Looking for IQV to move higher. Might buy the Nov 130 calls. And depending on credit I can get, offset with selling Oct 135 calls. Earnings is Oct 24 after the 135 calls expire. IV should increase for the 130 calls. Plan is to close this combo before earnings. Might also buy some shares through earnings.
Trade closed manually:
I opted to buy naked calls instead of the above mentioned combo. Also bought shares on the stock. I closed the options today, but will hold the shares.
Trade closed: target reached:
Sold the rest.
