Dear Ira,
Very interesting...I get daily statements to keep abreast and it is
on no reports. I have spoken to multiple experienced brokers and
could not get even close to the quality of answers I received on this
forum.
Many thanks,
John

They do keep tabs on margin for options sales. They use a SPAN
system, I
believe that is what it is called. Since 1987 they have been careful
about
watching margins, especially on short puts.
