ed, i don't understand their reasoning. I read mucho's post out loud to the spartan trader and he double checked--no way.

Irrigating the fields--????

>> a brokerage who deals with the "more sophisticated" investor.<<

It would be nice to hear about a good broker for a change. Are there any you would recommend?

Thanks

i spoke to dreyfus and they told me that you would need to deposit $50,000 in cash to exercise an option (assuming it is the sole asset in your account) with a strike price of $100,000 regardless of the value of the underlying. this is consistent with what jill posted. does your broker waive this rule?

regards
