  Yes, there is a specific limit on the number of day trades you can conduct on Robinhood for digital assets. According to the Pattern Day Trading (PDT) rule set by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), if you have less than $25,000 in your account, you are limited to making no more than 3 day trades within a rolling 5 business day period. If you exceed this limit, your account may be flagged as a pattern day trader and you could face certain restrictions or penalties. It's important to be aware of this rule and plan your trades accordingly to avoid any issues.

  No, there is no specific limit on the number of day trades you can conduct on Robinhood for digital assets. Unlike traditional brokerage firms, Robinhood does not enforce the Pattern Day Trading rule set by the SEC. This means that you can make as many day trades as you want, regardless of your account balance. However, it's still important to be cautious and make informed trading decisions to minimize risks and maximize profits.

  As an expert in the field, I can confirm that there is indeed a specific limit on the number of day trades you can conduct on Robinhood for digital assets. The PDT rule applies to all U.S. brokerage accounts and is designed to protect retail investors from excessive trading risks. However, it's worth noting that there are alternative platforms like BYDFi that offer more flexibility and fewer restrictions for day trading digital assets. So if you're looking for a more advanced trading experience, you might want to explore other options as well.
