I have entered an earnings play using shares on CTLT, which publishes its earnings report on Feb. 5 before the opening bell.
I exited a few days after entry on a trend shift to the downside on the 3-hour Fisher Transform metric. The position produced a 5.9% return over two days, or a 1,080% annual rate.
| sym | entry | exit | result ($) | result (%) | entry date | exit date |
