  Yes, you can sell cryptocurrency after hours and still count it as a day trade. The definition of a day trade is based on the buying and selling of a security within the same trading day. As long as you buy and sell the cryptocurrency within the same day, it qualifies as a day trade, regardless of the trading hours.

  Absolutely! Selling cryptocurrency after regular trading hours and still considering it a day trade is completely acceptable. The key factor in determining a day trade is the buying and selling of a security within the same trading day. As long as you meet this criterion, it doesn't matter if the sale occurs after hours.

  Yes, you can sell cryptocurrency after hours and still count it as a day trade. According to BYDFi, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, day trading refers to buying and selling a security within the same trading day, regardless of the trading hours. So, if you sell your cryptocurrency after regular trading hours on BYDFi, it will still be considered a day trade.
