SUNS Long Put Strategy
SUNS (Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc.), in the Real Estate sector, (REIT - Residential industry), listed on NASDAQ.
Founded in 2017, Sunrise REIT has served the Canadian rental community's growing need for new property and real estate projects through impressive integrity and a commitment to delivering results with the highest quality standards. Our professional team works closely with both investors and landowners in order to come up with results that exceed expectations.
SUNS (Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc.) trades in the Real Estate sector, specifically REIT - Residential, with a market capitalization of approximately $99.4M, a trailing P/E of 7.71, a beta of 0.89 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 7.3359-11.78, average daily share volume of 100K, a public-listing history dating back to 2011. These structural characteristics shape how SUNS stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.
A beta of 0.89 places SUNS roughly in line with broader market moves, so the strategy payoff and realized volatility track the index-equivalent baseline. The trailing P/E of 7.71 is on the value side, where IV often compresses outside event windows because forward growth expectations are already discounted into the share price. SUNS pays a dividend, which adjusts put-call parity and shifts the ex-dividend pricing across the listed chain.
What is a long put on SUNS?
A long put buys downside exposure with a fixed maximum loss equal to the premium paid; profit accrues if the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration.
Current SUNS snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $7.96, ATM IV 54.90%, IV rank 9.02%, expected move 15.74%. The long put on SUNS 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 long put structure on SUNS specifically: SUNS IV at 54.90% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a SUNS long put, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 15.74% (roughly $1.25 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 SUNS expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on SUNS should anchor to the underlying notional of $7.96 per share and to the trader's directional view on SUNS stock.
SUNS long put setup
The SUNS long put below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With SUNS near $7.96, the first option leg uses a $7.96 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed SUNS 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 SUNS shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

SUNS thesis for this long put
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for SUNS extends from approximately $6.71 on the downside to $9.21 on the upside. A SUNS long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long SUNS position with one put per 100 shares held. Current SUNS IV rank near 9.02% 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 SUNS at 54.90%. As a Real Estate name, SUNS options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to SUNS-specific events.
SUNS long put positions are structurally 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. SUNS positions also carry Real Estate sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move SUNS alongside the broader basket even when SUNS-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on SUNS 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 SUNS chain quotes before placing a trade.
