Recently I sold around 978 dollars of stocks from my own money. I then transferred 500 of this to my bank account, I then bought some other stock at a value less than I had in cash. After my funds cleared to my bank account, I noticed that TD Ameritrade has my margin available at -204, I still have around 10 dollars in cash within my account so it shows my margin balance at -194. I have never bought on margin, and never went over my own money. Even my cash balance says I have 10 dollars in cash and 0 margin available. Can someone explain why this happened?
