My point is that risky financial plays are still possible even in the SEC regulated market. Maybe I misunderstood the parent poster though.

As per SEC requirements, brokers are required to quiz you to makes sure you understand the risks involved in trading derivatives.

Furthermore, selling naked options (Level 3 access) without hedging or verticals requires certain capital and margin requirements, I do not think it is easily possible to get 50x levered in options alone - you'd probably need /ES futures for that.
