ALOY snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $14.72, ATM IV 119.10%, IV rank 60.55%, expected move 34.14%. The bull call spread on ALOY 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 ALOY specifically: ALOY IV at 119.10% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so strategy selection should anchor more to the directional thesis than to the IV regime, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 34.14% (roughly $5.03 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 ALOY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ALOY should anchor to the underlying notional of $14.72 per share and to the trader's directional view on ALOY stock.
ALOY bull call spread setup
The ALOY 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 ALOY at $14.72 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 ALOY 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 ALOY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |

ALOY thesis for this bull call spread
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ALOY extends from approximately $9.69 on the downside to $19.75 on the upside. A ALOY bull call spread caps both the risk and the reward of a bullish position; relative to an outright long call on ALOY, the spread reduces the cost basis but limits the maximum profit to the strike width minus net debit. Current ALOY IV rank near 60.55% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the bull call spread thesis on ALOY should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Basic Materials name, ALOY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ALOY-specific events.
ALOY 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. ALOY positions also carry Basic Materials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move ALOY alongside the broader basket even when ALOY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a bull call spread on ALOY 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 ALOY chain quotes before placing a trade.
