I often see penny stocks go up in a day by 100% or more. I once got in at the right price at premarket with MSGM and turned $76 into $625 in one day with 10 shares.

That's the best trade I have made so far since beginning trading a year ago.
My question is, I often see penny stocks go up 100% or more. What if I invested $5,000 or a large sum of money into one of those stocks and it went up 100% or more in a day? Would I then have made $5,000 and doubled my money in 24 hours?
For every trade you make someone has to get the opposite side. So no, the volume available on those penny stocks isn't likely to fill your 5k. You need more liquidity for that trade.
And more importantly, if you manage to get your 5k in, you will sweat ink to find buyers to get them out.
