Current AVT snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $84.23, ATM IV 39.70%, IV rank 8.13%, expected move 11.38%. The iron condor on AVT 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 98-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on AVT specifically: AVT IV at 39.70% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling AVT iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 11.38% (roughly $9.59 on the underlying). The 98-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated AVT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AVT should anchor to the underlying notional of $84.23 per share and to the trader's directional view on AVT stock.
AVT iron condor setup
The AVT 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 AVT near $84.23, the first option leg uses a $90.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AVT chain at a 98-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 AVT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Sell 1 | Call | $90.00 | $4.50 |

| Sell 1 | Put | $80.00 | $4.20 |

AVT thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AVT extends from approximately $74.64 on the downside to $93.82 on the upside. A AVT iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when AVT 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 AVT IV rank near 8.13% 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 AVT at 39.70%. As a Technology name, AVT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AVT-specific events.
AVT 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. AVT positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move AVT alongside the broader basket even when AVT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on AVT carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical AVT earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current AVT chain quotes before placing a trade.
