Most of the directives in nginx have their default values​​. Please, check the 
documentation if you want to know them:

  http://nginx.org/r/ssl_protocols
  http://nginx.org/r/ssl_ciphers

Depends on your purposes. But since you asked, probably, it doesn't make
sense in your case.

In general, if all requests come in via HTTP, then the HTTPS support is 
meaningless.
