Pacific Trading isn't a prop firm. Wrong Category. Just education and mentoring. Can't say if it's good or bad since I don't have any personal experiences with them
The biggest misconception about the long straddle is that you are playing price. YOU ARE PLAYING VOLATILITY. The expected move is already built into the trade so you need a bigger than expected move to make money, not just a move up or down.
Its just like the over/under bet in sports...
