Got hit for 20% couple of days ago on earnings. Nice little BO
this am on 5 min. Next resistance area about a point higher if it
can get thru 5min 200 here

Means just what it says. Company has until stated time to get
market value back up to approx. 1.28/share for a period of at least
10 days or raises enough equity.
Use to be kiss of death to get sent to 'pink sheets', but since
Sarbannes Oxley, lot of companies trade there and their marketplace
is electronic, so other than a little prestige, and sometimes a
small loss of liquidity no real damage done. A ton of good quality
companies trade there including tons of bank stocks and some major
stocks too. Nestle use to trade there, don't know if they still do
but there are a lot of serious companies that do.
A lot of companies don't want to spend the money and do the
requirements that listing requires. Generally, financial reporting
requirements a lot less strenuous so you get a lot of POS
companies too. So you have to be little more diligent when
you're trading stocks on there.

There are hundreds of successful methods but first you need to
decide what exactly you're looking for. What are your realistic
goals? Are you a speculator, long term investor, short term trader
or what? Once you decide that then that will narrow down your
options.
There's a wealth of info on this site. What's your experience
level? It sounds as if you may be getting overwhelmed with ideas
and opinions and are not sure which direction to jump, which is
easy to do, especially here.

Excellent fundamental research, prob best in the country that's
independent. Some of their services tend to be a little expensive.
Sign for the basic PSIA, there free daily newsletter once you
subscribe to any of their services is excellent. Sometimes rambles,
but a ton of useable tidbits. Very well connected with large
following. Not technically oriented but has been getting better in
that area.

Been looking at this all day, plus on mine if you draw a
trendline from head to the next higher low it extends up to about
1220 which is about where it measures out to.

I trade futures extensively, especially like to trade between
London open and our open for you night owls. Often less chop and
better trends.
My primary vehicles are the ES, CL- full oil contract, and ZN-10
yr note futures.
I mainly use 5 and 15min charts as well as watching 30min.
I find that my standard indicators 18ema, 50,100 and 200sma
along with an indicator that TOS has called Volume Flow Indicator,
which works as name suggests but also shows divergence as a MACD
does. (Anote for those of you who have TOS, you do not want to
trade against this indicator). I use weekly pivot points in
conjunction with Fib fan lines and Andrews pitchfork as well as
linear regression line. I also constantly monitor Dx chart, as well
as AUD/JPY since often times will lead. Oil and DX inversely
correlated majority of time.
Of all of these, CL(oil) is the most profitable consistently for
a couple of reasons. First because oil tends to trend, though it
can be very volatile short term and 2nd is you can get huge moves
quickly. You normally have to carry a .30-.40 stop which on a
single full contract is $300-$400. But it's not unusual to have
.50-.60 5min candles. On full contract, each point is $1000 so you
can see that it can be volatile. I find that oil reacts real well
to pitchfork levels as seen in charts below.
Also notice that the 100maon the 15min chart, light green moving
average line, is often very useful as a target and a turning
point.
Here is 5min oil chart. I chased the entry a tad, just because
it dropped so quick once it broke the top pitchfork line. The
horizontal red line I covered off of is an earlier top of pitchfork
line from last week
I also find that oil reacts pretty well to the 50ma(blue line)
for indicating change of direction and also for containment. You
want to have a confluence of several other indicators if you're
trading against.

These are 2 trades taken last nite:
The first is ES
http://screencast.com/t/MmQzM2I0NGMt
Here is an expanded view that you can see Pitchfork lines on going futher back. as you can see pf line I covered against this am goes back over a week
http://screencast.com/t/Yjg4NmQxM
Now here is a 15min chart with fan lines on. Notice once again that these originated a week ago
http://screencast.com/t/ZDhjMjM0OG
Also notice that the 100maon the 15min chart, light green moving average line, is often very useful as a target and a turning point.
Here is 5min oil chart. I chased the entry a tad, just because it dropped so quick once it broke the top pitchfork line. The horizontal red line I covered off of is an earlier top of pitchfork line from last week
