Implied volatility was above the 50th percentile when I did my pre-analysis on Monday. However, it slipped in Tuesday's trading and no longer meets my standard. The 50th percentile is the cut-off point.
I can now cut short the analysis and go straight to a decision.
Decision for My Account
I am declining to trade FDX in connection with Wednesday's earnings announcement because of overly low implied volatility.
