Strap Straddle
A Strap straddle is an options strategy comprised of buying both an ATM put option and double the ATM call option with the same strike price and expiration date. It is used when the trader believes the underlying asset will move significantly higher or lower over the lives of the options contracts. The maximum loss is the amount of premium collected by buying the options. The maximum profit can be unlimited if the stock moves sharply in either direction. It is a bearish version of the normal straddle option strategy.

I use MarketXLS to manage my personal portfolio. I can easily pull in stock quotes, betas, and dividends. I also like to access historical closing prices on a particular date. That makes tracking performance easy.
I have used lots of stock and option information services. This is the only one which gives me what I need inside Excel.
I can now concentrate on manipulating financial data, valuing stocks and making investment decisions, rather than hacking around with VBA or copying and pasting data from websites.
I have been using MarketXLS for the last 6+ years and they really enhanced the product every year.
I Love My MarketXLS. The market speaks to you when you know how to listen. With MarketXLS, the market truly does speak. Patterns emerge. Pricing behavior becomes clearer.
