The reason why your cash is not automatically parked in Tiger Vault when you have open put option positions is to ensure that you have sufficient funds available to cover any potential losses or margin requirements that may arise from your options trading activities. By keeping the cash separate, it serves as a buffer to protect your positions and maintain the required margin.
While it may seem that your money is not being utilized effectively by not being parked in Tiger Vault, it is important to consider the potential risks involved in options trading. Options can be highly leveraged and volatile, and there is a possibility of incurring losses that may require additional funds to be allocated.
By keeping the cash separate, it allows you to have better visibility and control over your available funds for trading purposes. However, you can always manually transfer excess cash from your account to Tiger Vault to earn interest if you are comfortable with the potential risks and have sufficient funds to cover your options positions.
Please note that the decision to park funds in Tiger Vault or allocate them to options trading should be based on your risk tolerance and investment strategy. It is always recommended to consult with a financial advisor or consider your own risk appetite before making any investment decisions.
