Broker Review
eOption Options
eOption Options entered the market in 2007 under Regal Securities. Its role in the U.S. retail landscape is distinctive: it provides a pared-down options venue for traders who prioritize contract pricing over research breadth. That positioning determines which customers, instruments and account structures the service is designed to support. The service is not separately listed and therefore has no standalone market capitalization.
Strengths
- Provides a pared-down options venue for traders who prioritize contract pricing over research breadth
Drawbacks
- At eOption Options, the feature set that distinguishes eOption Options can add complexity, service charges or eligibility rules that a buy-and-hold customer may never use
