PWB iron condor setup

The PWB 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 PWB near $153.69, the first option leg uses a $160.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets.

Quantity sizing assumes one contract per option leg (or 100 PWB shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

PWB 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.

Short-premium structures like a iron condor on PWB carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical PWB earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current PWB chain quotes before placing a trade.
