What is a butterfly on SECZ?
A long call butterfly buys one lower-strike call, sells two ATM calls, and buys one higher-strike call, paying a small net debit for a defined-risk position that maxes out if the underlying pins the middle strike at expiration.
SECZ snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $5.69, ATM IV 113.40%, expected move 32.51%. The butterfly on SECZ below is built from the 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 butterfly structure on SECZ specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for SECZ is inferred from ATM IV at 113.40% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 32.51% (roughly $1.85 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 SECZ expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on SECZ should anchor to the underlying notional of $5.69 per share and to the trader's directional view on SECZ stock.
SECZ butterfly setup
The SECZ butterfly below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With SECZ at $5.69 on that close, the first option leg uses a $5.41 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed SECZ 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 SECZ shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

SECZ thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for SECZ extends from approximately $3.84 on the downside to $7.54 on the upside. A SECZ long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if SECZ settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. As a Financial Services name, SECZ options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to SECZ-specific events.
SECZ butterfly positions are structurally neutral / pin (limited-risk, limited-reward); 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. SECZ positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move SECZ alongside the broader basket even when SECZ-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current SECZ chain quotes before placing a trade.
