Nemer,

Aren't Strangles used primarily for options?

I would think that an Option on Futures using a straddle and/or strangle would atleast get you into a fast break away market in either direction. One would instantly be in the money.

After the trend has broken...break away is established then sell the odd out Option and buy the spoo contract....you get the best of both worlds.

The only down side is that the market must move substantially to make it more then a break even.
