What is a butterfly on TEAM?

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.

TEAM snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $162.81, ATM IV 55.94%, IV rank 27.46%, expected move 16.04%. The butterfly on TEAM 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 butterfly structure on TEAM specifically: TEAM IV at 55.94% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a TEAM butterfly, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 16.04% (roughly $26.11 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 TEAM expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TEAM should anchor to the underlying notional of $162.81 per share and to the trader's directional view on TEAM stock.

TEAM butterfly setup

The TEAM butterfly 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 TEAM at $162.81 on that close, the first option leg uses a $155.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TEAM 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 TEAM shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

When traders use butterfly on TEAM

Butterflies on TEAM are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect TEAM to settle near a specific level at expiration (often the prior close, a round number, or the max-pain strike) and want defined-risk exposure to that outcome.

TEAM thesis for this butterfly

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TEAM extends from approximately $136.70 on the downside to $188.92 on the upside. A TEAM long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if TEAM settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current TEAM IV rank near 27.46% 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 TEAM at 55.94%. As a Technology name, TEAM options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TEAM-specific events.

TEAM 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. TEAM positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TEAM alongside the broader basket even when TEAM-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current TEAM chain quotes before placing a trade.
