MBLY snapshot

As of August 14, 2026, spot at $8.97, ATM IV 53.68%, IV rank 15.56%, expected move 15.39%. The iron condor on MBLY below is built from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 28-day expiry.

Why this iron condor structure on MBLY specifically: MBLY IV at 53.68% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling MBLY iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 15.39% (roughly $1.38 on the underlying). The 28-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated MBLY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on MBLY should anchor to the underlying notional of $8.97 per share and to the trader's directional view on MBLY stock.

MBLY iron condor setup

The MBLY iron condor below is built from the August 14, 2026 end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With MBLY at $8.97 on that close, the first option leg uses a $9.50 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed MBLY chain at a 28-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 MBLY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

MBLY thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for MBLY extends from approximately $7.59 on the downside to $10.35 on the upside. A MBLY iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when MBLY 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 MBLY IV rank near 15.56% 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 MBLY at 53.68%. As a Consumer Cyclical name, MBLY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to MBLY-specific events.

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