Current TITN snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $19.57, ATM IV 58.80%, IV rank 7.59%, expected move 16.86%. The iron condor on TITN 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 TITN specifically: TITN IV at 58.80% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling TITN iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 16.86% (roughly $3.30 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 TITN expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TITN should anchor to the underlying notional of $19.57 per share and to the trader's directional view on TITN stock.
TITN iron condor setup
The TITN 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 TITN near $19.57, the first option leg uses a $20.55 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TITN 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 TITN shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

TITN thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for TITN extends from approximately $16.27 on the downside to $22.87 on the upside. A TITN iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when TITN 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 TITN IV rank near 7.59% 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 TITN at 58.80%. As a Industrials name, TITN options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TITN-specific events.
TITN 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. TITN positions also carry Industrials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TITN alongside the broader basket even when TITN-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on TITN carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical TITN earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current TITN chain quotes before placing a trade.
