Key insights
- The post outlines potential long call option strategies for the upcoming earnings week, focusing on companies with strong historical market responses to earnings releases. The strategy emphasizes in-the-money or near-the-money calls to mitigate IV crush. While specific stock picks are mentioned, the overall impact on the US market is limited to short-term, stock-specific price movements.

Based on the highest earnings (AND BEST MARKET RESPONSE) in the last three earnings… Who are you betting the house on each day, in a long call??
My own “don’t be dumb” structure: Buying slightly ITM or near, not OTM, to try a mitigate any IV crush immediately after earnings. 😖😣
My long calls on earnings, tell me yours or why I’m wrong:
Monday: $VS with a backup $CLS
Tuesday: $V primary pick with a wildcard $HOOD and a better choice $BE
Wednesday: HELL of a day! In order

$MSFT

$META

$AMZN
Thursday: $MA and expensive backup consideration $LLY
Friday: $LIN and $XOM
Looking forward
