Can anyone comment on some good discount option brokers. Right now I'm strickly selling volatility on a naked basis via Etrade Canada, but am looking to do spreads very soon. I'm looking for cheap and quick executions on all option types (if indeed these two objectives can coexist). To do it through Etrade, I'd have to leg into each side which is a pain in the ass in stable markets and risky in volatile markets. Also, does anyone know of a decent broker that can also do futures? I am also looking to day trade excess options margin in various futures contracts. Your comments and experiences would be appreciated. Thanks, L. Also on the ROP question, every firm must have a Designated Registered Option Principal and a ADROP (alternate) who are responsible for option trading and the approval of new option accounts.
