Update-NFLX earnings this week

Here's another comparison ... using ask for in the money options ...

To straddle last week would have cost $16.15 (without earnings play)
This week it includes earnings so cost is $$34.90

Close on day before earnings .... Straddle would cost $30.75

This week NFLX is up $13 ... $340 calls were $15 on Fri close, now $21.20
That would be 40% gain Puts went from $14.75 to $7.50 roughly -50%.

Seems like the stock will need to move 10% on earnings to cover the cost of a straddle.
