What is a butterfly on TRAK?
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.
Current TRAK snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $9.77, ATM IV 30.10%, IV rank 2.38%, expected move 8.63%. The butterfly on TRAK 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 butterfly structure on TRAK specifically: TRAK IV at 30.10% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a TRAK butterfly, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 8.63% (roughly $0.84 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 TRAK expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TRAK should anchor to the underlying notional of $9.77 per share and to the trader's directional view on TRAK stock.
TRAK butterfly setup
The TRAK butterfly below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With TRAK near $9.77, the first option leg uses a $9.28 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TRAK 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 TRAK shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 1 | Call | $9.28 | N/A |
| Sell 2 | Call | $9.77 | N/A |
| Buy 1 | Call | $10.26 | N/A |

When traders use butterfly on TRAK
Butterflies on TRAK are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect TRAK 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.
TRAK thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TRAK extends from approximately $8.93 on the downside to $10.61 on the upside. A TRAK long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if TRAK settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current TRAK IV rank near 2.38% 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 TRAK at 30.10%. As a Technology name, TRAK options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TRAK-specific events.
TRAK 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. TRAK positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TRAK alongside the broader basket even when TRAK-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current TRAK chain quotes before placing a trade.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a butterfly on TRAK?

With TRAK stock trading near $9.77, the strikes shown on this page are snapped to the nearest listed TRAK chain strike and the premiums come straight from the end-of-day bid/ask midpoint.
- How are TRAK butterfly max profit and max loss calculated?
- Max profit equals the wing width minus net debit times 100 (reached when the underlying pins the middle strike); max loss equals the net debit times 100. Two breakevens at lower-wing plus debit and upper-wing minus debit.

Live intraday quotes will differ as the chain moves through the trading session.
- What is the breakeven for a TRAK butterfly?
- The breakeven for the TRAK butterfly priced on this page is no defined breakeven on the modeled curve at expiration, derived from end-of-day chain premiums. Breakeven is the underlying price at which the strategy's P&L crosses zero ignoring transaction costs and assignment risk. The current TRAK market-implied 1-standard-deviation expected move is approximately 8.63%; if the move sits well outside the breakeven distance, the structure's risk-reward becomes correspondingly tighter.
