For now I plan on keeping mine open after the meeting. If the SP rises, or if IV crushes, I'm good. If we drop, my strikes are low enough (laddered between $650-$700) I think I will still be fine. I went conservative around earnings.FWIW STO -750/+650 BPS for 10/22 this morning at $9.50 net credit
Short leg is at current put wall, and $22 OTM past the 1SD cited earlier, so seems pretty safe.
Are folks selling for next Friday mostly looking to close by late Wed. before ER announce, or Thursday looking for IV crush vs any possible sell the news?
If I had to guess, I am expecting a sell the news drop, but muted and offset by the stellar earnings. Two opposing forces canceling each other out, resulting in no big moves.
