Unless the rules have changed, the only legal IRA use of options is the writing of covered calls. Any other use is treated as use of leverage, not allowed by the IRS.

You risk invalidating the IRA, with all the tax and penalty issues that entails.

Off topic Sundar,

Does Ameritrade allow you to write naked puts ? If yes, do you know their margin/equity requirements ?

TIA
