message: The short straddle page should be incorporated into this one and removed from the Options template. To explain a short straddle, it is best to also explain a long straddle.  Remove the short & long straddle pages, and point to the straddle page.
The discussion below shows that there is a poker straddle.  To complicate things more, the NEW "straddle page" should be named "Stock Option Straddle", and create a straddle page that directs users to stock option straddle vs poker straddle?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by WebSurfinMurf (talk • contribs) 12:10, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Darn.  I was hoping to find a deeper explanation of the poker term "straddle" here.  Maybe Straddle (poker) should be created? I found an OK explanation at rec.games.poker FAQ Travisl 00:42, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

message: The diagrams show the profit not the payoff, which is the net time T cash flow, and should be labeled as such. I tried changing it but the captions are hard-coded in the images. Anyway. Heads up.

message: The article had a semi-promotional how-to tone, distracting formatting, and numerous other problems which I made a modest start on cleaning up. There is a lot of inside jargon with poor or no explanation, and a complete lack of inline citations. Therefore, I have changed the article rating to Start class. Other editors are invited to help clean up and upgrade this article. Reify-tech (talk) 01:47, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

message: I know this is a bigger question about derivatives in general but the myriads of ways how speculators can destroy the stock market and, consequently, cause a crisis, is considered to be dangerous in many countries. So it is interesting to know which non-productive techniques like this are allowed or banned in which countries. 93.185.27.247 (talk) 10:52, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
