Morgan, Firstly, I'd like to congratulate you and say I wish I had your problems! :) Secondly, cboe.com is an excellent source for research on option questions and you may speak to them by telephone as well. I have received good info from thewm in the past. It appears that your broker is within his rights: cboe.com If a holder of a physical delivery call option exercises and wishes to purchase the underlying interest on credit, the holder may be required to deposit margin with the holder's brokerage firm. cboe.com cboe.com Also, on a quick read it appears that your were valuing the securities in your account after the exercise to calculate your borrowing power. You should be able to determine your "maximum borrowing power" very quickly. It is explicitly stated on all my margin account statements. By any means, do not fail to give explicit instruction to your broker. Good luck, Rich PS Let me second that recommendation to speak with Steve Goldman.
