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.

SKHA snapshot

As of September 29, 2026, spot at $37.22, ATM IV 110.00%, expected move 31.54%. The butterfly on SKHA 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 butterfly structure on SKHA specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for SKHA is inferred from ATM IV at 110.00% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 31.54% (roughly $11.74 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 SKHA expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on SKHA should anchor to the underlying notional of $37.22 per share and to the trader's directional view on SKHA etf.

SKHA butterfly setup

The SKHA butterfly 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 SKHA at $37.22 on that close, the first option leg uses a $35.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed SKHA 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 SKHA shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

When traders use butterfly on SKHA

Butterflies on SKHA are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect SKHA 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.

SKHA thesis for this butterfly

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for SKHA extends from approximately $25.48 on the downside to $48.96 on the upside. A SKHA long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if SKHA 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, SKHA options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to SKHA-specific events.

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