Upcoming

This weekend's edition is going to
feature a company we have been following for a long time. The stock has
had occasional surges, but has never really obtained the kind of valuation
reflective of the company's history of profitability.
We spent a lot of time with management
this week, and we believe this stock is on the verge of a significant breakout.
Please stayed tuned for the weekend edition and read about a company that
will have multiple substantive fundamental developments over the next 90
days.
We have also committed to two new
full profiles. We believe the new exhorbitant natural gas prices represent
investment opportunities in small names that would have been of no interest
at old prices. We have uncovered a situation with great upside potential
and almost no downside risk in the energy and natural gas group.
Our second new profile will be a
software company we believe is on the verge of a major commercial breakout.
The software is revolutionary and will lead a whole new generation of programming.
Stay tuned for these events.

How To Maximize
Your Potential to Make Money Using the OTC Journal |
|
We have been receiving a lot of Email
questions regarding trading strategies to maximize your potential to make
money when the OTC Journal publishes news releases and features
on companies.
We have grown to nearly 500,000 subscribers,
and consequently stocks tend to trade prolifically when we publish positive
information. Our section on Rules
For Successful Microcap Investing contains some trading strategies
for these volatile situations. It can be found on the left hand menu bar
of our home page.
Market Makers are the scum of the
earth when it comes to jumping on opportunities to take advantage of the
investing public. We publish information on smaller, more thinly traded
stocks, and these stocks are easily manipulated by market makers to their
advantage.
As stated previously, never buy a
stock when the market makers open it much higher than its previous day's
close. You will be lining some market makers' pocket with your hard earned
money. 9 out of 10 times these stocks will come back down to a reasonable
level near the previous day's close. From there they may trade higher or
lower, depending on momentum.
Our last Trading Alert on NetSol
International was a classic example. The stock closed at $7.875 last
Friday, and the market makers had it up to nearly $9 within minutes of
the open on Monday morning. If you bought it at that level you made a mistake.
Had you placed a limit order at $8
you would have gotten filled an hour or two later. However, this one did
not go up from there, and it was a poor call on our part. We have had so
much success with this stock we were over anxious for a good entry point.
When the stock traded down to $7.25
the next day everyone should have gotten out at a moderate loss. We were
wrong this time, and we will undoubtedly be wrong in the future. We specialize
in the risk end of the market, and that won't change. Perhaps the stock
is a buy today at $7. Time will tell.
The ideal trading pattern occurs
when a stock we feature opens a little above the previous day's close,
and then gathers momentum. This pattern will give you the best chance for
a short term gain.
Another way to maximize your potential
to make money from the OTC Journal is to accumulate shares of our
profiled companies when the stocks are quiet and no one seems interested.
If you click on the Profile
Archives button on our home page, you will see a list of the companies
we will be covering for months to come. You can read every edition we have
ever published on them. Pick one you like, and accumulate shares in between
news releases when the stocks are quiet. You will then be positioned to
take advantage of surges on good news.
One more comment- when we publish
target prices in our Trading Alerts these are just guidelines. We
never know for sure what will happen. A wise man once said "You can
never go broke taking a profit". Don't be afraid to take a small
profit when the market gives it to you in the short term.

Market
Comment |

Today's 1/2 point rate cut by the
FED along with the strong language about preemptive strikes against an
impending softening economy bode extremely well for the market.
Earnings will continue to be poor
for another quarter, but the market looks out six months. Ideally, a 200
point drop in the NASDAQ would set us up for a sustainable rally. However,
we expect the market to trade sideways or down for the next several days,
and then head higher.
Both fiscal (The FED) and legislative
(the proposed tax cut) policies are setting us up for an ideal environment
for stocks. 2001 is setting up to be a far better year than 2000, and may
see the markets much higher.
Please read this weekend's edition-
it will feature a company we love for the remainder of this year.
