Hello Team, asking on behalf of my friend - He is on his F1 visa and he is into stocks and investments, he does regular day trading and optional trading. He is having a full time job in accordance with his STEM master's degree. In this situation, will it be any issue for him to involve in the USA stock market as a OPT candidate? He updated me that he will file taxes for all the investments. Even, I want to explore the stock market now but want to ensure that I am aligning with all F1 OPT rules before jumping into it. Thank you for the valuable inputs in advance.
