Buying Both Sides in Options: Why Going Long Both Calls and Puts Can Cost You

Sasha the Options Coach Guide 21 days ago

Description

Buying both a call and a put sounds like a smart move — you’re covered both ways, right? Not exactly.

In this video, we’ll break down why going long on both sides of the market can often cost you more than you expect. You’ll learn:

✅ Why buying both sides (calls + puts) doubles your cost
✅ How volatility decay and time decay work against you
✅ The difference between trades that need calm vs. those that need explosions
✅ When to sell premium instead of buying volatility

Before you pay double hoping for a big move, make sure you understand what the market really needs to do for your trade to work.

📊 Watch this to avoid one of the most common beginner mistakes in options trading.
