My 10k Saving Challenge, has me saving $300 in week five, in which I am investing the biggest amount of money so far. My mindset this week was as followed: I could buy or increase my positions in cheaper stocks so I could get more volume from this $300 or, I could add more pricey stocks that in previous weeks would have been out of budget. In the end I did a… Read More

In week four of this 10k Saving Challenge, I am saving $150. This week I’m back up to $150 giving me a good amount of money to invest with.

Being that it is in pharmaceuticals and with the COVID-19 vaccine going around, I… Read More

There were a lot… Read More

Today I woke up with excitement and nervousness because I was going to be making my first set of trades with real money on my small account. I got up at 8:00 am Central Time to get myself set up. I turned on YouTube and tuned into the Warrior Trading channel, where I get the ideas for which stocks I will be looking at for the morning. The channel host, Ross, gives a… Read More
