APH iron condor setup

The APH 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 APH near $177.39, the first option leg uses a $185.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets.

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

APH 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.

Short-premium structures like a iron condor on APH carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical APH earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current APH chain quotes before placing a trade.
