# Short Straddle
|
||||
|
||||
**Section**: 2.25 | **Asset Class**: Options | **Type**: Income
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
The short straddle is a sideways strategy consisting of a short position in an ATM call option and a short position in an ATM put option with the same strike K. This is a net credit trade. The trader's outlook is neutral. This is an income strategy that profits if the stock remains near K until expiry.
|
||||
|
||||
## Construction
|
||||
- Sell 1 ATM call option at strike K
|
||||
- Sell 1 ATM put option at strike K, same expiry
|
||||
|
||||
Net credit: C
|
||||
|
||||
## Payoff Profile
|
||||
f_T = -(S_T - K)+ - (K - S_T)+ + C
|
||||
|
||||
- Upper breakeven: S*_up = K + C
|
||||
- Lower breakeven: S*_down = K - C
|
||||
- Max profit: P_max = C (if S_T = K at expiry; both options expire worthless)
|
||||
- Max loss: L_max = unlimited (stock can move far in either direction)
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Conditions / Signals
|
||||
- Neutral view; expects stock to remain very close to K through expiry
|
||||
- High implied volatility environment makes the collected credit larger
|
||||
- Ideal when volatility is expected to contract (sell elevated IV, profit from IV crush)
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
Unlimited risk in both directions. The position is short vega and long theta. A sharp move in either direction can result in catastrophic losses. Active management (delta hedging or stop-losses) is essential.
