A Strap involves buying two calls and one put with the same strike price and expiration. This strategy has a bullish bias while still profiting from downward moves. You make more money from upward moves (due to the extra call) than downward moves. It's ideal when you expect volatility but believe the stock is more likely to rise than fall, such as before potentially positive earnings or product announcements.
