- Generally useful if you expect the underlying price to stay near a specific level, benefiting from low volatility and defined risk
- Buy one option at a lower strike, sell one option at a lower middle strike, sell one option at a higher middle strike, and buy one option at a higher strike (all calls or all puts, same expiration)
