Une stratégie qui permet de profiter d'une telle prévision est l'achat d'un «straddle» qui consiste en fait à acheter un call et un put (de même prix et date d'exercice pour simplifier) sur le même sous-jacent qui sont couverts dynamiquement («delta hedge») pour ne profiter que de la hausse de la volatilité. 3, record 3, French, - couverture%20en%20delta%20neutre
