Current INGN snapshot
As of June 29, 2026, spot at $6.96, ATM IV 97.70%, IV rank 37.49%, expected move 28.01%. The iron condor on INGN 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 18-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on INGN specifically: INGN IV at 97.70% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a INGN iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 28.01% (roughly $1.95 on the underlying). The 18-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated INGN expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on INGN should anchor to the underlying notional of $6.96 per share and to the trader's directional view on INGN stock.
INGN iron condor setup
The INGN 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 INGN near $6.96, the first option leg uses a $7.31 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed INGN chain at a 18-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 INGN shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

INGN thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for INGN extends from approximately $5.01 on the downside to $8.91 on the upside. A INGN iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when INGN 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 INGN IV rank near 37.49% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on INGN should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, INGN options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to INGN-specific events.
INGN 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. INGN positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move INGN alongside the broader basket even when INGN-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on INGN carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical INGN earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current INGN chain quotes before placing a trade.
