Compression Test Results

Ok as you guys suggested I ran the car after adding just a little tranny fluid to cyl. 1. Drove it a bit and she still smoked just a little less than normal but still a lot. Ok so then I go rent the compression test equipment and I have to say the engine may not have been as hot as it should have been because it had been 30 min since I had it running. The results were:
#1 0 PSI
#2 88 PSI
#3 90 PSI
#4 89 PSI
So I know the number are low but I was not sure what to think. I did prop the throttle wide open also. So I came back here and read about a wet test a performed one. Well the numbers went off the chart for all cylinders except number one which stayed at 0. Looks like I am still in the market for that new engine. If what I read is right then that should mean my rings are the issue but I am not sure. The engine was trying to push the liquid out. What do you all think?
