<DIV>Can someone refer me to a website that explains how the margin requirements
are determined for short options? I'd rather be able to get a close
approximation than wait on the computer to determine the figure for the next
day's run. It would be nice to be able to figure that little detail, BEFORE
getting the bad news...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
