The impact of Tesla's earnings on the market and the market's impact on Tesla's earnings are almost zero. Tesla's earnings are its own independent trend.Don't buy both call and put options expiring soon, the implied volatility (IV) will crush you.

You can set the stop-loss order very high because you're betting on a violent surge. If it's going to surge violently, there's almost no chance of it dropping more than a point (which would correspond to two points for TSLL), so the potential loss is very limited. But if it does - **Ryan-** (2026-04-20T17:31:24.000Z): First, if you use expiration bets, you have to be prepared to lose 20%-30% or more upfront, because that's a sure thing with IV crush. So I've always felt that using expiration bets to play earnings i - **脆皮大学牲** (2026-04-20T17:35:22.000Z): Then I feel the risk of using leverage is quite low, because you can set the stop-loss point very high, or am I misunderstanding? 🤔 - **Ryan-** (2026-04-20T17:40:04.000Z): Yes, another advantage is that the market instantly reacts to what Old Ma says, which could directly cause a ±3% fluctuation.
