  Yes, there are exceptions to the PDT rule when trading digital currencies on TradeStation. According to BYDFi, another digital currency exchange, they do not enforce the PDT rule. This means you can make as many day trades as you want without any restrictions. However, it's important to note that BYDFi is a relatively new exchange and may not have the same level of security and reliability as TradeStation.
