Current TTGT snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $5.28, ATM IV 197.20%, IV rank 41.59%, expected move 56.54%. The iron condor on TTGT 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 TTGT specifically: TTGT IV at 197.20% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a TTGT iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 56.54% (roughly $2.99 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 TTGT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on TTGT should anchor to the underlying notional of $5.28 per share and to the trader's directional view on TTGT stock.
TTGT iron condor setup
The TTGT 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 TTGT near $5.28, the first option leg uses a $5.54 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed TTGT 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 TTGT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

A TTGT iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when TTGT 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 TTGT IV rank near 41.59% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on TTGT should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Communication Services name, TTGT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to TTGT-specific events.
TTGT 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. TTGT positions also carry Communication Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move TTGT alongside the broader basket even when TTGT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on TTGT carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical TTGT earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current TTGT chain quotes before placing a trade.
