FIGR snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $31.34, ATM IV 77.29%, IV rank 11.26%, expected move 22.16%. The cash-secured put on FIGR 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 28-day expiry.
Why this cash-secured put structure on FIGR specifically: FIGR IV at 77.29% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling FIGR cash-secured put collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 22.16% (roughly $6.94 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 FIGR expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on FIGR should anchor to the underlying notional of $31.34 per share and to the trader's directional view on FIGR stock.
FIGR cash-secured put setup
The FIGR cash-secured 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 FIGR at $31.34 on that close, the first option leg uses a $30.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed FIGR 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 FIGR shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

FIGR thesis for this cash-secured put
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for FIGR extends from approximately $24.40 on the downside to $38.28 on the upside. A FIGR cash-secured put lets a trader earn premium while waiting to acquire FIGR at the strike price; the strategy is most attractive when the trader is comfortable holding the underlying at that level and IV is rich enough to compensate for the assignment risk. Current FIGR IV rank near 11.26% 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 FIGR at 77.29%. As a Financial Services name, FIGR options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to FIGR-specific events.
FIGR cash-secured put 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. FIGR positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move FIGR alongside the broader basket even when FIGR-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a cash-secured put on FIGR carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical FIGR earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current FIGR chain quotes before placing a trade.
