Options Disabled in Paper Trading Account

[wt42]

I’d like to test options trading but I can’t seem to enable it in my paper trading account. There is no dropdown option to enable Options in paper trading. I’ve also been approved for options in my live account.

There is also another topic related to this with no response. How do I enable options trading in my Demo Account?

This is critical to testing APIs before using a live account with real money.

I am having this same issue. @wt42, did you ever get it working?

Have the same issue. Is options trading just completely unavailable for paper accounts? I am watching a tutorial online about setting it up for a paper account so evidently at one point this functionality existed.

I never figured it out. Must be a bug they are unaware of or dont think is important to fix
