5 Great Micro Cap Stocks

Today I wanted to find some micro cap stocks that had good technical indicators and charts so I used Barchart to screen their database for stocks that had under $2 billion in market capitalization and a price under $10 that had technical buy signals of 80% or higher. I then sorted the results for the ones with the highest number of new highs in the last month and used the Flipchart feature to review the charts.

Today's list includes:

 GSE Systems (NYSEMKT:GVP), 

Naugatuck Valley Financial (NASDAQ:NVSL), 

Central Garden and Pet (NASDAQ:CENT),

Prophase Labs (NASDAQ:PRPH) and

Biotime (NYSEMKT:BTX):
