Here are the broad steps involved in becoming an options trader.

1. Create a CFD trading account

2. Pass our options suitability test

3. Make your first trade

You don’t need a separate account. If you’re a retail trader, you’ll need to pass our suitability test before you can trade options using your existing CFD account.

As a CMC Markets customer, you won’t pay any commission, holding fees or financing fees when you trade options with us. The only costs you’ll pay are the spread and, if the instrument you’re trading is priced in a currency other than your home currency, a currency conversion fee. We charge 0.5% of the realized profit or loss to convert foreign currencies into your home currency.

There is no minimum amount needed to open an options account with us.

Our website has a range of learn articles, guides, and resources to help you navigate your options trading journey. You may find the following resources useful:

• What is options trading?

• Trading options with CMC

• Options volatility

Option trades on our platform are cash-settled. Trading options with us doesn’t entitle you to any rights in relation to the underlying asset, and exercise of an option doesn’t result in the acquisition or disposal of an instrument. Instead, an option contract which has reached its expiry date will be closed and cash settled, with an amount payable to you (if the market moved in your favour) or by you (if the market moved against you).

Currently, you can trade options on top stock indices, including the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, FTSE 100, and more. We plan to add more underlying assets later.
