#Earnings Bought to close $NFLX 345/355-365/375 #IronCondor for 4.15 and 4.16. Sold yesterday for 8.35. With price at dead center, taking profit and running as NFLX may still move big. Can’t Truss It.

NFLX tight condor
#Earnings Sold to Open $NFLX Apr 18th 345/355-365/375 #IronCondor for 8.35.
Risking 1.65 to make 5.00-7.00. Max win is about 8.35 but that’s only if I wait for expiration on Thursday. I’ll look to close this when (and if) stock price gets close enough to my 10-point center range for a profit.
NFLX often gaps big, but then sometimes will fade for the rest of the day (or two days). This is a smaller position as probability is lower and I don’t want to lose the max on a large position.
PNC up and out
#Earnings I played this one exactly right… slightly bearish lean. Today’s +3.1% day is the highest one-day move up after earnings since January 2013. So, expiring with 3.00 exercise cost, $PNC #IronCondor, sold yesterday for 2.00.
PNC (slightly) bearish condor
#Earnings Sold $PNC Apr 12th 124/127-128/131 #IronCondor for 2.00.
Risking 1.00 to make 2.00. Sightly bearish due to its recent history.
