My strategy will always be : Only trade after the earnings. I usually don't bet with the earnings as this used to be one of my major weaknesses in trading. Last time, I always tend to buy big before earnings especially on the companies which I am extremely confident with its results. However, throughout my investment journey, I learnt about the importance of "market expectations" and "next quarters forecast".
We need to factor in the current share price before earnings might already factor in especially for the "super impressive" results, as some insiders might always leak the news out. Therefore, sometimes, even if the earnings is extremely good (let's say improve by 100%, doubled), but if it is still below market expectations or the existing share price already been rallied and factored in such earnings expectations, the share price will usually pullback and drop.
Incoming quarters forecast is another key decider. Poor forecast will usually send the stock down regardless good QR.
