I don't know the answer... I may call the broker tomorrow and ask
him. Personally I don't think it's allowed, 'cause in theory you could
go over the limit to cover the short.... again, a book keeping issue
with the broker.
I was allowed to write a put, up to the amount of cash to cover the
assignment. But I think it is no longer allowed, either by regulation,
or by the broker not being able to handle the book keeping.
