How to trade smartly during the earnings season

How to trade smartly during the earnings season

Tickeron introduce new type of AI Robots for traders who are focusing on earnings season as well of those who trading in this period.

Advantages of this strategy:

  • Market neutrality - The AI Robot opens both short and long positions, which allows it not to depend on the current market situation.
  •  Easy to follow - this robot trades only during the earnings season and has simple rules for making trades.
  • Short trade duration - The average trade duration is 2 days, which allows our users to use their capital effectively and not get stuck in one trade for a long time.

Earnings Trader

Every day, our mathematical algorithms look for companies having a quarterly report shortly and conduct a comprehensive analysis on them. If the AI makes a positive forecast, then the day before the report is released, the robot opens a long position. If the forecast is negative, then a short position is opened. Both types of trades are closed at the end of the report release day.

Important notice:  The Earnings day is very often accompanied by an increase in volatility. Therefore, it's not recommended to allocate more than 5% of one’s capital to one trade.

The robot's trading results are shown without using a margin. For a full trading statistics and equity chart, click on the "show more" button on the robot page. In the tab “Open Trades”, a user can see live how the AI Robot selects equities, enters, and exits in paper trades. In the tab, “Closed trades”, a user can review all previous trades made by the AI Robot.

Shares of MOBX surged approximately +532.77% in the March 3, 2026 trading session, closing at $1.12 versus a prior close of $0.18. The primary catalyst was a major production purchase order from the U.S. Navy for components used in the Tomahawk cruise missile program.
DAKT shares are declining approximately -10% in Wednesday's session, trading near $23.91, compared to the prior close of approximately $26.57. The primary catalyst is the pre-market release of fiscal Q3 2026 earnings, in which diluted EPS of $0.06 fell significantly short of the consensus estimate of approximately $0.13–$0.15.
Shares of HRZN plunged approximately 23% in Wednesday's trading session — one of the steepest single-day declines in the company's recent history. Primary catalyst: Q4 2025 earnings released after the close on March 3 revealed net investment income (NII) per share of just $0.18, badly missing the consensus estimate of $0.26 and marking a steep sequential decline.
Palantir (PLTR) is outperforming a struggling market, rallying strongly over the past few sessions while approaching a critical resistance level near $143. With geopolitical tensions rising and defense analytics demand growing, the stock sits at a pivotal technical moment that could determine its next major move.
Investors holding record levels of protective puts means downside is heavily hedged, which often dampens crash risk but supports higher implied volatility (VIX) in the short run. The fact that the S&P 500 and Nasdaq are rising while hedging is surging suggests a “wall of worry” market: people are bullish enough to stay in, but nervous enough to pay up for insurance.
During the week of 9–15 February 2026, major U.S. equity indices finished lower overall, while Tickeron’s trending AI trading bots produced positive returns, particularly in defense and energy—two areas now directly affected by the newly opened war in Iran. With macro risk rising and volatility picking up, this divergence matters: it shows how sector‑focused, rules‑based AI strategies can still find upside when broad index exposure is negative.
Investors are furiously hedging against a potential credit market crash, just as geopolitical risk explodes with a new war in Iran. Put option open interest on major U.S. credit ETFs like HYG, JNK, LQD, and BKLN has surged to a record ~11.5 million contracts, doubling over the last 12 months and already exceeding the 2022 bear‑market peak of 10 million.
The current gap between single‑stock implied volatility and index volatility is back near October 2008 extremes, signaling that investors expect idiosyncratic risk (stock‑specific jumps) to dominate.
The HUBB/AVGO/ITA/QQQ robot is a multi-sector swing trader with a 5-minute entry / daily exit structure, capturing macro megatrends across defense, semiconductors, infrastructure, and growth tech. The LRCX/TER/AMAT/KLAC/AMKR/ASML robot is a concentrated intraday-to-swing trader operating exclusively in semiconductor equipment — one of the highest-volatility sectors in the market — on a 60-minute timeframe.
Tickeron's Defense PPA AI Trading Agent is an automated swing trading system focused exclusively on PPA — the Invesco Aerospace & Defense ETF. Designed with a 60-minute entry timeframe and daily timeframe exit signals, the robot balances intraday precision with longer-duration swing holding, allowing it to capture meaningful price moves in one of the most momentum-driven sectors of 2025–2026.
MRNA surged approximately +16.07% on March 4, 2026, closing at $57.84, up from the prior session's close of $49.83. The primary catalyst was Moderna's announcement of a landmark settlement in its long-running patent dispute over lipid nanoparticle (LNP) technology used in its mRNA vaccines.
Shares of The Trade Desk (TTD) surged +28.05% on March 5, 2026, reaching $32.23 from a prior close of $25.17. The primary catalyst was CEO Jeff Green's record insider purchase of approximately 6 million shares worth ~$148 million — the largest insider buy in the company's history.
AEO shares are trading at $19.89, down $2.56 or -11.40% from the prior session's close of $22.45. The primary catalyst is deeply disappointing Q1 fiscal 2026 operating income guidance of just $20–$25 million, which badly missed analyst expectations.
CIEN shares plunged 14.25% on March 5, 2026, trading at $294.59 versus the prior session's close of $343.55 — a decline of $48.96 per share. The steep sell-off came despite a strong earnings beat: adjusted EPS of $1.35 crushed the consensus estimate of $1.05 by 28.6%, and revenue of $1.43 billion rose 33% year-over-year.
Shares of Victoria's Secret & Co. (VSCO) tumbled approximately 11.87% in early trading on March 5, falling from a prior close of $60.01 to an intraday price near $52.89, with an intraday low of $51.61. The steep decline came despite a Q4 2025 earnings beat, with adjusted EPS of $2.77 topping the consensus estimate of $2.46 and revenue of $2.27 billion exceeding the expected $2.22 billion.
AMPX shares surged +18.57% in today's session, trading at $14.88 versus the prior close of $12.55. Primary catalyst: Q4 and full-year fiscal 2025 earnings, reported before the open, delivered a decisive beat on both EPS and revenue expectations.
EXPE shares are trading up approximately +9.70% intraday on March 5, 2026, rising from a prior close of $221.25 to around $242.71. March 5 is the stock's ex-dividend date for a newly raised quarterly dividend of $0.48 per share — a 20% increase from the prior payout — signaling strong management confidence in cash generation.
SES shares are down approximately 30% intraday on Thursday, March 5, 2026, trading near $1.19 against the prior session's close of $1.71. The primary catalyst is deeply disappointing 2026 revenue guidance of $30–$35 million — roughly 41% below the Wall Street consensus of $51.67 million.
