No you can absolutely sell options (even uncovered)

    Not really my point that selling options is the problem. imo, allowing < 25k account holders to buy short dated options should not be allowed due to their outsized effect on stock price. And the tendency for that price rise to snap back like an overstretch rubber band. It's just creating more volatility.
