RE: Trading IRA accounts?



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Most IRA accounts allow for stock trading.  The restrictions are no
trading on margin and only covered call writing.  I currently use
Charles Schwab which allows me to even day trade as long as I do not
commit more than I have in my IRA account.  The only firm that I know
that allows option trading (PUT and CALL buying) is Brown & Co.  They
have a $10,000 minimum for opening an account.  

Hope that helps.
