To me, this is a very bad approximation.? What do you think? Do you have a better way?
Like I said before: split the custom combo into "regular" combos which have offsetting margin legs.??
I didn't mean splitting into calls and puts.? Or else I would have said that.? We're in a technical forum and I'm a technical person. You're best off assuming I'm being very literal.??
So, go back and get some education on how margin works for options. puts/calls is not the split you want for this case, and that should be very obvious to anyone who's taken the most basic of ~2 day options courses.
