ENLT snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $85.23, ATM IV 55.60%, IV rank 17.77%, expected move 15.94%. The long put on ENLT 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 7-day expiry.
Why this long put structure on ENLT specifically: ENLT IV at 55.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a ENLT long put, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 15.94% (roughly $13.59 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 ENLT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ENLT should anchor to the underlying notional of $85.23 per share and to the trader's directional view on ENLT stock.
ENLT long put setup
The ENLT long put 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 ENLT at $85.23 on that close, the first option leg uses a $85.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ENLT 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 ENLT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

ENLT thesis for this long put
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ENLT extends from approximately $71.64 on the downside to $98.82 on the upside. A ENLT long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long ENLT position with one put per 100 shares held. Current ENLT IV rank near 17.77% 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 ENLT at 55.60%. As a Utilities name, ENLT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ENLT-specific events.
ENLT long put positions are structurally bearish; 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. ENLT positions also carry Utilities sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move ENLT alongside the broader basket even when ENLT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on ENLT 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 ENLT chain quotes before placing a trade.
