Current AXGN snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $40.73, ATM IV 49.90%, IV rank 10.82%, expected move 14.31%. The iron condor on AXGN 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 AXGN specifically: AXGN IV at 49.90% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling AXGN iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 14.31% (roughly $5.83 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 AXGN expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on AXGN should anchor to the underlying notional of $40.73 per share and to the trader's directional view on AXGN stock.
AXGN iron condor setup
The AXGN 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 AXGN near $40.73, the first option leg uses a $42.77 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed AXGN 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 AXGN shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

AXGN thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for AXGN extends from approximately $34.90 on the downside to $46.56 on the upside. A AXGN iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when AXGN 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 AXGN IV rank near 10.82% 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 AXGN at 49.90%. As a Healthcare name, AXGN options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to AXGN-specific events.
AXGN 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. AXGN positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move AXGN alongside the broader basket even when AXGN-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on AXGN carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical AXGN earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current AXGN chain quotes before placing a trade.
