What is a day trade?

Day trading refers to buying and selling the same stock on the same day. Just buying, without selling later that same day, would not be considered a day trade.

You can trade as often as you like subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Third Party Broker around day trading — these restrictions are known as Pattern Day Trader rules. You engage in Pattern Day Trading if you make more than three day trades over a period of five business days. When trading in the Revolut app, you can see how many day trades you you can still make without breaching pattern day trading rules.

When you open your trading account with Revolut, you agree that you will not engage in Pattern Day Trading. Further details are included in the Limited Purpose Margin Account Agreement of the Third Party Broker that you agreed to when onboarding with Revolut Trading. If you engage in Pattern Day Trading, your account with the Third Party Broker will be suspended and may be closed.
