Since then, price action has been choppy, working its way back up to the $7,000 level, and most recently returning toan area just above $6,800. Price action since the start of 2026 seems indecisive, moving through arelatively narrowchannel between $6,800 and $7,050.We’vealso dipped below the highs seen in October 2025 several times. Thisindicatesmarket hesitancy, butit’simportant to note that any significant selloff in the last two months has found buyers that push it back to the $7,000 level. If sellersremainin control through February, look for them totargetthe $6,700 level followed by the $6,610level.If buyers take over, look for them to push to new all-time highs in February. **A note on earnings trades** To capture the bulk of the volatility of earnings announcements, earnings trades are often executed either the day before or on the day of the earnings announcement. However, earnings trades can also be placed days or weeks before an earnings event, which could lead to early profit taking. Alternatively, placing a trade shortly after an earnings announcement can be a strategic choice to circumvent the binary nature of the event. Evaluate each trade in a way that allows you to execute the position that matches your strategy. Ifyou'reconsidering a trade going into an earnings event, one approach is toinitiatethe position in the monthly options contract that follows the earnings event. This strategy offers flexibility. Should you need to defend your position –perhaps due tounexpected market movements – you have the choice to 'roll' it out to thesubsequentmonthly options. Rolling out the position in this way allows you to extend its duration and potentially collect more premium, providing a buffer against market volatility. **Top stocks to watch in February 2025** 1.
