Quote from osorico:
Nevermind.
Found several explanations via web search for "cross margin".
To answer my own question, the answer is yes. (that's how I'm understanding it, so long as the "product" is eligible for cross-margining AND the clearing firm where "product" is held meets specific requirements AND participates in cross margining.) Ultimately, the purpose of cross-margin is for reduced margin requirements given multiple qualifying positions within a single and possibly across multiple account(s). Nothing specific to any particular strategy.
Ok any firms in the NY area ? preferably, Queens , LI... Forget about the train to the city every day...
