Why breaking the $10 rule makes sense?

Thursday, 8 January 2009 09:34 by Guest

Back in 2007 when I attended one of those technical trading seminars, the instructor/speaker said about not buying cheap stocks(priced below $10) or stocks that are below a certain cap. I also came across about this rule in one of the trading books I read.

Under normal times when there are a lot of high-priced stocks to choose from, that rule might make sense but with our current market condition that rule can be broken. A number of large and mid-cap stocks have sink way below its book or fair value. In 2008, when a lot of investors or traders lost their money from the market they will come back in 2009 bargain hunting for cheap stocks with their small amount of money left. So during this period, cheap stocks and small-cap stocks will move the market and could benefit the optimism that the investors and businesses are hoping for.

Below is a filter for bullish cheap stocks(priced more than $2 but less than $15) the last 2 days with multiple indicators and strong fundamental/guru scores. To play these stocks, you can use the hourly charts for your entry and exits for short-term trades and use the daily or weekly for longer-term trades.

Finance Quote of the Day

The fact that equities are being sold down, despite the lowest interest rates in recent history, simply means that the market doesn't see growth ahead for very many businesses. - John Malone
