Amusingly, this is part of why some folks are deeply terrified of Robinhood: with a few clicks here and there, you’ve just bought yourself 10-15x leverage.
I actually think it’s a great thing to let someone easily try out “let me try out options trading, I’ll start with $100”. The write ups about r/wallstreetbets though are sometimes heartbreaking.
So like you said, at least you know what you don’t know!
