Dealing with Stock Bashers

There are two recurring extreme groups of people here in pennyland, stock bashers and stock pumpers.

Pumpers are the ones trying to get you to buy the highs. Bashers are the ones trying to get you to sell the lows. These people are very easy to spot because of the polarity of their posts. Since I mainly focus on buying penny stocks at lows or in pullbacks to major support levels, most of the time I encounter stock bashers.


When I combine my system of technical analysis and the slightest bit of due diligence to get bullish on a stock, believe it or not the presense of bashers is my favorite contrarian indicator. In fact, if I am playing a bottoming play setup and there are no bashers present, I get a bit concerned.

Below are some very good resources that lay out some more specifics on bashers and how they operate. If you have done your homework and managed your position properly, then you know that they are just background noise to be ignored.
