Current BOKF snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $126.06, ATM IV 25.70%, IV rank 1.60%, expected move 7.37%. The iron condor on BOKF 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 BOKF specifically: BOKF IV at 25.70% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling BOKF iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 7.37% (roughly $9.29 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 BOKF expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on BOKF should anchor to the underlying notional of $126.06 per share and to the trader's directional view on BOKF stock.
BOKF iron condor setup
The BOKF 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 BOKF near $126.06, the first option leg uses a $130.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed BOKF 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 BOKF shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sell 1 | Call | $130.00 | $1.92 |

| Sell 1 | Put | $120.00 | $1.40 |

BOKF thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for BOKF extends from approximately $116.77 on the downside to $135.35 on the upside. A BOKF iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when BOKF 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 BOKF IV rank near 1.60% 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 BOKF at 25.70%. As a Financial Services name, BOKF options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to BOKF-specific events.
BOKF 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. BOKF positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move BOKF alongside the broader basket even when BOKF-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on BOKF carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical BOKF earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current BOKF chain quotes before placing a trade.
