9:55 AM – Selling half of my 2/3 position in CBZ this morning after the stock gapped sharply higher following earnings. While the reaction is certainly bullish, post-earnings trading can be highly volatile. I’m taking advantage of the strength to lock in a substantial profit while allowing the remaining shares to participate if the gains continue.
James’ Trader’s Tip: Let Earnings Work for You
• Large post-earnings gaps often create increased volatility in both directions.
• Selling a partial position into strength allows you to realize gains while maintaining upside exposure.
• Scaling out in stages helps reduce emotional decision-making and keeps you aligned with your trading plan.
