Current FIG snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $22.81, ATM IV 85.22%, IV rank 52.37%, expected move 24.43%. The covered call on FIG 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 28-day expiry.

Why this covered call structure on FIG specifically: FIG IV at 85.22% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a FIG covered call sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 24.43% (roughly $5.57 on the underlying). The 28-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated FIG expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on FIG should anchor to the underlying notional of $22.81 per share and to the trader's directional view on FIG stock.

FIG covered call setup

The FIG 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 FIG near $22.81, the first option leg uses a $24.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed FIG chain at a 28-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 FIG shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Covered calls on FIG are an income strategy run on existing FIG stock positions; traders typically sell calls at 25-35 delta with 30-45 days to expiration to balance premium against upside cap.

FIG thesis for this covered call

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for FIG extends from approximately $17.24 on the downside to $28.38 on the upside. A FIG covered call collects premium on an existing long FIG position, trading off upside above the short call strike for immediate income; the short strike selection should reflect the trader's view on whether FIG will breach that level within the expiration window. Current FIG IV rank near 52.37% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the covered call thesis on FIG should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Technology name, FIG options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to FIG-specific events.

FIG 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. FIG positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move FIG alongside the broader basket even when FIG-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a covered call on FIG carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical FIG earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current FIG chain quotes before placing a trade.
