TSLA earnings Wednesday August 03, after the bell. PCLN August 04.

  • TLSA at $230.00.
  • 52-week high $271.00.
  • Earnings Wednesday August 03, after the bell.
  • ATM August 05 230.00 straddle priced at $16.00. Read about ATM straddles here.
  • MM's expect TSLA to close at $214.00 or $246.00 on August 05 based on the price of the ATM 230.00 straddle.
  • I'm bullish so I might buy the August 05 $250.00 call, current ask $1.17.
  • If I make a trade I will update with actual strike and price.
  • Comments welcome.


PCLN reports Thursday August 04, before the bell. PCLN options are too expensive for me to trade during earnings, so I will sit those ones out.

  • Today is the big day.
  • Since PCLN reports Thursday before the bell any earnings related trades will have to be opened today.

TSLA can easily move 20-25 points after earnings, based on their earnings history. Selling strangle only $7 from the stock price is not the best way to trade earnings.
