  • If you want to trade options with $5,000, follow these rules.
  • Our CEO (no, not Tom Sosnoff) has a message for the ambitious.

  2. Trading on tastytrade allows small traders to trade with industry leading commissions, offering a more cost effective approach. 
  3. Trading naked strategies, such as put calls and straddles, can be more challenging for smaller accounts due to high buying power requirements.
  4. It is important to adjust strategies and capital distribution for small account accounts, considering the limits and aiming for more risk-defined strategies, increased capital allocation per position, and reasonable return expectations.
