CME

CME rejects strategies citing a reverse buy/sell indicator.

For example, instead of buying a short straddle you should sell a long straddle, as these two strategies are equivalent: Buy  UDS(-P.CLEK55050-C.CLEK55050) = Sell UDS UDS(P.CLEK55050+C.CLEK55050) =>(-P.CLEK55050-C.CLEK55050)= -(P.CLEK55050+C.CLEK55050).

Use these strategies instead:
