It actually does worse cause it opens you to unlimited upside loss. 1. Scenario 1: QQQ rockets 200% over a year. The SQQQ you're shorting goes to $0. The maximum you can lose is 100%. TQQQ however would go up around 600%. So you'd be fucked. 2. Scenario 2: QQQ plummets to near 0 over a year. TQQQ basically goes to 0. SQQQ however goes up 600%. So you'd be fucked. First guy is just a super glue eater who's so dumb their retardation it infects others.
This was a wierd rally based more on QQQ being oversold rather than the market actually being positive about the crisis. IWM, RSP and Euro stocks gave back most of the gains through the day. BOJ will decide the outcome atleast for tomorrow.
Lol, you *shorted* SPCX???? WTF man. Elon is friends with Trump, SpaceX is really the only game in town (Earth) if you want to put stuff in space, Starlink is probably the best and most widespread ISP, Google contracts, Gov't contracts, forced buys by the Russrl, other wtf's, QQQ and SPY eventually. C'mon man.
The answer is to keep buying and not divest, there is no "other place" to put your money. What kind of answer are you looking for? Some obvious answer? Some secret answer? There is no such thing. "Just hold cash in the dips! Bonds would be better, SQQQ would be the best when the market is crashing" - holy shit! Didn't realize that, thanks. My personal views on this are you shouldn't hold QQQ (Nasdaq) in the first place; it's not diversified enough. S&P500 is better. But you do you. Instead of asking what is best to buy when the crash comes, consider more how to respond. If there's a crash: 1. Don't divest. Just keep buying through the crash. Looking at how the line goes overall isn't the same thing as asking how well your dollar-cost-averaged portfolio is doing overall. 2. If there is some "historic" crash (25%+), THEN seriously consider buying double- and triple-leveraged index funds going forward, holding them as long as you're comfortable for. 3. The best response to a crash is not divestment but instead to keep buying through it. Portfolios that simply extend their "cash-out" point are best protected simply by adding 3-5 years to your final divestment (investment exit point). Use AI to examine 20 and 30 years rolling periods all over the last two to three centuries to see how well this works out. If you are flexible with 3-5 years of your exit point you will find you can weather most any storm and come out ahead. Trying to time the market is a fool's errand for most.
I don’t think you’re right. I think they have to get it all at 4pm but the process is more complicated than that. But it’s not an accumulation after day 15- that would not be acceptable to QQQ. Somehow 9% I think of unique shares at 4pm being turned over can be a big event. The 6/18 should have one such event then 7/2 I think is another
About 70%. I do 0dte Spy and QQQ occasionally and I rarely close it in red. Although it does leave money on the table but it’s doable
It's so retarded I had to do a double take because my IQ cratered reading and thinking about those trades. Anyways, it's better to do it with options but then you're not even doing anything to QQQ so much as running a "short volatility" trade. Sure you could jump through hoops and take unlimited upside risk like that but it's easier to just use UXVY/SVXY options if you wanted to play VOL.
I'm predicting 400 by the end of the month (if it actually enters QQQ by then). Stop thinking about the off-market stock and think of it as a 555.6 million share company and it's not that crazy.
Musk added Bill Gates net worth today. That's fking wild SpaceX is going to pump until July 5th at a minimum - QQQ addition

Will QQQ pass SPY tomorrow?
QQQ puts. Put your money where your mouth is
Too soon, at least wait until after Russell and QQQ are forced to buy in since that will probably boost the stock further, but having been burned on TSLA puts, it's a risky game. You're potentially fighting against people who want to be sold a dream.
QQQ has been in a $2 window since 11:10 am EDT. Absolutely legacy performance by thetagang.
Just short btc and go long QQQ , SSO, CHPY. cannot lose money
btc dump hard again. shorting this is always free money when combined with QQQ
Sack up and put it all on QQQ puts
The algorithms are brutal -- QQQ pumps three percent and gets pinned for most of the day
QQQ ticker is bugged like one week already, lazy mods fix it FFS
One lesson here is that diversification often looks unnecessary in hindsight because we already know which asset class won. The real test is whether you would have held 100% QQQ through multiple 30%–35% drawdowns without abandoning the strategy, because the best-performing investment is only useful if you can stick with it.
Why is IWM not moving as well as QQQ or SPY
Ain’t no way QQQ ends up 3% for the day. Pullback down to junk 735 at least
I was thinking this morning hmmm QQQ up 3% so NOK should probably be up 8-10% after it dumped harder last week than the indexes. Haha what wishful thinking that was!
It's a smaller company, but ITRN is really cool. They do vehicle locational tracking for like stolen cars, growing a bit more in the US, but mainly ex-us markets. Subscriptions continue to grow, so they have stable FCF growth and the company has no debt. They make so much money that they did a special dividend last quarter and the thing doesn't have expensive fundamentals by any means. I think the yield is 3% on it. It's smaller than a common stock people by for dividends, but the thing has better asset performance than the SPY or QQQ.
I want my QQQ volatility back
Reformed bear here. I lost 800k in 2023. Please listen to me bears First...you are right. Your thesis is right. We are fucked...but they will stop at nothing to pump this. They will mortgage your children's future. They don't care. We will eventually have our lost decade though. So what do we do? Yolo puts? No... Just go for value QQQ Performance from 2000 to 2015 was ZERO % returns.. XLP was 300% XLU was 150%
I need some advice/reassurance I guess? I’ve started the whole investing journey about a month ago now. Had the expected happiness when it went yo, and the absolute depression when it went down. Now, I’ve been reading up a bit more and want to learn. I’m currently 90% S&P (VOO) and 10% Nasdaq (QQQ). I’m non US and non EU. Should i bother changing from VOO to VUAA for my next round of buying? Or is the difference marginal enough? Also, should I go for more of a 70/30 split US/International? If so, VT?
QQQ 750 today and I'll be done for the week. Thanks
Keep all your savings in QQQ, I guess
Please stop talking about QQQ.
Holding QQQ will make you buy it
I'll tell you I'm confused too. For QQQ for example, will they be accepting it 15 trading days after the IPO, or will they be accepting it after their next rebalancing at the end of the next quarter? I think I need to call Schlossberg and demand some answers.
Well some index funds do. But many don't. Invesco QQQ accepts baskets of stocks from authorized purchasers and issues new QQQ stocks for them. The composition of the new baskets will change, but Invesco doesn't have to rush out and buy a bunch of SpaceX to equal 2% of its holdings. As time goes by the amount of SpaceX they hold will approach 2% as they receive more baskets.
If I inherited 400k, plan to go 100% equities, I would spread out over 4 to 6 months. I would probably plan $30k in SPY and $20k in QQQ, alternating the first and third Monday of the month. Park the cash waiting to go into the market in a very liquid, medium yield, bond ETF such as SPHY so you get some decent interest. Sell a week ahead what you will invest the next week. Over 8 month totally invest. Depending on the markets, if there is a significant pullback, then speed it up some. All depends on your comfort with the risk - going all in with a risk for losses or time based and missed gains over several months.
Bought 50 June 18 QQQ $750 calls....can I contact the Lambo dealer soon?
u think qqq will move a dollar or two? are you braindead? I dont need protection for a dollar or two move. Its intended to protect against a breakdown. If QQQ ends up at 730 at close, ill be up a thousand + on that put. shouldnt buy it right ofc not
Nasdaq is too small to reasonably impact the market, beyond a small shock. QQQ only has a 21B market cap, at 1.5% you're looking at 315m worth being bought. S+P index funds ETF have well over a trillion of market cap combined. Which even at a lower weight would add more pressure
Hey QQQ…why couldn’t you do this Friday when I had 730 and 740 calls u CUNT
The fuck are you talking about? Did QQQ go up 9x in the past year?
grabbed a 0dte QQQ 740P as protection. cheap shit 48$
MU about to underperform vs QQQ, can't make this shit up
I'm celebrating this pump by eating corn dogs with a hint of salmon. There was leftover salmon bits in the air fryer. Fly QQQ, ***fly!!!!***
It’s hilarious QQQ was above spy forever until like last year. Shits wild
Need to stop trading QQQ the moves are so fucking sudden/big
QQQ slipped under 743 My jimmies remain unrustled
QQQ expected weekly move was only 743...
I couldn’t resist and sold a QQQ call at 741.9. Then it went up to 743, and it looks like it might go even higher. It’s profit, sure, but… Fuck my bear.
QQQ up 3%, bears say "Iran resolution priced in." Only thing priced in is their incompetence LOL
Good lord QQQ jump teleporting
A lot of good answers here already, just adding three things: Sequence‑of‑returns risk matters way more in retirement: the bad years early on hurt disproportionately when you’re withdrawing. A strategy that is effectively “long QQQ + short convexity” makes that sequence risk nastier, especially if you need the premium every month. The wheel is a high‑attention, high‑maintenance strategy. That mental load is fine when you’re working and experimenting; it’s very different when your rent and food depend on rolling 7DTE QQQ options forever. For FIRE I’d treat the wheel as a satellite sleeve, not the core plan (maybe 10–20% once you’ve traded it live through a few ugly regimes) and let the main portfolio follow a simple, evidence‑based allocation plus a conservative withdrawal rate.
QQQ is 4 dollars from hitting ATHs close. Just hit it already
QQQ is 4 dollars from ATH, just hit it already!!
QQQ was at 686 four trading days ago
"**Stop using valuations that makes sense**." LOL. In 1999 QQQ went up to 56x forward P/E. We're at 26x. WHAT bubble?
I’ve made a small loss on QQQ 0dte call. It was a mistake not to buy it first thing this morning.
If I recall correctly during dot com even SPY500 tanked -50% over 2 year period. More on QQQ for 3 years. Anyone who had any common sense wanted to get out of stocks especially those tech stocks. MSFT stayed underwater for 16 years not a few years. The Intel inside story was there always had more processors than they knew what to do. It was not until last year resurgence fueled by the govt and private sector. I had my own indices so losses were not as significant may be -37%. But I quickly cashed out much of the equity market went into saving bond and non-qualified annuity. Objective was cash preservation not wanting to expose risk more. That was achieved with 5-6% state income tax free and inflation adj(+55% from 2000-2025 era). My annuity one pays 3.5% from one tax free and another in equity. The first one depleted while equity is w/d monthly and I have more left than initially deposited. After reading two commentaries below I still think I did the proper thing stayed partially out of the stock market and put in very safe almost tax free products. Today the annuity may not look that attractive so is inflation adj saving bonds. To prove that point I bought SPY, DIA, Equal weight SPY, Brk\_B for comparison for almost 10 years. Any crazy all red day, I notice Brk\_B often was the lone green fund while DIA is well diversified enough. Long term investment is best optimized having several indices moving funds from one to others.
QQQ pinned to start the morning
QQQ price action is lowkey evil rn
Gonna reach QQQ and SPY parity today. Legendary.
I lose 100% of the QQQ 0DTE'S that I play
1dte 745 QQQ calls were $200 this morning and you didnt even hesitate to not only buy them but hold
Both SPY and QQQ about $5 away from closing at their all time highs
Just yo help the 🐂, bought few SPY and QQQ puts 😝
hahaha sold my QQQ 0dtes way too early
Un.fucking.real. the pump held. Bought QQQ, MU calls all for this week at close on Friday. Also some MUU. All of them went 2.5-5x. Gonna leave 2 QQQ 744’s for Wednesday open for now since I feel like I owe it to myself. 6k profit. My largest short term swing ever.
"Well that's uncommonly kind of you" thank you 😄 $749 profit just now, rolled it into a QQQ 0DTE for 740. V happy because 749US is over $1,000 CDN so this is a milestone 😄

How do yall successfully trade 0dte SPY + QQQ?
I mean the entire board is GREEN. For too long I've told myself I will invest and I never do. Full ported DRAM and QQQ,$75k on Fri. Safe to say I'm a bit happy, will pull profits and ride it.
Still gonna play around with QQQ calls for funsies

The biggest takeaway for me isn’t that QQQ still did well. It’s that almost nobody would feel smart holding something that stayed underwater for 12–14 years. Long-term investing sounds easy until the “long term” starts with a lost decade.
Yea looks like it takes QQQ 15 years to get back to its pre dot com bubble level, while it takes SPY roughly 12 years.
To whom tho? Once you have a multi-generational timeline, suddenly risky but long-horizon bets like QQQ make a lot of sense.
Pick the ones which have a loss and sell those, will offset some of your gains. Eventually you don’t want to have all this money in 1 company so diversify in something you belief in (VT, QQQ, …).
This is a dumb take that assumes you put 100% of your money into QQQ at the top then never bought again ie histories worst investor.
Calls on QQQ after open. This will pop today boys and girls
Right, but I’m saying I’d probably start transitioning away from the riskier indexes the closer I get to retirement. Obviously most people wouldn’t buy and hold QQQ for 26 years (unless it truly proved it could consistently out pace other popular indices). More just a fun exercise!
The sensible answer is to rotate your money into safe assets, if you want to stay in equity, cash rich companies tend to weather the storm well, think QQQ…hell even buy some Berkshire The wallstreet bets answer is simple, buy puts
An 80%+ 15 year drawdown for QQQ followed by another 40% drawdown during Covid. Perfect for retirees.
ugh had 5x QQQ 720c 6/26.. sold 4 mid day Friday 😭
Grab some QQQ and SQQQ, always be making money.
And pay attention to what QQQ was doing when you zoom out a little. 1999 to 2014 it was essentially flat and didn’t get back to its pre-dot com bubble levels until 2014-2015.
SPY $9 away from all time closing high. QQQ $10 away. Will we hit it today?
Get some QQQ or SPY LEAPs 😂
Will QQQ hit all time high today or is it far fetch?
I find it so weird how the war affects QQQ so much. Like aren't tech companies just doing their thing as if it isn't happening?
I think QQQ for SpaceX plus SpaceX is starting options on Tuesday
