Hi all,

I would like to start trading US options. Just want to know what sifus here use for the broker? I'm already using Interactive Brokers for direct stocks. Wondering if there is a preferred broker for US options traders in Malaysia?

TIA!

Thanks.
Is your IBKR account specific for Options trading? Is there a minimum cash amount that is required to begin trading in the account?

Open CIMB fastsaver account. Then transfer CIMB MY to CIMB SG cheaply, at least from what I heard from friends so far.
