Strategy Type: Debit Call Spread (defined risk, favorable skew)
Thesis: Price moving from $77 toward the $85–$93 liquidity zone
🧾 Setup Details (as of $77.76 spot)
📅 Expiry:
August 16, 2025 (standard monthly expiration – gives time for move to unfold post-earnings and macro catalysts)
⚙️ Structure:
Buy 80 Call @ ~$3.70
Sell 90 Call @ ~$1.10
Net Debit (Cost): ≈ $2.60 per spread
Max Profit: $10 spread - $2.60 cost = $7.40
Max Loss: $2.60
Break-Even: $82.60
📈 Profit Scenario
Stock Price @ Expiry P&L per spread
≤ $80 -100% loss (-$260)
$82.60 Break-even
$90 Max gain ($740 profit)
≥ $93.05 Full liquidity sweep – still capped at $90
🧮 Risk-Reward
R:R Ratio: 2.85:1
Probability of Profit (est.): ~42% (based on delta skew + chart breakout zones)
Implied Volatility Rank: Neutral-high (useful for buying debit spreads)
🛡️ Why Debit Spread?
Controlled risk — limited to your premium paid ($260)
Aligns with structure shift and price roadmap toward $85–$93
Selling 90C offsets premium and reduces theta decay
🪛 Adjustments
If ZM breaks above $80.65 with volume, consider adding a second spread or switching to long calls for momentum
If ZM fails to hold $75.72 key level, cut or hedge with short-dated puts (70P)
🔁 Alternate (More Aggressive) Play:
Buy August 85C outright
Cost ≈ $1.30
Break-even ≈ $86.30
Max reward: unlimited
Use if expecting strong earnings surprise or short squeeze
