Current HIMS snapshot
As of June 30, 2026, spot at $34.24, ATM IV 106.19%, IV rank 67.91%, expected move 30.44%. The iron condor on HIMS 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 31-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on HIMS specifically: HIMS IV at 106.19% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a HIMS iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 30.44% (roughly $10.42 on the underlying). The 31-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated HIMS expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on HIMS should anchor to the underlying notional of $34.24 per share and to the trader's directional view on HIMS stock.
HIMS iron condor setup
The HIMS 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 HIMS near $34.24, the first option leg uses a $36.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed HIMS chain at a 31-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 HIMS shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

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