FRVO snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $19.94, ATM IV 97.80%, expected move 28.04%. The iron condor on FRVO 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 FRVO specifically: IV rank is unavailable in the current snapshot, so regime-based timing for FRVO is inferred from ATM IV at 97.80% alone, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 28.04% (roughly $5.59 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 FRVO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on FRVO should anchor to the underlying notional of $19.94 per share and to the trader's directional view on FRVO stock.
FRVO iron condor setup
The FRVO 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 FRVO at $19.94 on that close, the first option leg uses a $20.94 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed FRVO 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 FRVO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

FRVO thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for FRVO extends from approximately $14.35 on the downside to $25.53 on the upside. A FRVO iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when FRVO 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 Utilities name, FRVO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to FRVO-specific events.
FRVO 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. FRVO positions also carry Utilities sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move FRVO alongside the broader basket even when FRVO-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on FRVO carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical FRVO earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing.
