### Comment:
I'm at a point in life where I can take quite a bit of risk. I've learned to manage my day trades better over time as well as opening spreads to protect profits, so I'd say the PDT mainly isn't that big of a deal, but it would be a bit more convenient.  
  
 And yeah, I was aware of the cash account, but not digging the idea of waiting for settlement as I like having a lot of positions.

Cool! One thing to remember is that don’t regret if you lose it all.  
  
 If you are not sure, then take the 5k out(so atleast you made 1.5k) and start trading with the other 5. Current trend is bearish. Don’t try to time the bottom and let the trend speak for you.. there will be nasty intraday bounces so you gotta be patient or quick to scratch and claw profit as you see it.. then again you made 10k from 3.5k. You got this!
