though, it's giving me a little more courage to just take the plunge already. Best of luck to you in the journey Ritchie!!

@andrewfael thanks andrewfeal! It's greatly appreciated!

@MoCurley I'm glad I could be an encouragement Mo! Remember you only take a a loss if you sell it at a loss. Sometimes patience is key...

@Ritchie wow, watch out tho, patience and stubbornness are very close, don't cross the line. That cost Tim Grittani 500k$ in losses

Hey, just an opinion but I would't consider 10M to be a high float, to me anything between 15M shares is a low float, high float being 40M and up

Really good refresher, thank you

Good stuff! Thanks!

Awesome write up! Always a good refresher on learning and honing your skills as a trader. Thanks for posting!
