What is the breakeven for a CHD collar?

The breakeven for the CHD collar priced on this page is roughly $112.88 at expiration, derived from the November 13, 2026 end-of-day chain's premiums. Breakeven is the underlying price at which the strategy's P&L crosses zero ignoring transaction costs and assignment risk.

CHD snapshot

As of November 13, 2026, spot at $112.72, ATM IV 21.30%, IV rank 29.50%, expected move 6.11%. The collar on CHD below is built from the November 13, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 7-day expiry.

Why this collar structure on CHD specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed CHD IV at 21.30% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 6.11% (roughly $6.88 on the underlying). The 7-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated CHD expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on CHD should anchor to the underlying notional of $112.72 per share and to the trader's directional view on CHD stock.

CHD collar setup

The CHD collar below is built from the November 13, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With CHD at $112.72 on that close, the first option leg uses a $120.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed CHD chain at a 7-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 CHD shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Buy 100 shares	Stock	$112.72	long
Sell 1	Call	$120.00	$0.02
Buy 1	Put	$105.00	$0.18

When traders use collar on CHD

Collars on CHD hedge an existing long CHD stock position; the long put sets a floor while the short call finances it, often run as a near-zero-cost hedge during expected volatility windows.

CHD thesis for this collar

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for CHD extends from approximately $105.84 on the downside to $119.60 on the upside. A CHD collar hedges an existing long CHD position with a protective put while financing the put cost via a short call; when the premiums roughly offset, the collar acts as a near-zero-cost insurance band around the current spot. Current CHD IV rank near 29.50% 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 CHD at 21.30%. As a Consumer Defensive name, CHD options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to CHD-specific events.

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