Current RANI snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $1.10, ATM IV 203.00%, IV rank 42.74%, expected move 58.20%. The iron condor on RANI 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 RANI specifically: RANI IV at 203.00% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a RANI iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 58.20% (roughly $0.64 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 RANI expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on RANI should anchor to the underlying notional of $1.10 per share and to the trader's directional view on RANI stock.
RANI iron condor setup
The RANI 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 RANI near $1.10, the first option leg uses a $1.16 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed RANI 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 RANI shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 1 | Call | $1.21 | N/A |
| Sell 1 | Put | $1.05 | N/A |

RANI thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for RANI extends from approximately $0.46 on the downside to $1.74 on the upside. A RANI iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when RANI 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 RANI IV rank near 42.74% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on RANI should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, RANI options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to RANI-specific events.
RANI 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. RANI positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move RANI alongside the broader basket even when RANI-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on RANI carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical RANI earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current RANI chain quotes before placing a trade.
