How to Trade NVIDIA Q2 Earnings—Made Simple

OptionsBB

08-26

2025 Q2 Earnings Preview:

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Q2 revenue expected at $46–47B, slightly above Wall Street estimates.
Q3 guidance expected at $53–54B+, again just a bit above consensus.
Growth continues to be driven by data center demand.
This quarter’s results exclude China H20 chip revenue.
With hyperscalers ramping up capex, 2026 outlook is very strong.

Earnings Takeaway:

Uncertainty in China means results will not massively beat expectations.
Implied earnings move: 6.6%, likely trading range $168–192.

Trading Strategy:

No major negatives, so a break below the range is unlikely—good setup for selling puts.
Sell puts before earnings, close them at the open after earnings.
If you own shares, sell out-of-the-money calls as a hedge for extra yield.

Reference Strikes & Expiry:

Covered call strategy: $NVDA 20250829 195.0 CALL$ (86% win rate)
Put selling strategy: $NVDA 20250829 167.5 PUT$ (82% win rate)

Up or down after earnings is irrelevant. This is a long, put it in the closet and dust it off in 5 years. Some people just don’t get it. smh
