What's up you guys? Alright, well today is I think day 11 of the TD Ameritrade Small Account side Hustle Challenge and it's a red day down for our bucks. It's Big Red day. It took that one trade, got on the wrong side of it and got a big loss. so a little bit of a setback here.

kind of discouraging cuz the progress and this account has been a little on the slower side. but that's part of trading so the only thing I can do is get back on the horse, get back in the saddle and hopefully my next day will be a green day. As always, you guys have questions, comments, leave them down below and I'll see you guys first thing of course tomorrow morning. You guys should subscribe to the channel for my watch list and then the next.

TD Ameritrade Side Hustle Challenge will be the next day at trading account. Alright, that's it for me. See you guys tomorrow! Alright you guys! So um, quick recap TD Ameritrade Small Account side Hustle Challenge today is I think day 11 first red day since my first day. so second red day now down 406 dollars I didn't trade in this account all last week.

I was traveling a little bit and the markets been just so crazy and of course TD Ameritrade has had some issues with lag and things like that so I've been kind of picky about what I'm willing to trade and today I finally took one and I jumped into this I guess I got in at thirty thirty five in my TD Ameritrade account. I traded in my big account and also lost money there and I stopped out at three when it came back down. So this was a stock coming out of a circuit breaker haul that I jumped into now. sadly, this is another stock that did the same thing that got halted.

it opened higher and squeezed up to a high of 450. That's what I thought was gonna happen on MTP So I got into this coming out of the hall, it opened a little bit higher and I jumped in, squeezed up here as you can see to a high of 68. It then came down to three and I stopped out right around here after giving it a few minutes to consolidate and thank goodness because it ended up dropping all the way to 255. Now in my big account I stopped out at 259 so my big account I had a bigger position and I stopped out second I stopped out in the small account first mostly because I knew TD Ameritrade might take a second or two to fill it, just sometimes a little slower.

So I was like I better hit it here and yeah, so I'm so bummed out that you know I just I picked the wrong one today and MTI o worked and mi MTP didn't and unfortunately that uses all of my buying power for you know, the next day two days so I won't be able to trading it tomorrow. I'm back down now to just under $4,000 but I can trade in it again on the day after tomorrow. You know this side hustle challenge for me, it's like it's such a test of my patience because with a cash-only account, I can only trade at most every day once with half of my cash balance. So I could trade every day with $2,000 or I could trade every other day with the full cash balance of 4000.

but you know it really limits how much I can trade. So I'm trying to be picky and wait for a quality set ups. or wait for a stock that I think really has the potential to rip and take off and it just you know to have a loss and then I'm not gonna be able trading it for two days. It's a test on my patience for sure.

I'm a little bummed out, but you know this is part of the deal of trading a small account. I think that if this was my only focus, what I would probably be doing would be trading taking one trade each day. I'd probably take one trade each day. obviously might not be a home run trader each day.

whatever. but you know I would take one trade a day using half of the buying power. So two thousand dollar trades each day. But the other challenge is that if I want to take this trade with my big count first, I you know I have to get in on one of them whether it's my big count first and then switch over here or I buy here and then switch over to my big account and get in and to trade to stocks there.

To trade one stock twice in two separate places is hard because of course you have to separate risk tolerances. you have to separate entries. It's very hard to get the exact same entry you know and and to several platforms with different hotkeys and everything else. And it's kind of like trying to drive two cars at once or ride two bicycles at once now saying it can't be done.

But it's a challenge and if anyone's up for the challenge, I suppose it to me. but I am getting a little a little impatient and I you know I don't know how much longer I'll keep doing this challenge hopefully I get a couple nice green days in here and can make some good progress I feel like it's one of these challenges that it's gonna be very slow until I unless I commit to really focusing on it every day. but in order to do that I would have to sacrifice making money and my main account. and last month I made sixty six thousand dollars.

So I don't really want to turn my back on that kind of money for this challenge. So I don't know I think I'm a little bit more but in any case, you know not gonna make any decisions. today. it's just one red day.

not a big deal so be back at it. Not tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow and hopefully I can get a nice trade. you know, get this account back up to forty four hundred and you know, start making my way up towards five grand. Alright, so that's it for me.

quick. TD Ameritrade Side Hustle Challenge and we back at it first thing tomorrow morning with my main account. Alright and there we go. Scanners are reset alright.
