ANGL snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $29.05, ATM IV 109.30%, IV rank 61.04%, expected move 31.34%. The iron condor on ANGL below is built from the end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 35-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on ANGL specifically: ANGL IV at 109.30% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a ANGL iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 31.34% (roughly $9.10 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated ANGL expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ANGL should anchor to the underlying notional of $29.05 per share and to the trader's directional view on ANGL etf.
ANGL iron condor setup
The ANGL iron condor below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With ANGL at $29.05 on that close, the first option leg uses a $30.50 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ANGL chain at a 35-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 ANGL shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

ANGL thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ANGL extends from approximately $19.95 on the downside to $38.15 on the upside. A ANGL iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when ANGL stays inside the inner short strikes through expiration; the wing width should reflect the trader's tolerance for the maximum loss scenario where the underlying breaches an outer strike. Current ANGL IV rank near 61.04% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on ANGL should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Financial Services name, ANGL options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ANGL-specific events.
ANGL iron condor positions are structurally neutral / range-bound; 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. ANGL positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move ANGL alongside the broader basket even when ANGL-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on ANGL carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical ANGL earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current ANGL chain quotes before placing a trade.
