Hello IG community —
I sell options using IBKR for a living.
Someone said you can sell options using IG spread betting account and therefore making it tax free.
I don't understand how it works.
Here is the TSLA options chain for an at the money put option. If I sell the 190 put option, how much premium am I getting paid for writing (selling) this put option?
Usually selling this option would pay the ask price price in premium.
So it might be $6.6/share so $660 in premium income.
I don't understand the per point or margin figures.
Can someone help me understand how this works.
Rgs,
Kev
