TNGX snapshot

As of September 30, 2026, spot at $25.26, ATM IV 77.10%, IV rank 5.92%, expected move 22.10%. The collar on TNGX below is built from the September 30, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 16-day expiry.

Why this collar structure on TNGX specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed TNGX IV at 77.10% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 22.10% (roughly $5.58 on the underlying). The 16-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated TNGX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TNGX should anchor to the underlying notional of $25.26 per share and to the trader's directional view on TNGX stock.

TNGX collar setup

The TNGX collar below is built from the September 30, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With TNGX at $25.26 on that close, the first option leg uses a $27.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TNGX chain at a 16-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 TNGX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Buy 100 shares	Stock	$25.26	long
Sell 1	Call	$27.00	$0.73
Buy 1	Put	$24.00	$1.30

When traders use collar on TNGX

Collars on TNGX hedge an existing long TNGX stock position; the long put sets a floor while the short call finances it, often run as a near-zero-cost hedge during expected volatility windows.

TNGX thesis for this collar

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TNGX extends from approximately $19.68 on the downside to $30.84 on the upside. A TNGX collar hedges an existing long TNGX 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. Current TNGX IV rank near 5.92% 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 TNGX at 77.10%. As a Healthcare name, TNGX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TNGX-specific events.

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