HYNX snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $24.10, ATM IV 147.80%, expected move 42.37%. The bear put spread on HYNX 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 35-day expiry.

Why this bear put spread structure on HYNX specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for HYNX is inferred from ATM IV at 147.80% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 42.37% (roughly $10.21 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated HYNX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on HYNX should anchor to the underlying notional of $24.10 per share and to the trader's directional view on HYNX stock.

HYNX bear put spread setup

The HYNX bear put spread 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 HYNX at $24.10 on that close, 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 HYNX chain at a 35-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 HYNX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

HYNX thesis for this bear put spread

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for HYNX extends from approximately $13.89 on the downside to $34.31 on the upside. A HYNX bear put spread caps both the risk and the reward of a bearish position; relative to an outright long put on HYNX, the spread reduces the cost basis but limits the maximum profit to the strike width minus net debit. As a Financial Services name, HYNX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to HYNX-specific events.

HYNX bear put spread positions are structurally moderately 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. HYNX positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move HYNX alongside the broader basket even when HYNX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a bear put spread on HYNX 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 HYNX chain quotes before placing a trade.
