ODD (Oddity Tech Ltd.) trades in the Technology sector, specifically Software - Infrastructure, with a market capitalization of approximately $720.6M, a trailing P/E of 6.57, a beta of 2.58 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 10.8-79.18, average daily share volume of 2.4M, a public-listing history dating back to 2023, approximately 489 full-time employees. These structural characteristics shape how ODD stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.
A beta of 2.58 indicates ODD has historically moved more than the broader market, amplifying both the directional payoff and the realized volatility relative to an index-equivalent position. The trailing P/E of 6.57 is on the value side, where IV often compresses outside event windows because forward growth expectations are already discounted into the share price.
What is a collar on ODD?
A collar pairs long stock with a protective out-of-the-money put financed by a short out-of-the-money call, capping both tails of the position around the current spot.
Current ODD snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $12.60, ATM IV 104.54%, IV rank 74.53%, expected move 29.97%. The collar on ODD 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 28-day expiry.
Why this collar structure on ODD specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; elevated ODD IV at 104.54% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 29.97% (roughly $3.78 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 ODD expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ODD should anchor to the underlying notional of $12.60 per share and to the trader's directional view on ODD stock.
ODD collar setup
The ODD 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 ODD near $12.60, the first option leg uses a $13.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ODD 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 ODD shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 100 shares | Stock | $12.60 | long |
| Sell 1 | Call | $13.00 | $1.33 |
| Buy 1 | Put | $12.00 | $1.10 |

ODD thesis for this collar
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ODD extends from approximately $8.82 on the downside to $16.38 on the upside. A ODD collar hedges an existing long ODD 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 ODD IV rank near 74.53% sits in the upper third of its 1-year distribution, which historically reverts; this raises the bar for premium-buying structures and lowers it for premium-selling structures on ODD at 104.54%. As a Technology name, ODD options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ODD-specific events.
ODD 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. ODD positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move ODD alongside the broader basket even when ODD-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current ODD chain quotes before placing a trade.
