Current REZI snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $28.53, ATM IV 43.40%, IV rank 17.14%, expected move 12.44%. The bear put spread on REZI 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 34-day expiry.
Why this bear put spread structure on REZI specifically: REZI IV at 43.40% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a REZI bear put spread, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 12.44% (roughly $3.55 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated REZI expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on REZI should anchor to the underlying notional of $28.53 per share and to the trader's directional view on REZI stock.
REZI bear put spread setup
The REZI bear put spread below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With REZI near $28.53, the first option leg uses a $28.53 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed REZI chain at a 34-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 REZI shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

REZI thesis for this bear put spread
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for REZI extends from approximately $24.98 on the downside to $32.08 on the upside. A REZI bear put spread caps both the risk and the reward of a bearish position; relative to an outright long put on REZI, the spread reduces the cost basis but limits the maximum profit to the strike width minus net debit. Current REZI IV rank near 17.14% 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 REZI at 43.40%. As a Industrials name, REZI options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to REZI-specific events.
REZI bear put spread positions are structurally moderately bearish; 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. REZI positions also carry Industrials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move REZI alongside the broader basket even when REZI-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a bear put spread on REZI are particularly exposed to IV-crush risk through scheduled events (earnings, FDA decisions, central-bank meetings) where IV typically contracts post-event regardless of the directional outcome. Always rebuild the position from current REZI chain quotes before placing a trade.
