For these little stocks such as FRP, you have to look at the volume. You can put as little as $1000 or as much as $50K. It depends on the volume. These little stocks move fast and it's basically easy for you to walk out with a 20% gain. Now it all depends on how much you want to get out of it. I tend to buy and set stops, and take profits on the way up. I buy the stock only that I believe in the chart. I don't really buy the stocks that are in the hype. Does this help?
