What is Earnings Straddle Analyzer?

Earnings Straddle Analyzer The Earnings Straddle Analyzer decomposes straddle P&L into IV crush, theta decay and directional components, comparing market pricing against forecast and smooth models.

Why this matters for your trading.

How professional options traders use Earnings Straddle Analyzer to find edge.

Decompose the P&L

The waterfall breaks straddle returns into three components: IV crush, theta decay and directional move. Know exactly what's driving profitability.

Compare Pricing Models

See the actual M1 straddle price vs the model forecast and smooth models. If the market price exceeds the forecast by 50%+, the straddle is likely overpriced.

Track the Edge Score

The edge score quantifies how often actual moves exceed implied. A seller edge above 50 means straddle sellers have historically won more often than not.
