Take a look at Interactive Brokers (http://www.interactivebrokers.com). You can do any strategy you want but will have to leg in yourself. Margin requirements conform to CBOE standards. They offer equity, index, and index futures options and provide direct access to CBOE, AMEX, PHLX, PSE, and ISE. If you don't want to route manually you can use their Best Execution route that will find the best price for you. Commissions are $1.95 per contract and there's no base charge. IMO for options there's no other broker that accepts retail customers that can compete with them in terms of execution technology. Dave
