Current CRBP snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $11.11, ATM IV 130.10%, IV rank 38.80%, expected move 37.30%. The iron condor on CRBP 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 CRBP specifically: CRBP IV at 130.10% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a CRBP iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 37.30% (roughly $4.14 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 CRBP expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on CRBP should anchor to the underlying notional of $11.11 per share and to the trader's directional view on CRBP stock.
CRBP iron condor setup
The CRBP 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 CRBP near $11.11, the first option leg uses a $11.67 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed CRBP 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 CRBP shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

CRBP thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for CRBP extends from approximately $6.97 on the downside to $15.25 on the upside. A CRBP iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when CRBP 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 CRBP IV rank near 38.80% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on CRBP should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, CRBP options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to CRBP-specific events.
CRBP 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. CRBP positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move CRBP alongside the broader basket even when CRBP-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on CRBP carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical CRBP earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current CRBP chain quotes before placing a trade.
