COPZ snapshot

As of September 29, 2026, spot at $15.57, ATM IV 88.20%, expected move 25.29%. The iron condor on COPZ below is built from the September 29, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 17-day expiry.

The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated COPZ expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay.

COPZ iron condor setup

The COPZ iron condor below is built from the September 29, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With COPZ at $15.57 on that close, the first option leg uses a $16.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed COPZ chain at a 17-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 COPZ shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$16.00	$1.08
Buy 1	Call	$17.00	$0.71
Sell 1	Put	$15.00	$0.86
Buy 1	Put	$14.00	$0.49

COPZ thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for COPZ extends from approximately $11.63 on the downside to $19.51 on the upside. A COPZ iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when COPZ 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. As a Financial Services name, COPZ options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to COPZ-specific events.

COPZ 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. COPZ positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move COPZ alongside the broader basket even when COPZ-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on COPZ carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical COPZ earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current COPZ chain quotes before placing a trade.
