You can (and people frequently do) trade options on RH, which are inherently leveraged. But RH is just a broker - it’s not on the other side of the trades itself.

ah okay. I wasn't sure what services RH offered and didn't. The amount of meme-ery around them had me wondering if they had decided to go beyond being a broker to try and extract more money from users like they do by selling access to their order flow.
