Current LFMD snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $4.37, ATM IV 83.70%, IV rank 35.13%, expected move 24.00%. The iron condor on LFMD 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 LFMD specifically: LFMD IV at 83.70% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a LFMD iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 24.00% (roughly $1.05 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 LFMD expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on LFMD should anchor to the underlying notional of $4.37 per share and to the trader's directional view on LFMD stock.
LFMD iron condor setup
The LFMD 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 LFMD near $4.37, the first option leg uses a $4.59 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed LFMD 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 LFMD shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

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