Current AMDG snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $83.18, ATM IV 128.50%, IV rank 57.98%, expected move 36.84%. The butterfly on AMDG below is built from the same end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 34-day expiry.
Why this butterfly structure on AMDG specifically: AMDG IV at 128.50% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so strategy selection should anchor more to the directional thesis than to the IV regime, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 36.84% (roughly $30.64 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated AMDG expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AMDG should anchor to the underlying notional of $83.18 per share and to the trader's directional view on AMDG etf.
AMDG butterfly setup
The AMDG butterfly below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With AMDG near $83.18, the first option leg uses a $80.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AMDG chain at a 34-day expiry; the cross-strike IV skew is reflected directly in the per-leg values rather than approximated. Quantity sizing assumes one contract per option leg (or 100 AMDG shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

AMDG thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AMDG extends from approximately $52.54 on the downside to $113.82 on the upside. A AMDG long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if AMDG settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current AMDG IV rank near 57.98% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the butterfly thesis on AMDG should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Financial Services name, AMDG options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AMDG-specific events.
AMDG butterfly positions are structurally neutral / pin (limited-risk, limited-reward); the modeled P&L assumes European-style exercise at expiration and ignores early assignment, transaction costs, dividends paid before expiry on the stock leg (when present), and the bid-ask spread on the listed chain. AMDG positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move AMDG alongside the broader basket even when AMDG-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current AMDG chain quotes before placing a trade.
