In case you hadn’t noticed, earnings season is in full swing. As day traders and swing traders, we love stocks with earnings. But there are a lot of things you need to know about earnings season before you start trading it. Whether you're watching CNBC or scrolling on FinTwit, you'll hear about stocks announcing earnings this week … and moving BIG. Now, you're probably wondering, “How can I capitalize on that?” You can, but you must be cautious. Earnings season is a double-edged sword, opening the door for big potential wins and massive potential losses. On the one hand, if you understand the intricacies of earnings season and trade accordingly, you could grow your account by a lot this month. On the other hand, if you fall victim to the fear of missing out (FOMO) and start trading earnings without a solid game plan, you’re gonna get destroyed. Considering this, let’s break down a few key aspects of earnings season that many traders fatally ignore… Sponsored The Secret Behind 176 Winners on 204 Trades One trading pro with over a decade of experience may have cracked the code to a market-beating trading edge that’s helped him win 176 out of his last 204 trades*.

What Is An Earnings Winner? So, the first thing to remember is that we love to trade earnings winners. If a stock is an earnings winner, it sounds like the company made a lot of money, like the future prospects are big… But the most critical thing to focus on is this: When people in day trading and swing trading circles start talking about an earnings winner, that doesn’t necessarily mean the financials are good. Remember: The market is irrational and stocks can move inversely to what the earnings statements are In trading, we call this a “buy the rumor, sell the news” event. It happens more often than you’d think. Even if a company makes money, it might not have made as much money as the market expected… This is especially true if this is a stock that's been trending up for days, weeks, or even months Everyone expects a bigger number; a bigger sales number, a fatter revenue number, and a higher share price. Even if the company is profitable, if that number doesn't meet market expectations … the stock can drop rapidly. Don’t believe me? Look up earnings dates in [StocksToTrade](. And note what Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) does post-earnings. Quite frequently, the company makes billions of dollars but the stock still goes down. Sometimes they announce record sales and the stock price still goes down. That's because the market expectations weren't met. So, we wanna focus on the stocks that are moving up, moving big in relation to earnings. That's what we call an earnings winner. And this is the thing you need to focus on. How To Find Earnings Winners Every day during earning season, I screen the market for stocks that fit my criteria. We’ll be doing this together all week in [Pre-Market Prep](.

The market is telling you, “This stock is an earnings winner.” This is why, more than any other criteria, I want you to focus on stocks that are moving big. Don't fall in love with the earnings statement, they can bury a lot of information in there and you can often end up with a losing trade simply because you focused too much on the fundamentals. You can say, “Wait, sales are up, profits are up…this stock has to go up.” But that’s a fallacy — it doesn't have to go up, Only price pays. Write that down on a sticky note and plaster it on your monitor. None of the news matters, none of the earnings matters. All that matters is the price action. Focus on stocks moving big on high volume and you’ll be trading the real earnings winners.
