COMB snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $26.52, ATM IV 9.60%, IV rank 0.00%, expected move 2.75%. The iron condor on COMB below is built from the August 14, 2026 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 COMB specifically: COMB IV at 9.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling COMB iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 2.75% (roughly $0.73 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 COMB expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on COMB should anchor to the underlying notional of $26.52 per share and to the trader's directional view on COMB etf.

COMB iron condor setup

The COMB iron condor below is built from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With COMB at $26.52 on that close, the first option leg uses a $28.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed COMB 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 COMB shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$28.00	$0.21
Buy 1	Call	$29.00	$0.08
Sell 1	Put	$25.00	$0.21
Buy 1	Put	$24.00	$0.07

COMB thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for COMB extends from approximately $25.79 on the downside to $27.25 on the upside. A COMB iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when COMB 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 COMB IV rank near 0.00% sits in the lower third of its 1-year distribution, where IV often re-expands toward the mean; this favors premium-buying structures and disadvantages premium-selling structures on COMB at 9.60%. As a Financial Services name, COMB options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to COMB-specific events.

COMB 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. COMB positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move COMB alongside the broader basket even when COMB-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on COMB carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical COMB earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current COMB chain quotes before placing a trade.
