Clean Earnings

L

Something I noticed when trading earnings-

If something runs more than 5% pre earnings generally you will get a very volatile movement, whereby less than 5% it is much cleaner, two I can give you examples-

Cisco-less than 5% during the week, nice clean movement

ASTs-10% on the day, bit more volatile

Big movement before earning suggests less likely big movement for earnings and vice versa.

Anyone else have the same experience?
