Facebook Earnings Tonight After the Close – FB

Tonight Facebook reports earnings, where will the stock head afterwards?  The option market is pricing in an over $4 move, will we get get that?  Facebook $74 or $66?  Or will the stock make an even bigger move?

This time last year Facebook was busy moving off sub $20 levels.  Now sub $70 levels... what levels will it be working off this time next year?  $110 levels?

The $74 calls that expire this week are $.89 the $66 puts are $.80.  The call to put volume is over 3 to 2.

What do I think?  I think $FB breaks out to fresh all time highs after the bell today after it reports earnings and closes the week over the $75 level.

I will be a buyer of $74 calls at some point today for that move.  The risk to that trade would be if $FB moves only 1-2% higher or trades flat or lower.  I have to not only be right about the reaction to $FB earnings, but also to the size of the reaction.

Could we get a similar reaction to earnings like this time last year (shaded circle in the chart below)?  Anything is possible.
