FIRY snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $9.57, ATM IV 88.40%, IV rank 20.16%, expected move 25.34%. The collar on FIRY 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 collar structure on FIRY specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed FIRY IV at 88.40% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 25.34% (roughly $2.43 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 FIRY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on FIRY should anchor to the underlying notional of $9.57 per share and to the trader's directional view on FIRY stock.
FIRY collar setup
The FIRY collar 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 FIRY at $9.57 on that close, the first option leg uses a $10.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed FIRY 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 FIRY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Collars on FIRY hedge an existing long FIRY stock position; the long put sets a floor while the short call finances it, often run as a near-zero-cost hedge during expected volatility windows.
FIRY thesis for this collar
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for FIRY extends from approximately $7.14 on the downside to $12.00 on the upside. A FIRY collar hedges an existing long FIRY 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 FIRY IV rank near 20.16% 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 FIRY at 88.40%. As a Technology name, FIRY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to FIRY-specific events.
FIRY 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. FIRY positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move FIRY alongside the broader basket even when FIRY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current FIRY chain quotes before placing a trade.
