IWL and QQQ don’t tell anyone
Iran war is literally covered calls on QQQ and SMH. I will feel unhappier if QQQ straight to $800.
Look. I swung QQQ 711p MSFT 527p CRCL 82p which all went 5x to 10x but I sold them all . Then chased calls all day. Some days just are self inflicted
Next week is about time Burry will open some short on AI then QQQ goes to 800
You guys won't believe this but $QQQ will retest $550 in 2028
You’re young. Stop gambling imo, and invest in Roth IRA, ETFs like VOO, QQQ live below your means , be a millionaire w no debt by 50
You make a good point. Since 30-40% of my trades are QQQ, i should test it out on MNQ / NQ , maybe just fire up a PROP firm to first try it out.
Wait but our QQQ play! How am I gonna sell without you :screech: :screech: :screech:
QQQ opens down at 704 on Monday then we bounce again back to 712. That’s my prediction
Some more context, there's no real magic. Since my window is SO small you can kind of feel if it's going to bounce around. SPY/QQQ tends to bounce off round numbers so if i see it heading towards one I'll set a buy at where the option is likely to be when it's close, take the quick win. I'm always watching the 9EMA first and i'll get puts or calls depending on it's current move up or down when it tests the 9EMA. I've been thinking of how to automate w/ AI and i'll try it eventually but so far it's too much of a "feel".
Just sell QQQ straddles at strike at open. It's gonne be alright.
U planning to buy QQQ, MU or AMD calls with it?
All are 0DTE options (or 1 DTE with MU) -- I stuck to SPX/QQQ mainly but did a lot of MU these past few weeks as I learned it's levels and how it ran. I decided to go ITM half way through as it seemed smoother and more consistent. Most common strat was buying slightly ITM QQQ 15-20 contracts (or 1-3 SPX) and sell for that .10-.15 gain on QQQ and 0.20 - 0.30 on SPX. I trade off the 5-min chat and watch the 9EMA-21EMA + VWAP indicator i found on TradingView and also watch volume bars. Volume especially matters in doing off hour SPX trades which somehow have been super successful (like a big SPX move on low volume, i'll scalp some on a small reversal)
QQQ had party whole week, not just 2d
Normal? When QQQ bounces off the 200 EMA evrry other day? It'll probably go up or sideways then bounce off it down again in 1-2 days. The trend isn't looking good with it dipping 1-3% a day.
QQQ puts expiring Monday were expensive. Gave thought to selling a couple CSP but it seemed to good to be true.
holy shit you're right. $QQQ down a $1 after hours on a friday. not seen that in a loooong time.
QQQ +3% after Iran war 517th pause.
Cashed out of VOO and QQQ this week If Anthropic and OpenAI have no clothes, I think things could get ugly
If you buy 1k worth of OTM 0DTE puts on QQQ every day for a year you will almost certainly have a day where it flies 55x. Problem is there are quite a bit more than 55 trading days in a year. I’d actually love to see the data of someone who tries this, just very consistent small moonshot bets for an entire year. I’d guess it’s disappointing compared to responsible investors but far superior to the average 0DTE gambler.
Market's done a great job of conditioning everyone how it's gonna V. And that's exactly why bulls lost buying $QQQ 0dte calls at $720, then at $715 and then again at $710
No. I did a last ditch effort and put it all on qqq and then shut off my laptop. Guess what happened? QQQ had one of its worst days in a long time.
No options. I was pretty spooked from drawing down my TQQQ during tariffs that I didn't go back in for a couple weeks. I went for QQQ, then moved to AMD. With my style, yeah, it does involve being acutely aware of what's going on.
QQQ -7% since 10 days ago. -70% for this bear market.
QQQ at May 4 level. Semis down 15% from late May. The market peaked then, summer sucked and now Fall is going to shit.
I used ChatGPT to do a backtest. Project SCHD methodology back to 1999 (etf started in 2011, index a few years before that), and DCA between the two yearly. The criteria is: DCA into QQQ when the 3y returns were higher for SCHD. When QQQ had the higher 3y returns, make the contribution to SCHD. It obviously resulted in a lot more SCHD contributions than QQQ. But it was roughly on par (<5% less total return) than QQQ only with much less than half the max drawdown. I think it definitely has a place. I think “low duration” equities, otherwise known as defensive stocks, definitely have a place on the risk ladder of a well balanced portfolio. Look at any value-ish fund like SCHD, SCHV, DGRO, VTV, etc and you can see a shape that’s different from the stone-skipping shape of growth funds.
$QQQ will retest July low before midterms
So badly need a 5% quick jump in QQQ next week, LOL.
QQQ is down 5% in a fucking week
Imagine being me, an elite trader, trying to make it off a Wendy’s salary when you chucklefucks make 5x what I make a month and blow your wealth on 0DTE QQQ calls. inb4 broke and hating outside the club (even if it’s true)
*I would like to think that if I didn't put the last bit in QQQ it wouldn't have dipped as hard as it did.* *It's like destined. I feel some bears out there probably got to eat good from that.*
Let me finger my ass and see if it tells me QQQ will be red on Monday
Cursed market. Can we please have a gap up Sun night QQQ > $15 please bulls 😭
This week was just the 8th time the Nasdaq 100 has fallen all five trading days with a 2%+ drop on Friday. The next Monday was positive 5 of 7 times, while the next week was positive 6 of 7 times. $QQQ
Believe it or not, QQQ calls, AAPL puts
Yes I have a leap QQQ put about 6 mos out but I’m hedging with calls for Monday as I think we get a bit of a relief bounce here
I guess it really is always calls, my TLT/PEP/KO/MCD calls printed big this week LMAO🤌 long bonds short QQQ too easy. Next week buy back in tech. Just be reasonable dude, no need to call this "tImE tHe MaRkEt!!", just dont be regarded perma bol

I want to buy calls so bad on $QQQ but I already got burned on them yesterday
QQQ +18% from 1 year ago still
You'd think $QQQ goes to $715 next week but it's actually going to $700.

Gonna try to scalp some last minute QQQ 708 puts… and ofc it jumps up to $710…. Cmon…
Damn, got in too early on my QQQ 745 calls. But 5 months to expiry. So…
Dead? There is so much more QQQ to go down for the dip buyers :kek: :kek: :kek:

6%+ down week on QQQ. He is gonna fire Jensen and make Iran head of NVDA by Monday.
nah, that 710 QQQ barrier gonna hold
2 dollar bounce on the QQQ and it looks like nothing
OF COURSE they want QQQ over 710 to close the day.
If you are ready to see QQQ go down to 700 (and sell if it goes to 697.50 and hold for a while). We are near a major support. You can also take the elevator up and sleep better.
QQQ calls that were ITM this morning and don't expire until 11/27 now down -40%. Unreal.
Thought it would be more tbh with QQQ down almost 3%
QQQ puts was the play all day That shit is still drilling
QQQ gonna strike oil, then rocket to 800
Im gonna be rich. Expiration date10/19 Average cost $0.04 QQQ breakeven price $739.04 Contracts +1 Date bought 10/16
QQQ to 500 within the next 2 seconds
3% drop on QQQ is crazy; this shit was literally 760 last week
QQQ need to see 704-705 or even better, 700. Puts wall will send us back to the moon.
Had QQQ 711p MSFT 527p CRCL 82p that I swung and sold all this morning 😂
wish i didnt sell those QQQ 722p for 100 profit lmfao
Yes! But you wear them on your legs. VOO is a classy choice but some look good in a more modern QQQ
How come 709 call for QQQ expiring today is still above $1
Aight I'm out for the day after making some spending money on that last QQQ flush. See ya Monday regards.
I've started buying QQQ leaps.
July had no good reason to happen. This is a different situation. I expect a generational rally in the 6 months after midterms, but I think QQQ is going to the 680s before the end of next week.

Im short AMD and QQQ... Gonna short the shit out of SPCX on the mext bounce
its nice being all QQQ and SPY selling calls and buying more right now
57 mins until the margin call mayhem.... 700 QQQ puts in play...
If it's not a -5% on the QQQ is it even a real red day? They don't make red days like July anymore
You can trade SPY QQQ option from 7:30am to 9:25am . we can go full regarded now.
I went from 4k loss to 100 dollars profit, but if I wait, it would have been 33k profit. 10 750 QQQ puts(8k) that I bought couple of weeks ago, before the all time high, and I ridden that ATH back to the 100 profit. Still happy it's green not red.
Buying QQQ dip and it dipped even more sad
Because QQQ and SPY are specific tickers and if you’re playing options there’s a diffirence in liquidity
Foreigner question: why do you always refer to QQQ or SPX/SPY and not Nasdaq or NDX or SP500 ?
Couple months out QQQ calls here? 700 strike

that's it for today. QQQ will not close under 710.
SPY 2 percent down, QQQ 3 percent. I went on cash and just want a very good dip
Just got my QQQ -17.76 screenshot. USA USA USA
I was pretty sure we would get to QQQ 710, but I didnt think it would be this fast. Fuk man...
