Here's a 12 quarter history of earnings. Average move 11.4%. When those green and red dots are outside the shaded implied moves the straddles were profitable, about 6/12 times.

I closed my position at 7.5% Monday or last Friday.

Was tempting to keep it and wait for 8.5-9.0 and I am glad I didn't!!

I think at 9% the R/R would be solid...but NEVER at 6%!

I don’t follow. Were you short or long the earnings vols

I see how this can be confusing, my bad. I was long (as always) pre report vola rump and was planning to exist before the report (as I almost always do). Had a good profit and existed few days before report.

I was lucky not to hold it in the last 2 days before the report when vols crashed.

Now ideally, I should hold it into the report :), but it's simple not my game.
 
Movers keep on moving...

SNAP (no position): down 30% after hours.
FTNT (no position): up 15%

Let's see what RBLX (closed with profit on vols rump and scalping) does tomorrow morning.
