ERO (Ero Copper Corp.) trades in the Basic Materials sector, specifically Copper, with a market capitalization of approximately $3.03B, a trailing P/E of 7.73, a beta of 1.62 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 20.61-40.83, average daily share volume of 1.4M, a public-listing history dating back to 2017, approximately 4K full-time employees. These structural characteristics shape how ERO stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.

ERO snapshot

As of November 13, 2026, spot at $29.02, ATM IV 59.10%, IV rank 33.39%, expected move 16.94%. The iron condor on ERO below is built from the November 13, 2026 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 ERO specifically: ERO IV at 59.10% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a ERO iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 16.94% (roughly $4.92 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 ERO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on ERO should anchor to the underlying notional of $29.02 per share and to the trader's directional view on ERO stock.

ERO iron condor setup

The ERO iron condor below is built from the November 13, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With ERO at $29.02 on that close, the first option leg uses a $30.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed ERO 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 ERO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Sell 1	Call	$30.00	$1.73
Buy 1	Call	$32.00	$1.10
Sell 1	Put	$28.00	$1.58
Buy 1	Put	$26.00	$0.90

ERO thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for ERO extends from approximately $24.10 on the downside to $33.94 on the upside. A ERO iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when ERO 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 ERO IV rank near 33.39% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on ERO should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Basic Materials name, ERO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to ERO-specific events.

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