TTMX snapshot
As of September 29, 2026, spot at $8.48, ATM IV 169.20%, expected move 48.51%. The long put on TTMX 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 80-day expiry.
Why this long put structure on TTMX specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for TTMX is inferred from ATM IV at 169.20% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 48.51% (roughly $4.11 on the underlying). The 80-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated TTMX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TTMX should anchor to the underlying notional of $8.48 per share and to the trader's directional view on TTMX etf.
TTMX long put setup
The TTMX long put 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 TTMX at $8.48 on that close, the first option leg uses a $8.48 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TTMX chain at a 80-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 TTMX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

TTMX thesis for this long put
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TTMX extends from approximately $4.37 on the downside to $12.59 on the upside. A TTMX long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long TTMX position with one put per 100 shares held. As a Financial Services name, TTMX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TTMX-specific events.
TTMX 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. TTMX positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TTMX alongside the broader basket even when TTMX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on TTMX 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 TTMX chain quotes before placing a trade.
