Historical backtest: how a Iron Butterfly on TIGR would have performed
We approximated a Iron Butterfly on TIGR, entered repeatedly over the past year (93 historical entries, each held to expiration) with Black-Scholes-modelled entry premiums. Here is how that would have played out on real TIGR price history — an educational backtest, not a prediction of future returns.
Approximate: entry premiums are modelled with Black-Scholes from trailing realised volatility, held to expiration and settled against the real historical close. Real fills, implied volatility and slippage differ — treat it as directional context, not exact returns.
Implied volatility
TIGR is currently trading with high implied volatility, which makes its options expensive — and attractive to sell. On the options we scanned that was around 73% implied volatility, and higher implied volatility means richer premiums and wider expected moves.
Options on TIGR currently price in about 73% implied volatility, versus roughly 35% the stock has actually realised over the past month. That makes options relatively expensive — an edge for strategies that sell premium, such as credit spreads and iron condors.
Off that volatility, the options market is pricing a move of about ±$0.93 (±20%) in TIGR by 2026-09-11 — a range of roughly $3.66 to $5.53. Strikes inside that band hold most of the premium and see most of the action.
Across strikes, upside calls on TIGR carry a higher implied volatility than downside puts — demand is tilted to the upside, which favours call spreads or selling cash-secured puts.
TIGR options chain highlights: open interest, volume and skew
The live TIGR options chain shows a put/call open-interest ratio of 1.24 (balanced), with at-the-money implied volatility near 64.3%. Open interest clusters at the $5 call — a common resistance "wall" — and the $4.5 put, a support "wall": the strikes option writers are most exposed to into expiration.
Snapshot of open interest, volume and implied volatility for the nearest scanned expiration — context, not a trading signal.
Liquidity and tradeability
TIGR options are thinly traded, with wide bid-ask spreads around 14.8% near the money that eat into any edge — favour simple single-leg or tight defined-risk trades, and always use limit orders.
Earnings & IV crush
TIGR's next earnings report is due around August 27, 2026. Options that expire after it price in a binary move, so their implied volatility is elevated and usually collapses right after the announcement — an "IV crush". If your expiration falls before this date, the trade sidesteps the event.
With earnings roughly 10 days out, TIGR's 73% implied volatility is inflated by event premium — and it usually collapses the moment results drop ("IV crush"). That rewards defined-risk premium sellers when the move stays muted, and punishes option buyers who paid the inflated price. Keep size small and risk defined through the report.
