@Yowster Everything makes sense except this line. I get buying below the average RV (improved probabilities) and the lower the initial IV the better (less capital usage). If I have a large RV move on earnings day, is this saying that I may have had a large RV "prior" to earnings day which may have historically been attributed to a large increase in straddle price (be it from IV move and/or stock move)? RV = straddle / stock price

Whoa Awesome - Thanks @Yowster I'm adding this to my notes NOW And this answers my question of setting up the RV charts

Hi All, I'm starting to put together a plan on trying to take ownership and learn the Hedged Straddle strategy. Would it be better to get a subscription to CMLviz -or- ONE? I've seen only the first video of CMLviz (that was tweeted recently) but not the second newest video - I like the what I saw w/ the Long Call backtesting I need to watch the ONE demo video Thanks for your help. Daniel

Thanks for the article - good read

Makes sense. Thanks for reply

Is it more beneficial to be patient and wait for the stock price to be close to a strike price and buy the straddle? Or is there success buying a strangle if the stock prices are between the strike prices as long as you are below Relative Value? Thanks in advance
