### <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.
