IMMX snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $10.90, ATM IV 108.30%, IV rank 19.41%, expected move 31.05%. The covered call on IMMX below is built from the 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 covered call structure on IMMX specifically: IMMX IV at 108.30% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling IMMX covered call collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 31.05% (roughly $3.38 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 IMMX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on IMMX should anchor to the underlying notional of $10.90 per share and to the trader's directional view on IMMX stock.
IMMX covered call setup
The IMMX 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 IMMX at $10.90 on that close, the first option leg uses a $11.45 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed IMMX 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 IMMX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |

IMMX thesis for this covered call
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for IMMX extends from approximately $7.52 on the downside to $14.28 on the upside. A IMMX covered call collects premium on an existing long IMMX position, trading off upside above the short call strike for immediate income; the short strike selection should reflect the trader's view on whether IMMX will breach that level within the expiration window. Current IMMX IV rank near 19.41% 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 IMMX at 108.30%. As a Healthcare name, IMMX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to IMMX-specific events.
IMMX 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. IMMX positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move IMMX alongside the broader basket even when IMMX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a covered call on IMMX carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical IMMX earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current IMMX chain quotes before placing a trade.
