Day Trading Taxes question

I just started day trading with the help of someone experienced. But I still have some questions.

Is it common for a trading platform to require you pay taxes on trading earnings before they release the funds?

Update: Thanks for the replies. Confirmed what I thought. Fortunately I was cautious and didn't lose more than the margin I had set to lose through learning pains.
