I have done hedging with Greenline, however I just buy the bond and do a short and treat it as a totally unrelated position. Ill have to talk to them if they are willing to be more flexable although normally I wouldn't put a 100K position on 1 bond. I've done similar with Royal(action dir)+BOM(Investorline).... The full service brokers will look at smaller hedges(40K or even less)but the commisions don't make it worth my whilee (Im happy to do a small trade based on a fluctuation of 200 shares @$2= 400$-commission of approx $100=profit 300) with a full service broker comm=300$ and Im left with 100, no good.
