🚨 THE $25,000 PDT RULE IS DEAD: RETAIL HAS THE MACHINE GUN 🚨
The "wealth test" is officially history. As of yesterday, April 14, 2026, the SEC and FINRA finalized the total destruction of the $25,000 PDT rule. The gatekeepers have lost their grip.
THE HARD FACTS:
• NO MORE $25,000 MINIMUM: The SEC officially approved the elimination of the $25,000 equity requirement for day trading.
• UNLIMITED TRADES: The "Pattern Day Trader" designation is scrapped. You can now fire UNLIMITED trades in any margin account with at least $2,000.
• REAL-TIME RISK: Instead of an arbitrary dollar amount, the market now uses "Intraday Margin Standards." Your ability to trade is based on your actual position, not an arbitrary $25k balance.
WHY IT MATTERS:
The bears just got poked, and now they're getting run over. For years, institutions trapped retail traders by knowing they couldn't trade out of positions without getting "flagged." Now, the "Retail Machine Gun" is firing back. Webull and Robinhood are already seeing the volume flow as the handcuffs come off.
THE TAKEAWAY:
The institutions can't pin the "software hall" (NOW, MSFT, CRM) anymore. With the handcuffs off, retail is providing the liquidity and the squeeze. We are getting our money back. 🚀🔥
After-Hours "Bears Run Over" Update:
• ServiceNow (NOW): Blasted through resistance to hit $95.00 in the after-hours session.
• The Breakout: We ended the regular session at $94.19 (+7.29%), but the "Machine Gun" volume pushed us to the $95.00 floor in the dark.
• The Volume: 20.6 million shares traded today—nearly double the normal volume—proving the shorts are being forced to cover.
