Current GOOP snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $46.85, ATM IV 42.10%, IV rank 17.22%, expected move 12.07%. The butterfly on GOOP 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 154-day expiry.
Why this butterfly structure on GOOP specifically: GOOP IV at 42.10% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a GOOP butterfly, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 12.07% (roughly $5.65 on the underlying). The 154-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated GOOP expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on GOOP should anchor to the underlying notional of $46.85 per share and to the trader's directional view on GOOP etf.
GOOP butterfly setup
The GOOP 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 GOOP near $46.85, the first option leg uses a $45.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed GOOP chain at a 154-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 GOOP shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 1 | Call | $45.00 | $4.90 |
| Sell 2 | Call | $47.00 | $3.80 |
| Buy 1 | Call | $49.00 | $3.20 |

When traders use butterfly on GOOP
Butterflies on GOOP are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect GOOP 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.
GOOP thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for GOOP extends from approximately $41.20 on the downside to $52.50 on the upside. A GOOP long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if GOOP settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current GOOP IV rank near 17.22% sits in the lower third of its 1-year distribution, where IV often re-expands toward the mean; this favors premium-buying structures and disadvantages premium-selling structures on GOOP at 42.10%. As a Financial Services name, GOOP options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to GOOP-specific events.
GOOP 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. GOOP positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move GOOP alongside the broader basket even when GOOP-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current GOOP chain quotes before placing a trade.
