Live intraday quotes will differ as the chain moves through the trading session.

What is the breakeven for a DRAM iron condor?

The breakeven for the DRAM iron condor priced on this page is roughly $46.83 and $55.69 at expiration, derived from end-of-day chain premiums.

This focus is to provide targeted, large-cap exposure considered critical to powering the use of AI. To pursue its active investment strategy, the fund may hold stocks or derivatives such as swaps or forwards. Portfolio weights are based on a modified market capitalization methodology, subject to a 25% cap on any single company, and reflect the advisers assessment of each companys market and revenue share within the memory sector.

DRAM (Roundhill Memory ETF) trades in the Financial Services sector, specifically Asset Management, with a market capitalization of approximately $2.23B, a beta of 0.00 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 26.14-56.38, average daily share volume of 16.2M, a public-listing history dating back to 2026. These structural characteristics shape how DRAM stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.

A beta of 0.00 indicates DRAM has historically moved less than the broader market, dampening realized volatility and producing tighter expected-move bands per unit of dollar exposure.

What is a iron condor on DRAM?

An iron condor sells a call spread and a put spread at strikes outside spot, collecting net premium that is kept if the underlying stays inside the inner short strikes.

Current DRAM snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $51.16, ATM IV 80.31%, expected move 23.02%. The iron condor on DRAM 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 28-day expiry.

Why this iron condor structure on DRAM specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for DRAM is inferred from ATM IV at 80.31% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 23.02% (roughly $11.78 on the underlying). The 28-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated DRAM expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on DRAM should anchor to the underlying notional of $51.16 per share and to the trader's directional view on DRAM stock.

DRAM iron condor setup

The DRAM 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 DRAM near $51.16, the first option leg uses a $54.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed DRAM chain at a 28-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 DRAM shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$54.00	$3.60
Buy 1	Call	$56.00	$3.03
Sell 1	Put	$48.50	$3.05
Buy 1	Put	$46.00	$1.95

When traders use iron condor on DRAM

Iron condors on DRAM are a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that profits if DRAM stock stays inside the inner short strikes; short strikes typically sit near 1 standard deviation from spot.

DRAM thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for DRAM extends from approximately $39.38 on the downside to $62.94 on the upside. A DRAM iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when DRAM 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, DRAM options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to DRAM-specific events.

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