>jb,
point well taken. It's more to do with leverage than anything else. You can get massive exposure at a fraction of the cost. - Brett

Understand that - which is, of course, why one plays options to start with. :)

I can understand some restrictions - say I want to play $25,000.00 worth of options, require me to keep $50,000.00 in my account - - whatever is required to keep things safe as I don't want to get myself into trouble any more that the brokerage does - - but to say I can't do the full arsenal of plays is tying one hand behind my back.
