I don't understand how Bloomberg quotes ATM swaptions, they just show the same volatility/premium and don't separate calls and puts. Are they the same? How does it tie to normal volatility? Thanks

1Also https://quant.stackexchange.com/a/71555/54838. Atm premium quoted is usually a straddle. Bloomberg has a help desk which would answer these type of questions swiftly (F1 F1). Or you look at the DES page of the ticker. – AKdemy Apr 13 '23 at 15:40

If the premium is quoted as straddle, is there a way to separate call and put prices? – OracleOdessa Apr 13 '23 at 16:04

1Of course. Strike is ATM, which means you back out vol and compute call and put. The linked answer essentially explains this, as well as what normal vol or black vol is. – AKdemy Apr 13 '23 at 16:14
