What's it called when you buy a put and call with different expirations?

What's it called when you buy a put and call with different expirations?

-Calendar spreads??

 

I know the answer to this riddle!

2-Legs

 

Fat finger

 

More precisely, Strangle/Straddle Calendar spread

 

A synthetic stock without the same strikes is referred to as a Split-Strike Synthetic Stock.

I guess if you are determined for a name we can just go with the term Split-DTE Strangle.

 

The straddle calendar should be built from 2 straddle with different expiry, I don't know if this has a name, split dte sound appropriate

 

Thankyou- I lost this years ago -it is still thought provoking- how many have you tried?

 

No problem, it is still one of the best 'strategy summaries'.
