Was looking good until those d*** earnings came out!!

Miss on earnings, miss on revenue, and the stock has been up as much as 75% this morning.

I will state once again, you just cannot play stocks ahead of earnings, you do not know what they will say, or how the street will react.

Fortunately in real life it has provided a super trade on the long side this morning.
