>>21159057Well @eWhispers is the source for all those "I do business with some of these companies" earnings charts people post. That can give you advance warning of big dogs reporting.
Your plan of how to trade things should also include looking at the setup. So for example here's what you're dealing with when it comes to SOXS (rather than shorting AVGO itself).
Some things to note:
>It's already at support (the red line's the 200 daily moving average. Takes a lot to break those)>It's already at demand (same price as the March chopfest. A lot of people bought in/demanded shares at that price). Even a gargantuan AVGO miss might not be enough to convince aaaaall those buyers to ditch their bags.>It already had that yuge July selloff. So every Johnny-come-lately panic sold then, and the people who cautiously bought back in in August already have one eye on the exit.
