TSLA EARNINGS 

Tesla, Inc.NASDAQ

Description

TSLA announces earnings tomorrow (Tuesday) after market close, so if you're going to play it, put on your set up before the end of the NY session. Here's a couple of possibilities:

Nov 13th 187.5/240 Short Strangle for 3.97 in credit
Max Profit: $397
BPE: ~ $2135
POP%: 74%
BE's: 183.53/243.97

Nov 13th 180/187.5/240/247.5 Iron Condor for 1.69 credit
Max Profit: $169
BPE: ~ $580
POP%: 70%
BE's: 185.81/241.69

Notes: I'm not sure all go naked on this one or use an iron condor. I usually go one more week out as opposed to the TastyTrade same Friday option, since it allows me a little more time to roll in the event I don't get a fill for what I set up in the morning before NY open (day job and such). I also may be a big old chicken and go wider to the downside, since the company's had "a few" problems with product quality that these earnings in all likelihood will not fix ... .
