AUR snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $7.09, ATM IV 59.83%, IV rank 4.37%, expected move 17.15%. The iron condor on AUR 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 28-day expiry.

Why this iron condor structure on AUR specifically: AUR IV at 59.83% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling AUR iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 17.15% (roughly $1.22 on the underlying). The 28-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated AUR expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AUR should anchor to the underlying notional of $7.09 per share and to the trader's directional view on AUR stock.

AUR iron condor setup

The AUR 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 AUR at $7.09 on that close, the first option leg uses a $7.50 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AUR chain at a 28-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 AUR shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$7.50	$0.25
Buy 1	Call	$8.00	$0.25
Sell 1	Put	$6.50	$0.28
Buy 1	Put	$6.50	$0.28

AUR thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AUR extends from approximately $5.87 on the downside to $8.31 on the upside. A AUR iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when AUR 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 AUR IV rank near 4.37% 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 AUR at 59.83%. As a Technology name, AUR options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AUR-specific events.

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