    Long the AAPL Feb1/Feb8 162/167 call diagonal from -0.70 marketable. This spread trades at a debit after earnings. I am predicting a $0.10 debit during the day session after the release.

    Edited post. It's AAPL. Looking for a gain of 20% on the spread.

    $430 req per contract. $0.10-0.15 debit post-report (0.80-0.85 swing) = 20% return.

    Long MS 40 45 50 C FLYs for 3.2. GL srinir! I incorporate SPX term structure into my implied move calc, so it might be a bit different than ORATS.

    Filled on a single, for .7 going to try and get a better entry for another few.

    CSX and AA look like big winners tomorrow! Not to much movement after numbers. PnL dominated by MS tho. Will give account update on Friday including gamma scalps on both Berry and SYK

    This MS trade just removed 1.5% of my net liq! Made some back on CSX, AA.
    Closed CSX for avg of 4.08 and AA for 3.52. Still holding onto the otm calls as they are worth 0.
    Going to wait on MS a bit. @srinir what are you doing with this?

    I will also wait for it. My breakeven was at 42.87. So it was not that bad. Probably I will take rest of it delivery, since my GS covered call position was taken out yesterday
