Current UPXI snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $1.44, ATM IV 107.47%, IV rank 21.35%, expected move 30.81%. The bull call spread on UPXI 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 bull call spread structure on UPXI specifically: UPXI IV at 107.47% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a UPXI bull call spread, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 30.81% (roughly $0.44 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 UPXI expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on UPXI should anchor to the underlying notional of $1.44 per share and to the trader's directional view on UPXI stock.
UPXI bull call spread setup
The UPXI bull call spread below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With UPXI near $1.44, the first option leg uses a $1.44 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed UPXI 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 UPXI shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

UPXI thesis for this bull call spread
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for UPXI extends from approximately $1.00 on the downside to $1.88 on the upside. A UPXI bull call spread caps both the risk and the reward of a bullish position; relative to an outright long call on UPXI, the spread reduces the cost basis but limits the maximum profit to the strike width minus net debit. Current UPXI IV rank near 21.35% 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 UPXI at 107.47%. As a Communication Services name, UPXI options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to UPXI-specific events.
UPXI bull call spread positions are structurally moderately 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. UPXI positions also carry Communication Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move UPXI alongside the broader basket even when UPXI-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a bull call spread on UPXI 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 UPXI chain quotes before placing a trade.
