Hedge Fund Accounts
Corporate accounts provide access to tastytrade’s suite of trading tools and products, offering a streamlined experience that allows the margin efficiency of institutional accounts with the simplicity of a retail trading platform. All accounts include API access for automated trading and access to a dedicated support team.
Most hedge funds use large institutional brokers with extensive service offerings—portfolio tools, dashboards, FIX connectivity, multi-asset execution. For derivatives-focused funds, this creates platform bloat and workflow friction.
tastytrade is a derivatives-first platform built for speed and execution efficiency. If your fund's primary activity is options trading, our tools may better match your workflow.
Streamlined Platform
tastytrade offers a clean interface designed by options traders, for options traders, with speed in mind—no unnecessary features slowing you down.

- Aggregate or symbol-specific risk views
- Stress test positions across multiple moves and increments
- Isolate gross or net exposure with hedges
- Adjust implied volatility in percentage or points
- Overlay hypothetical orders into live analysis
- Evaluate risk at specific expiration dates
Model outcomes quickly without navigating institutional analytics bloat.
Portfolio Margin
PM is a risk-based methodology that allows investors to have improved transparency and alignment between margin requirements and the overall theoretical risk of the portfolio. As a result, you may get additional leverage in your account, up to 6.7:1 leverage compared to 2:1 leverage with a margin account. Learn more about portfolio margin.
Get Started
You can get started by applying through our entity account application. You'll want to select the entity account type that aligns with your fund’s structure. Additional documentation will be required after submission. A representative of our accounts team will contact you to complete the process. If you have any questions, please email accounts@tastytrade.com.

Portfolio Margin is not suitable for all investors. Trading in a Portfolio Margin account can substantially increase leverage. However, such increased leverage can significantly increase the risk of loss. Please read the Portfolio Margining Risk Disclosure Statement found at tastytrade.com/disclosures/ before determining if trading in a Portfolio Margin account is appropriate for you.
