Ken, Your take on the following IBM spreads is appreciated: Two spreads are considered simultaneously, using 1 PUT and 1 CALL to bet on both directions. Buy Feb 80, Sell Jan 80 PUTS for 1 5/16 Buy Feb 105, Sell Jan 105 CALLS for 2 If IBM fluctuates between 90 and 100 next 2 weeks, those 2 spreads should make money because the shorts expire worthless and I can sell the longs.... If IBM moves out of range, at least one spread should make money... What's wrong with this strategy, and how can you improve on it ? Thank you for your advice. Huan
