A trader friend of mine pointed out INAR to me the other day.  After he first mentioned it I looked at it only briefly and concluded that it needed to do some more work after the initial early August breakout type move on huge volume.   But now I am looking at it a bit closer and this penny stock might have some potential.

It appears clear from looking at the penny stock chart of INAR that the big spike rally in mid May was preliminary demand.  Then we saw a sell off and a retest of the .001 level which INAR was completed successfully.  Price was able to hold the double bottom without breaking down below.

Now we are seeing another attempt at a rally on huge volume.  After the volume and price spike after a week ago INAR has settled down into a small sideways  trading range.

You can click on the chart of PGCR above to see it full size (note please ignore the x axis monthly dates because they are incorrect, the price is correct but the dates are wrong. It is the only way I could get the data in my charting program).  I still like the way PGCR is trading so far.  It continues to trade sideways now near the longer term triple bottom support area. 

I continue to believe that PGCR could be close to a spike rally north.  If I am wrong then I think the best alternative is to see PGCR trade sideways for a longer period of time. The 13 day moving average has still not crossed above the 50 day moving average but it is awfully close.  Volume has really dried up as of late, but is that surprising in August? 

If PGCR is able to keep trading sideways without breaking below .002 then to me it would be a bullish longer term development because the stock could be building a big base and longer term cause for the eventual move up.  But it is imperative that PGCR is able to hold .002 .  Perhaps the best shot PGCR has for a repeat type super spike rally is the October to January 2009 time frame.  Rest assured I will post here when I see important new developments.

The penny stock VIPR Industries may be setting up for a move this week.  It is somewhat of a simple setup but could have some juice in it.  Caution is still advised because there is not much sideways cause for VIPR. 

The positives here are the bombshell volume that occurred about 3 days ago on the first spike upwards.  That was on over 100 million shares.  Then the next day retracement downwards was on dramatically lighter volume.  The drop off in volume was substantial and I do not usually see such a dramatic drop off in volume like that after such a big move, especially on penny stocks.  The actual percentage drop off in volume on VIPR was by about 68% which is huge. 

We may have very quality volume here in VIPR.

Then on last Friday price on VIPR starting catching wind again and volume increased substantially to about 67 million shares.  So roughly 60% of the free tradable float could be bought up at this point.

The penny stock Placer Gold Corp (PGCR) which trades on the pinksheets forms a chart that is worth studying in my opinion.  The chart you see above (click on it to make it full size) is a longer term 2 year daily price chart of PGCR. 

It is worth studying because in my opinion there are some well defined parameters that make for clear cost benefit analysis.  Many penny stock charts that I look at are not so clear.  Typically there is a lot of congestion, noise, lack of price data, and just general confusion in the price chart. Or the price movement has wide swings all over the place and it is difficult to define clear trends or parameters that are worth acting on.

Reason 1

But with PGCR I want to tell you about a few important observations I have made.  For starters, I see long term support at the .002 level.  The .002 level is a significant level and a level that PGCR must hold in order for me to remain open to bullish possibilities.
