Is it risky to sell options on HOME DEPOT, INC. (HD) right now?
Over a 4-week expiry window, HOME DEPOT, INC. (HD) scores 86 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH). The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 1 recent news item and 10 active legal filings within the 4-week window. A HIGH reading (70+) means HD has a dated event inside the window, so an option sold here carries gap risk that time decay alone will not pay for. The score ranks event exposure, not the likely direction of the move.
HD shows an IV Rank of 71 — implied volatility is near the top of its own one-year range, so HD options are historically expensive, which favours premium-selling strategies, with a current implied volatility of about 30%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on HD.
HD is scheduled to report earnings on 2026-11-17, which falls inside a typical monthly options expiry — expect elevated implied volatility into the event and an IV crush afterward.
HOME DEPOT, INC. (HD) current implied volatility and IV Rank
HD's IV Rank stands at 71 right now with implied volatility around 30%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 86/100. That sits near the top of its own 12-month range, so the chain is pricing richly. Sellers are being paid well here — but rich premium and a scheduled event usually arrive together, so check the catalyst list before writing anything.
IV Rank is an index, not a percentage — it says where HD's implied volatility sits inside its own 1-year range. How to read IV Rank →
HOME DEPOT, INC. (HD) next earnings date — 2026-11-17
HOME DEPOT, INC. (HD) is scheduled to report on 2026-11-17 — about 27 days away, so a standard expiry would carry straight through it. HD's IV Rank is currently 71.
