$META RATIO_SPREAD_1X2 261030 CALL 845.0/CALL 850.0$ 1️⃣ Why am I making this trade now? 

META ratio spread for premium collection. 

Buy 1 call $845 strike

Sell 2 calls $850 strike 

Earnings on 4th Nov so the setup expires on 30th Oct to avoid binary outcome that might jeopardise the trade. 

Collect a decent $5.35 premium over 24 days.

The strike of $845 is well above current trade at $742. And is also above expected move of +/- $89 during this period. 

IV is relatively high at 45% and my expected probability of this trade is around 80-90%.


2️⃣ What’s my plan from here?

Take profit when 70-90% of premium collected, 

Or cut loss if hit the strike or 1.5x of premium collected. 

Or take profit/cut loss when trade is less than a week from expiry for risk management

    Pre-earnings premium grab makes sense here. The real risk is that 845 gets tested early and the short 850s start biting before theta does lol

      That’s the risk of the trade I was willing to take 🤞
