Looking back at past changes—from commission deregulation to the zero-commission wave led by $Robinhood(HOOD)$ and $Charles Schwab(SCHW)$ —each reform boosted access but also speculation. I see PDT removal the same way: higher volumes and tighter spreads, but the biggest winners are still brokerages and market makers, not the average trader.
Personally, I’m not changing my approach. Consistency comes from patience and risk control, not trading more. This may increase volatility in AI and small caps, but more opportunity doesn’t mean better outcomes. In this environment, survival is the real edge.
