Hello guys, I hope you are well. I'm trading xiv and vxx with IB but margin requirements are too high (80%)... I'm looking for an online broker who can offer better leverage for short/long vol product in the US or abroad and can accept non-US residents/citizens. I found firstrade with 60% margin requirement...Ally seems great but it's only for US based investors. Do you have any other ideas? PS: I have a limited number of trades/ year focusing on vxx and xiv with a SPX put or vix call for hedge. Thank you for your help!
I will start with reg-t then PM in a few months. My understanding is that there isn't not that much difference between the two when the portfolio is concentrated?
