Why this iron condor structure on ADSK specifically: ADSK IV at 43.11% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a ADSK iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 12.36% (roughly $24.01 on the underlying).

ADSK iron condor setup

The ADSK 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 ADSK near $194.29, the first option leg uses a $205.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets.

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