PEP announces earnings on 10/6 before market open, so if you're going to make a play, consider putting it on on 10/5 before NY close to take maximum advantage of the volatility contraction that inevitably occurs post-earnings.
Unfortunately, PEP's IVR is currently only at 60, which isn't ideal for a premium selling play. This is understandable, since PEP hasn't been the most volatile underlying on the board since at late last year, having been rangebound 92.5 and 100.5 for most of that time.
The best thing to do is pass on a premium selling play if the IVR doesn't increase to +70 and keep powder dry for other earnings plays with more profit potential.
