$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ is set to report earnings soon — On November 19, after market close, and once again, all eyes are on the AI chip giant.
As the powerhouse behind the global AI boom, NVIDIA’s chips drive everything from data centers to advanced model training. Expectations for its revenue and gross margin are still high. AI demand keeps booming, the market’s anticipation for "beat-and-raise" results is intense. But with NVDA trading near record highs, many wonder if too much optimism is already priced in. 🤔
Recent history shows earnings days rarely stay quiet — NVDA often moves ±5–8% right after results, with big swings when the numbers surprise. Will this quarter ignite another rally, or trigger a quick pullback? 📈📉
🎯 Let’s discuss
How much will NVIDIA’s stock move on earnings day?
Share your play — What option strategy would you use?
Example:
Slight pullback after a huge run, selling a covered call to lock in gains and collect premium.
Up about 7% — AI demand still strong. I’d buy call spreads to capture upside with limited risk.
Big swing either way! I’m setting up a long straddle — high risk, but high reward
Common Earnings-Oriented Option Strategies
Covered Call
If you already hold NVDA shares, you can sell a call to earn premium and set a target selling price.
If NVDA stays below that strike, you keep both your shares and the premium. If it rises above, your shares may be called away — but at your chosen sale price. Useful when you’re moderately bullish or neutral and want to collect income.
Vertical Spread
Bull Put Spread. If you expect NVDA to rise slightly or trade sideways. Sell a put at a higher strike and buy a put at a lower strike. You earn premium income while limiting downside risk.
Bear Call Spread. If you expect NVDA to fall slightly or stay flat. Sell a call at a lower strike and buy another at a higher strike. You collect premium, and your potential loss is capped if NVDA rises.
These strategies are useful when you expect limited movement and want defined risk and return.
Long straddle
If you expect a major move but aren’t sure which direction: Buy one call and one put with the same strike and expiration. You profit if NVDA moves sharply up or down after earnings — but lose if the stock stays flat and volatility drops. This strategy is typically used around high-volatility events, like earnings.

Comments
For my earnings play, I prefer a neutral-to-mildly-bearish setup. I’d use a bear call spread — selling a slightly OTM call and buying a higher strike to cap risk. This lets me collect premium while positioning for a “good but not amazing” reaction, especially with implied volatility already inflated before earnings.
For the poll: A: No, I don’t think NVDA will close above $190 after earnings. For B, my choice is Bearish: Bear Call Spread, which matches my view that upside may be limited and a post-earnings cooldown is possible.

Probability ~60%: NVDA beats, guides modestly above consensus → +6% to +9% move to ~$204-208.
Bearish risk ~25%: Guide is flat or light → –8% to –12% move to ~$176-182.
Bull outlier ~15%: Massive beat + raised guide → +12% to +18% move to ~$218-225.
NVDA isn’t just another earnings beat; it’s a market tone-setter.
If NVDA surprises to the upside, the AI trade reignites, and your asymmetric plays gain oxygen.
If it disappoints, high-beta names may under-perform near-term while rotation seeks safe havens.
NVDA beats. Market reacts with a +7% move. Price targets $204–208.
The tape + macro + positioning all support this as the most realistic outcome.
Let’s see if Jensen delivers the shockwave the market expects. ⚡️
