Option Accounts. In order for you to engage in option transactions, you must complete and submit an “Options Account Application” and acknowledge that you understand the risks associated with trading in options. You should receive, read and fully understand the terms, conditions and risks of options trading as set forth in the option disclosure booklet issued by the Options Clearing Corporation, and you must provide TBI with pertinent financial information and a statement of your investment objectives.
