| Expiration | IV | Expected move | 1 SD range | Straddle |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oct 2, 20264 days | 32.4% | ±$3.04 (3.4%) | $86.46 to $92.54 | $2.46 |
| Oct 30, 202632 days | 35.4% | ±$9.39 (10.5%) | $80.11 to $98.89 | $7.48 |
| Nov 20, 202653 days | 30.5% | ±$10.41 (11.6%) | $79.09 to $99.91 | $8.30 |
| Dec 18, 202681 days | 32.4% | ±$13.67 (15.3%) | $75.83 to $103.17 | $10.88 |
Each expiration has its own implied volatility, and short-dated IV reacts more to near-term events, so the nearest expiration can differ a lot from the 30-day figure.
