    I managed to pick up evfl before it jumped 100 percent. Bad thing is I only invested 40 dollars

    $40? I understand that if it goes bad its just a $40 loss, but the stock would have to go up almost 25% just for you to break-even with commissions. Is that working for you?

    I haven't been investing less than $400 in each position so that commission doesn't bite into it as bad. What do you guys think?

    My commission is 5.95 with USAA so with 100 percent I net about 23 dollars after fees. I figure I just keep flipping and see where it ends up over time. The hard part is finding a buyer @ .0002. With evfl though the company has potential but it is purely a spec play for me.
