What is the SILVERM straddle price?
A straddle is buying (or selling) the call and the put of the same strike and expiry. The SILVERM straddle price here is the at-the-money (ATM) call premium plus the ATM put premium for the nearest expiry. The ATM strike is the one closest to the current futures price, so it moves as SILVERM moves.
