Current IIPR snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $54.23, ATM IV 38.60%, IV rank 5.60%, expected move 11.07%. The iron condor on IIPR 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 34-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on IIPR specifically: IIPR IV at 38.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling IIPR iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 11.07% (roughly $6.00 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated IIPR expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on IIPR should anchor to the underlying notional of $54.23 per share and to the trader's directional view on IIPR stock.
IIPR iron condor setup
The IIPR 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 IIPR near $54.23, the first option leg uses a $56.94 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed IIPR chain at a 34-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 IIPR shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

IIPR thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for IIPR extends from approximately $48.23 on the downside to $60.23 on the upside. A IIPR iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when IIPR 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 IIPR IV rank near 5.60% sits in the lower third of its 1-year distribution, where IV often re-expands toward the mean; this favors premium-buying structures and disadvantages premium-selling structures on IIPR at 38.60%. As a Real Estate name, IIPR options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to IIPR-specific events.
IIPR 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. IIPR positions also carry Real Estate sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move IIPR alongside the broader basket even when IIPR-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on IIPR carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical IIPR earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current IIPR chain quotes before placing a trade.
