Re margin
Check with the broker,as they seem to have different rules.
I often use the margin available from Dell stock to buy calls or
leaps. But they do not allow margin on the calls themselves.
Also, when starting to use a discount broker, I was not
aware they allowed margins cause I did not sign up for it,then later found I was permitted to use margin and its a lot more than 50%.
I don't know why that is, maybe because its Dell stock and they are holding the shares(Hahahah),
but I can live with it....
Good luck
