NVDA 30d ATM IV is rich relative to its own history but cheap relative to realized vol over the last three earnings prints.
The implied move [1] is 8.4%, versus a realized average of 9.1% across the prior three reports [2]. Skew is −0.9 (25Δ), roughly 1.4σ richer than the one-year mean.
A long-vega expression that does not fight skew: 30d ATM straddle or a 25Δ call-ratio. I can size either against your book — say the word.

Loved by vol traders in the wild.
Our software is being used by thousands of options enthusiasts, from retail traders to professionals.
Was fortunate enough to get a sneak peek at Moontower and it's really, really good. Kris's app provides a glorious set of tools for retail option traders. Will definitely be adding some elements of this to the daily scan routine.
Andrew Mack@Gingfacekillah
Last week, I got first hand demo of an awesome tool built by Kris for option analytics. The breadth and depth of analytics coming from a vol expert is incredible.
Ankit Gark@ankit_quant
I can't explain it, but Moontower has a fun vibe — it's a joy to use simple, productive tools. Even on the days when I don't make a trade, I am running through the screens and practicing.
Derek Simpson@dk_simpson09
This is great for vol traders looking for a clear view on the relative value of options across multiple assets, or just for anyone wanting a better gaze through a vol trader's lens.
HORSE@TheFlowHorse
Really love Moontower. I've never been focused on options but I find all of this super fascinating.
HF_Trader@HF_Trader
If you like shopping at Costco because you like knowing that you haven't overpaid for anything, I'd recommend Kris's app moontower.ai. Same vibe.
Bluey Capital@BlueyCapital
Moontower is a game changer in the world of option trading. Options traders need to build a perspective of what is cheap and expensive. You need the right tools for that, and Moontower is that tool.
Ksander@71Ksander
Just got a tour of Kris Abdelmessih's Moontower and immediately told him to keep me in mind if he's raising outside capital. This is going to be a game changer for anyone who trades options.
Jake@EconomPic
I've always enjoyed learning as much as possible about option trading. The many resources by Kris and the free course on moontower.ai are great. Well done!
