Time/week spent: 10h - 20h

When working as an AI Algorithmic Trading Developer, the time commitment typically ranges from 10 to 20 hours per week. Initially, more hours are required for setup, learning, and developing algorithms, which can take up to 2 weeks to become profitable. Tasks include learning about trading strategies, programming, backtesting algorithms, and monitoring live trades. Over time, as systems are set up and optimized, the workload may decrease towards the lower end of the range. Online communities suggest that this side hustle can be demanding due to the continuous need for monitoring and adjusting algorithms to ensure profitability.
