There are many different schools of thought about what exactly qualifies a stock to be classified as a penny stock. The most common definition is: A common stock that trades for less than $5, and is traded on the OTC and Pink Sheets exchanges.
For my trades in this particular project I am using that definition as my and only add one element to it. I am not concerned with which exchange the stock is traded. With the Market down like it is there are "penny" stocks on every exchange. Even on the NYSE.
So if you see me pick a stock that is traded on the more recognized exchanges, just understand that my qualifications for a penny stock is only that the stock be under $5, but remember that I may on occassion purchase stocks that trade higher if the chartlooks good or if I get a good tip from someone reliable.
