Current THO snapshot
As of June 30, 2026, spot at $75.02, ATM IV 43.30%, IV rank 33.67%, expected move 12.41%. The iron condor on THO 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 80-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on THO specifically: THO IV at 43.30% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a THO iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 12.41% (roughly $9.31 on the underlying). The 80-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated THO expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on THO should anchor to the underlying notional of $75.02 per share and to the trader's directional view on THO stock.
THO iron condor setup
The THO 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 THO near $75.02, the first option leg uses a $80.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed THO chain at a 80-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 THO shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

THO thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for THO extends from approximately $65.71 on the downside to $84.33 on the upside. A THO iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when THO 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 THO IV rank near 33.67% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on THO should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Consumer Cyclical name, THO options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to THO-specific events.
THO 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. THO positions also carry Consumer Cyclical sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move THO alongside the broader basket even when THO-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on THO carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical THO earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current THO chain quotes before placing a trade.
