One of the potential volatility plays timed to coincide with earnings had no place on the list. CCL lacks Weeklys among its options, and so any position would be further away from expiration than I prefer.
The other potential volatility play, GME, met my criteria, and I have opened a position. See the analysis, "GME: Iron condor, volatility rules".
