Current HUMN snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $37.66, ATM IV 30.60%, IV rank 16.20%, expected move 8.77%. The iron condor on HUMN 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 HUMN specifically: HUMN IV at 30.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling HUMN iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 8.77% (roughly $3.30 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 HUMN expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on HUMN should anchor to the underlying notional of $37.66 per share and to the trader's directional view on HUMN etf.
HUMN iron condor setup
The HUMN 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 HUMN near $37.66, the first option leg uses a $39.54 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed HUMN 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 HUMN shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 1 | Call | $41.43 | N/A |

HUMN thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for HUMN extends from approximately $34.36 on the downside to $40.96 on the upside. A HUMN iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when HUMN 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 HUMN IV rank near 16.20% 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 HUMN at 30.60%. As a Technology name, HUMN options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to HUMN-specific events.
HUMN 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. HUMN positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move HUMN alongside the broader basket even when HUMN-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on HUMN carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical HUMN earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current HUMN chain quotes before placing a trade.
