AI analysis

Credit here has to justify the gap risk — and at 100% IV, it does. The stock is still up 6% over two months, and that Bullish Engulfing pattern suggests this -7. 6% flush found a floor near $50.

I'd structure a 35-40 DTE put spread, selling the $48 put and buying the $46 for about $0.

70. That's a 0. 35 credit-to-width ratio, which pays for the risk.

However, I want to see a close above yesterday's low before committing capital.
