yeah but for how long. I doubt it will outperform QQQ over the next 10-20 years
i hope QQQ goes to 735 tmrw so i print
I got a 746c on QQQ for tomorrow. Prolly gonna donate my money but whatever
it's the year 2069. SPY is still flat while QQQ went bankrupt. all 500 stonks in SPY r red but SPY is still flat somehow
To the QQQ holder, it has good price action real estate above.
Open up whatever back testing you want and run it. I've run it on SPX in Tasty Trade. I will do it on QQQ when I get on my desktop. >index options are MORE EXPENSIVE in vol terms, relative to historicals, than the single stocks that make up the indexes. this is very common knowledge And where did I disagree with you? I am literally telling you that buying and holding the index (SPX) will outperform the options strategies that I have looked at on it. Why would I care what "the whole street" runs?
I included in my earlier reply that the short call at delta 20 was still basically within 1 SD for its expected move, that's not worth it all to me for the premium collected relative to the risk. I will have to backtest it when I get on my desktop but I would be surprised if buying DTE 45 spreads at delta 20 (or pick one) would outperform just holding QQQ and you are taking on more risk with the former.
Alexa, when was the last -3% trading day for QQQ?
i trade on QQQ & yes i know. I bought at 16:14 eastern time
Sometimes I read comments here talking about insane pumps or dumps and I go check and its like .5% movements on QQQ or spy
It was 2dte actually. So I bought yesterday and expiry was tomorrow. Yesterday QQQ was trading around 747. Then it dropped significantly overnight.
Honestly I dont know what will pump, I am just putting in everything. Either of QQQ SMH IGV has to pump up if they decide to pump the market. I just dont know which it will be.
We ending green on QQQ arent we
Is it too much to ask for one more QQQ pump
Wife’s boyfriend said it’s my turn to spam “QQQ candle!” in the DD thread

QQQ needs to just pick something and stick to it atp
QQQ is just insane now to look at the daily charts and pretend this is all normal
I have individual stocks but you can get a safer exposure to same through QQQ IGV and SMH.
Whatever an equal split between VOO, QQQ, and NVDA gets me.
Just put equal in QQQ, IGV and SMH. Who knows what one they will pump more.
Everything, cause you never know what they will pump, but obviously stay in the tech sector, QQQ or IGV may be safe options.
My main issue with QQQ is IV is always pretty low. Looking at Nov 27, delta 20 short put (700), going 10 wide only gives you a credit of 1.32
Pretty similar here. I mostly sell put spreads on QQQ a month or so out, defined risk so I sleep at night. Biggest thing that helped me was deciding when I'd get out before I ever got in, and not putting too much on any single trade. And yeah, I stay away from earnings too. Learned that one the expensive way.
It seems like we are in month 3 of low volume for QQQ/SPY etc.., I amassuming this has to do with all the macro events going on for the most part. Trying to educate myself and learn from this group. Any input from anyone?
Remember when QQQ used to drop 2% at open lol

#When semi stocks pump QQQ pumps like hell. When semi stocks crash and burn QQQ is barely flat. LMAO🤌🏾
QQQ is in a crazy range doing funky things
Good point. I've primarily been tracking relative strength through IWM/QQQ over the past 20–60 trading sessions, rather than using a comprehensive breadth series. The persistent underperformance of smaller companies relative to Nasdaq leadership is what initially caught my attention, particularly within AI infrastructure. I agree that relative weakness alone doesn't establish broader market deterioration. Comparing advance/decline lines, the percentage of constituents above their 50/200-day moving averages, and participation across unrelated sectors would provide a much stronger picture. I'm trying to distinguish a temporary rotation away from high-beta growth from a broader deterioration in risk appetite. Do you have a preferred breadth indicator or methodology for identifying when sector-specific weakness starts becoming systemic?
I’m long QQQ, down 50% on my calls. You should buy puts if you like money lmao.
Zero gains for the QQQ since the start of June lol.
for what tho- MU, DRAM, QQQ, NBIS, SOXL? Can’t decide
Bears need a 20% dump on QQQ just to break even on the year 😂😂😂
Zoom out bears, QQQ is still up 21% YTD 😂😂🤣
I finally realized what was holding back QQQ: see GOOG just dumping again while QQQ rising, make no mistake
QQQ calls just keep rising
Would be so cool if QQQ makes a new intraday high
% chance of QQQ closing @745 today?
QQQ 745 at close. PLEASE this one time
Anyone buying puts at lows? SPY/QQQ
Nice day so far out of SPY QQQ puts now lotto QQQ calls 🌮 bet
I was in QQQ puts and down a tremendous amount, i finally sold at b/e when it dumped just for it to 100%. Would’ve made 15k
I bought QQQ 0dte calls in the worst time today listening to you guys. I should have bought puts
QQQ is sad right now. has no confidence to pump
QQQ please take SPY down with you

Looks like QQQ just wanted to try to close the gap to the upside. I think it closes below 740 but am too chicken to make a large bet
Who tf is holding QQQ up, quit it

that five minute half percent QQQ pump just absolutely fucked me
Just go MSCI all world and Some QQQ and hold. Dont invest it if you need it the comming 5 years - you'll be fine. Sometimes it just helps to zoom out on the graph. Time in the market beats tming the market. Also dont look at it everyday, as emotions are your worst enemy as you just discoverdd
QQQ and Cybersecurity stocks PUMPING
I should’ve gotten QQQ puts instead of SPY puts at least that trades accordingly
Bers proclaiming bubble burst on QQQ -0.4% kek

No need new models, new spending, next 5 years That crash semiconductors badly, 70-90% semiconductors get correction $SPY $QQQ $SMH
I almost bought.QQQ calls yesterday instead of SPY
RSP/QQQ is a useful quick check, but it also mixes size and sector composition. To distinguish rotation from broader weakness, I’d compare equal- and cap-weighted series within the same growth/AI-infrastructure universe, then check its advance/decline line and share above the 50/200-day averages against other sectors. Weakness isolated to that group suggests a narrower rotation; deterioration across sectors is broader—neither is a stand-alone forecast. Which breadth series are you using?
I can already feel it. We're ending green on QQQ
One day of S&P over QQQ and we are calling the tech boom over?
$SPY $QQQ $SMH finally AI bubble burst with Rogue AI-models. Current AI models good enough for 8.5 Billion population performance improvements. No need new models, new spending, next 5 years. That crash semiconductors badly, 70-90% semiconductor stocks get big correction
The QQQ ‘crash’ range was 740-735. I’m afraid and confused what’s the move tomorrow morning
We gonna eat good with QQQ put spreads :happy:
This is why I trade my most aggressive positions (eg stocks, options, QQQ) in my self-directed retirement accounts. Post tax brokerage funds are mostly in long term ETFs that I don’t sell and only add to.
Mostly bers in AH and AH QQQ went lower and now futes not looking great either. So bers think they look smart
Per Schwab, QQQ is trending down on the 5 day and flattening out for the month and year. SPY is trending down for the day, within bounds for the 5 day, but up for the month and year. Were I given over to technical analysis, my gut feeling is that it’s a little shaky.
Still underperforming ETFs like VGT, barely beating QQQ.
You should invest it in QQQ 0dte calls and double it, it’s pretty simple strategy
There’s nothing to worry about. They will hike rates again and QQQ will rip up another 10%.
Put all $500k in VUSXX and receive 3.85% risk free and state/local tax free. Then DCA into SPY and QQQ monthly over the next 60 months.
