So option sellers, going into the thick of earnings season it's time to decide once again... Are you trading for excitement or are you trading to make money consistently and with edge.
Selling earnings options? Generally not great. What do we want when we sell options? Little movement. What do we get with earnings? Massive gap risk into a short option trade that has negative convexity.
"Oh, but Hans, I'm getting compensated with high options pricing".
No you're not over time. Maybe today it will work, maybe tomorrow. And the next few times. But... beware the turkey.
Selling an option for $2 that is worth $30 the next morning (CRM last season) doesn't seem fun to me. Again, are you trading for excitement or trading to make money. Don't get me wrong... excitement is perfectly fine, but figure out what side of the fence you are truly on.
