tastytrade’s Tom Sosnoff and Tony Battista normally use Strangles as their go-to strategy. Today, they take a look at how another short Vega trade performs: the Straddle. They see how the two trades compare in terms of ROC and the credit that you can collect!

This study is great stuff. Previous tastytrade studies of Straddles vs Strangles have also shown higher profits for Straddles but not higher ROC. Whereas here on the broad-market ETFs, Straddles win on ROC too. Would be interested to know if TLT performed differently to SPY and IWM.
