DKNG just beat earnings!

Having picked up a small number of calls as an earnings play based on the underlying financials of the asset, their market dominance, and the strong technicals provided on the chart, it seems evident that DKNG as a company is poised to make a run.

Short-term / scalp opportunity:
It will likely gap-fade the open first, so I would watch Friday trading hours closely. If the gap-fade happens, traders should look to go long when the fade pattern completes. Call options with 5-10 days expiry in the $22-23-24-25 strike ranges would be an excellent way to leverage this, depending on risk tolerance and position size.

Medium-term / swing trade opportunity
There is some resistance around the $25 mark, so this is the level to watch. Assuming this level is broken, traders should go long. Aggressive swing-traders could take position as early as today, but more risk-averse traders should look to take position upon break of this level which confirms the pattern illustrated here.

Long-term investment opportunity
While DKNG does not pay dividends, the chart shows that it is poised to make a significant run. Investors and other long-term traders should look to enter this position as it has the potential to return over 100% on the asset.
Trade active:
Sold my calls at open, bought $25 May 19 strikes mark 0.70 at 23.50
Trade closed: target reached:
Closed 25 calls once they went ITM, mark 1.05 profit 50%. Not bad for an hours worth of trading.

Will look to re-open a long-term investment next week after this consolidates.
Trade active:
Went long again this morning on the volume spike, picked up June $25 strikes
Trade active:
Calls are now ITM, about 125% in profit. Will begin shaving off position today to adjust risk accordingly.
