RIOT is set for earnings next Thursday, and traders are bracing for post-earnings volatility with hedges already in place. One plan: a small put hedge to weather a dump, while keeping the core position intact [1].

Here are the moves traders are talking about, based on recent chatter:

• Hedging after earnings — small put hedge [1]

• Trim Jan calls between $46-$50; earnings is typically sold off, so expect a channel move; time horizon shifted from near-term to Feb/Mar for safety [2]

• Roll exposure out of Nov–Dec into February/March to reduce time decay and ride a potential longer window [2]

RIOT is among the names on the week’s earnings watchlist, signaling post-earnings attention for crypto miners [3].

What this suggests for price action: post-earnings volatility is on the menu, with traders planning for both downside protection and upside capture around the print [2].

Bottom line: around RIOT’s print, have a plan, consider light hedges, and be ready for a volatile channel into year-end [2].
