Earnings Season Has Arrived!


Our long term members know that we like to use few non-directional strategies to play earnings. There are few things we like about those strategies:

  • They are predictable.
  • They are repeatable.
  • They are flexible.
  • They can be used on the same stocks cycle after cycle.

The following article described few stocks that we use over and over again, cycle after cycle. We said "$TSLA, $LNKD, $NFLX, $GOOG: Thank You, See You Next Cycle".

 

Well, the Next Cycle is already here.

 

NFLX is one of those stocks. Here are our results from NFLX in the recent cycles:

 

+10%, +20%, +30%, +16%, +30%, +32%, +18%

 

Another earnings cycle has arrived, and NFLX delivered another nice winner for us. We opened a pre-earnings calendar at average price of $3.50 and exited at average price of $4.55, booking a 30% gain in the process. That marks eighth consecutive NFLX winner in the last few cycles.

 

But some of our members did even better. Here is a screenshot from the forum:

This member booked 47% gain! Here is another one:

And one more:

Those are real fills from real members. Not hypothetical returns. REAL RETURNS FROM REAL TRADERS.

 

Those returns are even more remarkable when you consider the fact that the stock moved 15%+ in the last few days. We played it non-directionally, so we didn't really care which direction it will move, but booking 30-50% gains on a non-directional strategy after such a move is truly amazing.

 

Earnings season is just starting. We are planning to play GOOG, FFIV, CMG, FB, AMZN, MSFT, BABA, LNKD, TSLA and more. Each stock has its own "character", the best time to enter and its unique setup.

 

We already booked 57.6% ROI since the beginning of 2015. We can help you. If you want to learn those profitable options strategies:

  • SPX Options vs. SPY Options: Which Should I Trade?

    Trading options on the S&P 500 is a popular way to make money on the index. There are several ways traders use this index, but two of the most popular are to trade options on SPX or SPY. One key difference between the two is that SPX options are based on the index, while SPY options are based on an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that tracks the index.

  • Yes, We Are Playing Not to Lose!

    There are many trading quotes from different traders/investors, but this one is one of my favorites: “In trading/investing it's not about how much you make, but how much you don't lose" - Bernard Baruch. At SteadyOptions, this has been one of our major goals in the last 12 years.

  • The Impact of Implied Volatility (IV) on Popular Options Trades

    You’ll often read that a given option trade is either vega positive (meaning that IV rising will help it and IV falling will hurt it) or vega negative (meaning IV falling will help and IV rising will hurt).   However, in fact many popular options spreads can be either vega positive or vega negative depending where where the stock price is relative to the spread strikes.

  • Please Follow Me Inside The Insiders

    The greatest joy in investing in options is when you are right on direction. It’s really hard to beat any return that is based on a correct options bet on the direction of a stock, which is why we spend much of our time poring over charts, historical analysis, Elliot waves, RSI and what not.

  • Trading Earnings With Ratio Spread

    A 1x2 ratio spread with call options is created by selling one lower-strike call and buying two higher-strike calls. This strategy can be established for either a net credit or for a net debit, depending on the time to expiration, the percentage distance between the strike prices and the level of volatility.

  • What Is Delta Hedging?

    Delta hedging is an investing strategy that combines the purchase or sale of an option as well as an offsetting transaction in the underlying asset to reduce the risk of a directional move in the price of the option. When a position is delta-neutral, it will not rise or fall in value when the value of the underlying asset stays within certain bounds.
