Hi Rich,

<< But allowing that I cannot short in my IRA's... >>

Actually, there are no restrictions against taking short positions in IRAs except for naked short positions.

I don't trade options in IRAs, but this is possible. I do take short positions via mutual funds, in fact for the past week or so I have had a pretty sizeable short position in several retirement accounts against QQQQ, via mutual funds leveraged 200%.
