FAC snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $5.22, ATM IV 114.70%, expected move 32.88%. The iron condor on FAC 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 FAC specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for FAC is inferred from ATM IV at 114.70% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 32.88% (roughly $1.72 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 FAC expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on FAC should anchor to the underlying notional of $5.22 per share and to the trader's directional view on FAC stock.
FAC iron condor setup
The FAC 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 FAC at $5.22 on that close, the first option leg uses a $5.48 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed FAC 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 FAC shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

FAC thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for FAC extends from approximately $3.50 on the downside to $6.94 on the upside. A FAC iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when FAC 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 Industrials name, FAC options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to FAC-specific events.
FAC 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. FAC positions also carry Industrials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move FAC alongside the broader basket even when FAC-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on FAC carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical FAC earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current FAC chain quotes before placing a trade.
