TSYY Long Put Strategy

TSYY (GraniteShares YieldBOOST TSLA ETF), in the Financial Services sector, (Asset Management - Income industry), listed on NASDAQ.

The Fund’s primary investment objective is to achieve 2 times (200%) the income generated from selling options on Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ TSLA) (the “Underlying Stock”) by selling options on leveraged exchange-traded funds designed to deliver 2 times (200%) the daily performance of the Underlying Stock (the “Underlying Leveraged ETF”). The Fund’s secondary investment objective is to gain exposure to the performance of the Underlying Leveraged ETF, subject to a cap on potential investment gains. A downside protection may be implemented which could affect the net income level.

TSYY (GraniteShares YieldBOOST TSLA ETF) trades in the Financial Services sector, specifically Asset Management - Income, with a market capitalization of approximately $127.5M, a beta of 1.48 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 3.1-13.06, average daily share volume of 1.1M, a public-listing history dating back to 2024. These structural characteristics shape how TSYY etf options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.

A beta of 1.48 indicates TSYY has historically moved more than the broader market, amplifying both the directional payoff and the realized volatility relative to an index-equivalent position. TSYY pays a dividend, which adjusts put-call parity and shifts the ex-dividend pricing across the listed chain.

Current TSYY snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $3.13, ATM IV 218.40%, expected move 62.61%. The long put on TSYY 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 34-day expiry.

Why this long put structure on TSYY specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for TSYY is inferred from ATM IV at 218.40% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 62.61% (roughly $1.96 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated TSYY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TSYY should anchor to the underlying notional of $3.13 per share and to the trader's directional view on TSYY etf.

TSYY long put setup

The TSYY long put below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With TSYY near $3.13, the first option leg uses a $3.13 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TSYY chain at a 34-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 TSYY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

TSYY thesis for this long put

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TSYY extends from approximately $1.17 on the downside to $5.09 on the upside. A TSYY long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long TSYY position with one put per 100 shares held. As a Financial Services name, TSYY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TSYY-specific events.

TSYY long put positions are structurally bearish; 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. TSYY positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TSYY alongside the broader basket even when TSYY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on TSYY are particularly exposed to IV-crush risk through scheduled events (earnings, FDA decisions, central-bank meetings) where IV typically contracts post-event regardless of the directional outcome. Always rebuild the position from current TSYY chain quotes before placing a trade.
