Current SEER snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $1.71, ATM IV 21.70%, IV rank 0.58%, expected move 6.22%. The iron condor on SEER 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 SEER specifically: SEER IV at 21.70% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling SEER iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 6.22% (roughly $0.11 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 SEER expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on SEER should anchor to the underlying notional of $1.71 per share and to the trader's directional view on SEER stock.
SEER iron condor setup
The SEER 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 SEER near $1.71, the first option leg uses a $1.80 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed SEER 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 SEER shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 1 | Call | $1.88 | N/A |
| Sell 1 | Put | $1.62 | N/A |
| Buy 1 | Put | $1.54 | N/A |

SEER thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for SEER extends from approximately $1.60 on the downside to $1.82 on the upside. A SEER iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when SEER 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 SEER IV rank near 0.58% 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 SEER at 21.70%. As a Healthcare name, SEER options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to SEER-specific events.
SEER 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. SEER positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move SEER alongside the broader basket even when SEER-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on SEER carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical SEER earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current SEER chain quotes before placing a trade.
