If you’re like me, you’ve seen all the headlines about the overwhelming amount of money people on Wall Street make. Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to be a part of it. I wanted to make the kind of money they were making. That only left me with one little question…how?

Oh yeah, that’s the hard part. I grew up in a poor family but was lucky enough to start a business on my own, with no money, and have it take off. Eventually I built up some savings and wanted to start trading. Unfortunately, it’s not easy. After about five years of losing my life savings through trading on my own, listening to what I read in books, following charts and things like that, I was finally ready to give up. Luckily, I didn’t.

Completely randomly, during the course of my research I stumbled onto some information about penny stocks. I had heard my business partner talk about them before but I didn’t really understand them and I was caught up in trading the big stocks so I had no interest. That was before he showed me how while I was out there losing 10-20% a month, he was actually profiting 100-300% in a month.

I couldn’t believe it! I had to find out how he did it. He told me he trades based on something called penny stock alerts. A penny stock alert is basically a penny stock pick, but supposedly timed just right so you can make immediate profits or at least make profits within a month or so of when the alert comes out.

Sounded a little too good to be true, but man, I went online so I could start receiving these alerts and oh boy…I sure have done well from it. I honestly thought there was no way it could work, or at least there was no way I could make as much money as he was saying he made. I thought he was full of it. Lo and behold, these are some HOT penny stocks! The penny stock picks I’ve been getting have made me the same 100-300% he has been making for the past six months.

Penny stocks aren’t for everybody, they kind of move around wildly. However, if you follow the penny stock alerts and make sure to cash in some gains when you’re up, it’s not too risky and the potential gains are huge. One time I made 2000% in one trade! I only bet a thousand bucks and I ended up with around $20,000.
