What Tools Can Help You Trade During Earnings Season?

Webull provides four efficient trading tools to help you trade during earnings season. Let’s read the full lesson to learn more.

A company’s earnings report can be an important event for investors, as it has the potential to cause a significant price change. Here, we will introduce some efficient tools to help your trading during the earnings season.

Earnings Calendar

The Earnings Calendar allows you to learn when companies plan to announce their earnings report. Based on this, you can do your own analysis and prepare for potential trading opportunities. The Webull earnings calendar shows the release time, EPS estimate, market cap, and more. This tool can help you make informed trading decisions.

EPS Chart

Typically, Webull will give investors an estimate before earnings are released; if the actual performance is greater than the estimate, the company’s stock price might go up; conversely, the stock price might go down if the actual performance is below the estimate. This represents your sentiment for the company—bullish = greater than the estimate, bearish = below the estimate.

From the picture below, you can see the company’s EPS is greater than the estimate for four consecutive fiscal years, which indicates the company has performed well in the past four fiscal years and might have more investors still bullish about the company in the present quarter. Based on this, you can choose a bullish strategy, such as a long call, to make a potential profit.

Earnings Alert

As earnings can cause a significant price rise or fall, many investors will find the chance to make a trade. Whether trading around an earnings release or after the earnings release, active monitoring for the company is necessary. On Webull, you can add the release date to your system calendar to be notified when the earnings are released.

Earnings Surprises

Investors can go through the Earnings Surprises list to see which company is beyond or below expectations. Don’t miss this list before placing a trade during earnings season!

The Bottom Line

A company’s earnings season is an important time of year for investors. Doing your own research and analysis can help you find trading opportunities that best suit your investment style. Learning how to use these tools can help you trade more efficiently.
