   How does a trader buy a straddle call and a put?

   • A trader buys the call and the put of the same strike, same expiration and same underlying product. For example, if you want to straddle E-mini Sep 2425, you would buy the E-mini 2425 Sep call and buy the 2425 Sep put. The cost of the straddle in this example would be 103.75.

   Should traders buy a straddle?

   • Traders will buy the straddle if they expect the market to start moving but are not sure which way. In our example, the E-mini futures contract would be at 2420 and we expect the future to move up or down but we are not quite sure which way. The profit potential is much larger than the cost of the straddle in either direction.
