### <summary>
|
|
### This algorithm demonstrate how to use Option Strategies (e.g. OptionStrategies.STRADDLE) helper classes to batch send orders for common strategies.
|
|
### It also shows how you can prefilter contracts easily based on strikes and expirations, and how you can inspect the
|
|
### option chain to pick a specific option contract to trade.
