DBVT snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $13.96, ATM IV 153.30%, IV rank 57.50%, expected move 43.95%. The iron condor on DBVT 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 DBVT specifically: DBVT IV at 153.30% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a DBVT iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 43.95% (roughly $6.14 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 DBVT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on DBVT should anchor to the underlying notional of $13.96 per share and to the trader's directional view on DBVT stock.
DBVT iron condor setup
The DBVT 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 DBVT at $13.96 on that close, the first option leg uses a $14.66 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed DBVT 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 DBVT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

DBVT thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for DBVT extends from approximately $7.82 on the downside to $20.10 on the upside. A DBVT iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when DBVT 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 DBVT IV rank near 57.50% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on DBVT should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, DBVT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to DBVT-specific events.
DBVT 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. DBVT positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move DBVT alongside the broader basket even when DBVT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on DBVT carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical DBVT earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current DBVT chain quotes before placing a trade.
