Max loss: $18.29
Max gain: Unlimited
BE: 77.71 / 114.29
Trigger: Hold through earnings; consider gamma scalping if near $90.

Outperforms: Buy $96 straddle to profit from large move regardless of direction.
Underperforms: Under-realized move and IV crush hurt long-vol thesis.
Long Strangle
Buy 2026-08-21 $75.00 put + buy $125.00 call

Max loss: $6.22

How to Use These Reports
This earnings reflects the market close on June 25, 2026.
What the reports do

Each report translates the same market-close options snapshot into a specific lens such as directional bias, premium-selling posture, flow quality, or earnings setup.

How traders use them

Reports are most useful for narrowing the playbook, surfacing entry and risk context, and deciding which raw data page to inspect next.

What to remember
