I am new to hot copper but I have trouble knowing when to sell
I have no trouble picking the stocks to buy - I do a lot of homework.
But my problem is WHEN to sell
TV@ was a classic example
2-
I got them at 0.026 150,000 shares
Sold them for 0.034- nice little earn for me before they announced a trading halt
I brought them again 150,000 shares at 0.043 they dropped back to I think 0.031 then another halted
So I put my order into sell them at 0.054, but realised they opened at 0.059, so I never submitted the 0.054 order.
They went to 0.072- So I put them into sell at 0.072- MISSED
Then I put them in at 0.068 MISSED
I ended up selling them at 0.06
Don't get me wrong I an not complaining, I am not after to win the GRANDSTAND in one go, Brick by Brick !
Also when I wish to buy a penny stock , say like today I brought CMY at 0.007,
There were heaps of sellers at 0.0065, but When I try to sell something at 0.0065, it wont let me, keep saying my orders must be in 000.1 incraments- This costing me a fortune not being able to do this, sell them at 0.0065
The shares I have brought in the past are
IOT-TRADED THEM BOUGHT 8.7- SOLD 11.6
CAZ - same again got them cheap sold them three time in one day making $800 trade
TKL- got them at 0.021 sold them btween $4.00 and $0.053
BPL- brought and sold them at ;east 6 times for profits.
Also can anyone explain to me this what I have cut and pasted below - which shows you buyers paying 0.0005 of a cent when I don't seem to be able too on my c0mputer

Watch the stock called DEG
cheers and thanks for any adivice

on comsec you cannot sell at 0.0065 (4th decimal point). If you want to do that you need to call your broker/comsec directly. presume the same for etrade. won't give investment advice out - the ony thing I will say is keep to your investment strategy whatever that is.
