What is a collar on WEAV?
A collar pairs long stock with a protective out-of-the-money put financed by a short out-of-the-money call, capping both tails of the position around the current spot.
Current WEAV snapshot
As of June 30, 2026, spot at $6.03, ATM IV 72.60%, IV rank 12.26%, expected move 20.81%. The collar on WEAV 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 17-day expiry.
Why this collar structure on WEAV specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed WEAV IV at 72.60% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 20.81% (roughly $1.26 on the underlying). The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated WEAV expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on WEAV should anchor to the underlying notional of $6.03 per share and to the trader's directional view on WEAV stock.
WEAV collar setup
The WEAV collar below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With WEAV near $6.03, the first option leg uses a $6.33 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed WEAV chain at a 17-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 WEAV shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 100 shares | Stock | $6.03 | long |

| Buy 1 | Put | $5.73 | N/A |

WEAV thesis for this collar
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for WEAV extends from approximately $4.77 on the downside to $7.29 on the upside. A WEAV collar hedges an existing long WEAV 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 WEAV IV rank near 12.26% 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 WEAV at 72.60%. As a Technology name, WEAV options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to WEAV-specific events.
WEAV 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. WEAV positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move WEAV alongside the broader basket even when WEAV-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current WEAV chain quotes before placing a trade.
