    I just filled out the application form saying citizenship and place of birth was Slovakia and had no problems.

    The only thing is you have to print out the form, sign it and mail it all the way to US.

    Again, this thread is disturbing on so many levels. If you're not able to figure out how to download one of lets say a dozen free software programs that will give you a position analyzer, or open an account at TD Ameritrade that allows international accounts then why are you trading options?

    I'm not being a smart ass, I'm perhaps giving you a kick in the ass in a positive way. :) It's just a wake up call. Option trading is for the mathematically inclined, and for the independent thinkers. There is a lot you'll have to manage on your own to be successful.

    If you can't manage an account application, or a 2 minute Google search for trading software, I'm quite sure you won't be able to manage your gamma position on those options you somehow opened at a brokerage house so ghetto they allowed you to open them but don't have any trading software for you to see the positions...
