Wish I could help, Monty but I stopped trading, buying, holding, smelling or sitting next to...OTC:BB stocks. As yet I have no interest in options but think that I need to learn. I will begin shorting when I feel I can do this effectively.....so no help there either........ If you start the paperwork now...you will be ready to go by the 1st of November......this gives you time to inquire directly...best to do this by phone. I think it is almost impossible to not trade at least 25 times a month..you may want to start with the basic level...this is what I have and will continue to use for some time....very simple. I honestly can't imagine being in the market without something like X. It actually teaches you what to do by watching the action on the screen by the other buyers and sellers....interesting. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Shoot

Monty, Check out executioner.com for the answers, but I'll tell you what I know. 1) I don't believe you can trade OTCBB stocks through the X. Call them up and ask. 2) You can only trade options by calling the option trading desk at the X. I haven't done this, and I trade options through ETrade. 3) Yes, you can short stocks through the software. 4) No idea on this one. Give them a call. They do not have any trading offices that I know of. Check out attain.com as they do have established trading offices around the country, and will let you come in to see how things work. They use the same software to trade, RealTickIII. Regards, Steven
