strangles
Strangles is a high-risk option trading strategy used in the finance industry where an investor buys an out-of the-money call option and an out-of-the-money put option with the same expiration date on the same underlying asset. This strategy is usually used when the investor expects a large price movement but is uncertain about the direction of the move. The investor profits if the price of the underlying asset swings markedly in either direction. In veterinary medicine, Strangles is also a highly contagious bacterial infection in horses that affects the upper respiratory tract.
