@Ban60k I understand it perfectly these are finer details that may be confusing, @HaukeCapital PDT rule does apply to Canadians who trade US stocks on US exchanges, and you dont need a margin to trade US securities, i traded with a Cash account at TD direct investing US securities for a few months, perfectly fine, and TFSA's allow only 5K room to deposit per year, you can get up to 6 figures before CRA will tax your trading TFSA for "Business Income" yeah questrade is closed and i dont want to w

wait till tommorow ahah, Thanks for your comment! Do you trade US stocks with you canadian broker if so which one do you use?
