Current AVEX snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $24.89, ATM IV 111.30%, expected move 31.91%. The iron condor on AVEX 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 AVEX specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for AVEX is inferred from ATM IV at 111.30% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 31.91% (roughly $7.94 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 AVEX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AVEX should anchor to the underlying notional of $24.89 per share and to the trader's directional view on AVEX stock.
AVEX iron condor setup
The AVEX 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 AVEX near $24.89, the first option leg uses a $26.13 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AVEX 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 AVEX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

AVEX thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AVEX extends from approximately $16.95 on the downside to $32.83 on the upside. A AVEX iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when AVEX 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. As a Industrials name, AVEX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AVEX-specific events.
AVEX 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. AVEX positions also carry Industrials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move AVEX alongside the broader basket even when AVEX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on AVEX carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical AVEX earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current AVEX chain quotes before placing a trade.
