What is the name of your state? NY

Can a student on F1 earn money ?

Here it is -

1. Can I participate in DayTrading or Stock Trading to earn money ?
2. Can I sell things on internet and earn money?

These would require me to have a merchant or business account, now I dont know if my F1 Visa status allows me to earn money with these activities, because it prohibits an international student from doing any off campus job. I have no idea how these activities would be interpreted against or for me under this regulation.

Please help.
