I disagree, jimmybob. Why wouldn't one be able to trade with $30k or more in Options (big boys do it all the time)? You don't have to go into the very risky ones (like weeklies) but i don't think it's wrong to go in with big money if you know what you're doing.
Gotusucka went into the weeklies, which i then agree might be a little stupid, but hey it's his money and if it turns to his favor he'll be a happy man. And if not it's still his money :)
