While NT is good for a lot of things, i don't think it is any good for options.
you may want to look at TOS as a platform for options.

rleplae,

Thanks for the reply. This post was just to show that it is possible to trade options in NT. I've seen people ask about it.

You only have to create the instrument with the right mapping and the right type (it has be Stock, not Option) and the right exchange (OPRA):

@netscreamer for futures options choose Globex, I tested and it works.
