UNHG snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $20.83, ATM IV 51.00%, IV rank 0.47%, expected move 14.62%. The bull call spread on UNHG below is built from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 35-day expiry.

Why this bull call spread structure on UNHG specifically: UNHG IV at 51.00% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a UNHG bull call spread, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 14.62% (roughly $3.05 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated UNHG expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay.

UNHG bull call spread setup

The UNHG bull call spread below is built from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With UNHG at $20.83 on that close, the first option leg uses a $21.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed UNHG chain at a 35-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 UNHG shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

UNHG thesis for this bull call spread

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for UNHG extends from approximately $17.78 on the downside to $23.88 on the upside. A UNHG bull call spread caps both the risk and the reward of a bullish position; relative to an outright long call on UNHG, the spread reduces the cost basis but limits the maximum profit to the strike width minus net debit. Current UNHG IV rank near 0.47% 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 UNHG at 51.00%. As a Financial Services name, UNHG options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to UNHG-specific events.

UNHG bull call spread positions are structurally moderately bullish; 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. UNHG positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move UNHG alongside the broader basket even when UNHG-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a bull call spread on UNHG 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 UNHG chain quotes before placing a trade.
