While everyone is focused on job numbers, rising interest rates, and what the Fed might do next, the real action is about to shift to something far more immediate: earnings season.

For traders, this is a time of massive opportunity – or costly mistakes. Companies will release their quarterly results, triggering huge stock moves.

But here’s the problem: most traders don’t have a clear strategy. They’re left guessing whether a stock will beat or miss expectations, turning earnings season into a gamble.

What if you didn’t have to guess?

What if there was a proven way to profit from these explosive moves-without worrying about whether the stock goes up or down?

That’s where the Pre-Earnings Volume Trade comes in.

It’s a simple yet powerful strategy designed to capitalize on a predictable surge in trading activity that happens just before earnings are announced.

With this strategy, you can tap into big, fast moves – no matter which direction the stock goes.

Here’s how it works.

The Pre-Earnings Volume Trade in Action

The Pre-Earnings Volume Trade focuses on a unique market phenomenon: the volume surge that happens the day before a company’s earnings announcement.

This surge, driven by institutional investors and insiders placing bets, signals that a major move is coming.

Unlike most traders who gamble on whether a stock will rise or fall, this strategy profits from volatility itself – eliminating the guesswork.

Why Volume Surges Matter

Volume spikes before earnings are not random. They’re a clear sign that big money is moving in. And when volume surges, the stock almost always makes a significant move after the announcement.

Here’s the data to prove it:

• Over 5 years, 168 stocks showed a 100% or greater volume spike the day before earnings.
• The next day, 70% of these stocks moved significantly, with an average price change of 13.8%.
• For stocks with a 200%+ volume spike, the success rate jumped to 88%, with an average move of 19.46%.

This is the edge: we don’t guess-we profit from proven patterns.

How It Works

The Pre-Earnings Volume Trade follows a simple, systematic approach:

1. Spot the Volume Spike:

• Identify stocks with trading volume at least 100% higher than their 30-day average the day before earnings. A 200% or 300% spike signals an even bigger opportunity.

2. The Tipping Point Indicator:

• Confirm that the stock price is near a key technical level, like the moving average, indicating it’s primed for a breakout or breakdown.

3. The Options Play:

• Use a special options strategy designed to profit from volatility, regardless of whether the stock moves up or down.

4. Clear Exit Points:

• Set exact profit targets and stop-losses to protect capital and lock in gains.

The Results Speak For Themselves

Let’s see the strategy in action:

• Advanced Auto Parts (AAP): On May 30th, trading volume surged 119% the day before earnings. The stock missed expectations and dropped 35%. But thanks to our options play, the trade delivered a 293% gain in less than 24 hours.

• Dell Technologies (DELL): On February 29th, volume spiked 243%. The next day, the stock moved big, and the trade produced a 360% gain overnight.

• Dollar General (DG): Despite a 20% drop after earnings, our trade delivered a 190% gain the very next day.

The beauty of this strategy? It doesn’t matter if the stock goes up or down. As long as it moves, we win.

Why This Strategy Works

The Pre-Earnings Volume Trade works because it targets a predictable market inefficiency. Institutional activity ahead of earnings creates volume surges that signal big post-earnings moves.

By focusing on volume and volatility, instead of guessing earnings outcomes, this strategy delivers fast, consistent results.

YOUR ACTION PLAN

Earnings season is just around the corner, bringing dozens of opportunities for trades like these.

You can keep guessing – or you can start capitalizing on the volume surges that create massive moves.

The Pre-Earnings Volume Trade is your edge.

It’s time to stop guessing and start profiting.

FUN FACT FRIDAY

Did you know that during earnings season in October 2008, Volkswagen (VW) briefly became the most valuable company in the world – overtaking giants like ExxonMobil?

Here’s what happened: During the chaos of earnings season, Porsche shocked the market by announcing it had secretly increased its stake in Volkswagen to over 74%.

This news triggered a historic short squeeze, as traders who had bet against VW scrambled to cover their positions.

The result?

VW’s stock skyrocketed 93% in a single day, pushing its market value to a staggering $370 billion – briefly making it the most valuable company on the planet.
