Current WRBY snapshot

As of June 29, 2026, spot at $30.38, ATM IV 78.39%, IV rank 69.45%, expected move 22.47%. The long put on WRBY 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 32-day expiry.

Why this long put structure on WRBY specifically: WRBY IV at 78.39% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so strategy selection should anchor more to the directional thesis than to the IV regime, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 22.47% (roughly $6.83 on the underlying). The 32-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated WRBY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay.

WRBY long put setup

The WRBY long put below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With WRBY near $30.38, the first option leg uses a $30.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed WRBY chain at a 32-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 WRBY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

WRBY thesis for this long put

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for WRBY extends from approximately $23.55 on the downside to $37.21 on the upside. A WRBY long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long WRBY position with one put per 100 shares held. Current WRBY IV rank near 69.45% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the long put thesis on WRBY should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, WRBY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to WRBY-specific events.

WRBY long put positions are structurally bearish; 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. WRBY positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move WRBY alongside the broader basket even when WRBY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on WRBY 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 WRBY chain quotes before placing a trade.
