A way to get long Nvidia on the dip with less risk using options

Nvidia (NVDA) remains as the undisputed leader of the AI revolution, capitalizing on the insatiable compute required to power the AI models of today and the future. Following its latest earnings report, which exceeded expectations across all key segments, NVDA is trading at a compelling valuation relative to its peers. From a technical perspective, the recent pullback after the earnings report provides an attractive entry point for bullish exposure with strong risk/reward potential. Note, Nvidia was down an additional 3% on Wednesday. If we look at the chart for NVDA, it recently pulled back to its $136 support level, a critical zone that has previously acted as a major support and resistance level. The stock remains in an overall uptrend, outperforming the S & P 500, with relative strength remaining strong. This pullback offers an opportunity to add bullish exposure, particularly as momentum indicators stabilize and suggest a resumption of the prior trend. A move back toward the $156 resistance level could materialize in the coming weeks, driven by renewed investor confidence. Compelling valuation NVDA’s earnings highlighted its dominance in the AI and accelerated computing space. Their Blackwell GPUs are in full production and revenue reached a record $35.1 billion, up 94% year-over-year. The data center segment, accounting for $30.8 billion in revenue (+112% YoY), continues to be the backbone of NVIDIA’s growth. NVDA trades at 33 times forward earnings, a premium to peers but justifiable given its expected EPS growth of 64% and revenue growth of 56%, compared to industry medians of 13.7% and 6.7%, respectively. Its 56% net margin significantly surpassing competitors which highlight why NVDA deserves its premium valuation while still offering substantial upside potential.
