Why two RV values? Yang-Zhang RV (15.0%, OHLC-based) captures intraday volatility, while ORATS RV (16.2%, close-to-close) uses only closing prices. For XLRE, YZ is lower — suggesting closing prices reflect more volatility than intraday action. VRP is computed using ORATS RV to match the IV source. Gap: 1.2pp. Full IV Analysis →

Real Estate Select Sector SPDR is trading in a normal volatility regime with an RV ratio of 1.01. The 20-day Yang-Zhang realized vol of 15.0% is roughly in line with the 60-day average of 13.4%, meaning the stock's recent price action matches historical expectations. For a etf - sector stock like XLRE, this is a neutral signal — premium sellers can participate but should be selective with sizing and strike selection.
XLRE has maintained a consistent volatility profile over the past 18 trading days. The RV ratio has held in a range of 1.12 to 1.17, with 0% of days in seller-favorable territory. Stable regimes can persist for weeks in etf - sector stocks, making XLRE a relatively predictable candidate for premium selling strategies during this period.
Based on current realized volatility, traders can expect XLRE to move approximately ±$0.39 (0.9%) per day and ±$0.88 (2.1%) over five trading days. At a stock price of $41.64, these ranges are derived from the Yang-Zhang volatility model which accounts for overnight gaps and intraday range — more accurate than simple close-to-close calculations. Premium sellers typically place short strikes outside these 1-standard-deviation ranges to achieve approximately 68%+ probability of profit.
