# Long Call Synthetic Straddle
|
||||
|
||||
**Section**: 2.28 | **Asset Class**: Options | **Type**: Volatility
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
The long call synthetic straddle (the same as a long straddle with the put replaced by a synthetic put) amounts to shorting stock and buying two ATM (or nearest ITM) call options with strike K. The trader's outlook is neutral. This is a capital gain strategy. We assume S0 >= K and D > S0 - K.
|
||||
|
||||
## Construction
|
||||
- Short 1 share of stock at S0
|
||||
- Buy 2 ATM call options at strike K, same expiry
|
||||
|
||||
Net debit: D (assumed D > S0 - K)
|
||||
|
||||
## Payoff Profile
|
||||
f_T = S0 - S_T + 2 × (S_T - K)+ - D
|
||||
|
||||
- Upper breakeven: S*_up = 2K - S0 + D
|
||||
- Lower breakeven: S*_down = S0 - D
|
||||
- Max profit: P_max = unlimited (large move in either direction)
|
||||
- Max loss: L_max = D - (S0 - K) (at S_T = K; intrinsic offset reduces loss)
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Conditions / Signals
|
||||
- Neutral view; expects a large move in either direction
|
||||
- S0 >= K (stock at or above the call strike)
|
||||
- D > S0 - K prevents arbitrage
|
||||
- Useful when puts are expensive relative to calls (use calls to synthesize the straddle)
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
The short stock position combined with two long calls replicates a straddle by put-call parity. The maximum loss is reduced by the amount S0 - K (intrinsic value of the synthetic put component).
