No idea here on BRCD, sean, but AH plays are tricksie little beasts and require a dose of luck and nuance not always "in stock" here at my place. I usually stay away. Actually took a paper short at 6.59 following the dump -- just for kicks.

Maybe they had a CC already and it sucked, or some analyst came out rough on 'em and it hasn't hit our feeds yet. But it's being sold down pretty well now after a little pop.

You gotta go in with some sense of what the stock does following earnings in the past, what it expected, what might be a whisper number, how the chart looks, all of that shit. And you can still be wrong and wrong in spades. Often times forward guidance is not issued with the first set of numbers and that is a big thing to hear about as often numbers are good but guidance is "weak". A poster here called AH trading the "casino round" for a reason.
