IVT snapshot
As of August 14, 2026, spot at $33.53, ATM IV 40.00%, IV rank 12.84%, expected move 11.47%. The iron condor on IVT 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 IVT specifically: IVT IV at 40.00% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling IVT iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 11.47% (roughly $3.85 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 IVT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on IVT should anchor to the underlying notional of $33.53 per share and to the trader's directional view on IVT stock.
IVT iron condor setup
The IVT 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 IVT at $33.53 on that close, the first option leg uses a $35.21 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed IVT 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 IVT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 1 | Call | $36.88 | N/A |

IVT thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for IVT extends from approximately $29.68 on the downside to $37.38 on the upside. A IVT iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when IVT 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 IVT IV rank near 12.84% 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 IVT at 40.00%. As a Real Estate name, IVT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to IVT-specific events.
IVT 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. IVT positions also carry Real Estate sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move IVT alongside the broader basket even when IVT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on IVT carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical IVT earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current IVT chain quotes before placing a trade.
