I Gave GPT 6 Astra $10,000 to Trade Stocks...And This Happened — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00Now, this is, in my opinion, a good
2. 0:02sign. I'm glad to see that we have 80%
3. 0:04of our portfolio is actually actively in
4. 0:06a position now. Now, unfortunately,
5. 0:07we're not looking too good. Today was
6. 0:10not a good day. We have lost about
7. 0:13and we ran into a bit of a hiccup. So,
8. 0:15it's definitely nothing crazy at all,
9. 0:16but we are up a little bit. Look how
10. 0:18much we've gone up.
11. 0:20So, I'm going to give Codex $10,000 of
12. 0:23real money to trade stocks for me. I
13. 0:24actually did this experiment before
14. 0:26using Open Claw, and it went all right,
15. 0:28but there was one rule that I'm going to
16. 0:29break in this challenge. And that rule
17. 0:31was that once I set the system up, I
18. 0:33couldn't touch it. But this time, the
19. 0:34rules will be different because every
20. 0:35day, I can make up to two changes if I
21. 0:37want to. And even if I lose all my
22. 0:39money, I can't stop it from trading.
23. 0:40Now, the final results will be compared
24. 0:42to the S&P 500, and I have to beat it to
25. 0:45win. But if I can't beat it, I'll be
26. 0:47giving away a free VIP ticket to our
27. 0:49upcoming event, October 17th and 18th,
28. 0:51to one of you guys. So, those are the
29. 0:53rules, and let's see what happens.
30. 0:56All right, guys. So, it's technically
31. 0:57day zero because the market is closed
32. 0:59today. Tomorrow is when the challenge
33. 1:01officially kicks off, and that is
34. 1:02official day one. But what I did today
35. 1:04is I just got everything set up. So, let
36. 1:05me show you real quick what the strategy
37. 1:07is. So, I actually started off by
38. 1:08wanting to just get its advice. I said,
39. 1:10"Hey, I'm going to be doing this trading
40. 1:11challenge. We're going to start with
41. 1:12$10,000. We have seven trading days to
42. 1:14make as much money as possible. So, I
43. 1:15want you to do a ton of research and
44. 1:17help me figure out what we need to do."
45. 1:19So, it delegated out to a ton of
46. 1:20different trading agents, and they did
47. 1:22research, and they basically helped me
48. 1:24create a strategy. And now, let me show
49. 1:25you where we're at. So, we got to this
50. 1:27place now where we're going to have six
51. 1:29wake-ups as far as actions that are
52. 1:30being taken, and then we're going to
53. 1:31have two different actions for
54. 1:32notifications, which I'll explain in a
55. 1:34sec. We'll have one before the market
56. 1:35opens to read news, to check the
57. 1:36account, and choose what stocks to
58. 1:38watch. We'll have another one about an
59. 1:39hour in to look for the first qualifying
60. 1:41trade. We'll have one midday to review
61. 1:43positions and consider the last new
62. 1:44trade. We'll have one in the afternoon
63. 1:45to manage the existing positions.
64. 1:47>> [music]
65. 1:47>> One at 2:15 to close remaining
66. 1:49positions, and then one right before
67. 1:50market close to confirm whether we're
68. 1:52out and record [music] the day's
69. 1:53results. Now, what's really important to
70. 1:55think about here is the continuity
71. 1:56because we want every single agent to
72. 1:58wake up and to not feel completely
73. 2:00stateless or [music] useless. So, every
74. 2:01time an agent wakes up, it's going to
75. 2:03leave some sort of handoff message, and
76. 2:05then the next agent, when it wakes up,
77. 2:06will read that message and then take
78. 2:07action and then leave the next agent
79. 2:09another handoff message. So, this is
80. 2:10going to very much feel like we just
81. 2:11have one [music] agent working through
82. 2:13the whole thing. And so, what that
83. 2:14actually looks like in practice is all
84. 2:15of the routines are set up and they look
85. 2:17like they're deactivated because they
86. 2:18don't become active until tomorrow
87. 2:20because, you [music] know, today is not
88. 2:22a trading day. Anyways, we'll have this
89. 2:24one at 7:45, we'll have this one at
90. 2:259:30, 11:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m., 2:15, 2:45,
91. 2:29and 3:15. And what's really cool about
92. 2:30all these routines is that they all run
93. 2:32in this exact same thread. [music] So,
94. 2:34I'll be able to just watch one thread
95. 2:35and I'll be able to see everything that
96. 2:36they're doing. So, anyways, guys, just a
97. 2:38quick peek behind the curtain of the way
98. 2:39that I set this up and how simple this
99. 2:41really was. It's all running in Codex
100. 2:43with GPT-6 Astra [music] on high. So,
101. 2:46I'll see you guys in day one.
102. 2:48All right, guys, well, it is the end of
103. 2:50the first official trading day of the
104. 2:51challenge. It is 3:10 [music] Central.
105. 2:53You probably can't see that, but the
106. 2:55market just closed, so I wanted to do a
107. 2:56quick update on where we're at. So, at
108. 2:57the end of day one, we're at a total of
109. 3:00$9,991.
110. 3:03So, So, we lost about like
111. 3:05nine bucks. Now, I'm a little frustrated
112. 3:07because this is a 7-day challenge, so we
113. 3:08only have six trading days left and this
114. 3:11isn't much progress at all. I honestly
115. 3:12would have been happier if we lost like
116. 3:14500 today because at least I knew we
117. 3:16were kind of, you know, taking some
118. 3:17risks. So, what ended up happening was
119. 3:19it bought some Tesla and it had a stop
120. 3:21on it, and then the stop was executed
121. 3:23right away because it dropped. And it
122. 3:25did buy like nine shares, so it was a
123. 3:26lot of money. It was a little over
124. 3:28$3,000 that was, you know, at risk. So,
125. 3:30because in this challenge I'm allowed to
126. 3:31make tweaks throughout, I changed
127. 3:33something up. So, I basically was like,
128. 3:34"Hey, you know, this is a 7-day
129. 3:35challenge, right?" So, we only have six
130. 3:36days left. And now it says, "I
131. 3:38understand the urgency and I should have
132. 3:40acted on your feedback sooner." I've now
133. 3:41activated and verified the more active
134. 3:43plan. So, there's three entry reviews,
135. 3:45there's less restrictive filters.
136. 3:47Earlier, we were looking at the reward
137. 3:48to risk ratio being two to one, but it
138. 3:51lowered it now to 1.5 to 1. So, maybe
139. 3:53tomorrow we'll see some more movement in
140. 3:55our account because like I said, we've
141. 3:56only got six trading days left. I got to
142. 3:58go catch a flight, so I'll see you guys
143. 4:00for an update in day two.
144. 4:07All right, I'm currently at the Google
145. 4:09campus headquarters and I've got a day
146. 4:11two update for you guys. So,
147. 4:13let's get it to it. All right, so it's
148. 4:14day two and we ran into a bit of a
149. 4:16hiccup. Let me explain how this is
150. 4:17actually working and then I'll reveal
151. 4:19the day two results. So, as you guys
152. 4:20know, this is running on GPT-6 Astra
153. 4:22>> [music]
154. 4:22>> and it actually has a restriction in
155. 4:24there and it stopped trading for me. It
156. 4:25doesn't let me place trades. So, it
157. 4:27basically says, "Hey, I can help you
158. 4:28strategize, but I'm not going to
159. 4:29actually execute these automatically on
160. 4:31your behalf." And I tried to talk to it.
161. 4:33I tried to tell it that I wanted to.
162. 4:34It's still just not letting me. It's
163. 4:36like a model restriction. So, what I've
164. 4:37now set up is an actual GrokBot. His
165. 4:39name is Trader and he has this webhook
166. 4:41for when an email hits the account. So,
167. 4:44this GrokBot has its own email. So, what
168. 4:46happens [music] is Astra, when the
169. 4:48routine runs, it finishes off by sending
170. 4:50GrokBot an email and then GrokBot wakes
171. 4:52up, takes that email with the
172. 4:53recommendations, and then goes ahead and
173. 4:54processes the trade [music] through
174. 4:56Alpaca. So, it's still Astra with the
175. 4:57mastermind and with the strategy and the
176. 4:59research and then just delegating the
177. 5:00actual trade action to GrokBot. So, now
178. 5:02that I've got that out of the way, let's
179. 5:03talk about day two. So, this is kind of
180. 5:05frustrating because on day two, we're
181. 5:07pretty much right where we were after
182. 5:08day one. It literally did basically
183. 5:10nothing today and the daily change, as
184. 5:11you can see, was $0.21.
185. 5:14Now, this was the end of day two, so we
186. 5:15only have five days left and that's
187. 5:17that's pretty unacceptable. It's pretty
188. 5:18frustrating. So, because I'm able to
189. 5:20actually change up how this works, I
190. 5:21need to make this thing more active. I
191. 5:23need to have it wake up more often,
192. 5:24maybe every 30 minutes. I need to have
193. 5:25it be more aggressive. [music] It has
194. 5:27too many barriers right now where it's
195. 5:28looking through stocks and it's it's
196. 5:30understanding this might be a good pick
197. 5:31it basically just like rejects it at the
198. 5:32last second because it's too risky
199. 5:34[music] or for some other gate, it just
200. 5:36doesn't pass the final gate. So, I'm
201. 5:37going to kind of take off some of those
202. 5:39gates and see if we can't get a little
203. 5:40bit more money moving around tomorrow.
204. 5:42So, I'm going to make a few changes
205. 5:43>> [music]
206. 5:43>> and I will see you guys tomorrow and
207. 5:45hopefully, even if we're down a little
208. 5:46more, I think that'll be a win because
209. 5:48at least we know that the you know, the
210. 5:49Astro's getting a little bit more
211. 5:50aggressive. But the clock is definitely
212. 5:52ticking, so let me make some changes and
213. 5:53I'll see you guys tomorrow.
214. 5:58All right, guys. So, it is Sunday. I did
215. 6:00not do an update for day three on
216. 6:02Friday, so the market isn't moving
217. 6:03today, but let me show you what
218. 6:04happened. So, this is basically going to
219. 6:06be my day three check-in. Now, if you
220. 6:07guys remember at the end of day two, I
221. 6:09had to basically update the strategy a
222. 6:10little bit, shift it up to make our
223. 6:12agent a bit more aggressive because it
224. 6:13like wasn't really making any moves and
225. 6:15we were two days in, so I was getting a
226. 6:16little bit worried. So, we now do have a
227. 6:18little bit of money moving around. Let
228. 6:19me show you guys where we're at. So,
229. 6:21it's definitely nothing crazy at all,
230. 6:22but we are up a little bit. We're at
231. 6:24$10,018.
232. 6:26So, we're up about 18 bucks. Now, here's
233. 6:27currently what we actually have. We've
234. 6:29got almost $2,000 in HPE. We've got
235. 6:321,200 bucks in Exxon [music] Mobil, and
236. 6:34we've got about $1,000 in Apple. And
237. 6:36over here, you can see that we're up
238. 6:37about 30 here, up about seven here, and
239. 6:39down eight over here. Now, this puts us
240. 6:42at about $4,000 of cash actually in the
241. 6:44market right now, and we still have you
242. 6:45know, 5,800. So, we've got about 60% of
243. 6:48the 10K still just sitting in cash, not
244. 6:50doing [music] anything. So, I think
245. 6:51tonight I'm going to talk to my agent a
246. 6:52little bit more and say, "Hey, you know
247. 6:53what? We're heading into day four. We're
248. 6:55you know, about halfway through, and
249. 6:57we've not really leveraged most of our
250. 6:58cash. So, let's see if we can get a
251. 6:59little bit more active here and you
252. 7:01know, just take on some bigger positions
253. 7:02or some more positions." Now, I think
254. 7:04it's a really great sign that we're
255. 7:05actually up about 18 bucks and here's
256. 7:07why. [music] In this challenge, I'm not
257. 7:08trying to tell you guys that I'm going
258. 7:09to be able to turn 10K into 15K in seven
259. 7:11days in the stock market. That's just
260. 7:12very unrealistic. I'm also not an expert
261. 7:14day trader. I don't have a day trading
262. 7:16background. So, really what I'm trying
263. 7:17to do here is I'm just trying to beat
264. 7:18the S&P.
265. 7:18>> [music]
266. 7:18>> The S&P 500 is basically a collection of
267. 7:21the 500 largest companies in the US, so
268. 7:23it just gives you a really good
269. 7:24indication of where the US market is
270. 7:26headed and how it's performing. And
271. 7:28right now, as you can see, go Bears by
272. 7:29the way, that [music] the S&P, if I was
273. 7:32to have invested $10,000 into the S&P on
274. 7:35Wednesday, September 9th, which is when
275. 7:36this challenge started, we would
276. 7:37actually be down money. We'd be down
277. 7:39about five bucks. So, in this challenge,
278. 7:41yes, I'm trying to make money, but
279. 7:43really what I'm trying to do is beat the
280. 7:44S&P. If the S&P is down 10% and we only
281. 7:46go down 5%, that's a win. So, anyways,
282. 7:49just wanted to give you guys that
283. 7:49context. Just wanted to give you an
284. 7:50update for day three. I will check in
285. 7:52tomorrow on Monday after the market
286. 7:53closes with a day four update. So, see
287. 7:56you guys there.
288. 8:01It's very hot. Good morning, guys. It's
289. 8:03It's day four of the challenge. The
290. 8:05market just opened, so let me give you
291. 8:07guys a quick update. All right, so last
292. 8:09time I checked in with you guys we were
293. 8:10actually up like I forgot like 17 bucks
294. 8:12or something, but we are now down. We're
295. 8:13down to 9876,
296. 8:16so not good overnight. Now, what's
297. 8:18interesting about 30 minutes to an hour
298. 8:20before the market opened, we actually
299. 8:22sold everything. So, now we have three
300. 8:23different positions that pretty much
301. 8:25just got executed. But, what you will
302. 8:26notice here is that we only have $2,000
303. 8:28just sitting in cash. [music] So, we
304. 8:30have about 8K right now actually in the
305. 8:32market working for us. Now, this is in
306. 8:34my opinion a good sign. I'm glad to see
307. 8:36that we have 80% of our portfolio is
308. 8:38actually actively in a position now
309. 8:40because yesterday you guys heard me and
310. 8:42you know, the day one and two I was
311. 8:43getting frustrated. I was like, okay,
312. 8:44nothing's really happening. We need to
313. 8:46get more aggressive. We need to actually
314. 8:47get our money working for us. So, we
315. 8:49have a lot of money in there today.
316. 8:51Let's see if we can't
317. 8:52have a big day. But, it's 8:50 a.m.
318. 8:54right now. The market pretty much just
319. 8:55opened. I'm about to hop into my
320. 8:57community Q&A, but I will give you guys
321. 8:58an update later today when the market
322. 9:00closes. All right, guys. It's about 4:30
323. 9:02p.m. Central Time. It's time for an
324. 9:04update. This is not a very pretty graph.
325. 9:06Pretty much just consistently went down
326. 9:08all day. The daily change today was down
327. 9:10$225
328. 9:12putting us at about 9800 bucks. Now, we
329. 9:14do have a lot of the money in the
330. 9:15market. So, we've only got about 1200
331. 9:17bucks in cash. So, tomorrow hopefully we
332. 9:18can have all of this market value pick
333. 9:20up for us. Here you can see we're down
334. 9:22quite a bit here on CrowdStrike. We also
335. 9:24have a position in the S&P ETF here,
336. 9:26which is interesting. You know, the
337. 9:28agent knows that one of the motivations
338. 9:29is to beat the S&P 500, so kind of an
339. 9:31interesting call. I'm definitely going
340. 9:33to ask it why it did that, but we've got
341. 9:35some other stuff here. Nothing too
342. 9:36crazy, but we lost a lot of money there.
343. 9:38But anyways, down about 200, a little
344. 9:40over 200 on the day, down about 2.26%
345. 9:43and today the S&P was down about 0.5%.
346. 9:46So, today alone we did not beat the S&P.
347. 9:48We actually performed a lot worse than
348. 9:49the S&P today. So anyways, I'm going to
349. 9:51talk to my agent a little bit, you know,
350. 9:53we're heading into day five, so we've
351. 9:54got day five, day six, and day seven
352. 9:56left. Three trading days left to try to
353. 9:58turn this thing around. I'll see you
354. 9:59guys tomorrow.
355. 10:04All right, guys. So, it is 9:42 a.m.
356. 10:07Tuesday, September 15th. So, this is day
357. 10:08five of the challenge and I had to give
358. 10:10you guys a quick update this morning
359. 10:11because our agent is certainly getting
360. 10:13more aggressive here. You can see that
361. 10:15we only have $8 in cash right here,
362. 10:17which means over almost $10,000 is
363. 10:20invested right now. So, this is what
364. 10:21we're currently working with. I woke up,
365. 10:22you know, my Grok Bot was sending me all
366. 10:24of these trades. We've got a lot of
367. 10:25money in the market right now. You can
368. 10:27see a lot of red over here. Daily change
369. 10:29is down 13 bucks at the moment, but hey,
370. 10:31I know, looks like we might be catching
371. 10:32some momentum here. So, right now we're
372. 10:33sitting at 9,000 783. I do believe we're
373. 10:37still a little bit behind of the S&P and
374. 10:39obviously that's the goal, so I'm going
375. 10:40to hope we're holding strong through the
376. 10:42rest of the day and I'll give you guys
377. 10:43an update today as the market is closing
378. 10:45on day five. So, see you guys in a bit.
379. 10:47All right, day five has come to a close.
380. 10:50It's time for an update. After five full
381. 10:52days of trading, we are at a whopping
382. 10:549,832.58.
383. 10:56Now, the good news is we were up on the
384. 10:58day. The daily change was about 36 bucks
385. 11:00and you can see that that puts us up
386. 11:02about 0.37 percentage points. Whereas
387. 11:04today the S&P was down 0.45 percentage
388. 11:07points. So, we definitely beat the S&P
389. 11:09today, but we still have quite a while
390. 11:11to go because you can see on day one if
391. 11:13we would have invested $10,000 into the
392. 11:15S&P 500, we would have more money. We
393. 11:17would have 9,925,
394. 11:19whereas today what we have is something
395. 11:20more around this figure right here. So,
396. 11:22we are still behind the S&P. So,
397. 11:24obviously we're right now losing the
398. 11:25challenge. We're, you know, a little bit
399. 11:27behind the S&P by about 100 bucks and we
400. 11:29have two days to make that up. And just
401. 11:30in case you guys are curious, this is
402. 11:32where we're at as far as our positions
403. 11:34right now. We've got 63 bucks in cash,
404. 11:36the rest [music] is invested, and these
405. 11:37are the positions we currently have and
406. 11:39their market values. But it's really
407. 11:41interesting, right? I mean, today we
408. 11:42changed only 35 bucks, 36 bucks, and we
409. 11:44had like $10,000 of cash in the market.
410. 11:47And so that's why this challenge is
411. 11:48really interesting because obviously
412. 11:49when you're investing in the stock
413. 11:50market, unless you're doing some crazy
414. 11:52swing trading and crazy options with
415. 11:54tons and tons of money, you're not
416. 11:55really going to go up or down too much.
417. 11:56It's always more of a long-term
418. 11:58strategy. So if you guys are interested
419. 11:59in having me keep this thing going for
420. 12:0130 days, 60 days, 90 days, a full year,
421. 12:03let me know. I'd love to do that for you
422. 12:04guys and obviously make some videos
423. 12:06about it. But that is day five. I'm
424. 12:08going to check in with you guys
425. 12:08tomorrow. We've got two days left. So
426. 12:10let's see how this goes.
427. 12:15All right. So I wasn't actually going to
428. 12:16do an update yet. It's day six, you
429. 12:18know, it's about 2:20 p.m. I was just
430. 12:20going to do one later at the end of the
431. 12:21day, but I wanted to talk about this
432. 12:23real quick. So today, the Federal
433. 12:24Reserve unanimously voted to raise its
434. 12:26interest rates by 25 basis points, so
435. 12:29from 3.75%
436. 12:31to 4%. Now essentially what that means
437. 12:32is that borrowing gets more expensive
438. 12:33and investors may pay less for stocks in
439. 12:35general. Now the good news is sometimes
440. 12:37following a rate hike, all of these
441. 12:38stocks kind of feel like they're on
442. 12:40discount, like everything's on sale, so
443. 12:41you can buy when they're low, you know,
444. 12:43buy in the dip, and then they're going
445. 12:44to go back up. But in a 7-day trading
446. 12:45challenge, that really doesn't help us
447. 12:47very much at all. You can actually see
448. 12:48the S&P pretty much right after this
449. 12:50announcement just started to drop, which
450. 12:52means unfortunately, so did our
451. 12:54portfolio. So as you can see, we are
452. 12:56down quite a bit on the day. So I'll
453. 12:58give an official update at the end of
454. 12:59day six once the market closes, but man,
455. 13:03not exactly what we wanted to see. All
456. 13:04right. It is 3:56 at the end of day six,
457. 13:07so let's do an update. Now
458. 13:08unfortunately, we're not looking too
459. 13:10good. Today was not a good day. You can
460. 13:12see that we're sitting at 9,759,
461. 13:15and we're down about 0.87% on the day.
462. 13:18We lost 85 bucks, and we've got $3,600
463. 13:22sitting here in cash. Now when the
464. 13:24announcement came out about the Fed
465. 13:26hiking rates, um Ashley decided to sell
466. 13:28a bunch of stock, so we had pretty much
467. 13:29all of our money in the market, but then
468. 13:32it sold a decent amount of money. We
469. 13:33were actually sitting at like 7K in cash
470. 13:35for about an hour or so. It decided to
471. 13:37pick up 80 shares of FPS, and we dropped
472. 13:41a little bit on that, but you know,
473. 13:43heading into day seven, we've got a lot
474. 13:44of work to do. Here's how the S&P closed
475. 13:46today, and it was down 0.45%, which
476. 13:49isn't I mean terrible, but we were down
477. 13:510.87%. So, according to Codex, if we
478. 13:53would have put our 10K just into the S&P
479. 13:55at the start of this challenge, we would
480. 13:57only be down 9,857.
481. 14:00So, we would have lost about 140 bucks
482. 14:02so far, but we have lost about 240. So,
483. 14:05like I said, wasn't a great day. We've
484. 14:07got one more trading day to see if we
485. 14:09can come out on top of the S&P somehow.
486. 14:12I'm obviously going to see if I can get
487. 14:13this 3,600 bucks that's sitting in cash
488. 14:16into the market, see if we can get that
489. 14:18working for us tomorrow. We need a huge
490. 14:19day tomorrow, so I'm going to talk a
491. 14:20little bit here to Astra. We'll see what
492. 14:22we can do, and hopefully I've got a cool
493. 14:24update for you guys tomorrow, and we're
494. 14:25able to bounce back to close off the
495. 14:27week. So, I will see you guys tomorrow.
496. 14:34All right, good morning, guys. It is day
497. 14:35seven. It's the last day of the
498. 14:37challenge. It's a super gloomy and rainy
499. 14:39day outside. Quick morning update. So,
500. 14:41as of this morning,
501. 14:42$10,012.
502. 14:44Look how much we've gone up. Just
503. 14:45kidding. We were up, and then we tanked
504. 14:47hard. So, right now we're actually
505. 14:49sitting about 9,868.
506. 14:51But man, look at this. I was so excited
507. 14:53to see this, and then boom, we tanked.
508. 14:55But luckily, Astra went ahead and sold
509. 14:57this position before we ended up tanking
510. 14:59more, so that helped. But we actually
511. 15:00just had a trade go through. We only
512. 15:02have $100 in cash, so we've got a lot of
513. 15:04money in here working for us. So,
514. 15:06hopefully we're able to come up even
515. 15:07more. We're up 153 on the day, but I'm
516. 15:09just going to sit here and stare at the
517. 15:11screen all day, just watch everything
518. 15:12happen, keep my hands off of the
519. 15:14keyboard, and I will check in with you
520. 15:15guys later. Hopefully, in the next
521. 15:17couple of hours we can pull ahead, and
522. 15:19we can win this challenge. But I'll see
523. 15:20you guys when the market closes. All
524. 15:22right, guys, it is 5:00 p.m. on day
525. 15:25seven. Let's take a look at the results.
526. 15:27So, unfortunately, we were not able to
527. 15:28hold on to the challenge high that we
528. 15:30actually hit the high on the last day.
529. 15:33We ended up 9,900. So, pretty much $100
530. 15:37down. Now, I think this is really
531. 15:39interesting because throughout this
532. 15:40whole challenge, we had to kind of find
533. 15:41our footing. I feel like we only got
534. 15:43truly five days of trading days because
535. 15:45the first two, the agent was way too
536. 15:48passive. And I think on day three is
537. 15:50when we really started to get like all
538. 15:52of our cash actually moving around in
539. 15:53the market, and we started to see a bit
540. 15:55more, you know, up and down. Now,
541. 15:56obviously, we are also just trading
542. 15:58stocks in this challenge, essentially
543. 15:59just owning, you know, kind of a piece
544. 16:01of a company. Whereas, if we were to be
545. 16:03opening up this trading strategy to
546. 16:04options, which is definitely possible,
547. 16:06where you're more so buying a bet that a
548. 16:08stock moves in a certain direction, that
549. 16:10could have helped us win or lose a lot
550. 16:12more money because you're basically just
551. 16:14you're risking a lot more money. So,
552. 16:15obviously, what I'm going to do is I'm
553. 16:16going to keep changing up the strategy a
554. 16:17little bit, and I'm going to keep this
555. 16:18going and maybe make another video for
556. 16:20you guys by day 30 because last time I
557. 16:22did this, it was 30 days, it was just
558. 16:23stocks, and we did beat the S&P. So, I
559. 16:25want to see if we get more aggressive,
560. 16:26how much we can beat the S&P by. So,
561. 16:28you'll notice that today we actually
562. 16:29were up a decent amount. Today, we got
563. 16:31182 bucks into the account, and [music]
564. 16:34we were up 1.87%. Now, the S&P today
565. 16:37also had a decent day and was up 1.14%.
566. 16:41So, just on the day, we beat the S&P. We
567. 16:43were up a lot more than the S&P today,
568. 16:45but overall, the whole challenge,
569. 16:48we were not. If I would have put the
570. 16:49$10,000 into the S&P on day one, we
571. 16:52would be at 9,980 bucks. But, today, we
572. 16:55are at 9,900.
573. 16:57So, the S&P did beat us by about 0.8%.
574. 17:00Now, obviously, that is a loss, and a
575. 17:02deal is a deal, so one of you guys are
576. 17:04going to be getting a free VIP pass
577. 17:07>> [music]
578. 17:07>> to AIS Live October 17th and 18th. About
579. 17:09a week after this video goes live inside
580. 17:11of my free community, there's going to
581. 17:12be a post for this video, and you just
582. 17:14have to comment on it in order to be
583. 17:16eligible, and then I'll DM one of you
584. 17:17guys and say, "Hey, you got the
585. 17:18challenge." Or you won the challenge.
586. 17:20But, I'm sure a lot of you guys, based
587. 17:21on the title of this video, were
588. 17:22expecting that I was either going to be
589. 17:23up like 5K or down like 5K. But, that's
590. 17:25just not really what happens in the
591. 17:27stock market on such a short amount
592. 17:29[music] of time. Again, unless I was
593. 17:31doing day trading and swing trading with
594. 17:33like $20,000, $100,000, $500,000, that's
595. 17:37when [music] you see those massive
596. 17:38numbers of up and down. So, ultimately,
597. 17:39I don't think that just giving Astra
598. 17:41seven trading days was enough to really
599. 17:43know if this is a viable strategy. So,
600. 17:45I'm definitely going to keep this thing
601. 17:46going and bring you guys some more
602. 17:47updates in the future. But anyways, that
603. 17:49is going to do it for this one. So, I
604. 17:50hope you guys enjoyed or learned
605. 17:51something new. And if you did, please
606. 17:53give it a like. It helps me out a ton.
607. 17:54And as always, I appreciate you guys
608. 17:55making it to the end of the video. I'll
609. 17:56see you all in the next one.
610. 17:58Thanks everyone.
