Asked 4 years ago
Hi, I'm a beginner trader looking to try different trading strategies. I want to trade multiple options per day. Is there a limit as to how many options I can trade?

You can do three options day trades in a period of five days. If you do more than it which is four day trade in five days, then you would be labelled as a Pattern Day Trader. To come out of the tag of Pattern Day Trader, you must have more than $25000 in equity.
