PTF snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $113.10, ATM IV 47.10%, IV rank 56.41%, expected move 13.50%. The iron condor on PTF 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 PTF specifically: PTF IV at 47.10% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a PTF iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 13.50% (roughly $15.27 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 PTF expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay.

PTF iron condor setup

The PTF 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 PTF at $113.10 on that close, the first option leg uses a $120.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed PTF 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 PTF shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$120.00	$3.50
Buy 1	Call	$125.00	$2.43
Sell 1	Put	$105.00	$3.75
Buy 1	Put	$100.00	$2.45

PTF thesis for this iron condor

A PTF iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when PTF 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 PTF IV rank near 56.41% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on PTF should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Financial Services name, PTF options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to PTF-specific events.

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