Is it risky to sell options on RTX Corp (RTX) right now?

Over a 4-week expiry window, RTX Corp (RTX) scores 29 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (LOW). That score is driven by an upcoming earnings report, 2 recent news items and 10 active legal filings falling inside the 4-week window. A LOW score (under 45) means the scan found no dated catalyst for RTX inside the window. Read it as a clean calendar rather than a safe stock — surprises are by definition unscheduled.

RTX shows an IV Rank of 93 — implied volatility is near the top of its own one-year range, so RTX options are historically expensive, which favours premium-selling strategies, with a current implied volatility of about 34%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on RTX.

The 2026-10-20 earnings report sits inside a standard monthly expiry for RTX, so implied volatility should stay bid into the date and drop sharply once it passes.

RTX Corp (RTX) current implied volatility and IV Rank

RTX's IV Rank stands at 93 right now with implied volatility around 34%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 29/100. That's high — options are expensive relative to the past year, which favours premium-selling strategies such as credit spreads, iron condors and covered calls, provided no binary catalyst is working against you.

RTX Corp (RTX) next earnings date — 2026-10-20

The next RTX report lands on 2026-10-20 — about 43 days away — inside the window a typical monthly option would span. RTX's IV Rank is currently 93. That matters more than any other single date on the calendar: the stock can gap overnight on the print, and any premium you collect now is partly payment for carrying that gap. Sellers who want the volatility crush without the gap generally choose an expiry that ends before the report.
