Day traders who didn't lose money on their trades are taxed at normal income tax rates, or the same rate that a short-term capital gain would be taxed. One thing to note is that day traders are sometimes subjected to the wash-sale rule because they trade the same stock over and over again. This rule means that a trader must delay their tax loss on a losing trade if they bought the same stock again within 30 days of the sale.
