Current REGN snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $698.66, ATM IV 36.86%, IV rank 46.63%, expected move 10.57%. The iron condor on REGN 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 28-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on REGN specifically: REGN IV at 36.86% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a REGN iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 10.57% (roughly $73.84 on the underlying). The 28-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated REGN expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on REGN should anchor to the underlying notional of $698.66 per share and to the trader's directional view on REGN stock.
REGN iron condor setup
The REGN 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 REGN near $698.66, the first option leg uses a $730.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed REGN chain at a 28-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 REGN shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Sell 1 | Call | $730.00 | $14.75 |
| Buy 1 | Call | $770.00 | $6.50 |
| Sell 1 | Put | $660.00 | $13.40 |

REGN thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for REGN extends from approximately $624.82 on the downside to $772.50 on the upside. A REGN iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when REGN 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 REGN IV rank near 46.63% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on REGN should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, REGN options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to REGN-specific events.
REGN 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. REGN positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move REGN alongside the broader basket even when REGN-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on REGN carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical REGN earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current REGN chain quotes before placing a trade.
