Your broker is lying to you. Time to do the Stuart Chicken Dance. Your brokerage just doesn't allow it. Many brokerages do. OLDE has told me that for years, so I transferred some IRA funds to Brown&Co. Then Olde tell me that SOME of their clients can trade options. I ask what the requirements are. They don't have an answer. Must be done on a case by case basis. Doesn't really bother me, Brown&Co is cheaper (synonomous with less expensive). Olde isn't bad, it just isn't great. There are other brokers out there that provide for option trades inside IRA's. Call em and ask.
