BE CAREFUL! Options are the fastest way I know to a zero account balance!!! (While futures are the fastest way I know to a NEGATIVE account balance) I CAN trade options, I infrequently do right now...

I use Schwab... they work ok for me but do not always have all the series covered - you need to call their options desk when that occurs, albeit infrequently!

Some of the options investment services are pretty good - that way you can make your account last longer before it gets to a zero balance!

As Haim will tell you - SELL them and don't buy them!

(But ya gotta know what you are doing!)
