QQQ back to being glued above 600
If looking only at index levels at the beginning and end of terms, or from election day to election day, the sleepy period is remarkably similar to fruity’s previous term. Interestingly, the Dow grew more for fruity, but SPY and QQQ ran about the same.
6 straight green days on QQQ and the bears are fighting for their lives right now just to get a -0.3% that is going to get wiped in 30 seconds at open
Yup. Up,down,sideways lol… I stepped out… QQQ just looked like it had no direction that made sense. We’ll see… When the chart say go.
Roll the Option man, QQQ is coming back down.... Cease fire won't hold long
Get rich quick schemes don't work. Trade QQQ shares instead of options that expire worthless.
QQQ and SPY almost at All Time Highs holyyyyyy 🚀 🚀 🚀
QQQ almost back to all time highs, that was a face ripper rally last few days 🚀 🚀
Lmao the bears are so angry they missed out on a +3% QQQ day
Goy slop! The ceasefire is goy slop! QQQ puts pls
Thanks for the tip but US SPY/QQQ/IWM is prob the most I'll do for the near future.
Sept 2025 and Aug 2024, last times QQQ had 7+ consecutive green days. Today was 6 days.
My play is QQQ puts for 4/17
-3% QQQ tomorrow or I jack off my uncle jk I was gonna do that tn anyway hehe
It’s simple…. Don’t sell… lol I know it’s difficult to ride the wave sometimes, but sometimes you just gotta ride it and not worry about it from day to day. Certainly, it sucks to see you’re in the negative, but hopefully you have a portfolio diversified well enough that you aren’t getting destroyed all at once. And I’m going to beat the curve and combat any comments about QQQ being a diversified portfolio. Sure, it’s diversified in the literal sense that there’s multiple companies, but a huge part of a diversified portfolio is that the stocks are not all in the same industries. QQQ is very tech heavy, so the industry diversification doesn’t quite hold up.
^This. Holding QQQ puts for May. I think shorts will be fine.
I am holding a QQQ put into tomorrow and now I am convinced QQQ will skyrocket because you regards are so sure the market will dump tomorrow.
It’s going to be pushed to ETFs and MF that track NASDAQ 100 like QQQ so there’s that

If wallstreet didn’t buy it then we wouldn’t have closed above the 50 DMA on QQQ and SPY on a gap up overnight.
What I'm seeing: QQQ is well above Spx is right on it Spy is right underneath /Es is well above Idk who to believe
I've taken 2 approaches over the past 25 years. I put money into the broad index funds - SPY/VOO and QQQ/QQQM. Over time, the index has consistently increased revenues/profits/distributions. I then put money into the stocks of growing companies, and from their 10Q's and 10K's, I can confirm they are consistently growing revenues/profits/distributions over time. Ultimately you are buying ownership into a business - which is very different than the broader economy. You'll are trying to "make sense" of issues don't matter in the long run; that's why you are unable to reach conclusions.
Not yet. Wait until 3:50 to do the QQQ. But yeah since We’re not sure what stock whether its Tsla or Meta that’ll be hit the hardest QQQ might be the way
Feels like a market crash. *checks charts* QQQ is up 2.4% today. Oh.
Today was by far my best trading day of the year - I had TSLA puts and bought some 1DTE QQQ calls as TACO insurance - those went 10x and I was like "hey, it's fine my TSLA puts went deep red, I'm still way up" - then the TSLA puts came back to above yesterday. I'm still wondering WTF is happening
MSFT going red on a monster QQQ day 🤣🤌
lmao i sold already. if this shit cant even have a green day when QQQ is up 3% God only knows when QQQ goes red. the stock is dead
MMs in control of SPY and QQQ. You have to play one of their underlying stocks. Watch out for GOOGL and META (this week anyway. Last week was MSFT and NVDIA/AAPL) they appear to be the anchor stocks to keep them propped up, so scalping is your only real option there.
My QQQ put sacrificed itself for my gains today https://preview.redd.it/k94mommjf0ug1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a6e5d72e600114214270e740c1a89eb0dcf3b14e
by Friday's close, SPY and QQQ will be red for the week
Anyone playing SPY or QQQ 0DTE’s is just setting money on fire. You have to pick a ticker or allow at minimum a day so you can let it move overnight. MMs have been pinning and Theta fucking everyone playing dailies on them for a minute.
Same bro same on the QQQ puts lmao.
Uso call up 20% (bought it today) it expieres 7/17 133.65 break even i'm down thousands overall because of puts on QQQ (lmao) Do i sell this call now or wait?

MSFT going red on a day where QQQ is +3% lmao this trash is done for
Last week they used MSFT and some NVDA and AAPL to prop up QQQ and SPY. Looks like this week is META w/ some GOOGL and AMZN. 675$ is the number today, they buy and sell META accordingly.
The winning move is to fullport atm QQQ 0dte puts and say they are raising rates by 10%. That should get things moving. Infinite money glitch
Yeah, it's a real pain that brokerages restricted everyone from buying during the troughs of 2024. Oh wait, I bought at $16.91/sh on 2/5/24, which currently is beating SPY and QQQ since then.

QQQ call up 1000% meanwhile apple up 150% and immediately dump to 80% at open Best opportunity of the year and apple scams us
I panic closed some QQQ calls I sold at open. Really wish I hadn't. Odds are pretty good if I hadn't I would have broken even.
IDK why yall trade SPY, QQQ is far easier.
I sold my QQQ calls yesterday because my scalp was losing money. Had I held the call through close I woulda been rich. Today I buy the dip after the initial drop and it just keeps going down without any sign of stopping with FOMC looming in the distance. I've now given so much money to someone who will probably buy lube and cocaine. I think I'm done trading permanently. This is no longer viable
I do feel that opportunity cost is harder to calculate. I agree it's there. QQQ up what 70% over the last 5 years? That doesn't translate to 70k, though as I doubt OP had 100k lump sum exactly 5 years ago. Probably still significant though 30k-40k.
Israel bombing the shit out of Lebanon and Iran because they weren’t included in talks and now ceasefire broken. Thanks team. QQQ red by lunch.
It’s basically just another QQQ it’s retarded
My QQQ 600 0DTEs haven’t budged, needs more panic
We were in correction territory like 3 weeks ago. Before every major market crash we have seen a dead cat bounce of 10% following entering of a correction. 613 on the QQQ is the top and we may not even hit that. This is a generational opportunity to buy leap puts, -70% on the Q’s if you want >10x
The fact that my 4/9 QQQ 578 puts aren’t fucking worthless but have actually gained money today says a lot.

Ah, I just bought gold a few days ago. Didn't gain as much as QQQ, but it felt more defensive vs betting against the market entirely.
I had a QQQ call expiring today. Sold at 60% profit. If I had held to this morning it would have been 200% profit.
Yea I’m thinking this is a good sell opportunity. Going short again, buying puts on IWM and QQQ couple weeks out
this is the most "me" trading day ever missed a lot of the rip, now making money to the short side of QQQ on what's pretty clearly an overexuberant short term move I made money going long the whole way down, and my net is +8% on the year versus -2% on the underlying.
I bought a call on the QQQ yesterday for $200 just sold it this morning for $1671 that’s more than two weeks of my wage slave job pays me, it’s funny how little we are paid for actually doing hard tangible labor but you can make money out of thin air laying in bed holding an options contract, it ruins your perception of money, like now I’m supposed to go to work and be paid $100 for a days work? Lmaoooooo
Bought QQQ call for $7 at 3:59pm yesterday. Sold it at the open for $150.
Buys calls at open QQQ: Massive red candles the size of the empire state building with no sign of stopping the falling knife
Don't know why QQQ is dipping, but I will gladly buy more at a discount
I was expecting at least 4% on QQQ. I’m a greedy, spoiled bol
I mean 3-4 hours before Trump was texting and talking to every journalist in America. The QQQ went from -2% to positive while the market was still open. Everyone saw this coming from a mile
I guess a mea culpa is forthcoming. I honestly thought the markets would get hammered yesterday. The DOW closed well off its low (-500) to finish the day -85. Pre-market AMD +10, MRVL +6.5, AMAT +21 (too bad I sold some of the position on Monday), NVDA +6.5, GOOG +12, AMZN +9, ORCL +6, PANW +4 ( yesterday +8),QQQ +20 etc. Obviously all based on the two week moratorium concerning the Iran conflict. Once again, those "in the know" will make a killing today. If anything is a get in and get out type of day if you bought on Monday, it's today. Short-term capital gains, pay the 40% and sit pretty with a 60% profit, or hope after two weeks this nonsense is resolved and the markets start behaving normally, so you hold good companies and not worry (too much) about geopolitical issues, inflation issues, GDP issues, unemployment issues etc. By 3:00pm est yesterday, it was very clear the markets were not going to nosedive, so if you had cash on the sidelines, you could have bought some well known, well run, forward thinking companies. I'm already 75% equity portfolio based, at my age I should be 40%, but I retired earlier than I wanted to, for family reasons, so I played the markets in a riskier fashion because I had much less income. Funny, I wanted to selloff last October/November and pay the 20% capital gains this year, but I decided on one more year (read: a bit too greedy) and pay capital gains in 2027. Who saw this Iranian debacle coming? It really came out of nowhere. So, I will definitely be paring down and headed to a more safe haven, but still holding some blue chip stocks. For those investors in the 25-45 range and could stomach the ups and downs (I dealt with '00, '07-'08, '20, '22) I firmly believe, (unlike the dot.com/internet bubble burst) AI is going nowhere. The surface has barely been scratched. If you have twenty five to thirty years of investing to look forward to, even if you want to play it safe by buying index funds/etfs, you should do very well for yourselves. I only wish!
QQQ 600 0dte at the first fake pump
I've been in the markets for over 25 years; since I gradudated college and started working. I own shares of SPY and QQQ for under $100. I had continued to buy more shares over the next decades along with some other ETF's and individual stocks. How is it that I'm exit liquidity? If you want to treat it as a lottery ticket or sports bet, well that's what you get out of it. If you want to treat it as an investment, that's what I got out of it.
Spy and QQQ calls seem too late to open now. Any other plays I can make with the few pennies left in my smoldering port today? Was thinking SQQQ EOW puts
Target price of QQQ for end of day?
I'm up over 100% on an at the money straddle on QQQ. I should have put in more money. Fug
Looking at QQQ, it's up so much. If this doesn't sell off, shorts will be so stuck it will squeeze all the way to all time high and even higher just for the shorts to get out of their positions. And if that happens, we're going meltup mode to like $900+ within a year. But yeah only if this gap doesn't close of course and we get the short squeeze first.
QQQ currently up 3.3% after hours. That would place it in the top 3 biggest gap up in qqq history according to chatgbt.
QQQ 0dte puts after the am pump is my play.
Glad I sold my SU calls today. Bummed I got distracted at work, I was going to buy a handful of QQQ lotto calls at close. Still holding some puts, but pretty much all TSLA, so I still don't feel bad. Probably pick up some 0DTE QQQ puts at open, seems too green for a fake ceasefire.
I was not myself, I had a large dose of hopium. I think that was the fckin bottom for the year. The market just had its way with my sqqq shares so sold all and placed in QQQ and deleted my app fuck it
OK so just to be clear on this: \-there is now reduced total global oil output due to the damage caused, release of strategic oil reserve is unlikely to totally buffer effects \-the straight is now under more scrutiny by Iran who now wants to charge \-this isn't a peace agreement but only a 2 week ceasefire and discussions don't even truly begin until Friday QQQ is at 609. This is where it was when the market overshot on a tech rally last November. We're literally higher than we were than when the Iran war officially first began. what???
If the market goes down, they profit off the Index puts. If it goes up, they profit from their long equities. Smart money uses Index options as insurance. A lot of people here, who are not smart, use them for directional plays. Check the P/C ratios for SPY and QQQ. They are almost always above 1.
Bers saw those $48M in QQQ puts today and thot it was a good idea to buy more lmfaooo 🤡
Someone answer me this question, serious response please What the fuck is the point of being a bear and buying puts on SPY QQQ? They are meant to only go up, what I’m saying is why bother time it and get puts when you can just wait for it to go down and take out a loan sell your house and buy leap calls on SPY, it’s guaranteed money, unlike puts where you have to time it to perfection just to make money, buying calls is risk free, it always ALWAYS pumps after going down sharply… It favours the bulls 100% of the time, I lost a lot of money buying puts and came to a conclusion that puts is the dumbest way to make money on SPY QQQ
Does anyone seriously think QQQ and S&P have any reason to break their peaks last November? I think we’re gonna trade sideways and/or down for awhile. Selling covered calls on all my positions tomorrow on this rally.
