I already let some friends know some ways to avoid getting caught in the PDT rule trap by opening up different accounts at different brokerages or by trading in a CASH account.
But let's go over some other questions you might have.

What’s the major differences in trading Chinese stocks vs US stocks? And do you think that new bill to delist Chinese stocks will affect anything?
Your 11/24 PDT response: You can open up different accounts at different brokerages and every one gets you 3 day trades in 5 days as long as you have $2.000 balance and a margin account. A cash account means you can't trade on margin.

You can only day trade long what you have in your account and that money will clear and be available to trade again every 2 days. Lets say you have $10,000 in your cash account and you make $1,000 day trades.
