Current TFPM snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $31.93, ATM IV 38.60%, IV rank 6.71%, expected move 11.07%. The iron condor on TFPM 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 TFPM specifically: TFPM IV at 38.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling TFPM iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 11.07% (roughly $3.53 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 TFPM expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TFPM should anchor to the underlying notional of $31.93 per share and to the trader's directional view on TFPM stock.
TFPM iron condor setup
The TFPM 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 TFPM near $31.93, the first option leg uses a $33.53 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TFPM 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 TFPM shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

TFPM thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TFPM extends from approximately $28.40 on the downside to $35.46 on the upside. A TFPM iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when TFPM 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 TFPM IV rank near 6.71% 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 TFPM at 38.60%. As a Basic Materials name, TFPM options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TFPM-specific events.
TFPM 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. TFPM positions also carry Basic Materials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TFPM alongside the broader basket even when TFPM-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on TFPM carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical TFPM earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current TFPM chain quotes before placing a trade.
