How to read this
The implied move is the magnitude options price in before a report — not a forecast, and not a direction. When the actual move exceeds it, long-volatility structures held through the print were favored by the move itself; when the move stays inside, short-volatility structures were. Neither outcome is predictable in advance, and this page describes what happened — it is not a recommendation. For any single name's full history, open its playbook or live data page.

Frequently asked questions
What does this tracker show?
For each notable Q3 2026 earnings report: the implied move (what options priced in before the report) versus the actual move, updated through the season as companies report.
What does 'beat implied' mean?
The stock's actual earnings move was larger than the move options had priced in beforehand. 'Stayed inside' means the actual move was smaller than implied.
Why are some rows provisional?
Names that reported in the last few days show an initial cumulative reaction while the final peak-based statistics are still settling; rows are finalized once canonical data lands.
Does beating the implied move mean a trade was profitable?
Not by itself. It describes how the realized move compared with option pricing — outcomes for any specific position depend on structure, strikes, timing and IV changes. This page is educational, not advice.
This scoreboard is free. Trading the next print is where membership starts.
Live implied moves on every name still to report, beat probability against what options price in, IV-crush forecasts and a straddle simulator — the pipeline behind this tracker, pointed at the season's remaining reports.
