F falcon Nov 1, 2011 #3 covered straddle comes to mind but with the extra call, thought maybe somekind of ratio.
S spindr0 Nov 2, 2011 #4 It has the structure of an unbalanced strangle but you can call it anything that you want It would be balanced with about 600 shares. Any particular reason that you chose 100 versus balanced or versus 1,000 shares?
