Most retail trading brokers are expected to introduce a new, higher minimum account balance requirement to qualify for 4x leverage, even if the general PDT rule is lowered to $2,000.
"I suspect that most retail trading brokers would probably choose a line there because if you have a trade like this that so quickly goes against you, you would be in the red before the broker could even step in and and intervene. ... they will say that in order to have four times leverage, you need a a new, you know, minimum."
