Time for another newbie question. Some people have said that after the earnings report volitility (IV) should go back down, therefore decreasing cost of calls (at least the portion relating to IV, obviously any change in share price will change intrinsic value so if the stock goes up then waiting for IV to go down isn't a good strategy). My question is how long will it take after the earnings report for this effect to take place? Is it something that's immediate once all the immediate reactions to the CC take place? (thursday and friday likely) or is it a longer term type thing, like next week or next month? I know the values tracked for IV are IV30 IV60 and IV90 days but I guess I don't understand which ones matter the most, like if they are weighted differently or something.
Based on what happens AH today and then after normal trading opens again I want to know the factors I should consider when buying in. Thanks!
