Current GDYN snapshot
As of June 30, 2026, spot at $5.79, ATM IV 257.80%, IV rank 54.25%, expected move 73.91%. The iron condor on GDYN 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 17-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on GDYN specifically: GDYN IV at 257.80% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a GDYN iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 73.91% (roughly $4.28 on the underlying). The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated GDYN expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on GDYN should anchor to the underlying notional of $5.79 per share and to the trader's directional view on GDYN stock.
GDYN iron condor setup
The GDYN 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 GDYN near $5.79, the first option leg uses a $6.08 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed GDYN chain at a 17-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 GDYN shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

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