WAL Western Alliance Bancorporation Options Ahead of Earnings

Analyzing the options chain of WAL Western Alliance Bancorporation prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 40usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2023-7-21,
for a premium of approximately $2.20.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.

Looking forward to read your opinion about it.

Congrats to those who held the calls!
