Yes the overall returns of the covered call 0DTE ETFs are less. The max. drawdown is more. Look at the round hill QDTE.
XDTE/QDTE/RDTE do this as well, sell low delta short term calls (0dtes), and they also underperforming their underlying indices because of the liberation day turmoil.
With $200K I would put 30% in QDTE, which I have now, that pays dividend of around .8% weekly. The rest in leaps of solid growing stocks with relatively high IV than sell PCC of them. Between QDTE and covered calls you’ll be able to pocket a good and secure 40% to 50% yearly. Currently I got about $100K working my way to $200K than I’ll be living of the premium and dividend.
When shit hits the fan VIX will go from $15 to over $25 within hours. Everyone knows that it’s just a matter of time until it crashes and crashes hard. Most of my money is in GLD GLX GLXJ SIL and SILJ, 600 shares of QDTE and $75,000 in cash.
If you let QDTE do the 0dte on qqq for you, you'd be up 9.65% YTD
Currently I’m in SPYI QQQI FSCO ASGI BTCI QDTE ULTY MAGY NVDY. I’m keeping my on OMAH as well, I want to give it a bit more time to get a track record.
better to leave it to the pro's...QDTE...get paid dividends every Friday with covered call options
Well first off, obviously it's impossible to reliably make \~$14K usd/yr on a \~$11.5K usd investment; you would need over 100% returns per year which isn't feasible without taking extreme amounts of risk Unsure on the euro market but at least in the US market, tickers like $XDTE and $QDTE pay weekly and you'd be looking at around $50usd per week of dividend income with that 11.5K investment Especially at your age this is not a great idea though, as instead of letting your investment compound, you are cashing out all of the growth. Unless you will starve on the street without this money I wouldn't focus on dividends right now
2-5% per year? Or per month? If per year then just bit SGOV or BIL. They yield 4.5% risk free. If you want 2-5%+per month then buy high yield ETF from Yieldmax (e.g TSLY, MSTY) or roundhill (e.g. QDTE, XDTE). If you want 2-5% per week then go with options trading
If you want more gains, you need more risk. People are scared of risk because they don’t actually understand it or they can’t stomach it, but at the end of the day your reward is proportional to your risk. If you like dividend payers, I would go MSTY for ultra risk and any of XDTE/QDTE/RDTE for medium risk. I bought CONY at $20 and am down heavy on it, but if you can buy in at $7 that would be a great cost basis. You should learn how these funds work if you want to buy them, though. They WILL go deep red on occasion and you need to understand how that happens ahead of time so you don’t panic.
Not buying anymore right now. I've got QDTE building up cash while remaining relatively stable and growing but come next month I'm not excited. As long as the dividend keeps paying out at a similar value I'm not too worried about the underlying value. There is nav erosion after that wacky pump of 10% in a day a month ago but between its value rn + the dividend payouts it's still outperforming the NASDAQ
i have no clue i just searched up 0dte on robinhood and a bunch popped up like:Roundhill Innovation-100 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (QDTE) or the one i listed above #
I have JEPQ, JEPI, XDTE, QDTE in a roth ira. So, with no tax considerations, does it mean there is zero advantage to me holding these? Do they fall less than than corresponding spy/qqq if the market goes down? Wondering if I shd just sell these and swap with corresponding SPY or QQQ
DYOR DYOR DYOR - I'm just telling you what I would consider doing so you can consider. Do not just jump into these ideas. You still have close to $200k left. I would take the loss on TSLA, sell 425 NVDA (keeping 500), and spread it around a little to get your covered calls on multiple things. I would consider (DYOR) AVGO or SMCI. You would also get a bunch of IWM and swing daily CCs. 500 NVDA should net you $500 a week on OTM CCs 200 AVGO similar 200 IWM between $100 - $200 each day M-F Maybe add a few hundred UBER with the rest. Also probably $1 a share each week on CCs. Another option is to just take the $200k an go into higher yield ETFs like QDTE. All-in on QDTE with $200k will make you an average of $1000 a week. Not the highest grossing option, and you need to watch the underlying capital but its still an option.
Why does RH show QDTE dropping ever since it started but every other chart shows it going up with QQQ the entire time?
My favorites are JEPQ which pays monthly and QDTE/XDTE/RDTE which pay weekly. Those 4 funds put together cover the overwhelming majority of my bills for me.
Watching paychecks roll in every Friday sure is fun! QDTE/RDTE/XDTE
XDTE, RDTE, QDTE. Take a look
You can get about $3k/month by putting about $300k into CC etfs like JEPQ, JEPI, FEPI, SPYI, QDTE, XDTE, etc. Target about 12% average return. These do have some higher risk and volatility but they aren't as risky as the super-high yield products that lose NAV quickly. Without drip, you may need to occasionally reinvest some of the proceeds to keep up with inflation. Don't forget that you'll need to pay taxes on this income and it's often as ordinary income, not capital gains. The flaw with those products is that you lose the upside. When the underlying stock shoots up, your share price falls behind. So put the remaining $200k into broad-based etfs such as VOO, QQQ, etc on drip. It's not perfect but it'll meet your goals given your principal investment.
Personally I'm a huge fan of Consumer Staples, SCHD and a decent chunk of income such as JEPQ/QDTE.
Why wouldn’t a $40 Strike call on QDTE not make a ton of money if the shares went up to $40/share?
Depends on your risk tolerance. No risk tolerance, go CLOI. Some risk tolerance, go XYLD, XDTE QYLD QDTE. And onward it goes to more risk more reward.
I just ran the numbers on QDTE and JEPQ vs QQQ for an entire year, QQQ returns 5% to 12% more annually vs these dividend stocks after tax. That's anywhere from 50% to 300% better returns... Why would anyone buy QDTE or JEPQ over QQQ?
Yes I should add to my QDTE/XDTE/RDTE positions
VOO is another good etf that follows the s&p500. You may want to sit tight and just watch the market for a bit before jumping in. Everyone's freaking the freak out about tariffs going into effect, so this week is most likely going to be a volatile one. This week.... this month... maybe this year. Should be exciting anyway. But yeah, VOO, VTI, SPY, and QQQ would be my recommendations for broad market investments. QQQ is going to be more volatile because it's so tech heavy. Just for fun, you should look at QDTE. It's an etf that generates income selling synthetic covered call options in the nasdaq 100. Their yield is 35% and their expense ratio is .95%. They do weekly payouts for dividends. Obviously going to be a crazy high risk etf, but it's intriguing as hell. The dudes running it have got to have monster dongs. (I don't own any of these, just fyi.)
JEPQ, XDTE, and possibly GPIX are the best combo I've found. JEPI seemed pretty lame actually, seemed like it was almost always mildly in the red, and the dividends weren't great. GPIX seemed a bit better in that it wasn't "always" red. QDTE has awful NAV erosion. BITO has an amazingly high dividend, but huge swings. I would almost just gamble with short puts, and if you get exercised, just keep it for the next dividend.
The only time MYND they gave dividend is December 2023 and never before and never after. If you are looking for aggressive dividends, go for some actively managed ETFs JEPI (monthly dividends) JEPQ (monthly dividends) QDTE (weekly dividends) RYLD QYLD
Half AIPI and half QDTE then turn on DRIP
buy and hold? none, you only make money when you sell, i started in the market at 25 and at 48 i WISH i had looked into and learned about trading options back then. don't buy anyone's bullshit course or discord, watch YouTube and learn what you can. if you want to buy and hold something, open a Roth IRA, max it out every year and split the money between solid ETFs my kids' IRAs (they're 10, 10 and 11) are in KO, QDTE and XDTE mine is in QDTE, CUBE, REXR, SCHD, SMH, SMR, VIG, VO QDTE's weekly dividend is paying my mortgage right now... if it goes belly-up i'l rebalance the IRAs, but that weekly compounding is 
QDTE is currently paying > 25%, and paying weekly.
Assuming the buying power he has is settled cash he's just over 180k for a port right now assuming he has already cashed out. I messaged the guy last night telling him if he wants to get his mill back or just live well + a job he can buy a shitload of QDTE and collect off the weekly dividends. With the amount of shares he can afford it's a payout of like 2000 a month right now. That's not a massive amount, certainly not enough to live off of (had he not been regarded and bought these calls to start and went into QDTE he'd be able to pull closer to 10k a month from dividends, that shit prints money) but it is enough to live very well while still working and growing the dividend money.
Just buy stocks you fucking moron holy shit you're going to put yourself back in debt by being a gambling addict! STOP BETTING and just take what you've got left and ride it over time. Just buy QDTE or some shit for weekly dividends and gamble with the dividends if you need to scratch that itch so friggin bad. Get help. Please.
XDTE QDTE RDTE pay weekly. Jepi jepq fepi ymax pay monthly You can be a booglehead or supercharge your life with options or in this case option based ETFs. And it's not this or that you can do both. Just requires more learning.
Is it a good idea to buy $1000 worth of QDTE every month?
QDTE is an ETF where they do the covered calls and once you buy the etf you match those returns. It's for those who want CC returns without actually doing CC.
I only see monthly options on QDTE. Why is it talked about ODTE?
If you want the index performance with higher potential returns look at QDTE, XDTE, and RDTE. That's what I'd invest in.
There is also QDTE for the same thing on qqq, but it's a lot more volatile.
It's a different type of product, it's for income rather than asset growth. At least QDTE and XDTE. QDTE especially is paying a shitload in weekly dividends. Those are RoundHill tho, not Goldman. And they sell daily 0DTE covered calls. I am building positions in those two but not a large part of my portfolio.
What about using it to earn some passive income. Either weekly through QDTE/RDTE or monthly through JEPQ/JEPI?
Got: XDTE - S&P weekly paying 0DTE RDTE - Russell 2000 weekly paying 0DTE QDTE - NASDAQ weekly paying 0DTE YMAX - Yieldmax Fund of Funds EQCL (dot) TO - basically VT but with CCs and a 12% yield on cost We'll either explode with each other or do well.
Hey! Thanks for the input! I’m planning to drop another $1k into a mix of stocks. I’m keeping a close eyes out on these stocks right now on dividends to Cody’s on compound interest growth! Which includes a More SCHD or any other Charles Schwab stocks like SCHG and SCHX, JEPQ, SPYI, QDTE, and PFLT. Other growth stocks I’m keeping a close eyes on are Humana, UPS, and Boeing. Important note that I see is: Right now all Vanguard stocks are too high and the elections will determine the future of many growth stocks.
Pour all your money into QDTE and then go get it again in 10 years.
I got in on the theta gang. But I don't have the patience, so I did it through RDTE, XDTE, QDTE, JEPQ, and JEPI. I figured having professionals sell my calls was worth a small premium.
I am done yolo'ing puts/calls for a while. Going full port XDTE RDTE QDTE and JEPQ. If I am going to be regarded, I might as well be regarded on autopilot while I go fuck up some other part of my life.
In my Roth I have 1 share of XDTE, QDTE, and RDTE each to give me weekly dividends. Those dividends are the only thing I play with. Basically it cost me about $140 and every week I get a little less than a dollar to add to my stock picks.
What would be the benchmark for option returns ? Also I mean if you don’t have time to be caught up on the market and buy a fund like QDTE or XDTE would that be easier or the loss of return is not worth it Thirdly wouldn’t the returns on these funds be realized returns where as the returns from price appreciation of the SPY be unrealized returns so would a down turn in the stock market make you lose more of your gains
You could drop it into a professionally managed fund that makes its money from 0dte options. $66k will get you around 1500 shares of QDTE which pays weekly. 1500 shares this week would have paid a $315 distribution. Some weeks have been as high as double that. It’s not without risk, but probably less risky than doing it yourself, at least until you learn more about options trading.
If you have 66k, put 30k in QDTE/XDTE/RDTE and use the other 36k to sell far OTM credit spreads.
0DTE etf QDTE and XDTE are producing good weekly distributions. Can these perform well long term?
A quick glance shows QDTE started trading around 48 in April 2024, now in the 42 range. SPY had an April peak around 525 now about 570. Looks like QDTE pays about 20 percent in annual dividends. Back of the envelope shows a wash between straight SPY and this new ETF. The one large caveat is that during a crash or mid-day trading halt, low liquidity ETFs may have extremely wide bid ask spreads because it becomes difficult to arbitrage away risk during fast markets. If a person wants to invest a small amount in these new ETFs go ahead. All in? Not worth the risk for what is at most a modest return bonus.
Dump some tech and replace them with JEPQ and QDTE.
JEPI, QDTE, and XDTE all suck. Stay away.
Because I’ve seen the rise of new stocks like JEPI JEPQ XDTE QDTE and think it could be an option for generating income with less volatility…. Looking for opinions
https://testfol.io/?d=eJytj7FuAjEMht%2FFc4brwpAZmEHtAELo5F58V7fBAcccqk737g09tVQd2oVMsZx83%2F8P0MX0jHGFiocMfoBsqFYHNAIP4IAk%2FJimbY8R%2FENVjgMMrzVLG9E4CXjTMzloML%2B0MV3AV7ehbpVOBbMl1PheYJpiZOnqC0u4vp1Vo4NjUmtT5FTS7AYQPFzV6%2FnTovxg6SnbnHsOJVf%2B0imVCigNLX8ZjJs30ok03W%2BsI2lDYp9Fxr2DoNiVvKP7lj6utvdyTqj%2FlZs79tz83XM%2FfgBkiKl0 These two options writing funds are literally just tracking the index and gathering yield based on writing options. Even QDTE, which is a different index, is still just completely correlated to the S&P. If the market is very volatile and choppy without too much upward walk, we expect covered calls to outperform. In normal times, we expect just holding the underlying to outperform. Long term, these funds will underperform the market. Also, youre paying income tax on the covered call yield. Maybe for you thats minimal since youre poor, but long term its better to have capital gains tax rate, which you get for holding the S&P for longer than a year. After a year of getting you "regular income" from trimming off shares, youd be paying 0-15% depending on your income on cap gains tax. That immediately outperforms the CC funds.
MSTY, AMZY, APLY, QDTE, XDTE $2000 in each, do not reinvest the dividends. With the Dividends buy IWM, when you reach 100 shares start selling ODTE covered calls on IWM, 20-30 delta.
Using my Roth and IRA for QDTE and XDTE shares. Receiving weekly dividends totaling $1450/week.
50k QDTE, 50k XDTE, 50k MGK
You simply back test using income ETF such such as SVOL, QYLD, RYLD, QDTE or monthly dividend payers like O. Your plan works well, when stock goes sideways, looses when stocks fall (slightly set off by the premium collected) and limited upside during bull runs.
Bought in at 25 , SL at 25.6 let’s see if I am right lol , worst case my QDTE is still paying nicely.
I'm extremely heavy into SCHD and consumer staples for dividend growth. I'm hoping GOOGL turns into a dividend powerhouse too! But I'm also heavy into JEPQ/JEPI and now QDTE/XDTE for weekly/monthly income. I could cover all my bills with them if I wanted to but I manually reinvest for more shares each month/week and take the rest.
I used to do this poor man's covered call trade. It works. Until it does not. I find you just tie up too much capital. Personally it is not worth the effort if you ask me. Instead I just buy the ETF QDTE or XDTE. For doing daily trades to make income I prefer something like that strategy I outlined here. I get to reset every day so I do not have any long term exposure to the market.

Are you factoring that outside of a 401k? I don't really facotor my 401k in my monthly savings because it is automatic and already 20% of each check. I'm thinking of DCA more into my taxable accounts after maxing out the backdoor ROTH at the beginning of each year. Im thinking of buying 1x VOO each month and then use the rest to put into my wheeling brokerage account, with any proceeds to go into XDTE or QDTE for a slow but hoefully long term DRIP play.
I read that you get dividends for holding QDTE and XDTE, so do you two kind of dividends? One from premiums from call writing and the other for holding the underline index? Or how does the dividends work? You get the dividends weekly?
Damn you could have put that 1mil into QDTE and made 10k a week on their weekly dividends. I would much have rather dealt with that then just tossing 1mill into the trash.
You should just buy QDTE and make about $20k a week on dividends.
Bit the bullet and bought into QDTE
Just buy some QDTE or XDTE and let the experts do the work for you - successfully.
How have QDTE and XDTE been around?
It’s in the title of this post. QDTE
Performs a lot better so far. QDTE has outperformed QQQ by a few points, JEPQ has underperformed by a few points.
I'm buying into QDTE and XDTE, just gonna buy little by little to follow it. I like the concept. I like it's not some crazy spec thing, it's selling synthetic covered calls on NASDAQ and S&P500 micro index (a micro index tracks the index but just at 1% of the price). The only holdings are extremely deep ITM calls on the actual index (not the micro index) and a small portion in a govt bond fund for liquidity and I think that is where they hold cash. Then daily they sell 0DTE calls that are covered by the long call position. They collect the premium, I assume that goes into the bond fund, they take their 1% somewhere along the way, and pay out weekly. It seems too good to be true so I spent some time thinking about what could go wrong. The big downside IMO is they stop hitting good numbers and people exit the fund, your principal will tank, maybe all the way to 0 when the fund closes. If market shoots up and they get called over and over that could also tank it. That's limited a bit because then covered calls are on the microindex, and I assume their algorithm is hopefully good enough to adjust the covered call price to maximize premium while avoiding getting called (go more OTM or closer to the money). Another downside is market dips heavy and their long call position dips heavy but that's kind of a built in downside to all investing. But their held calls are deep ITM leaps, which I assume will get rolled. I also thought maybe if Round Hill goes belly up on riskier investments that could screw up this ETF. These are literally the first 2 0DTE ETFs ever, so I wonder either if there's some downside I am not seeing or if this too good to be true scheme will blow up somehow. On the surface it seems like very low risk for high returns, irrespective of a bull or bear market. Note the payouts are income so they are heavily taxed compared to cap gains. I am too chicken to go full port into it but will start building a position tomorrow. I had already put in my orders and then saw this post which further confirmed my view on these. Also noting if you were worried you could also hedge with puts or calls on the index, if you have a giant position in this it might be worth actually doing some math on that shit. You can trade options on QDTE itself and hedge with a put on the ETF but there's no volume or options activity so I don't think that's a viable hedge at this time. I am not hedging because I'm not taking a huge position.
Tell me why I shouldn’t invest all in QDTE
Nothing you said is right. No, you don’t have infinite loses on a sold covered call. QDTE pays ~40-60%
Glad I'm not the only one looking at QDTE. Weekly DRIP is pretty OP
Risk. NAV erosion. The actual index performing better over the long run. Taxes in a taxable account. Some distributions are return of capital rather than purely income. QDTE seems to suffer from NAV erosion more than XDTE. Both suffer less than YMAX funds. IMO, S&P500 covered call strategy has less implied risk than QQQ.
This strategy is actually pretty interesting since the cover calls are closed daily. It’s really just premium harvesting. Take a look at round hills website for QDTE , So far the performance is pretty solid, and they have almost double the assets under Managment within a month. Obviously not fool proof lol , But for now, I’m gonna let this baby ride.
Does QDTE go up when the market goes up or when the market goes down?
Long-Term: SPUS, QQQM, VT, JEPQ Riskier: CONY, NVDY, MSTY, QDTE
CLM, CRF, OXLC, ECC and ACP shares are relatively stable and low cost. They will get you approximately 16%-20% yield and pay monthly. Dividends are consistent, although CLM, CRF resets its dividend at the end of October for the new year starting in January. Another more aggressive option is QDTE which is paid weekly with around a 41%+ dividend. Remember that if not held in a tax deferred account you may need to pay quarterly taxes on the dividends. You may want to consider doing a DRIP to acquire more share quicker. Divide the amount by equal (or however you want) amounts in each of the above. You could also add in a high yield long term CD or TBill, if you feel you need some feeling of security.
You're welcome. I am glad the information is helpful. You may feel that I do that funds from YieldMax or the funds like QDTE and SVOL have their place, but you should also focus on growth assets too. I still old a few shares of Apple from years past. I think my cost is around $30. It pays to hold good growth companies or put money into index funds too.
my only suggestion is that "the trend is your friend" - many of the leveraged ETFs are designed to be in and out on the same day (like a 0DTE). Another option is to outsource your options trading via something like XDTE and QDTE - you pay a fee, but there's 0 stress overall. My centerpiece has always been NVDY: it's a free money glitch.
QDTE - weekly divs based on nasdaq 100
I couldn't figure out how to automate the whole 0DTE thing, so just went with QDTE sitting in a dark corner of my portfolio. It's got shitty volume, probably run by scammers, likely to degrade in a big way on the next crash, but the weekly tendies are fun.
Sell it all and buy QDTE and watch your portfolio grow weekly
This may not be popular but I would take a look at SVOL, QDTE, and XDTE in addition to HYSA and Muni bonds that are tax free. You want high(er) returns while limiting downside risk. I believe a major correction is coming and I've sold off most of my stocks and index ETFs and most of my cash is in a 5% HYSA plus the above ETFs.
If I may offer some advice, There is this ETF “QDTE” it’s worth taking a look at they pay a weekly dividend
QDTE, XDTE and more are all popping up now.
There's weekly paying dividend etfs on the spy and qqq as well, XDTE and QDTE.
Look into div stocks. Holding tradional stocks like VOO isn’t gonna get you anywhere these days riding the coattails of Wall Street unless you’re writing covered calls or cash secured puts (options). You need to be in more proactive stocks. I’m 29 and have learned this. Stocks like JEPQ not only have good capital appreciation but they pay you monthly in high dividends so you basically DCA for free. Also, look into YMAX, QDTE (pays weekly but newer), FEPI. These stocks are newer so don’t put as much into them, but def keep your eye on them. JEPQ performs similar to SPY. Also, look into options. Options are the best way to invest now which these ETF’s use and how their dividends are distributed. Covered calls on SSO would be a good start until you work your way up to SPY and QQQ which are the 2 big dog market cap ETFs that pay extraordinarily well. But its capital intensive. Good luck bro!
You can throw a chunk of it in XDTE, and QDTE for weekly checks roundhill seems promising
