too hard to say shuo.. i think you should watch monday's action and decide.. i would defintely reduce position by thursday.

you decide whether you get in Before earnings or play After earnings.

depends on how much time and risk to take <g>

i would do this : set a buy limit order at 30-31right now and see what happens.. then on monday, move it up or down.

hi bruin, I have been burned in earning plays in the past, but recently I have been lucky probably only because I have been buying strongly uptrending stocks, ie. if a stock is trending up before earnings it will most likely post good earnings. Does that make any sense?

You can always buy half of a position before earnings, and maybe buy more after earnings.
