PDT Rule - Pattern Day Trader Rule: Day Traders with an account under $25,000 can only day trade 3 times within a consecutive 5 day period, if they're trading a margin account in a US based brokerage.

Four Options to get around the Pattern Day Trader Rule
1. Open a cash account to day trade
Since PDT rule only applies to margin trading accounts, you can open cash accounts to trade with no day trade limitations. The downside is that you cannot short sell stocks in a cash account. And the cash will take 2 days to settle.

2. Open multiple margin accounts to day trade
If you divide your capital into multiple margin accounts, you can have more day trades.

3. Open an offshore trading account
This option isn't recommended but offshore brokers like Trade Zero International and CMEG do not have the PDT rule limiations for day traders with a small account

4. Buy and swing trades overnight
