Earnings Options Strategies
Pre-Earnings (IV Expansion)
IV typically rises into earnings as traders price in uncertainty. Strategies that benefit: long straddles/strangles (if IV is still low), calendar spreads, or simply selling premium if IV is already elevated.
Post-Earnings (IV Crush)
After earnings, IV typically collapses as uncertainty resolves. Premium sellers often target this IV crush, while buyers must overcome the volatility contraction to profit from directional moves.
Current IV Context
ABBV's current IV Rank of 36% indicates relatively subdued volatility expectations, though this may increase as earnings approach.
