Jim,

One straddle position is to make money on one side over and above the cost of both sides. Says VOLATILITY, no real sense of direction. The way I want to play is a little different. I want to make a small profit on the total position on any volatility swing (10-20% only), and then only sell the 'in-the-money' side and play the other side on the premise that this stock is a pendulum!!! A little different than a 'true' Straddle play, but very interesting with this 'live action' stock.
