How to burn money 101 NVDA calls SPY/QQQ puts That’s it
according to QQQ's list of holdings as of January 10, 2026 it held no Walmart shares at all. Not sure if QQQ is market cap weighted (i assume it is) but it'll have to buy up a decent amount of Walmart shares.
Closed out my GLD options and 95% of my AGQ position. Threw some of that cash into miners, leveraged Biotech, Target, MORT, XLP, RKT, UPS, Still waiting on some other plays to cash out within the next quarter or two. Thinking of closing out SPY/QQQ when SPY gets to $700-$710 and then just buying back on a fat dip
likely profit taking and a counterweight to smaller companies with less weighting on the index so they could moon on the day without moving SPY/QQQ too much.
Its so pointless to try to short it. This market never goes down more than an hour or two in the morning then everyone just buys SPY/QQQ calls on every dip and it V’s every single day. I have some short shares that im smoked on and trying to hold but giving up on puts, burned too much $$
ngl QQQ looks primed to overtake 630, SPY 700. I sold my puts for a measly profit, not holding overnight
That’s what I’m saying bro, while it may not be what people want to hear, a market correction is necessary, and in my opinion it’s coming soon. Gonna buy some SPY/QQQ puts if we keep going through the week, looking at $690 breakeven
Continue to short QQQ at 628.7, it ain't silver.
Talked myself into 0DTE QQQ 627p's Just some pocket change gambling. GL with eod plays, bull or bear.
BTC dying because 'crypto president' narrative is over. that is the real reasons. it has nothing to do with AI bubble fears; otherwise, QQQ would not be so strong. Trump bogged down in Venezuela and scandal means btc reserve never happening and back to 50k.
If QQQ can touch red today that be great
Hmm, trying to decide whether to cut and run on these EOD QQQ 630s
Shorted more QQQ at 628.1 and 628.2; Shorted more SLV at 78.1; Fuck the market-makers!
I had 629 QQQ Calls and 696/697 SPY calls I sold too...
Watched the charts all day just to yolo into QQQ puts 😭
QQQ up 1.5% today off 0 Jews
head and shoulders on QQQ dump inbound.
Actually knowing your risk appetite. It's easy to be balls deep into QQQ during the most insane bull run. But having your portfolio hit a 80% drawdown is something you have to live through to really understand if you can actually stomach the risk.
come on QQQ 628 and Ill be a good boy all week
Im going to start accumulating puts on QQQ that expire Friday and average down if it keeps pumping up. Wish me luck
Just bought 0.25 shares of an up and coming company I heard of called QQQ. Financials look good, chart is amazing. I will panic and sell if we drop .005% at any point

Thank god I sold my QQQ 626p instantly at open
I’m not a bear but I think puts on QQQ here be reasonable.
QQQ obviously is going to gap up at this level
SHorted QQQ at 626.7, gap fill then down again.
QQQ 630 weeklies fuck it

If QQQ doesn’t dump to 624 i’m jumping off a bridge
AI slop is getting a bit tired, but I'll play. "Upper arm" doesn't exist. It's the wealth effect causing people to spend money. Once the stock market corrects during the next recession it will crush these sectors. The "Lower arm" is already dead. They are surviving on debt and the 10% credit card interest just cut them off from credit. Now they have to go take out personal loans and loan sharks (at you guessed it 20%+ like a credit card). This also kills rewards for the people still spending, so now people won't even get cash back. How to play? Sadly, buying precious metals at all time highs feels like the best play. You could try to ride the inflation wave with I-Bonds, but that's a long lock up / opportunity cost. You can always just buy QQQ and hedge the position since we'll probably crack up another 50-200% before it crashes to 2022 levels.
Continue to short QQQ at 626.5, deja vu.
QQQ 624 P at .92 im gonna shit my fucking pants
Shorted more QQQ at 625.7, its jover.

🥭 just had to do some dumb shit right as QQQ was breaking out🤡🤡
Yeah, small cap futures say this big cap move is probably not going to hold. They should be fully participatory if there are real concerns, now having said that, this keeps QQQ in spin its wheels form for now.
My QQQ shorts finally are ripping, regards been laughing at me 😆😆😆
I think the top holdings in VT are similar to the top holdings in QQQ. Gold does nothing for long periods of time and then goes way up. It just went way up so this might not be the best time for that one. I'd probably just put the gold money into Bitcoin (IBIT).
I feel liberated from my QQQ calls
QQQ 1% drop in the pre-market
Insane... I need SPY and QQQ to stabilize right now. Pre-Market bols need to step up. What an overreaction
I put ~10k on SPY and QQQ puts that are now deep ITM. They’re up 16k right now and I can’t sleep lol.
So what are we opening at? QQQ -1.5%? SPY -1%?
If only you guys could feel the joy of holding QQQ puts expiring tomorrow like I do
He just fundamentally doesn't understand what he is doing to the economy. The 10% interest rate on credit cards will make banks stop offering rewards & subprime borrowers will lose access to credit cards. The $200b MBS buyback from F&F will be a 5 month stop-gap, but it'll likely just keep the 10 year yield stable and/or MAYBE we'll see 25bp reduction in interest rates for mortgages loans. He may successfully cause a melt-up, but that's only because he doesn't understand that we are overheating right now and higher stock market doesn't mean healthier. We need a mean reversion and some pain to cool off, then we can go higher. I do have puts for QQQ expiry december, but that's just out of an abundance of caution. There is way too much volatility in the market and none of it is priced in (See VIX).
QQQ is also down 1% so far since Friday. The weekend sell share orders probably came and started crashing things. Could have to do with the federal investigation into The Fed chair Powell or maybe has to do with Trump bombing something or tweeting something. They could also be preloading some of the. Reports that are supposed to be released on Tuesday and Wednesday that are anticipated for good news. But it is low liquidity right now. So, things could bounce back but it's not a good look for tomorrow morning. I got 5 0dte's at $627 that expire today and they were at the money on Friday but no longer but historically. QQQ doesn't do well the Monday after CES according to the historical charts.

Looking for advice before I allocate my investments for my Roth IRA and general investing! Currently 21 y/o and intend on holding this until retirement Contributed $14,000 to an IRA but have yet to buy anything with it as well as $14.000 that I'm planning on investing just generally into the market. Here's what I'm thinking: **ETFS** 40% VOO 10% VTI 10% VXUS 20% $QQQ **Single stocks** 10% $CAT 10% $AMZN Should I be investing money in the Roth IRA vs general money in the market differently? Doing this through Schwab if it matters Any advice is appreciated, thank you for your time!
Nice my QQQ puts are going to print
I’m also largely in a lot of ETFS …….. QQQ biggest holding
I need a slight dip in silver and a slight rip in QQQ tomorrow please, thanks Mr.Market Man 🎩
Gold and Silver soaring is the canary in the QQQ mine Schiller as high as before the dot com crash The stock market is about to go to shit Gold to 10K EOY
All I'm hearing is that I can collect massive premiums for selling OTM puts right now. Here's the price history: [https://imgur.com/a/cRpaCKX](https://imgur.com/a/cRpaCKX) \--- SLV is great - it has expirations mid week similar to QQQ and SPX. I can more or less sell \~3-4% OTM silver CSPs EOD and collect a \~0.5% premium. If assigned wheel it. If not - close for immediate profit & sell more CSPs at open that expire EOD. Let them ride & expire worthless. Leverage it \~2:1 I've made over 10% on risked capital last week doing this without taking a single loss! With the \~2:1 leverage, I'd need SLV to drop \~9% in a single day to actually lose money (\~4% OTM CSPs gives 4% discount) and a 5% drop below that means 5% \* 2 -> 10% loss. \--- But rock is shiny, and shiny is good.
You can hold 2x leveraged for longer periods, but they will have greater volatility decay than normal stocks. However the past year GOOGL 72% while GGLL is up 140% so in good times it does not really matter. In bad times, 2x obviously will be bad. 2x can make most sense in something like a Roth, where you have no ability to add above the maximum yearly amount, and where you can easily sell the 2x if the market goes to crap or you change your opinion on Google's prospects. The way to probably not use 2x is to buy 50k of GGLL and blow another 50k (or leave 50k in savings). Normally you would be better off just buying 100k of the stock. Most negative comments about leverage are about 3x, where decay is much more problematic. For example, the past year 1x QQQ is +24%, while 2x QLD is +38% and 3x TQQQ is +47%. The 3x did not even manage to do 2x better than QQQ, but of course it also did significantly better dollar for dollar. There certainly is no harm in buying a few shares of GGLL, and then seeing how you feel about it some weeks from now. Also check out r/LETFs to talk with more people who hold leveraged ETFs for longer periods.
So I’ve been selling cover calls for the last 6 months and have been pretty successful. 15k this month thus far. I did play a call on Bloom the other day prior to it pumping which brought me 17500. I’m selling cover calls on QQQ and NVDA. Mostly weekly’s and a few monthly’s
I've had QQQ for decades and it's up 1,400%. I've never sold any. Just ride the markets out.
QQQ went up like 1% on friday while crypto did jack shit.
QQQ has to hit ATH before any sell off occurs
Crypto shrekking. QQQ calls at open
So many. Panic sold my entire account one morning because I thought the market was crashing. Had 100 shares of AMC at 4 dollars and it went to the moon the next day. Thought Palantir was all hype and didn’t buy in at 25 a share. Got into 0DTE QQQ options and developed a pretty bad gambling addiction.
I'd put most of it in QQQ, 20% in IBIT, 10% in a money market, buy a house.
What would you recommend as your top 5 for an experienced investor? I really enjoyed the psychology of money although I am not sure if it changed anything for me. Have been getting into income investing (I am older) and have been reading Brett Owens, Steve Selengut and Steve Bavaria. Read some of these others years ago, did not find it helped much What would you recommend for my college age kid who needs to understand basic investing concepts and does not know the difference between QQQ and SPY or even what they are?
NDX is 41 times the notional value of QQQ. A 10 point spread on NDX is equivalent to a 25 cent spread in QQQ. Do you really want something lower?
Take your winnings off the table and stick it in VOO or QQQ.
QQQ is not and has never been a tech fund
WMT moved from NYSE to Nasdaq. What the hell? Back in my day, QQQ was just tech stocks.
Years ago I bought access to the Zacks Top 10 Stocks to buy and hold for the year…I believe they do a really good job researching those. I split it up between that and QQQ.
I have dia, rsp, brk\_b and S&P, QQQ indices for over 10 years. I have proven that some of these blue chip stocks are excellent investment. Owning 30 stocks like dia has merit.
Each to their own, I’m comfortable investing in european smallcaps. I’m beating the S&P500 (tho not QQQ) last 5Y without holding US tech 😎

This was sort of known already right. Good news for QQQ actually getting a reputable giant in there.
How old is she? When she's 50+, it seems a bit risky to explore HOT stocks and I'd suggest just index funds such as SPY and QQQ.

Honestly 6 weeks + a bull-ish tape is basically the best-case backtest, so I wouldn’t get too attached to the +4% yet. The allocation looks like “default Reddit core portfolio + a little crypto,” which isn’t *bad*, but the overlap (VTI + QQQ + AAPL/MSFT) means you’re kinda doubling down on the same thing and calling it diversification. If you like the AI angle, I think tools like Prospero are better for quick context and risk flags, but the actual portfolio construction still needs you to set tighter rules around concentration and rebalancing.
