    For that you need Portfolio Margin, that requires at least $110K in your account + their approval which you will probably get unless you're a delinquent. Then essentially you get 6:1 leverage

    You can have more than 2:1 leverage with Reg T Margin but only for intraday trades, has to be 2:1 for overnight positions.
