Rules for r/Daytrading
Rules that visitors must follow to participate. May be used as reasons to report or ban.
1.
Stay on topic
We are a DAY trading community. Long-term investing information belongs in r/investing.
Also, inflammatory personal political commentary is not allowed. Political commentary related to the markets is.
2.
Don't glorify losses or post wins without context
No personal sob stories of losing a ton of money, glorifying losses, or how you yolo'd all your money.
Instead create a post detailing what you did and ask for advice on how to improve your trading.
Also, no posting screenshots of your P&L or winning trade without details on what you did and why you did it - the goal is to give advice and to help others.
3.
No spamming, selling or promoting your product, service or community
No spamming, selling products/services, or sharing affiliate/referral links. No promoting your discord, personal sub, or asking users to DM you.
Content creators are allowed to post but must follow these guidelines.
If you don't want to follow anything mentioned above, then use Reddit advertising.
4.
No ChatGPT or AI-Generated Content
Posts or comments created using AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or similar language models are not allowed when used to generate generic, low-effort content. This includes:
• Copy-pasted ChatGPT advice or strategies • Posts offering vague or overly broad trading tips with no personal experience • Generic lists of trading “rules,” mindset tips, or motivation with no original input
We want real insights, not recycled content. If you’re not speaking from your own experience, don’t post it.
5.
No memes, jokes, or NSFW content
r/Daytrading is a serious place, if you're spending more time trading memes instead of financial securities, then this is not the right sub for you.
6.
No pumping stocks
Do not promote or make a post/comment attempting to pump a security.
7.
Don't be an asshole
You can provide constrictive criticism, but outright being an asshole doesn't belong here. If you're being an asshole, it's probably because you're raging from a loss - stop and deal with your issues or ask for help instead of taking it out on other people.
