GOOG earnings this Thursday, Calls or Puts?

Quote from uninvited_guest:

Where do you get the option quotes at this time? Or are you taking the GOOG stock price in AH and subtracting the option strike price?

I guess this would be accurate since they expire tomorow and have no time value left.

right , no time or vols matters. Its very simple : if GOOG goes up (or down) by a point , I am losing on short , but gaining the same point on the call and vice versa, so its always stays 17 points .... unless it will go below 310 ( then I will make more)

Quote from IV_Trader:

very , very low IV before report , maybe they betting on non-event here. Adjusted ATM (310) straddle is only 12$ . That's represents only 3.8% from nominal , the lower I ever saw on GOOG before report. We shall see

I'm wondering how much money some MM lost on this trade. How this 'delta neutral options hedge via stock" strategy working for them now , ah ?

You're like a "Chatty Cathy" doll, pulling your own cord. Dude, give the dire predictions a rest. You're already screwed on your $324 short.

GOOG was great at $100.00, even the $85.00 IPO was considered high.
