Current CIFG snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $11.15, ATM IV 187.90%, expected move 53.87%. The iron condor on CIFG 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 34-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on CIFG specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for CIFG is inferred from ATM IV at 187.90% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 53.87% (roughly $6.01 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated CIFG expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on CIFG should anchor to the underlying notional of $11.15 per share and to the trader's directional view on CIFG etf.
CIFG iron condor setup
The CIFG 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 CIFG near $11.15, the first option leg uses a $12.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed CIFG chain at a 34-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 CIFG shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

CIFG thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for CIFG extends from approximately $5.14 on the downside to $17.16 on the upside. A CIFG iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when CIFG 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. As a Financial Services name, CIFG options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to CIFG-specific events.
CIFG 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. CIFG positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move CIFG alongside the broader basket even when CIFG-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on CIFG carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical CIFG earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current CIFG chain quotes before placing a trade.
