Who's playing $NVDA earnings?
Always a monster vol event — premium gets crushed fast post-print. If you're in, define your edge: directional bet on the number, a gamma scalp into the move, or selling inflated IV and letting theta work?
Personally, I like post-earnings dip-buys more than pre-event lotto tickets. $NVDA has a habit of fading the initial reaction, then re-pricing higher over the next few sessions if the guide is clean. That's where the real edge is — not guessing the headline.
If you're long into the print, know your stop. If you're selling premium, size it so a 10% gap doesn't wreck you. And if you're sitting out, no shame — sometimes the best trade is no trade.
