Current MYRG snapshot

As of June 29, 2026, spot at $499.00, ATM IV 56.90%, IV rank 65.74%, expected move 16.31%. The iron condor on MYRG 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 MYRG specifically: MYRG IV at 56.90% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a MYRG iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 16.31% (roughly $81.40 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 MYRG expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on MYRG should anchor to the underlying notional of $499.00 per share and to the trader's directional view on MYRG stock.

MYRG iron condor setup

The MYRG 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 MYRG near $499.00, the first option leg uses a $520.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed MYRG 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 MYRG shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

MYRG thesis for this iron condor

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for MYRG extends from approximately $417.60 on the downside to $580.40 on the upside. A MYRG iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when MYRG 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 MYRG IV rank near 65.74% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on MYRG should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Industrials name, MYRG options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to MYRG-specific events.

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