Selling Stock Limits
Ensure your sale amount is at least $1. You cannot sell stock for less than this amount.
You have the option to sell up to 98% or the entirety (100%) of your stock. If you intend to sell nearly all of your holdings, the sale must be less than 98%. Otherwise, you must sell the entire 100%.
You're limited to three (3) day trades within a rolling 5-day trading span. A day trade occurs when you both buy and sell the same stock on the same market day. If you hit your day trade cap, you're still allowed to buy and sell stock as long as the sales occur on separate days.
