>probably level 1) long calls, long puts 2) covered 3) naked.

Steve, are these the levels Yamner uses? How do you determine which level you grant to different clients?

At level 2, do you define 'covered puts' as having sufficient margin in the account to cover against being assigned, or do you require that the full purchase amount in cash be deposited 'in escrow'?

And finally, does level 3 entail as well the right to short stock, or are those two separate permissions?

Thanks,
Terry
