$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ - The Nvidia options market is expected to replay last week's battle, with market makers continuing to pressure both calls and puts. The 900 calls ($NVDA 20240419 900 CALL$ ) and 850/800 puts ($NVDA 20240419 850 PUT$ , $NVDA 20240419 800 PUT$ ) remain the targets to be crushed.

My strategy is to buy low this earning season. Take a que from Singapore banks’ stock all breaking out and jump higher these days.
