What was the first play was it the $800 to 9k qqq call ?

It wouldn’t make sense because the profit on that trade was 182% which means his initial investment was around 5k in order to make 9k .. I think he left out the early trades .. if I’m wrong I would def need an explanation lol

Yeah had the same conclusion as u. But the be fair, if he could’ve gotten 5k to 100k, that $800 to 5k would be quite insignificant as well.

Mans lucked out this run or he’s really good

Its the trading timeline idk if it would work out, he would need a margin account to make all those trade so close together and you need 25k to day trade with a margin account

I don’t use this broker so I’m not sure how it works. For mine as long as u have cash there is no limits on trades. Why would he need 25k?

On robinhood you need to have more than 25k in a margin account in order to make more than 5 day trades in one week otherwise your account gets flagged.

It's not just Robinhood. It's the pattern day trader rule.

Wait my broker doesn’t have such regulations tho. Or is it a thing only for US citizens?

Getting from 800 to 5k is pretty difficult without being able to consistently day trade, he def started this account with more than 800$
