Trade The Pool: Overnight & weekend holding

ConditionalWarningHidden ruleVerifiedUpdated Jun 5, 2026

Day-trade accounts: no overnight holds — positions auto-liquidate near the end of the session (≈3:50 PM ET). Swing accounts: overnight, weekend and extended-hours holding allowed, but to hold overnight the stock must average ≥500,000 shares/day over the prior 14 days. You must also close before a stock splits (if announced ≥1 day prior) and before it trades ex-dividend.

The gotcha

The 500,000-shares/day liquidity gate silently blocks low-float overnight plays on swing accounts.

What happens if you break it

WarningWarning

This is a soft breach: the firm typically warns or flags the account rather than voiding it, but repeated or flagrant breaches escalate to termination.
