Current REKR snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $0.78, ATM IV 205.10%, IV rank 72.99%, expected move 17.50%. The iron condor on REKR 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 REKR specifically: REKR IV at 205.10% is rich versus its 1-year range, which favors premium-selling structures like a REKR iron condor, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 17.50% (roughly $0.14 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 REKR expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on REKR should anchor to the underlying notional of $0.78 per share and to the trader's directional view on REKR stock.
REKR iron condor setup
The REKR 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 REKR near $0.78, the first option leg uses a $0.82 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed REKR 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 REKR shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

REKR thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for REKR extends from approximately $0.64 on the downside to $0.92 on the upside. A REKR iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when REKR 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 REKR IV rank near 72.99% sits in the upper third of its 1-year distribution, which historically reverts; this raises the bar for premium-buying structures and lowers it for premium-selling structures on REKR at 205.10%. As a Technology name, REKR options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to REKR-specific events.
REKR 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. REKR positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move REKR alongside the broader basket even when REKR-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on REKR carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical REKR earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current REKR chain quotes before placing a trade.
