SPCH Collar Strategy
SPCH (Leverage Shares 2X Long SPCX Daily ETF), in the Financial Services sector, (Asset Management industry), listed on CBOE.
SPCH is designed for making bullish bets on the stock price of Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ: SPCX) or SpaceX through swap agreements. The fund seeks to obtain daily leveraged exposure equivalent to 200% of the fund's net assets. To maintain this exposure, daily rebalancing is performed to make adjustments in response to SPCX's daily price movements. As a geared product, the fund is intended as a short-term tactical tool, rather than as a long-term investment vehicle. As a result, returns may deviate from the expected 2x if held for longer than a single day due to compounding. This strategy is high-risk and does not include a defensive position as part of its overall process.
SPCH (Leverage Shares 2X Long SPCX Daily ETF) trades in the Financial Services sector, specifically Asset Management, with a market capitalization of approximately $303.3M, a beta of 0.00 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 5.3-28.01, average daily share volume of 30.9M, a public-listing history dating back to 2026. These structural characteristics shape how SPCH stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.
A beta of 0.00 indicates SPCH has historically moved less than the broader market, dampening realized volatility and producing tighter expected-move bands per unit of dollar exposure.

SPCH snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $8.98, ATM IV 125.97%, expected move 36.11%. The collar on SPCH 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 28-day expiry.
Why this collar structure on SPCH specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for SPCH is inferred from ATM IV at 125.97% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 36.11% (roughly $3.24 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 SPCH expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on SPCH should anchor to the underlying notional of $8.98 per share and to the trader's directional view on SPCH stock.
SPCH collar setup
The SPCH collar 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 SPCH at $8.98 on that close, the first option leg uses a $9.50 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed SPCH 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 SPCH shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 100 shares | Stock | $8.98 | long |

SPCH thesis for this collar
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for SPCH extends from approximately $5.74 on the downside to $12.22 on the upside. A SPCH collar hedges an existing long SPCH 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. As a Financial Services name, SPCH options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to SPCH-specific events.
SPCH 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. SPCH positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move SPCH alongside the broader basket even when SPCH-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current SPCH chain quotes before placing a trade.
