CABA snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $2.75, ATM IV 198.80%, IV rank 57.96%, expected move 56.99%. The iron condor on CABA below is built from the 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 CABA specifically: CABA IV at 198.80% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a CABA iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 56.99% (roughly $1.57 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 CABA expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on CABA should anchor to the underlying notional of $2.75 per share and to the trader's directional view on CABA stock.
CABA iron condor setup
The CABA 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 CABA at $2.75 on that close, the first option leg uses a $2.89 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed CABA 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 CABA shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

CABA thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for CABA extends from approximately $1.18 on the downside to $4.32 on the upside. A CABA iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when CABA 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 CABA IV rank near 57.96% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on CABA should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, CABA options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to CABA-specific events.
CABA 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. CABA positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move CABA alongside the broader basket even when CABA-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on CABA carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical CABA earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current CABA chain quotes before placing a trade.
