ROIV snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $36.32, ATM IV 45.30%, IV rank 40.67%, expected move 12.99%. The cash-secured put on ROIV 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 35-day expiry.

Why this cash-secured put structure on ROIV specifically: ROIV IV at 45.30% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a ROIV cash-secured put sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 12.99% (roughly $4.72 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated ROIV expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ROIV should anchor to the underlying notional of $36.32 per share and to the trader's directional view on ROIV stock.

ROIV cash-secured put setup

The ROIV cash-secured put 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 ROIV at $36.32 on that close, the first option leg uses a $35.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ROIV chain at a 35-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 ROIV shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

ROIV thesis for this cash-secured put

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ROIV extends from approximately $31.60 on the downside to $41.04 on the upside. A ROIV cash-secured put lets a trader earn premium while waiting to acquire ROIV at the strike price; the strategy is most attractive when the trader is comfortable holding the underlying at that level and IV is rich enough to compensate for the assignment risk. Current ROIV IV rank near 40.67% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the cash-secured put thesis on ROIV should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, ROIV options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ROIV-specific events.

ROIV cash-secured put positions are structurally neutral to slightly bullish; 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. ROIV positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move ROIV alongside the broader basket even when ROIV-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a cash-secured put on ROIV carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical ROIV earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current ROIV chain quotes before placing a trade.
