Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) operates in the Information Technology sector and has actively traded listed options. The 25-delta put IV reads 49.0% versus 25-delta call IV at 49.0%, a difference of 0.0pp. The chain is currently showing balanced skew (put and call IV close together), which describes how implied volatility distributes across strikes rather than where the underlying is heading. PLTR strategy builder.
PLTR skew reads as flat — 25Δ put IV (49.0%) and 25Δ call IV (49.0%) sit close together; the model classifies this as a balanced downside-vs-upside-demand regime.
Volatility skew measures how the options market prices downside protection (puts) compared to upside (calls). When 25-delta puts cost more than 25-delta calls, the market is paying a premium for hedging — a signal worth understanding before selling premium.
Skew is not a direction predictor. Steep skew can persist for months in calm markets, and flat skew can occur right before a crash. Combine with VRP and IV Rank for context.

Skew shows how much more the options market is paying for downside protection (puts) vs upside (calls). When 25Δ puts cost meaningfully more than 25Δ calls, hedging demand is elevated.
Steep put skew shifts the model to a higher tail-risk regime where naked positions carry more drawdown sensitivity than defined-risk structures.
