TD (The Toronto-Dominion Bank) trades in the Financial Services sector, specifically Banks - Diversified, with a market capitalization of approximately $180.00B, a trailing P/E of 11.27, a beta of 0.87 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 64.12-109.22, average daily share volume of 2.5M, a public-listing history dating back to 1996, approximately 100K full-time employees. These structural characteristics shape how TD stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.
A beta of 0.87 places TD roughly in line with broader market moves, so the strategy payoff and realized volatility track the index-equivalent baseline. The trailing P/E of 11.27 is on the value side, where IV often compresses outside event windows because forward growth expectations are already discounted into the share price. TD pays a dividend, which adjusts put-call parity and shifts the ex-dividend pricing across the listed chain.
What is a iron condor on TD?

Current TD snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $107.04, ATM IV 22.60%, IV rank 11.49%, expected move 6.48%. The iron condor on TD 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 TD specifically: TD IV at 22.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling TD iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 6.48% (roughly $6.94 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 TD expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TD should anchor to the underlying notional of $107.04 per share and to the trader's directional view on TD stock.
TD iron condor setup
The TD 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 TD near $107.04, the first option leg uses a $110.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TD 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 TD shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).
| Action | Type | Strike / Basis | Premium (est) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sell 1 | Call | $110.00 | $1.50 |
| Buy 1 | Call | $120.00 | $0.07 |
| Sell 1 | Put | $100.00 | $0.75 |
| Buy 1 | Put | $97.50 | $0.50 |

TD thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TD extends from approximately $100.10 on the downside to $113.98 on the upside. A TD iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when TD 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 TD IV rank near 11.49% 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 TD at 22.60%. As a Financial Services name, TD options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TD-specific events.
TD 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. TD positions also carry Financial Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TD alongside the broader basket even when TD-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on TD carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical TD earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current TD chain quotes before placing a trade.
