Current OFIX snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $11.99, ATM IV 201.20%, IV rank 45.13%, expected move 57.68%. The iron condor on OFIX 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 OFIX specifically: OFIX IV at 201.20% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a OFIX iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 57.68% (roughly $6.92 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 OFIX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on OFIX should anchor to the underlying notional of $11.99 per share and to the trader's directional view on OFIX stock.
OFIX iron condor setup
The OFIX 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 OFIX near $11.99, the first option leg uses a $12.59 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed OFIX 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 OFIX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

OFIX thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for OFIX extends from approximately $5.07 on the downside to $18.91 on the upside. A OFIX iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when OFIX 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 OFIX IV rank near 45.13% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on OFIX should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, OFIX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to OFIX-specific events.
OFIX 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. OFIX positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move OFIX alongside the broader basket even when OFIX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on OFIX carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical OFIX earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current OFIX chain quotes before placing a trade.
