BBIO snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $79.78, ATM IV 43.70%, IV rank 7.46%, expected move 12.53%. The iron condor on BBIO 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 35-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on BBIO specifically: BBIO IV at 43.70% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling BBIO iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 12.53% (roughly $10.00 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated BBIO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on BBIO should anchor to the underlying notional of $79.78 per share and to the trader's directional view on BBIO stock.
BBIO iron condor setup
The BBIO 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 BBIO at $79.78 on that close, the first option leg uses a $85.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed BBIO chain at a 35-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 BBIO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Sell 1 | Call | $85.00 | $2.48 |

| Sell 1 | Put | $75.00 | $2.03 |

BBIO thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for BBIO extends from approximately $69.78 on the downside to $89.78 on the upside. A BBIO iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when BBIO 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 BBIO IV rank near 7.46% 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 BBIO at 43.70%. As a Healthcare name, BBIO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to BBIO-specific events.
BBIO 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. BBIO positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move BBIO alongside the broader basket even when BBIO-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on BBIO carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical BBIO earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current BBIO chain quotes before placing a trade.
