You can enable options trading on an existing account or apply for an options-enabled account. Visit the Forms & Agreements page and download the Options Trading and Margin Agreement form. You must have an account that is approved for options trading before you can place an option order.
Since options are complex investments that may include high-risk, advanced trading strategies, it’s important to fully understand the risks associated with options before you begin trading them in your portfolio. It's equally important to closely monitor your investments and understand how much risk you're taking on at any given time. Use a Practice account to try options trading, risk-free!
