RGTX snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $15.08, ATM IV 155.80%, IV rank 13.23%, expected move 44.67%. The iron condor on RGTX 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 RGTX specifically: RGTX IV at 155.80% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling RGTX iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 44.67% (roughly $6.74 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 RGTX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on RGTX should anchor to the underlying notional of $15.08 per share and to the trader's directional view on RGTX etf.
RGTX iron condor setup
The RGTX 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 RGTX at $15.08 on that close, the first option leg uses a $16.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed RGTX 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 RGTX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Sell 1 | Call | $16.00 | $2.38 |

| Sell 1 | Put | $14.00 | $2.38 |

RGTX thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for RGTX extends from approximately $8.34 on the downside to $21.82 on the upside. A RGTX iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when RGTX 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 RGTX IV rank near 13.23% 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 RGTX at 155.80%. As a Financial Services name, RGTX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to RGTX-specific events.
RGTX 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. RGTX positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move RGTX alongside the broader basket even when RGTX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on RGTX carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical RGTX earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current RGTX chain quotes before placing a trade.
