Ugg. My old broker cut me off from shorting volatility. Made a TD Ameritrade account account, but they won’t let me short either. They said I have to have $100k to join the HTB. Do you all think etrade or IB is worth trying. I can buy UVXY puts right now, but i have no idea how effective it is compared to shorting.

Since Tvix came out the worst spike it has had was about 600% from July to October of 2011. My question is how bad could it get in a crash that is worse? Has anyone ever done some sort pf estimation of how much tvix or uvxy would have gone up if these instruments existed before and during the 2008 crash?

My current broker allows me to short UVXY, but does not allow me to short TVIX. Which broker do you all use? I was thinking TD Ameritrade or Interactive Brokers would be good.
