LOL not entirely true. My OTC returns have been massive this year, eclipsing my big board returns by a huge margin.
there are good stocks everywhere. most lose in OTC because:
1. they have no trading rules
2. they cant read charts
3. they do not understand a lick about business and finance
4. they don't bother to read filings or make phone calls.
5. they take board posts as "advice" (or tweets, for God's sake..)
6. they trade based on emotion rather than charts+DD
Anyone who thinks big boards are less risky, is wrong. they all risky if ya don't know wtf you are doing. Amazon, Apple, FB, Google, AMD "bag holders" right now.
I think everyone here is sharp, sticks with what they know and works for their specific style. Folks on this board have a plan. -which is all wise.
