WULF Bull Call Spread — 2026-08-21

WULF (TeraWulf Inc. - Common Stock) shows bullish unusual options activity: $1198K of buyer-initiated unusual call flow (100% call-dominant) detected across near-term expirations, with a peak vol/OI ratio of 358.6x on the 16 call. IV rank is 76 (elevated) — too rich to buy a naked option into, so this is structured as a bull call spread (17/17.5) to cut vega and cost. Buy the $17 / sell the $17.5 call bull call spread expiring 2026-08-21 (23 DTE) for a net debit of $0.17 ($17 per spread). Breakeven at $17.17; net delta 0.04. NOTE: earnings (2026-08-05) fall inside the trade window — premium will likely crush on the print; sized/structured defensively and not a hold-through-earnings idea.

Underlying: WULF @ ~$17.09 | 2026-08-21 (23 DTE) | Net debit (entry): ~$17 per spread. Use limit orders at the mid or slightly worse.

MAX LOSS: Limited to the net debit ($17 per spread). Max gain is capped at the strike width minus the debit — a defined-risk, defined-reward trade. | IV RISK: IV rank is 76 — elevated IV inflates premiums; a vol crush could erode value even if direction is correct (the short leg offsets some of this vega). | TIMING: 23 DTE — unusual flow is a near-term signal; act promptly or the setup may stale. Close or take profit before expiration week to avoid gamma risk. | SECTOR: WULF is in Other — avoid concentration with other open Other positions. | EXECUTION: Use limit orders at mid or slightly worse on the spread (don't leg in). Verify the bid-ask before sending; do not chase with market orders. | EARNINGS: Report on 2026-08-05 lands inside this trade. Expect a vol crush on the print — this is structured as a spread for that reason; do not add size into the event.
