How to Profit from IV Crush in Earnings Season?

During earnings season, IV Crush refers to the sharp decline in implied volatility (IV) after a company's earnings report. Before earnings, IV rises due to uncertainty about the outcome, causing option prices to increase. After the earnings release, this uncertainty dissipates, leading to a rapid drop in IV. This decline impacts options prices, often causing them to decrease even if the stock price moves favorably. ----------------- How to take advantage of IV crush in earnings season?

May Volatility Expected to Subside, Institutions Position for Longer-Term Downside

The surprisingly cooler U.S. April jobs report stoked hopes for an earlier start to Fed rate cuts, sending the VIX fear gauge to a one-month low and pushing Treasury yields lower. Apple rallied nearly 6%, leading tech stocks higher.Options market data suggested expectations for reduced volatility in the S&P 500 near-term, with a sideways bias this week and potential for the index to finish Friday below 509.

Institutional Strategies for This Week: ITM Straddles with Limited Leverage and Risk Control

Impacted by last week's plunge, tech earnings this week, even with robust numbers, may not see significant rallies and could potentially decline further. As a result, large options orders for tech stocks appear to have turned quite conservative, with institutions starting to employ in-the-money option combinations to reduce costs and control risks. This reflects the market's skepticism about the sustainability of the current market rebound. $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ I believe META will remain the strongest performer this earnings season due to its monopolistic advantages. However, expectations should not be set too high, as the previous sell-off has made $525 a minor resistance level, making a repeat of last quarter's 20% surge unrealistic. No

Elon Musk's Travel Plans Leaked, Bulls Quietly Buy Huge Call Options Betting on $250!

TL;DR: A mysterious institution is bullish on Tesla, expecting the stock price to explore $210 in June and return above the year's high of $250 by August.On the afternoon of April 28th, a sudden news report revealed that Elon Musk had been invited to visit China. The main purpose is to discuss the deployment of Tesla's self-driving technology in the Chinese market. Although there is no specific timeline, judging from official Weibo statements and the Tesla app's purchase page descriptions, cooperation between the two parties seems highly likely.On Monday, Tesla finally reversed its sluggish performance this year, with its pre-market stock price surging 12%, showing strong signs of a trend reversal.

I had been buying $Sea Ltd(SE)$ since it dropping. I have faith and confidence in this company. The 3 business models for gaming, e-commerce and digital banking are making profit now. Therefore, I do not see why the stock price will not be going up. You must keep for long term and you can see the price shot to the moon. None of its competition is new. SEA is the dominant player in its markets, of course it won't grow as fast as someone just starting out and burning billions! SEA has challenges, certainly, will require patience no doubt, but as a long term perspective, I don't see how not to be long on SEA. I will keep buying. Great long opportunity.

This week, the decisive battle for NVIDIA revolves around $800

After examining Friday's new options positions, I feel there's no need to wait until Monday's market close. I can assert that this week, the battle for NVIDIA's stock price will revolve around the $800 level.Specifically, I'm optimistic that NVIDIA will be able to maintain a price above $800 this week, although upside may be capped around the $840 level.Let me first share the overall picture of NVIDIA's options. Although some might regret missing last week's plunge, there's no need to worry, as the next major options expiration event is on May 17th, when the monthly options for May expire, with a significant number of open interest contracts. However, the specific dynamics will depend on the price movement preferences in May, for which I'll conduct a thorough analysis as we approach that d

Little Chance of Breaking 170, but Tesla's Friday Action is Worth a Shot

In summary: Tesla's stock price is likely to settle around $160 this week, but there is a small probability of a gamma squeeze on call options, pushing the price up to $170.After its earnings report, $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ rebounded 11%, essentially just recouping last week's losses. Apart from "killing" the shorts, there seems to be no other substantial impact - it was just noise.The short-sellers were hit hard, with the effect being significant.

The recent drop in Tesla Motors' (TSLA) stock price following a Q1 delivery miss and a sustained decline below its 200-day moving average raises questions about the company's future prospects. Investors' pessimism about Tesla's future trend, with some predicting a further decline to $120 or $110, contrasts with ARK ETFs' Cathie Wood, who recently added a significant number of Tesla shares to her portfolio. Here is my view on how to take advantage of implied volatility (IV) crush during the earnings season, as well as whether to bottom-fish Tesla stock at the current or lower levels: Understand IV Crush: Implied volatility (IV) often spikes before earnings announcements due to the uncertainty around potential stock price movement.

what's IV crush and how to take advantage of it

**Understanding IV Crush and Strategies to Capitalize on It** In the world of options trading, few terms are as critical to understand as "IV Crush." IV, or Implied Volatility, is a metric that reflects the market's forecast of a likely movement in a security's price. An IV Crush occurs when there's a sharp decline in implied volatility, which typically happens after a significant event like an earnings report. This sudden drop can significantly affect the extrinsic value of options contracts, often to the detriment of uninformed traders¹. **What Causes an IV Crush?** An IV Crush is usually event-driven. Before a major event, there's a lot of uncertainty about the future price of a stock, which inflates the option premiums due to higher implied volatility. Once the event passes and the unc
