Is it risky to sell options on Diamondback Energy, Inc. (FANG) right now?
Diamondback Energy, Inc. (FANG) currently scores 89 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH) over a 4-week expiry window. What pushes it there: an upcoming earnings report, 9 recent news items and 10 active legal filings, all landing inside the 4-week window. On TickerRisk's scale 70 and above is HIGH, so a known event is scheduled inside this window — selling premium on FANG here is a bet on that event rather than on time decay. The score measures scheduled event exposure, not which way the stock will move.
FANG shows an IV Rank of 100 — implied volatility is near the top of its own one-year range, so FANG options are historically expensive, which favours premium-selling strategies, with a current implied volatility of about 50%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on FANG.
FANG reports on 2026-08-03. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.
