Stock / Symbol: Netflix / NFLX
Option Strategy: [private_monthly]butterfly[/private_monthly];
Price at trade post: $346.50;
Reasoning: The street is expecting a +/- move of 43 (or 12%) on Netflix following tonight's earnings release. I'm going to put on a low risk, high reward bet that it pops 7% on the news. I'm using a [private_monthly]butterfly call spread with this week's expiring options.[/private_monthly]. The trade's greeks are: 0.05 delta, 1.77 theta, and -0.13 vega. This is a low probability trade so I'm not risking much.
