RAML Strangle Strategy

RAML (Themes ETF Trust - Leverage Shares 2X Long Memory Daily ETF), in the Financial Services sector, (Asset Management industry), listed on CBOE.

RAML is designed to make bullish bets on the stock price of Roundhill Memory ETF (CBOE: DRAM) through swap agreements. The objective is to obtain daily leveraged exposure equivalent to 200% of the fund's net assets.

As a result, returns may deviate from the expected 2x multiplier if held for longer than a single day due to compounding.

RAML (Themes ETF Trust - Leverage Shares 2X Long Memory Daily ETF) trades in the Financial Services sector, specifically Asset Management, with a market capitalization of approximately $745,713, a beta of 0.00 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 8.84-16, average daily share volume of 13K, a public-listing history dating back to 2026.

RAML snapshot

As of September 29, 2026, spot at $14.73, ATM IV 113.00%, expected move 32.40%. The strangle on RAML below is built from the September 29, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 17-day expiry.

Why this strangle structure on RAML specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for RAML is inferred from ATM IV at 113.00% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 32.40% (roughly $4.77 on the underlying). The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated RAML expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on RAML should anchor to the underlying notional of $14.73 per share and to the trader's directional view on RAML etf.

RAML strangle setup

The RAML strangle below is built from the September 29, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With RAML at $14.73 on that close, the first option leg uses a $15.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed RAML chain at a 17-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 RAML shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Buy 1	Call	$15.00	$1.25
Buy 1	Put	$14.00	$1.05

When traders use strangle on RAML

Strangles on RAML are the cheaper cousin of the straddle - traders use them when they want a large directional move but are willing to give up the inner-strike sensitivity in exchange for a lower up-front debit on the RAML chain.

RAML thesis for this strangle

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for RAML extends from approximately $9.96 on the downside to $19.50 on the upside. A RAML long strangle is the OTM cousin of the straddle: lower up-front cost but the underlying has to travel further past either OTM strike before the position turns profitable at expiration. As a Financial Services name, RAML options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to RAML-specific events.

RAML strangle positions are structurally neutral / high-volatility (long premium, OTM); 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. RAML positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move RAML alongside the broader basket even when RAML-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current RAML chain quotes before placing a trade.
