Strategies

Iron Condor
Sell 2026-06-18 $395.00/$390.00 put wing and $405.00/$410.00 call wing
Credit: $3.58-$4.37
Max loss: $0.63
Max gain: $4.37
BE: 390.63 / 409.37
Trigger: Exit if short strikes tested; roll wings if needed.
Defined risk range-bound play near max pain; highest probability given pinning and bearish bias.
Outperforms: Sells OTM wings on both sides to collect premium; profits if TSLA stays within $390-$405.
Underperforms: Move outside short strikes invalidates range thesis.
Short Strangle
Sell 2026-06-18 $390.00 put + sell $410.00 call
Credit: $16.18-$19.77
Max loss: Unlimited
Max gain: $19.77
BE: 370.23 / 429.77
Trigger: Close at 50% max profit; stop loss if stock breaks beyond strikes.
Higher premium than iron condor but unlimited risk; suitable for high confidence in range.
Outperforms: Sells OTM put and call; benefits from IV crush and time decay.
Underperforms: Break outside short strikes invalidates short-vol thesis.
Put Calendar
Sell 2026-06-18 $400.00 put / buy 2026-07-17 $400.00 put
Debit: $9.38-$11.47
Max loss: $11.47
Max gain: Variable
BE: Path-dependent
Trigger: Close near-term at expiration; manage long put if earnings reaction.
Bearish directional tilt via term structure; near-term decay benefits with back-month protection.
Outperforms: Short near-term put decays quickly; long back-month put gains if TSLA falls.
Underperforms: Loss of support or adverse vol term shift weakens thesis.
Call calendar
Sell 2026-06-18 $400.00 call / buy 2026-07-17 $400.00 call
Debit: $10.60-$12.95
Max loss: $12.95
Max gain: Variable
BE: Path-dependent
Pre-earnings term structure steep; near-term vol decay benefits short call while long back-month retains upside exposure.
Outperforms: Exploit elevated near-term call IV relative to back-month via call calendar before earnings.
Underperforms: Loss of support or adverse vol term shift weakens thesis.

How to Use These Reports
This earnings reflects the market close on June 9, 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

These are interpretation layers, not execution guarantees. Validate the setup against chain liquidity, expected move, and exposure before sizing risk.

If the report conviction and the raw data disagree, slow down and resolve the mismatch before sizing risk.
