What is a collar on EVCM?
A collar pairs long stock with a protective out-of-the-money put financed by a short out-of-the-money call, capping both tails of the position around the current spot.
Current EVCM snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $9.57, ATM IV 133.90%, IV rank 44.54%, expected move 38.39%. The collar on EVCM below is built from the same end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 34-day expiry.
Why this collar structure on EVCM specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; mid-range EVCM IV at 133.90% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 38.39% (roughly $3.67 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated EVCM expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on EVCM should anchor to the underlying notional of $9.57 per share and to the trader's directional view on EVCM stock.
EVCM collar setup
The EVCM collar below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With EVCM near $9.57, the first option leg uses a $10.05 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed EVCM chain at a 34-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 EVCM shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 100 shares | Stock | $9.57 | long |
| Sell 1 | Call | $10.05 | N/A |
| Buy 1 | Put | $9.09 | N/A |

EVCM thesis for this collar
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for EVCM extends from approximately $5.90 on the downside to $13.24 on the upside. A EVCM collar hedges an existing long EVCM 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 EVCM IV rank near 44.54% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the collar thesis on EVCM should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Technology name, EVCM options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to EVCM-specific events.
EVCM 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. EVCM positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move EVCM alongside the broader basket even when EVCM-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current EVCM chain quotes before placing a trade.
