No, I was told in the very beginning that AMP doesn't support spread trading, so I did never try. But you still can trade any instruments on leg-in/leg-out basis with them (sorta synthetic spreads). Downside of that is what AMP will apply full margin for both legs in this case. That sounds odd b/c once you sold let's say CLJ and bought CLK, exchange should automatically recognize calendar spread and reduce margin to what is required for that CS.
Thus, I do trade spreads with another brokerage and trade only outright contracts with AMP.
But AMP is moving ahead and they have already made good progress, so there is a good chance they could offer spread trading one day.
