Current XRX snapshot
As of June 30, 2026, spot at $3.13, ATM IV 106.60%, IV rank 29.42%, expected move 30.56%. The iron condor on XRX 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 17-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on XRX specifically: XRX IV at 106.60% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which means a premium-selling XRX iron condor collects less credit per unit of strike-width risk, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 30.56% (roughly $0.96 on the underlying). The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated XRX expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on XRX should anchor to the underlying notional of $3.13 per share and to the trader's directional view on XRX stock.
XRX iron condor setup
The XRX 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 XRX near $3.13, the first option leg uses a $3.29 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed XRX chain at a 17-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 XRX shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 1 | Call | $3.44 | N/A |
| Sell 1 | Put | $2.97 | N/A |

XRX thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for XRX extends from approximately $2.17 on the downside to $4.09 on the upside. A XRX iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when XRX 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 XRX IV rank near 29.42% 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 XRX at 106.60%. As a Industrials name, XRX options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to XRX-specific events.
XRX 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. XRX positions also carry Industrials sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move XRX alongside the broader basket even when XRX-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on XRX carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical XRX earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current XRX chain quotes before placing a trade.
