NO.

The broker is not wrong you are wrong.

Your argument is that TD ameritrade is wrong and not you.  Think about it.

Read what I said again.

 

This is not a short sale.  I didn't sell anything short

I sold an option as a covered call.  It has nothing to do with a short sale.

I sold the option and I bought it back.  That is obvious.  The sale was first and the buy back was after.

Read what I wrote again.  TTAx   is not able to handle a SALE of an covered call option.  That is not a short sale.

 

So tell me how you imagine a  covered call should be sold and then closed.  

Selling a covered call simply means that I have the shares to cover the sale.  THat is not a short sale,

TTAX does not handle a buy back of that same option.  There is no short sale.  I did not sell anything short.

 

Please escalate this to someone else
