Current PROF snapshot
As of May 14, 2026, spot at $7.20, ATM IV 121.00%, IV rank 28.53%, expected move 34.69%. The iron condor on PROF 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 35-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on PROF specifically: PROF IV at 121.00% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling PROF iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 34.69% (roughly $2.50 on the underlying). The 35-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated PROF expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on PROF should anchor to the underlying notional of $7.20 per share and to the trader's directional view on PROF stock.
PROF iron condor setup
The PROF 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 PROF near $7.20, the first option leg uses a $7.56 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed PROF chain at a 35-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 PROF shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 1 | Call | $7.92 | N/A |
| Sell 1 | Put | $6.84 | N/A |

PROF thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for PROF extends from approximately $4.70 on the downside to $9.70 on the upside. A PROF iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when PROF 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 PROF IV rank near 28.53% 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 PROF at 121.00%. As a Healthcare name, PROF options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to PROF-specific events.
PROF 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. PROF positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move PROF alongside the broader basket even when PROF-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on PROF carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical PROF earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current PROF chain quotes before placing a trade.
