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.
AXTU snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $6.47, ATM IV 364.50%, expected move 104.50%. The butterfly on AXTU below is built from the August 14, 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 AXTU specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for AXTU is inferred from ATM IV at 364.50% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 104.50% (roughly $6.76 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 AXTU expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AXTU should anchor to the underlying notional of $6.47 per share and to the trader's directional view on AXTU etf.
AXTU butterfly setup
The AXTU butterfly below is built from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With AXTU at $6.47 on that close, the first option leg uses a $6.15 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AXTU 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 AXTU shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

When traders use butterfly on AXTU
Butterflies on AXTU are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect AXTU 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.
AXTU thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AXTU extends from approximately $-0.29 on the downside to $13.23 on the upside. A AXTU long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if AXTU 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, AXTU options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AXTU-specific events.
AXTU 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. AXTU positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move AXTU alongside the broader basket even when AXTU-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current AXTU chain quotes before placing a trade.

- How are AXTU butterfly max profit and max loss calculated?
- Max profit equals the wing width minus net debit times 100 (reached when the underlying pins the middle strike); max loss equals the net debit times 100.
