How do I execute a combination of multiple options at the same time (e.g. put spread, iron condor, or straddle)?

Hi @Patrick

Thanks for reaching out. 

We do not have the option on the platform. You would have to call in for a dealer to offer you quotes and execute all trades at the same time. 

Thanks,

I'm not sure if the system has this capability eg when I phone to roll a trade - buy my put back and sell again at a further exp date the dealer had to do this as 2 manual trades.

If you are trading the online securities, you could manually put the trades you mentioned above pretty quickly yourself (mostly without much if any slippage?)
