Option Strangles

Strangles are one of the many ways that option traders can take advantage of underlying movement – or lack thereof, but they are a nuanced strategy that are often over-simplified and can be somewhat misunderstood. Whether you use strangles in all of your trading, or you are just considering their potential viability, this webinar will have something that will build out your knowledge of this complex options strategy. Join us on November 11^th, at 2pm ET where Mat Cashman of OIC will cover:

Potential practical use cases for strangles in option positions
