A long call butterfly buys one lower-strike call, sells two ATM calls, and buys one higher-strike call, paying a small net debit for a defined-risk position that maxes out if the underlying pins the middle strike at expiration.
ASSX snapshot
As of November 13, 2026, spot at $12.07, ATM IV 183.20%, expected move 52.52%. The butterfly on ASSX below is built from the November 13, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 35-day expiry.
Why this butterfly structure on ASSX specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for ASSX is inferred from ATM IV at 183.20% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 52.52% (roughly $6.34 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated ASSX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ASSX should anchor to the underlying notional of $12.07 per share and to the trader's directional view on ASSX etf.
ASSX butterfly setup
The ASSX butterfly below is built from the November 13, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With ASSX at $12.07 on that close, the first option leg uses a $11.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ASSX chain at a 35-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 ASSX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Sell 2 | Call | $12.00 | $2.43 |
| Buy 1 | Call | $13.00 | $2.05 |

When traders use butterfly on ASSX
Butterflies on ASSX are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect ASSX to settle near a specific level at expiration (often the prior close, a round number, or the max-pain strike) and want defined-risk exposure to that outcome.
ASSX thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ASSX extends from approximately $5.73 on the downside to $18.41 on the upside. A ASSX long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if ASSX settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. As a Financial Services name, ASSX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ASSX-specific events.
ASSX 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. ASSX positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move ASSX alongside the broader basket even when ASSX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current ASSX chain quotes before placing a trade.
