COHX snapshot
As of September 29, 2026, spot at $22.98, ATM IV 149.60%, IV rank 13.95%, expected move 42.89%. The long call on COHX 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 17-day expiry.
Why this long call structure on COHX specifically: COHX IV at 149.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a COHX long call, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 42.89% (roughly $9.86 on the underlying). The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated COHX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on COHX should anchor to the underlying notional of $22.98 per share and to the trader's directional view on COHX stock.
COHX long call setup
The COHX long call 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 COHX at $22.98 on that close, the first option leg uses a $23.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed COHX chain at a 17-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 COHX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

When traders use long call on COHX
Long calls on COHX express a bullish thesis with defined risk; traders use them ahead of COHX catalysts (earnings, product launches, macro events) when the expected upside justifies the premium and theta decay.
COHX thesis for this long call
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for COHX extends from approximately $13.12 on the downside to $32.84 on the upside. A COHX long call expresses a directional view that the underlying closes above the strike plus premium at expiration, ideally with implied volatility holding or expanding to preserve extrinsic value through the hold period. Current COHX IV rank near 13.95% 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 COHX at 149.60%. As a Financial Services name, COHX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to COHX-specific events.
COHX long call positions are structurally 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. COHX positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move COHX alongside the broader basket even when COHX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long call on COHX 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 COHX chain quotes before placing a trade.
