A Long Straddle and Short Straddle are popular options trading strategies used to speculate on the volatility of an underlying asset. A straddle involves simultaneously buying (or selling) a call option and a put option with the same strike price and expiration date.
Both strategies are zero-cost when opened (excluding commissions and fees) and are profitable under different market conditions.
• Volatility Play: Both Long and Short Straddle strategies are designed to capitalize on market volatility.
• Unlimited Profit Potential: A Long Straddle offers unlimited upside if the asset price moves significantly in either direction.
• Unlimited Risk: A Short Straddle exposes the trader to unlimited potential losses if the asset price moves sharply in either direction.
• Strike Price Focus: The profitability of both strategies depends on the strike price relative to the underlying asset's price at expiration.
• Time Decay Sensitivity: Both strategies are sensitive to time decay, as options lose value as expiration approaches.
• Visualization Tools: The app provides payoff diagrams to help traders understand potential outcomes and manage risk effectively.

What is the difference between a Long Straddle and a Short Straddle?
A Long Straddle is a bullish/bearish strategy that profits when the underlying asset moves significantly in either direction. A Short Straddle is a neutral strategy that profits when the asset price remains stable or moves within a narrow range.
Which strategy is better for high volatility?
The Long Straddle is better suited for high volatility because it benefits from significant price movements. The Short Straddle, on the other hand, performs poorly in high-volatility environments.
How do I interpret the payoff visualization?
The payoff visualization shows the profit or loss of the strategy at expiration, plotted against the price of the underlying asset. For a Long Straddle, the graph will show profit zones on both sides of the strike price. For a Short Straddle, the graph will show a profit zone between the breakeven points and a loss zone outside of them.
