Best Penny Stocks to Watch in June 2025

Once a stock price is below $5 per share, it is categorized as a penny stock. Frequently, but not always, penny stocks have small market capitalizations and are prone to high volatility due to low liquidity and trading volumes. Penny stocks can, therefore, provide an opportunity for large, quick gains because a small movement in the price of a penny stock can produce a large percentage gain. But they also carry significant risks compared to more established stocks. To guard against the risks associated with investing in penny stocks, the stocks discussed in this article have a minimum price and volume, along with clear chart patterns and other technical analysis indicators.

Below is an analysis of developing bullish patterns in penny stocks for June 2025, pulled from a screen showing positive one-month performance, a minimum price of $1.50, and a 30-day average daily volume of at least 200,000 shares.

All charts and data are current as of May 27, 2025.

ADC Therapeutics (ADCT) is a Switzerland-based commercial-stage global pioneer in the field of antibody drug conjugates. Its stock has been showing signs of strength following a deep retracement that almost reached the 88.6% Fibonacci level. A higher swing low was established in early April at $1.05, which possibly completed the bottom of a bull flag pattern.

The bearish retracement that formed the flag followed a $5.68 or 1,578% rally (pole) off the trend bottom of $0.36 from November 2023. Recent signs of strength include the 20-week moving average (purple) being reclaimed a couple of weeks ago and the 50-week moving average (orange), which is currently being challenged. Notice that the 50-week moving average is near the top trendline for the small declining channel that defines the flag. A decisive upside breakout above the top line will provide an initial breakout signal, which would be confirmed by a closing price above the 50-week line. Subsequently, a rally above $3.49 would further confirm strength and provide a new bullish trend continuation signal.

• One-month return: 104.4%

A bull flag breakout initially triggered in the stock of Lottery.com, Inc. (LTRY) several weeks ago before bullish momentum kicked in last week. The company operates a digital platform that enables users to remotely purchase legal lottery games, and it provides real-time results and data. Volume spiked on the breakout and confirmed strong demand. In the short term, the stock looks extended but should set up for potential new longs eventually.

A sharp $2.03, or 674%, advance in only six days preceded the flag consolidation pattern. It points to the potential for another sharp advance following a breakout. Although an initial measuring objective from the pattern based on price was achieved recently, an initial target calculated on a percentage basis is higher, around $5.24. Additional recent bullish indications include a breakout above the long-term downtrend line, followed by a successful test of the line as support and a reclaim of the intermediate 50-week moving average recently after several years of being below the line. Furthermore, a sustained rally above $2.20 will trigger a bullish trend reversal.

• Price: $1.59
• One-month return: 71.9%
• Average daily trading volume: 1.3 million
• Exchange: Nasdaq

The stock of Society Pass Incorporated (SOPA) fell to a new trend low of $0.64 in early April, thereby providing an initial bear trigger for a continuation of the falling trend. However, notice that the week of the new low closed above the prior trend low of $0.72, ending as a bullish doji hammer candlestick pattern. The bulls subsequently returned and drove the stock of SOPA higher, eventually triggering a second breakout attempt above both the long-term downtrend line and the 20-week and 50-week moving averages. During the week of May 19, SOPA’s stock closed above each of those lines on a weekly basis for the first time since late February, a bullish sign. Reversals of failed breakouts can sometimes surprise, as volatility can spike and generate rapid upside moves. The 685% four-week advance that preceded the decline to new trend lows shows aggressive buying since the September 2024 bottom. Therefore, if the current advance in the stock of SOPA can be sustained it looks to have a chance to challenge the recent spike high and potential higher swing high at $6.76.

• Price: $1.44
• One-month return: 14.3%
• Average daily trading volume: 331,000
• Exchange: Nasdaq

Intrusion Inc. (INTZ) is a Texas-based cybersecurity company specializing in advanced threat intelligence, network intrusion detection, and real-time mitigation solutions for enterprises and government organizations. Its stock spiked by $6.99, or 1,979%, in two weeks from a new trend low of $0.35 reached in December. That rally signaled a bullish trend reversal as the stock reached a high of $7.34 and surpassed the highs from the first quarter of 2024. The 50-week moving average was reclaimed a little more than a month ago, and the 20-week moving average recently crossed above the 50-week line in early March. A near-term double bottom pattern formed recently as the stock of INTZ tested support. The neckline for the double bottom is at $1.55. So a decisive rally above that price level triggers the double bottom, and it could lead to demand once again spiking.

• Price: $4.69
• One-month return: 22.1%
• Average daily trading volume: 743,500
• Exchange: Nasdaq

The price pattern developing in the stock of Personalis, Inc. (PSNL) is beginning to take the form of a potentially bullish falling wedge. Trendlines across the top and bottom of the pattern are angled towards each other and will eventually cross. Although it may take a while before the pattern leads to a breakout, key price levels can be watched for now to stay abreast of potential changes in supply and demand. Furthermore, notice that the top resistance trendline of the potential wedge is confirmed by the convergence with the 200-week moving average (blue). The 200-week line is now at $5.16, while the recent lower swing high was at $5.61. If the wedge pattern continues to evolve, it would not be surprising to see the stock dip back toward the $3.09 price zone. In its current configuration, a bull breakout of the wedge would trigger on a move above $5.61.

What to Know About Penny Stocks

Many penny stocks trade via over-the-counter (OTC) markets, which means they have minimal regulatory oversight and little analyst coverage, making it difficult to access accurate company information.

However, the penny stocks we’ve identified in this article are all listed on the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, which means they are subject to the same listing requirements as any other company on these exchanges. These requirements are intended to ensure that only high-quality securities are available for trading on the exchange.

While penny stocks are a riskier investment than established stocks due to their volatility, the potential for high returns is attractive to some investors.

How We Chose the Best Penny Stocks

To screen for penny stocks with interesting chart patterns and other technical analysis indicators, we used the following criteria. Stocks had to have positive one-month performance and be priced under $5.00. To help improve the reliability of the chart patterns, the stocks had to have a minimum price of $1.50 and an average 30-day trading volume of at least 200,000. The stock also had to have at least 24 months of trading history.

The charts were also reviewed for bullish patterns, including breakouts above trendlines, key resistance, and moving averages. Candlestick patterns were also considered, as we looked for signs that pointed to a bullish trend reversal or indications that a trend was strengthening. Still, it’s important to remember that past performance is not a guarantee of future performance.

Penny Stock Advantages and Disadvantages

The low price of penny stocks offers investors high potential for growth, and they can give smaller businesses a platform to access funding. But while these stocks can bring investors significant gains, they also carry the risk of significant losses. There are greater risks associated with investing in penny stocks than with more established stocks.

Penny stocks usually lack liquidity. It can also be difficult to find solid public information about penny stock companies that trade over the counter. Given the additional risks, penny stocks are not suitable for all investors, especially those with a low risk tolerance.

Another disadvantage is that the price patterns may take longer to unfold and single-position drawdowns can be larger than normal, given the higher potential volatility in low-priced stocks.

There are ways to mitigate the added risks, starting with raising the minimum price and average trading volume and selecting penny stocks that trade on the NYSE or Nasdaq. Overall portfolio risk can be contained by allocating only a small amount of total capital to the penny stock market.

By carefully screening, watching, and waiting for price patterns to unfold, investors can access a market environment that has the potential for large gains in a relatively short period of time. But that depends on entering a position at the right time.

The Bottom Line 

Penny stocks have the potential to sometimes see sharp multi-week or month rallies that, on a percentage basis, exceed expectations. They can present opportunities for investors that are difficult to find otherwise. This article features five interesting charts of penny stocks that had advanced during the prior month and showed upside potential, given the presented technical analysis.
