Comment:
Correction: Earnings are going to be announced Thursday after the close, so there's still time to put this on or a 17 short straddle, which was paying 2.80 as of today's close. This is actually probably why I went defined risk versus naked in this particular case; I'm only giving up .31 to throw on those long option wings.
