Wednesday's Agenda

Out of five prospective trades coinciding with earnings announcements, three meet my criteria for a full analysis: FB, WFM and QCOM.

I have disgarded ENDP because of an overly wide bid/ask spread and CLR because of low implied volatility compared to the range of the past 12 months.

This late in the earnings season, my trading funds are already almost fully committed, so I am prioritizing as follows: FB first because of its higher price, which generally allows for larger premiums, then QCOM based on a clearer bear tendency, and finally WFM.
