What is a butterfly on VINP?
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 VINP snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $10.29, ATM IV 61.60%, IV rank 20.45%, expected move 17.66%. The butterfly on VINP 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 VINP specifically: VINP IV at 61.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a VINP butterfly, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 17.66% (roughly $1.82 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 VINP expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on VINP should anchor to the underlying notional of $10.29 per share and to the trader's directional view on VINP stock.
VINP butterfly setup
The VINP 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 VINP near $10.29, the first option leg uses a $9.78 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed VINP 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 VINP shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 1 | Call | $9.78 | N/A |
| Sell 2 | Call | $10.29 | N/A |
| Buy 1 | Call | $10.80 | N/A |

Butterflies on VINP are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect VINP 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.
VINP thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for VINP extends from approximately $8.47 on the downside to $12.11 on the upside. A VINP long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if VINP settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current VINP IV rank near 20.45% 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 VINP at 61.60%. As a Financial Services name, VINP options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to VINP-specific events.
VINP 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. VINP positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move VINP alongside the broader basket even when VINP-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current VINP chain quotes before placing a trade.
