Shares of Twilio Inc (NYSE:TWLO) pulled back to the 20-day moving average following a multi-year high earlier this month. This trendline sits just above 12 times the initial public offering (IPO) price of $15 and an earnings reaction high that saw a significant gap to $184.11.

Short interest has climbed 38% since mid-December – a build that began with the shares at $150 when trading at the January 2025 peak. It would take shorts three days to cover, as the shorts are underwater following earnings. Also making it a good bullish bet, software stocks were feared after AI threats, but some are mounting a comeback amid strong earnings.

Our recommended call has a leverage ratio of 5.9 and will double on a 17.1% rise in the underlying equity
