Hello ,

First congrats to NexusFi (formerly BMT) forum.

I have a question regarding the "Pattern day trader" requirements in the US to trade .

I know that the account must be founded with at least 25K US dollars to trade stocks but does this apply also to futures and spot/future forex ?

Thanks

No, the pattern day trade rule only applies to stocks.
