Option trading?

I think the more services Trading 212 offers, the better. Options trading is not a niche thing, itā€™s rather popular in America but absent in the UK. Trading 212 could mop up the UK market if they offered it.

Frankly, I donā€™t see what the argument against it is. If you donā€™t like options trading, then donā€™t do it, but donā€™t argue against it just because you donā€™t like it

Ok. either I donā€™t know what incite means or thanking for it is not necessarily a positive thing.

Iā€™m decades away from my teenage years but I sincerely hope there is someone even younger than that inside me.

On another note I abhor profanity on any level especially behind a keyboard.

My only argument was against the notion that ā€œoptions are not risky because they are hedging toolsā€ and on a different post not even as a reply to you I recommended that guys videos for basics.

and you countered the option argument by saying ā€œthis guy has a book on TA on penny stocksā€ :man_shrugging:

But this is getting way too side tracked, so Iā€™m gonna stop posting. People now think Iā€™m against options, while I have over Ā£200k uncovered option volume just this FY on tasty.

Good luck

Hey, do you have plans to add the options trading with in the next year, or sooner?
It would be a very nice feature.

Canā€™t vote , but I really want Option trade as well , itā€™s much better option to make passive income

Would never use CFDs, but I buy and write options all the time in my IBKR account. The IBKR interface is awful and I can see T212 doing a much better job. So would really appreciate options in T212.

Would be happy to pay for it too.

Maybe the voting is closed? @kali is that the case on the most requested features poll?

Or is it like ā€œStop the Countā€? :smiley:

@Sagrias yes, options provide a decent way for investors with a sizeable capital/portfolio to generate passive income. So CCs and and CSPs would highly appreciated on T212.
Iā€™m making a couple of grand a month writing naked and covered options on IBKR, I pay fees which ramp up with more volume, so free options trading would be nice also.

its not a timed poll, but you have to be greater than trust level 0 to vote (basically you cannot create a new account and vote)

Just the ability to collect a premium for buying a company at a price I already want to own it at would be fantastic!

Is there be option trading next year?

WOW! @ayurb07 I did the sameā€¦ but I hate their fees about every actionā€¦ so I would love to have options here in t212

I would love to see options on T212, until then I am using tastyworks but their app sucks.

shouldnā€™t be too big of a deal since Interactive Brokers already provides options right?

just like extended hours for INVEST and ISA which they seem to put off as long as they canā€¦
