agraff..<<we buy options or puts after. long or short time or both.>>Of course I want to that as well. I'm sure it's probably less risky. I just don't have the proper scope yet to determine how much consecutive days uptrend is left in a company AFTER earnings before it corrects. I've never held options longer than 4 weeks or so. I've just begun an extensive analysis of about 30 companies with very good earnings surprises through the last 3 quarters. I'm looking at how much they went up historically and when they corrected. I did notice that most of the companies I buy move easily over 80-100% on a good report. The ones that did not (ZBRA, JBIL, was a 30-40% loss on option the same day)

I am also testing how many days of uptrend are there in a company after a "strong buy" Vs. a "buy" or "outperform". Remember how long it was with ABF, JBIL and FDX?

These companies usually fall into my criteria for a buy anyhow (i.e. usually close to a 52 week high, exploding out of a trading range, corrected after a nice uptrend, etc.) If the upgrade comes after the report, as it did with SEBL and PWAV, I hold on for a while.
