LONG STRADDLE
An options trading strategy where the trader will purchase both a long call and a long put for the particular asset with the same expiration date and strike price. Usually, the strike price will be at the amount or close to the present market price of the underlying asset. An investor can take a long straddle when he or she feels the market for that asset will be volatile and will go through tremendous price changes, but is not sure of which way the changes will go.
