Current MNDY snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $71.52, ATM IV 67.90%, IV rank 22.10%, expected move 19.47%. The collar on MNDY 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 98-day expiry.

Why this collar structure on MNDY specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed MNDY IV at 67.90% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 19.47% (roughly $13.92 on the underlying). The 98-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated MNDY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on MNDY should anchor to the underlying notional of $71.52 per share and to the trader's directional view on MNDY stock.

MNDY collar setup

The MNDY collar below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With MNDY near $71.52, the first option leg uses a $75.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed MNDY chain at a 98-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 MNDY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Buy 100 shares	Stock	$71.52	long
Sell 1	Call	$75.00	$10.15
Buy 1	Put	$70.00	$9.95

MNDY thesis for this collar

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for MNDY extends from approximately $57.60 on the downside to $85.44 on the upside. A MNDY collar hedges an existing long MNDY 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 MNDY IV rank near 22.10% 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 MNDY at 67.90%. As a Technology name, MNDY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to MNDY-specific events.

MNDY 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. MNDY positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move MNDY alongside the broader basket even when MNDY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current MNDY chain quotes before placing a trade.
