What is a iron condor on ALLO?

An iron condor sells a call spread and a put spread at strikes outside spot, collecting net premium that is kept if the underlying stays inside the inner short strikes.

Current ALLO snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $2.00, ATM IV 49.20%, IV rank 6.72%, expected move 14.11%. The iron condor on ALLO 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 34-day expiry.

Why this iron condor structure on ALLO specifically: ALLO IV at 49.20% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling ALLO iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 14.11% (roughly $0.28 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated ALLO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ALLO should anchor to the underlying notional of $2.00 per share and to the trader's directional view on ALLO stock.

ALLO iron condor setup

The ALLO 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 ALLO near $2.00, the first option leg uses a $2.10 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ALLO chain at a 34-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 ALLO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

ALLO thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ALLO extends from approximately $1.72 on the downside to $2.28 on the upside. A ALLO iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when ALLO 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 ALLO IV rank near 6.72% 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 ALLO at 49.20%. As a Healthcare name, ALLO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ALLO-specific events.

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