Current XRAY snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $10.04, ATM IV 48.70%, IV rank 15.93%, expected move 13.96%. The iron condor on XRAY 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 XRAY specifically: XRAY IV at 48.70% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling XRAY iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 13.96% (roughly $1.40 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 XRAY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on XRAY should anchor to the underlying notional of $10.04 per share and to the trader's directional view on XRAY stock.
XRAY iron condor setup
The XRAY 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 XRAY near $10.04, the first option leg uses a $10.54 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed XRAY 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 XRAY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

XRAY thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for XRAY extends from approximately $8.64 on the downside to $11.44 on the upside. A XRAY iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when XRAY 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 XRAY IV rank near 15.93% 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 XRAY at 48.70%. As a Healthcare name, XRAY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to XRAY-specific events.
XRAY 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. XRAY positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move XRAY alongside the broader basket even when XRAY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on XRAY carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical XRAY earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current XRAY chain quotes before placing a trade.
