  1. It depends on the brokerage, but generally, yes. You can buy and sell several times a day, too. Day trading is not prohibited. It just puts you into a different category of margin requirements.


  2. usually

  3. No one can give you a definite number of trades you can do without knowing what stocks you are buying, the price of the stock, and you balances in your accounts, both cash and margin.

    If you're not buying and selling the same security you will not have any problems

    As long as you trade within in you buying power limits, or meet any and all margin calls, you should be able to trade as often as you want,

    You can always buy twice you SMA, you can trade your buying power(which is twice you SMA).
