Current XSVM snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $64.40, ATM IV 29.40%, IV rank 24.37%, expected move 8.43%. The iron condor on XSVM 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 189-day expiry.

Why this iron condor structure on XSVM specifically: XSVM IV at 29.40% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling XSVM iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 8.43% (roughly $5.43 on the underlying).

XSVM iron condor setup

The XSVM 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 XSVM near $64.40, the first option leg uses a $68.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed XSVM chain at a 189-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 XSVM shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Sell 1	Call	$68.00	$3.50
Buy 1	Call	$70.00	$3.00

As a Financial Services name, XSVM options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to XSVM-specific events.

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