DON'T conceive of trading options with your margin capital. Rather,
DO conceive of margin-capital "slots" or portions of your total (fixed!) account pie, which you are going to deploy to best purposes, seeking to balance the risk exposure you of what you have "in-use" to the reward to be garnered."
It's a really basic idea, but I think I just blew the presentation of it.
It's basically, don't think of 'seeing a trade' and checking if you have the capital for it -- rather, think of yourself as holding a bunch of equal-value chips in your hand, with you placing them down on the roulette table (deploying them) in the spots you evaluate as having sufficient reward (premium in hand) for the perceived risk.
