    Short the ATM call, buy the ATM put. Quote it relative to the share price.

    Yeah, that was wild.

    No vol. I was referring to pricing the synthetic relative to shares for future optionable but HTB shares.

    Are you sure IB doesn't allow shorting or were there no shares available at the time you tried to short.
    Iborrowdesk.com (which scrapes IB's short availability) shows they currently have a small amount of stock available to short at a rate of 500%.

    Hmm,the goofy thing appears to be halted but the stock split doesn't happen until 6/16. WTF?
