PACS Group Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of PACS Group prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 15usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2025-1-17,
for a premium of approximately $0.27.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.

PACS GROUPPACS GROUP
One of the stocks identified in the IBD 50 index.
This is a a recent IPO.
A first long leg show an gain of 83%
A recent consolidation with higher lows and volatility contraction (VCP).
Entry 1: 39
Entry 2: 41
Entry 3: on breakout: 42
Stop loss: 37.86 (1 ATR = 0.5% of the capital)
The idea is to build a position step/step, manage the risk of portfolio, the stop loss shall be raised up after Entry 2, Entry 3, to keep a risk around 0.5% of the capital equal to 1 Average True range (ATR)
Conclusion: looks correct opportunity, to be followed up for a possible trade to build up.
