<As a rule of thumb just to be safe, I would not hold a stock through earnings that was not up on the day before. Even YHOO was up the day before earnings. Even if they are up you are not guaranteed of a success, but if they are down its more ominous.>

I tested this on my database and here is the proof: If an Earnings Play closed up on the day before earnings, it went up the day after earnings 69% of the time. If it closed down before earnings, it was down afterwards 68% of the time.
