Posted by: GruntNoNeck (a.k.a Retiree) on Feb 14, 17:48 in response to ndmaster's post Has to be more than $4 to cover whichever one cashes out...

Will someone explain to me the reason behind buying both the Put and Call? {nm} GruntNoNeck Feb 12, 18:45

I do it when they IPO b/c they both usually go up. then i'll change one the other way later..... unless i forget like i did with Sonic haha {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Feb 12, 18:51

If you think the strike is fair, but not sure if it will over or underperform. {nm} ndmaster Feb 13, 14:13

If you buy and that's the wrong play your downside is limited to H$2 per share. MattW Feb 13, 17:21

So if you buy both and the spread is more than $2 either way, your are assured of a profit. {nm} GruntNoNeck Feb 14, 10:50

Has to be more than $4 to cover whichever one cashes out at 0. {nm} ndmaster Feb 14, 14:33

Even if the "winning" CA/PU doesn't reach $4, it still partially offsets the losses from the other. {nm} DTravel Feb 16, 10:45
