Current TLRY snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $5.30, ATM IV 73.66%, IV rank 0.00%, expected move 21.12%. The cash-secured put on TLRY 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 28-day expiry.
Why this cash-secured put structure on TLRY specifically: TLRY IV at 73.66% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling TLRY cash-secured put collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 21.12% (roughly $1.12 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 TLRY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TLRY should anchor to the underlying notional of $5.30 per share and to the trader's directional view on TLRY stock.
TLRY cash-secured put setup
The TLRY cash-secured 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 TLRY near $5.30, the first option leg uses a $5.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TLRY 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 TLRY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

TLRY thesis for this cash-secured put
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TLRY extends from approximately $4.18 on the downside to $6.42 on the upside. A TLRY cash-secured put lets a trader earn premium while waiting to acquire TLRY 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 TLRY IV rank near 0.00% 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 TLRY at 73.66%. As a Healthcare name, TLRY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TLRY-specific events.
TLRY 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. TLRY positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TLRY alongside the broader basket even when TLRY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a cash-secured put on TLRY carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical TLRY earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current TLRY chain quotes before placing a trade.
