EBAY Options Ahead of Earnings Short

eBay Inc.NASDAQ

Description

I wonder who is still using Ebay?! I used to have a store there and close it because of their high fees.
If you haven`t sold EBAY here, on the active buyers decline:


Then you should know that looking at the EBAY options chain ahead of earnings , I would buy the $47.5 strike price Puts with
2023-7-21 expiration date for about
$3.70 premium.
If the options turn out to be profitable Before the earnings release, I would sell at least 50%.
I have chosen that expiration date to allow me to be wrong and not close the position and to have a bigger gain by the expiration date, if EBAY keeps going lower.

Looking forward to read your opinion about it.





Trade closed: target reached

EBAY trading at $43.71 today, after earnings. Puts trading at $4.60 at the close, even higher intraday. A decent gain.
