Option plays for GitHub (GTLB) earnings and beyond

Hi everyone,

To start off this week we have Gitlab. Now I quite like this formation and see no reason why the trend shouldn't continue to retest some of those old Fib levels So I have decided to run 2 upside targets, the first, looking for a May expiration

Looking for $91 but giving myself some wiggle room between $87 and $95 at around 75 days out. BB1 came up with the following list;

In this instance I have chosen the 2nd one on the list, just because it has a slightly larger landing pad

It sits in its 30th percentile so a little undervalued too.

Looks good on the heatmap....

The 2nd run I did was to target a little higher, at the $104 area but giving myself a lot longer timeframe...well I say "a lot", September... 200 days to run

On this one I have gone for a more unconventional FLy but given it is top of the overall list

Has a lovely looking heat map, even a good return if you get the direction right early

A quick mention to any of you wishing to purchase any OTM options with a shorter expiration, look at the table below...that is why you get crushed on an IV dump, the front moths will lose all that premium over the backs in an instant

and remember, always rather be lucky than be good.
