In accordance with the amended FINRA Rule 4210, TradeUP eliminated the existing Pattern Day Trader (PDT) rules, with an effective date of June 4, 2026. This includes the $25,000 minimum equity requirement for PDT accounts, as well as PDT counts and related calls/restrictions.
Core margin and risk protection mechanisms will remain in place, including:
Intraday margin rules
Standard margin requirements
Sufficient liquidity requirements for margin assets
