INTT snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $14.00, ATM IV 79.30%, IV rank 17.96%, expected move 22.73%. The iron condor on INTT 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 INTT specifically: INTT IV at 79.30% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling INTT iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 22.73% (roughly $3.18 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 INTT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on INTT should anchor to the underlying notional of $14.00 per share and to the trader's directional view on INTT stock.
INTT iron condor setup
The INTT 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 INTT at $14.00 on that close, the first option leg uses a $14.70 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed INTT 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 INTT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

INTT thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for INTT extends from approximately $10.82 on the downside to $17.18 on the upside. A INTT iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when INTT 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 INTT IV rank near 17.96% 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 INTT at 79.30%. As a Technology name, INTT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to INTT-specific events.
INTT 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. INTT positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move INTT alongside the broader basket even when INTT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on INTT carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical INTT earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current INTT chain quotes before placing a trade.
