DGNX snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $1.31, ATM IV 292.50%, IV rank 60.83%, expected move 83.86%. The covered call on DGNX below is built from the 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 covered call structure on DGNX specifically: DGNX IV at 292.50% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a DGNX covered call sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 83.86% (roughly $1.10 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 DGNX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on DGNX should anchor to the underlying notional of $1.31 per share and to the trader's directional view on DGNX stock.
DGNX covered call setup
The DGNX covered call below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With DGNX at $1.31 on that close, the first option leg uses a $1.38 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed DGNX 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 DGNX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |

DGNX thesis for this covered call
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for DGNX extends from approximately $0.21 on the downside to $2.41 on the upside. A DGNX covered call collects premium on an existing long DGNX position, trading off upside above the short call strike for immediate income; the short strike selection should reflect the trader's view on whether DGNX will breach that level within the expiration window. Current DGNX IV rank near 60.83% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the covered call thesis on DGNX should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Technology name, DGNX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to DGNX-specific events.
DGNX covered call positions are structurally neutral to slightly 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. DGNX positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move DGNX alongside the broader basket even when DGNX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a covered call on DGNX carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical DGNX earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current DGNX chain quotes before placing a trade.
