ROBO snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $84.77, ATM IV 30.30%, IV rank 3.16%, expected move 8.69%. The iron condor on ROBO 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 ROBO specifically: ROBO IV at 30.30% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling ROBO iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 8.69% (roughly $7.36 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 ROBO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay.

ROBO iron condor setup

The ROBO 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 ROBO at $84.77 on that close, the first option leg uses a $90.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ROBO 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 ROBO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$90.00	$1.18
Buy 1	Call	$95.00	$0.40
Sell 1	Put	$80.00	$1.45
Buy 1	Put	$76.00	$0.55

ROBO thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ROBO extends from approximately $77.41 on the downside to $92.13 on the upside. A ROBO iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when ROBO 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 ROBO IV rank near 3.16% 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 ROBO at 30.30%. As a Financial Services name, ROBO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ROBO-specific events.

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