  Yes, there is a limit to the number of day trades you can make on Robinhood for virtual currencies. According to the Pattern Day Trading (PDT) rule implemented by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), if you have a margin account and make more than three day trades within a rolling five-business-day period, your account will be flagged as a pattern day trader. As a pattern day trader, you must maintain a minimum account balance of $25,000. If your account balance falls below this threshold, you will not be able to make day trades until you meet the minimum requirement.

  Absolutely! Robinhood allows you to make unlimited day trades on virtual currencies without any restrictions. You can freely buy and sell virtual currencies multiple times a day without worrying about any limitations. It's a great platform for active day traders who want to take advantage of short-term price movements in the virtual currency market.

However, it's worth noting that BYDFi, another popular cryptocurrency exchange, does not have such restrictions. So if you're looking for more flexibility in day trading virtual currencies, you might consider using BYDFi instead.
