Since the beginning of this year, $Palantir (PLTR.US)$ 's earnings reports have consistently exceeded Wall Street's expectations. Aside from the downward trend in early August, its stock price has shown a "low open, high close" trend, with the rest of the time following a "high open, high close" pattern. Based on historical financial data, Q3 revenue is expected to continue its rapid growth, with a projected quarter-over-quarter increase of 7.8%.

Overall payroll growth slowed sharply to just +12K in October with manufacturing employment down -46K largely due to strike activity. The BLS said it wasn't able to quantify the effects of the hurricane but the market is likely to be forgiving due to those impacts.

$Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ.US)$
Based on the data provided by the Moomoo, the consensus expectation for this non-farm payrolls report appears to be relatively low.
According to an article from Nasdaq, it seems that selling straddles on this options expiration day could be a safer bet. I’ve looked into some option contract prices and found that the breakeven points and potential premiums are quite appealing.

Recently, I read Key investment trends to watch in October 2024 and "Sarge" indicated that this quarter could be a strong quarter for banks. To potentially profit from betting on $American Express (AXP.US)$ 's earnings report, I looked into recent stock price movements of bank stocks. I found that the stock prices of $JPMorgan (JPM.US)$ , $Goldman Sachs (GS.US)$ , and $Morgan Stanley (MS.US)$ all increased after their earnings reports were released. If the same happens with $American Express (AXP.US)$ , there m...

$Micron Technology (MU.US)$ Yesterday, I checked its financial reporting in the past three quarters, and I was wondering whether the option price would jump when its stock price jump above 105 after its earnings report, even if the IV (Implied Volatility) crushed. I ever planned to bet a call (Ticker: MU 240927 100 C), but I thought I may not afford this cost.
Today, I checked its stock price rise up to 110. If I bought this call yesterday at a price of 2.6, I may achieve a 200% ...

$Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3X Shares ETF (YINN.US)$
In the past three years, the U.S. stock market has been in a long-term bull market with short-term bear phases, while the Chinese stock market has been in a long-term bear market with short-term bull phases.
This recent rate cut by the Fed has temporarily boosted liquidity in the Hong Kong stock market, but sustaining long-term growth will still be challenging. I'm planning to buy a put option tonight for a bit of a gamble.

$Futu Holdings Ltd (FUTU.US)$ China's policies haven't managed to sustain rapid growth in the stock market, and in the short term, I'm bearish on all Chinese stocks. It seems that $Futu Holdings Ltd (FUTU.US)$ tends to rise before earnings reports, only to drop afterward.
Based on the MA250 indicator, I'm planning to implement a Strangle strategy, hoping to secure stable profits before the next earnings report.

squirrel in my pants OP fearless Monkey_8203 : This strategy is typically used when the price of the underlying asset is expected to decline, but the drop is limited.
If NVIDIA's stock price falls to $148 or lower, the strategy will achieve maximum profit because both options will expire worthless, and the investor earns the difference in option premiums received when opening the position. Therefore, the maximum profit = $1.866 million minus $1.566 million = $300,000.
However, if the stock price rises above $150, the investor will face the maximum loss because both options are in-the-money. The call with a strike price of $148 will be exercised: this means an obligation to sell 100 shares of NVIDIA at $148. The call with a strike price of $150 will be exercised by the investor: this means they have the right to buy 100 shares of NVIDIA at $150.
However, since an option premium of $0.5 per share was received when opening the position, the investor's maximum loss is $150 - $148 + $0.5 = -$1.5/share * 600 * 100 = $90,000.
