Current OHI snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $47.30, ATM IV 20.60%, IV rank 47.85%, expected move 5.91%. The iron condor on OHI 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 OHI specifically: OHI IV at 20.60% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a OHI iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 5.91% (roughly $2.79 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 OHI expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on OHI should anchor to the underlying notional of $47.30 per share and to the trader's directional view on OHI stock.
OHI iron condor setup
The OHI 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 OHI near $47.30, the first option leg uses a $50.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed OHI 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 OHI shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

OHI thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for OHI extends from approximately $44.51 on the downside to $50.09 on the upside. A OHI iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when OHI 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 OHI IV rank near 47.85% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on OHI should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Real Estate name, OHI options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to OHI-specific events.
OHI 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. OHI positions also carry Real Estate sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move OHI alongside the broader basket even when OHI-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on OHI carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical OHI earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current OHI chain quotes before placing a trade.
