Current CMGG snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $14.33, ATM IV 77.20%, expected move 22.13%. The butterfly on CMGG 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 63-day expiry.
Why this butterfly structure on CMGG specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for CMGG is inferred from ATM IV at 77.20% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 22.13% (roughly $3.17 on the underlying). The 63-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated CMGG expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on CMGG should anchor to the underlying notional of $14.33 per share and to the trader's directional view on CMGG etf.
CMGG butterfly setup
The CMGG 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 CMGG near $14.33, the first option leg uses a $14.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed CMGG chain at a 63-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 CMGG shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 1 | Call | $14.00 | $2.10 |
| Sell 2 | Call | $14.00 | $2.10 |
| Buy 1 | Call | $15.00 | $1.38 |

CMGG thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for CMGG extends from approximately $11.16 on the downside to $17.50 on the upside. A CMGG long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if CMGG 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, CMGG options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to CMGG-specific events.
CMGG 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. CMGG positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move CMGG alongside the broader basket even when CMGG-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current CMGG chain quotes before placing a trade.
