you aren't writing covered calls right? you should just "buy to open" no of contracts, and limit or market. the example you gave, 100 calls at 3 bucks, is a huge amount of money. each 3 dollar contract is 300 dollars. be careful.

i use etrade, it's no different than other houses. call the margin clerk and sort it out. maybe you haven't signed the margin and option agreements?

oh, and by the way...kiss the rest of your dough goodbye.
