Earnings season is here, and Dr. Jim Schultz walks beginners through how to approach it as a premium seller. The first and most important step is deceptively simple: know exactly when each company reports. He shows how to sort a watchlist by the earnings date, IBM, Netflix, Meta, Tesla, the big tech names, because for a seller that date is a binary event that pumps implied vol going in and crushes it right after. Get the timing right and you structure around the vol crush. 📊 tastylive: https://www.tastylive.com/ 📰 Get Tom's pre-market analysis every morning: https://www.tastylive.com/newsletters 📘 FREE Options Strategy Guide: https://tinyurl.com/bp9ms763 📱 Follow tastylive on X: https://x.com/tastyliveshow Chapters 00:00 Back on the Tasty Network 00:40 Surviving a nasty couple of days 01:20 The start of earnings season 02:00 Why it matters for your style 02:45 Sorting the watchlist by earnings date 03:30 Knowing what's coming up 04:30 Why the date matters for premium sellers 05:30 The volatility around the event 06:30 Structuring around the vol crush 07:30 Approaching the season the right way #tastylive #knowyouroptions #jimschultz #earningsseason #sellingpremium #volcrush #impliedvolatility #optionsforbeginners #optionstrading #stockmarket tastylive is a real financial network, producing hours of live programming every day.
