Top Penny Stocks List: August 16, 2021
No harm, no foul if you trade blue-chip stocks and it works for you. I have a better edge with OTCs and listed penny stocks. Especially OTCs. That said, these are the OTCs I’m watching this week…
And here are the listed stocks I’m watching…
3 Penny Stocks to Watch This Week
The first ticker is a good example of penny stock informational inefficiency. Take note…
Top Penny Stocks List #1: GreenGro Technologies, Inc. (OTCPK: GRNH)
GreenGro Technologies provides eco-friendly tech for the industrial hemp and cannabis industries.
On July 29, the company announced an exclusive sales and marketing agreement with retailer Stop N Grow…
COO James Haas said, “This exclusive agreement with Stop N Grow will provide us with an entirely new and scalable revenue channel as demand for our turnkey product offerings are expected to continue nationwide.
“We believe revenues from this agreement will begin positively impacting our financial performance by the third quarter of this year with expectations of a healthy growth rate from thereon.”
Read the full press release here.
The news didn’t move GRNH much at first. But this was also in the press release…
“A soft grand opening for the first Stop N Grow retail store that will carry the Company’s products is expected next month in Holbrook, Arizona.”
Here’s the GRNH one-year chart…
On August 5, GRNH bounced off long-term support at roughly $0.0073. It had a solid multi-day before before dropping 25% on Friday.
I’ll watch for potential dip buys into any big morning panic. And I’ll watch for potential bounces with big volume and a news catalyst. It’s been a few years since I traded GRNH, but you can see details of my trades here.*
Top Penny Stocks List #2: Labor Smart Inc. (OTCPK: LTNC)
Labor Smart is the parent company of Takeover Industries. But the two companies appear to be decoupling…
Labor Smart was a temporary staffing business. Takeover Industries is in the energy drinks business. As of July 14, Labor Smart sold the staffing business back to its founder.
LTNC was a bigtime Twitter pump in February, March, and April. It even had its own hashtag. That resulted in legal action against notorious Twitter pumper, Stan the Trading Man. (When the legal action appeared on Twitter, Stan deleted his account.)
On August 9, Takeover Industries announced a distribution deal for its NXT LVL energy drink. Professional boxer Manny Pacquiao also actively endorses the drink.
Check out the LTNC one-year chart…
As you can see, LTNC is a former runner with a similar chart to GRNH. After the distribution deal news, it spiked roughly 150% in five days.
I’ll watch LTNC for potential dip buys. And I’ll keep watching for morning spikes with big volume and news. See details of my LTNC trades here.*
Top Penny Stocks List #3: DarkPulse Inc. (OTCPK: DPLS)
DarkPulse is a tech-security company that I’ve been watching since June.
On August 10, the company announced it acquired UK-based Optilan.
CEO Dennis O’Leary said, “This acquisition completes a monumental leap forward of DarkPulse’s expansion into global critical infrastructure markets. As a recognized leader for more than 30 years, Optilan brings a highly experienced team and operational footprint with physical assets across key international markets including, South America, Europe, Africa, Middle East, Asia and the UK.”
Read the full press release here.
Here’s the DPLS one-year chart…
DPLS spiked on Friday before having an almost ideal late morning panic. I’ll continue to watch for potential dip buys into any big panic. It’s also shown it can spike with big volume and a news catalyst. So I’ll keep watching for potential morning spikes, too. See details of my DPLS trades here.*
Trading Mentor
In profit terms, last week was one of my worst in a long time. I can’t remember the last time I had a red week. (Note: I have an open trade from Friday with unrealized gains.)
As a trader, you have to learn to take losses. And the most important thing you can do is learn from them. One thing I did last week when I was feeling a little off, was to put myself in time out. Multiple times.
That helped me to end the week strong. Yes, it was still a red week in realized gains. But adapting to the market once again proved to be the right thing to do.
Trade Review
Instead of reviewing one trade this week, here are my stats…
Trading Stats: August 9–13, 2021*
- Trades: 13
- Number of wins: 7
- Number of losses: 6
- Highest percent win: 12%
- Highest percent loss: 9.52%
- Biggest dollar win: $1,496
- Biggest dollar loss: $2,370
- Average dollar win: $527.85
- Average dollar loss: $830.50
Why is it important to look at your trading stats? Because the math behind profitability is simple. If you win more often than you lose, and your average win is bigger than your average loss, you’re profitable.
That doesn’t mean it’s easy, as you can see. One loss wiped out 55% of my profits. And I admit I traded it badly. But take away that loss and it would have been a profitable week.
Remember, whatever you do, review every trade. This video explains…

Monday Motivation
Over the years I’ve talked to a ton of successful people. And not only traders. I’ve met the likes of Larry King, Steve Harvey, and Keanu Reeves. I’ve spent time with billionaires and hung out with professional athletes.
One thing they all have in common is their desire to be better at what they do. And they all use a review process to do it. Whether it’s watching game-film or reviewing trading stats, they…

How to Create Your Own Penny Stock List
Answers to watchlist FAQs…
How Can You Create Your Own Watchlist?
To start, look for big percent gainers. For two decades, big percent gains have been my #1 criteria. After that, I look at trading volume and a catalyst or reason behind the price action. Read “Stock Watchlist Guide: Tips & Examples to Develop Your Own” for details about the entire process.
Should I Create a Watchlist Every Day?
All serious traders create a daily watchlist. If you’re serious about trading penny stocks, making a daily watchlist is essential.
