Nothing survives the V.. Nothing ever will. Getting this market, especially the QQQ to stay down is so beyond impossible, it's wild that people even believe its a possibility. So yes, anyone celebrating red futures when they just press a button and make it green is delusional.

I’d only be grasping at straws really. Dealer positioning is positive info Wednesday, 780 on SPY, up to 760 on QQQ. Hard to tell if they are just hedging a robust TACO or if it’s MU earnings (expectations are bullish). There are a mix of positive and negative catalysts this week, and the rate of change in positioning is much faster with 10yr so high. I have some QQQ weekly calls purchased yesterday, that I’d close out if we see 745-750 before Wednesday close.

Marry SPY Fuck QQQ Kill VOO
I know. It's unfortunate because it's actually painfully easy to double your money using options. Real example: QQQ was down 11 and some change this morning. I think to myself, "I bet it will move up at least 3 dollars throughout the day and recover some." I buy a few ITM calls for 2.88. I set the limit for 6.00. Since it gains a dollar when it moves up one dollar when it eventually did move up (way more than) 3 dollars in that one god candle I doubled my money. S-K. No need for anything wild or complex. I double my bets like this all the time by just betting the distance a price will move from an anchored point.
Are my QQQ calls looking good for tomorrow morning?
Looks kind of shitty, not looking forward to tomorrow. Give me a 10-15% correction on both SPY and QQQ, better than this slow bleeding. Everything is still overpriced and nothing is worth buying.
QQQ puts Jan expire will print no question 95% chance! Thinking about dropping $5k on this.....
At least you didn’t buy QQQ
Smooth brains short QQQ on any rallies.

They’re taking off downside protection rather than paying up for new puts (so this really isn’t bearish).

Realistically QQQ is gonna end the year up like 35% while 95% of the stocks in it will be at 52 week lows

SMH or QQQ calls?
It looks like SPX will touch 7800 at some point this week. That’s what the positioning was looking like on Friday and it seems relatively unchanged today, despite the heavy selling and choppy close today. I want to see QQQ 745-750 and I’ll close out most of my qqq calls but leave some runners. My target is to have them closed out before Wed close
I play QQQ looking for 743 to print close to market open. Then 739 for close. QQQ has a bit more action than SPY.
Good job though) Is there a big difference between SPY and QQQ? I tried them once and got slightly intimidated. The bid-ask spread was very big and the volume was not
That gap from 726 to 722 on QQQ is getting filled in the next month, guaranteed.
Somebody knows something. QQQ $660p $150 million position. https://preview.redd.it/hoz1m325lbsh1.jpeg?width=1796&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bea205a1618046603dd7d13e0c7c2e32ab70fa4f
Yeahhh QQQ we not seeing 750 till next year. 🫡💯
SMH or QQQ calls ?
The title establishes that TQQQ rallied today, but provides no percentage move, volume, or index comparison; those details distinguish a broad rally from a volatile spike. How did QQQ perform alongside it?

nvm SQQQ doesnt have calls, just buy QQQ puts
1000 shares of QQQ is so boring
QQQ 750 EOW so u/Federal-Watch makes bank :dance:
🥭 should formalize Jensen’s actual job and make him the new SI press secretary. In charge of pumping various SI stocks and making sure QQQ always goes up.
We’ll see. I think QQQ closes above 750 EOW, but if not I’ll be giving half my gains back :hmmm:
I had QQQ puts, and switched to calls. Most profitable day in Septembull!! :chad:
if QQQ falls through 735 today we are completely fucked

The obvious thought is that yields and oil and mortgage rates cause a correction in equities. Which means instead, oil and yields will plummet and stocks will shoot to ATHs +5%. QQQ 777 by Xmas

Important to hold the SPY and QQQ almost flat, so if you look back they pic random stocks to pump at any given time.
Covering a little here (QQQ) and I know I will regret it
For real. Thanks op. Just bought my weekly buy of $300 VOO and $100 of QQQ. At least it will crash before the dividends pay out
Every bounce is a trap. We will be lucky if QQQ and SPY end up positive on the year
It's crazy that a 5 point down move in QQQ feels big LMFAO
WELCOME... TO THE BLACK MONDAY OF THE 2000s! SPY -67, QQQ -69, NVDA -99 ALL TODAY! PUTS = GENERATIONAL WEALTH
Your puts are cooked. Tesla is inverse QQQ.Watch it moon at open
I mean the table shows a bunch of setups and QQQ isn't even on it so I don't know what that guy's on about. Anyway that Nov 720/650 spread in the screenshot looks interesting, the protection start point is pretty reasonable for a market that's been on a tear. I'd probably ladder a few different months instead of going all in on one expiration though, spreads like these can get weird if vol stays crushed
Most investors are clueless how heavy they are in tech if they own broad market ETFs like SPY and QQQ.
Green by open, my QQQ 730p weeklies shall will it into existence
hope for a -2% QQQ open to buy the dip
put all in QQQ leaps and then talk : )
I held QQQ puts over the weekend so this goes green, you can sleep well bulls
buy QQQ on dip as always . recovers the fastest
VOO or QQQ. Stop trying to pick winners.
On the surface, VUG looks like the better hold. But its top 10 holdings are about 63.5% of the portfolio. The number for QQQ is 47%. Both numbers are obscenely high, I'd like to see them at 20%. VUG's 26% in just NVDA and AAPL is a bet that I don't want and those two occupy 10% less in QQQ. VUG has more holdings but is less diverse. On that basis, I'd choose that QQQ.
What price is QQQ key support zone?
Massive red day tomorrow. QQQ will finish down 4%.
Why do people even bother the charts tell you what’s happening better than the news does. The QQQ is going down 1% on no news? Bet your ass trump is about to say something 😭
Flat Monday incoming!!! :screech: :screech: We’re turning QQQ into a flat line and calling it a year :rich:
I mean this is boring. Praying for -50% drop from here on SPY and -70% on QQQ
for daily volatility scalping what do you all find is best, just QQQ 0dte's
for daily volatility scaping what do you all find best, just QQQ 0dte's?
QQQ calls because of China Nvidia news is a no brainer, right?
And if they dont go the entire market will keep rolling up. Just like when QQQ diped last month the S&P was still trading at all time highs
btc dumped as always. only QQQ keep gains
You buy the 0DTE calls when QQQ is about to go up. Alternatively, you buy the 0DTE puts when QQQ is just about to up down. If you bet correctly, you make 60x. If you bet incorrectly, you lose 1x. Keep trying until you make the 60x.
