Company Profile

Filling the Deep Discount Niche:  

A different trading model… for those who know what they want to trade.

In 2007, eOption was created with a clear purpose in mind – low-cost trades combined with fast, efficient execution. Our ultra low commission rates provide a unique value that will immediately enhance a successful trade with a higher investment yield – that is our focus. We provide an environment for investors interested in a reliable trading platform, fast execution and friendly service, without the high commission cost your trade needs to cover.

eOption customers know what they want to trade. Whether it is the result of researching the fundamentals of an individual company, tracking charts and patterns, or simply following a recommendation, our clients know what trade they want to place. eOption offers them an efficient trading environment to execute trades with a deep discount on the commission. Our business model is not based on charging high commissions for tools and features clients do not use, or may already have. We appreciate that many of our clients have other accounts, just as most of us like to shop at a few favorite stores, not just one. Our value proposition is based on filling the deep discount niche, offering clients the ability to realize immediate significant savings with our no frills approach to trading. 

As the name eOption implies, option trading is our expertise. Whether you are interested in selling covered calls or placing four-leg iron condors, our trading platform is tailored to meet your needs. For those interested in a more sophisticated offering, we support multiple direct access platforms for active traders.

While options are certainly our focus, we also offer a full range of investment products and services to a broad range of customers worldwide. We leverage our strengths with the experience and longstanding history of our parent company, Regal Securities, Inc., to provide you with an efficient and affordable experience. Our commitment is to smart investors who know what they want to trade.

Account Protection

eOption is a division of Regal Securities, Inc., a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), and as a member of the SIPC, funds are available to meet customer claims up to a ceiling of $500,000, including a maximum of $250,000 for cash claims. For additional information regarding SIPC coverage, including a brochure, please contact SIPC at (202) 371-8300 or visit www.sipc.org.

Our clearing firm has purchased an additional insurance policy through a group of London Underwriters (with Lloyd's of London Syndicates as the Lead Underwriter) to supplement SIPC protection. This additional insurance policy becomes available to customers in the event that SIPC limits are exhausted and provides protection for securities and cash up to an aggregate of $600 million. This is provided to pay amounts in addition to those returned in a SIPC liquidation. This additional insurance policy is limited to a combined return to any customer from a Trustee, SIPC and London Underwriters of $150 million, including cash of up to $2.15 million. Similar to SIPC protection, this additional insurance does not protect against a loss in the market value of securities.
