Trade idea

MU earnings trade

The speaker is adjusting the strike prices for a Micron (MU) earnings trade, expecting a move of around 10 to 12%. The speaker believes that the increased volatility today makes earnings trades more favorable, as the pop in volatility can lead to better outcomes. The trade is based on the expectation that the stock will move up by the expected amount, with the strike prices adjusted to reflect this. The risks include the possibility that the stock does not move as expected, which could result in a loss.

Trade idea

AAPL Earnings trade

The speaker is considering selling puts against Apple's earnings, leaning towards selling the 57.5 puts with one day to expiration. The rationale is that the VIX is high, and selling premium early in the day is not ideal. The trade is expected to benefit from a potential rally, but the speaker is cautious due to the volatility and the need to avoid market shocks.

Trade idea

NKE earnings trade

The speaker suggests that earnings trades are more profitable when volatility is higher and there is a decent IVR (Implied Volatility Ratio). This implies that traders should look for opportunities during periods of increased market volatility, particularly around earnings announcements, as these can provide more significant price movements and thus better trading opportunities.
