How are NNE collar max profit and max loss calculated?

Max profit roughly equals short-call strike minus cost basis plus net premium; max loss roughly equals cost basis minus long-put strike minus net premium. Breakeven shifts by the net premium. For the NNE collar priced from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain at a 30-day expiry (ATM IV 84.93%), the computed maximum profit is $94.50 per contract and the computed maximum loss is -$105.50 per contract.

What is the breakeven for a NNE collar?

The breakeven for the NNE collar priced on this page is roughly $19.56 at expiration, derived from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain's premiums.

NNE snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $19.73, ATM IV 84.93%, IV rank 20.87%, expected move 24.35%. The collar on NNE 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 collar structure on NNE specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed NNE IV at 84.93% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 24.35% (roughly $4.80 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 NNE expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on NNE should anchor to the underlying notional of $19.73 per share and to the trader's directional view on NNE stock.

NNE collar setup

The NNE 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 NNE at $19.73 on that close, the first option leg uses a $20.50 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed NNE 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 NNE shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Buy 100 shares	Stock	$19.73	long
Sell 1	Call	$20.50	$1.50
Buy 1	Put	$18.50	$1.33

When traders use collar on NNE

Collars on NNE hedge an existing long NNE 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.

NNE thesis for this collar

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for NNE extends from approximately $14.93 on the downside to $24.53 on the upside. A NNE collar hedges an existing long NNE 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 NNE IV rank near 20.87% 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 NNE at 84.93%. As a Industrials name, NNE options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to NNE-specific events.

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