  Good faith violations occur when you buy securities with unsettled funds and then sell those securities before the funds have settled. In the context of trading cryptocurrencies, it refers to buying cryptocurrencies with unsettled funds and then selling them before the funds have settled. To avoid good faith violations, you should ensure that you have sufficient settled funds in your account before making any trades. This means waiting for your previous trades to settle and the funds to become available for trading. It's important to keep track of your settled and unsettled funds to avoid unintentional violations.

  Good faith violations can be a headache for traders, but they can be easily avoided with some careful planning. One way to avoid them is to make sure you have enough settled funds in your account before making any trades. This means waiting for your previous trades to settle and the funds to become available for trading. Another way to avoid good faith violations is to use a cash account instead of a margin account. With a cash account, you can only trade with settled funds, eliminating the risk of violating the good faith rule. So, take your time, plan your trades, and make sure you have enough settled funds to avoid any violations.
