NVNO Straddle Strategy
NVNO (enVVeno Medical Corporation), in the Healthcare sector, (Medical - Devices industry), listed on NASDAQ.
enVVeno Medical Corporation, based in Irvine, California, is a medical device firm founded in 1999 that is currently in its clinical development phase. The company's primary objective is to pioneer advanced bioprosthetic, tissue-engineered solutions intended to significantly elevate the existing standards of care for patients suffering from venous conditions. Their flagship product is the VenoValve, a specialized replacement venous valve developed for the management of chronic venous insufficiency. This device requires an open surgical procedure for implantation, which involves making a 5-to-6-inch incision in the patient's upper thigh to facilitate placement into the femoral vein. In addition to the VenoValve, enVVeno Medical is actively developing the enVVe system. This innovative system represents a non-surgical, transcatheter approach to venous valve replacement, comprising the enVVe valve itself, a dedicated delivery mechanism, and various supplementary accessories.
NVNO (enVVeno Medical Corporation) trades in the Healthcare sector, specifically Medical - Devices, with a market capitalization of approximately $178,893, a beta of 1.09 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 8.67-196.7, average daily share volume of 10K, a public-listing history dating back to 2018, approximately 37 full-time employees. These structural characteristics shape how NVNO stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.
A beta of 1.09 places NVNO roughly in line with broader market moves, so the strategy payoff and realized volatility track the index-equivalent baseline.
What is a straddle on NVNO?
A long straddle buys an ATM call and an ATM put at the same strike, profiting from a large move in either direction; max loss equals the combined debit when the underlying pins to the strike at expiration.
Current NVNO snapshot
As of June 29, 2026, spot at $10.89, ATM IV 58.00%, IV rank 8.43%, expected move 16.63%. The straddle on NVNO 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 53-day expiry.
Why this straddle structure on NVNO specifically: NVNO IV at 58.00% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a NVNO straddle, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 16.63% (roughly $1.81 on the underlying). The 53-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated NVNO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on NVNO should anchor to the underlying notional of $10.89 per share and to the trader's directional view on NVNO stock.
NVNO straddle setup
The NVNO straddle below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With NVNO near $10.89, the first option leg uses a $10.89 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed NVNO chain at a 53-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 NVNO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |

When traders use straddle on NVNO

NVNO thesis for this straddle
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for NVNO extends from approximately $9.08 on the downside to $12.70 on the upside. A NVNO long straddle is a pure-volatility play: it profits when the underlying moves far enough from the strike in either direction to overcome the combined call plus put debit, regardless of direction. Current NVNO IV rank near 8.43% 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 NVNO at 58.00%. As a Healthcare name, NVNO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to NVNO-specific events.
NVNO straddle positions are structurally neutral / high-volatility (long premium); 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. NVNO positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move NVNO alongside the broader basket even when NVNO-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current NVNO chain quotes before placing a trade.
