We seem to be up on both SPY & QQQ, not sure why. Hyperliquid
Options are the financial temptations of the flesh And QQQ 0dtes got big ol’ titties
5x long QQQ 5x long everything. Dips will be bought and eaten up PDQ.
QQQ has outperformed and in my opinion will outperform. More than half the SP are zombie companies.
You can’t go wrong with either but you are young so just do QQQM (it’s the same as QQQ but just has a lower expense and less volume for options (don’t worry about that for now).
As a QQQ investor i really hate this. I’m now a bagholder. Spacex will drop 80% in the coming year and when the available shares will be released more into the market it will make spacex a bigger % of the nasdaq 100 while it catches the falling knife. This i just robbery to all nasdaq 100 holders
Holding both SPY and QQQ puts
Standard advice for young people who don't want to spend hours researching stocks is to just buy a broad market index fund. VOO is Vanguard's version of the S&P 500 which is the 500 biggest US public companies. SPY is the same thing with a different name. QQQ is the 100 biggest companies on the Nasdaq which is more tech focused. They have significant overlap (I think almost every stock in QQQ is also in VOO). If you think tech will outperform the broader market, you should buy QQQ. If you think it will underperform, pick VOO. Ultimately, your decision won't matter too much, one way or another. When you have a small portfolio, contributions and savings matter the most. Once your portfolio is larger than 100k, then investing decisions start to matter more. (Also, At your age, your primary focus should be investing in yourself so that you can earn more money in the future (college, apprenticeships, etc.))
I used to do that all the time in my 20’s. With almost the same parameters as you. Now in my 40’s I never do that. QQQ has kicked everyone ass the last 20 years. It includes overpriced companies, unprofitable companies, ADRs, companies with massive debt, etc. The problem is that you miss out on the company like Micron, maybe they have negative growth for a year for whatever reason and we don’t own it before it pops 1000%.
Right there with you on the QQQ puts. Holding $724 7/17s. Dispersion is insanely high with so many catalysts next week.
Lost $1700 on SPY and QQQ puts value but still holding SPY $754 puts and QQQ $723 puts expiring on 7/14
QQQ vs VOO final knockout battle!
Yeah for sure, I don't know her so I'm giving the blanket advice I'd give any 15 year old You're right tho - she'd learn about risk and reward faster with QQQ or it's spinoffs If she wants to do something more active/engaged, I'd definitely go your route She can learn about expense ratios with QQQM or income strategies with QQQI
She should stick to non-sector specific index funds until she knows enough to make that call herself for her own risk profile. VOO WAS my tech-exposure recommendation as opposed to the true conservative answer which would be VTI until she knows enough to specialize In short, I agree with you, but due to her young age I feel it's better to keep it maximally diversified while she uses the time to learn about her specific investment style Maybe she's a value investor, maybe a growth investor, maybe she ends up selling theta to option freaks But for now she's a 15 year old with homework and friend group drama and everything that comes with being a teen and QQQ can swing a lot for a new investor and comes with its own drama of "is it a bubble?"
At age 15, id suggest QQQ. Its riskier but likely more rewarding over a long time. VOO should compound at ~8%, QQQ might be ~10-12%, but will be affected more by any downturns. You've got the advantage of age on your side, however - you can ride out the next 30, 35 years. If OP were 20 years older id definitely suggest VOO. Or... maybe go 75/25 QQQ/VOO, in ten years, go 50/50, and then at 35 go 25/75 QQQ/VOO ?
Are meta and NVDA the only reason SPY and QQQ were green today because everything else is blood red
# Hopefully the Ukrainians will take care of the Russian refineries and oil well. We definitely need oil high. Lets take WTI to $500. That will surely take down SPY to $250 and QQQ to $150.
QQQ hit a high in 2000 not to be seen again until 2016. I hope you’re patient lol
I can confirm. Mine was three weeks ago - SPY 0de put made me $2,400 and QQQ calls made me $1,800. It’s been all downhill from there.
https://preview.redd.it/4li5yjos9hch1.jpeg?width=1819&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2fd342281333960b47f0adecc5f40237f82043a7 I was a bit upset over being forced to passively buy SpaceX due to the fact that we own the Invesco QQQ index fund, but I figured the amount involved wasn't worth worrying about. A couple days later, I checked our primary account and UBS had moved 1% of the account into Space X. I called our financial advisor and he told me that UBS was recommending a 1% position for most of their clients due to the "long-term value proposition". I made it clear that I didn't want to ride SPCX all the way down to below $1T once all the lockouts end, and as of this morning we're out (after losing a fair amount, of course). Long story short, expect a big rally. SpaceX will be at $500 in six months.
Bol beat up on their baby mammas when QQQ slips 2%
QQQ kinda weak the past month
# 1. Fuck Hormuz, and the gulf oil. # 2. Fuck Russian refineries. # 3. WTI to $500, SPY to 250, QQQ to 200, US10Y to 20%
Saturday - We get the announcement that strait is open to all. Sunday - Peace deal signed on docusign via Zoom call Monday - SPY opens at 765 and QQQ at 740 Then bol wakes up from their dream and finds out that its just Friday night LMAO
"The main piece of the bullish position, executed about 90 minutes after the opening bell, was a $30 million purchase of 28,000 736-strike calls expiring July 31. At the same time, the person sold $6 million worth of the 730/740-strike call spread expiring the same date, lowering the cost of the trade, but pushing the breakeven up to about $750 – less than $2 above the QQQ high from early June."

Swing/day trading seems like the only approach in this market at the moment. Every bit of good news is a huge pump and then QQQ is down 2% next day causing individual stocks to fall 5-10% lmao
If QQQ can hit 800 in a few months I’ll be a thousandair
Hedged my SK Hynix shares with a QQQ poot
So, What drove SPY and QQQ up?
The fact QQQ has dumped 3.5%+ two times in the last month on basically no catalyst is telling me there not a lot of confidence.
We just brough back sanctions on Iran which effectively nullifies the MoU. All things are set up for a major escalation over the weekend. If it happens, USO is opening at 120 on monday. SPY and QQQ should be down 2% by open.

# Possible stocks (low confidence) Based only on the price action patterns—not on readable text—the trader could be watching the kinds of stocks active day traders commonly trade: * NVIDIA (NVDA) * Tesla (TSLA) * Palantir (PLTR) * AMD * Meta (META) * Amazon (AMZN) * Microsoft (MSFT) * SPY * QQQ The center chart, in particular, resembles a large-cap stock making a morning recovery rather than a thinly traded small-cap.

Sell puts on Spy or QQQ to collect premium. Wheel it if you get assigned.
Just buy QQQ and don’t worry about it.
Once QQQ goes green Bers are done
I call them anchor candles, but it’s usually a red hammer or doji in the middle of an up trend. On QQQ we dumped down to exact cent of the red wicks from yesterdays pump . Like the market makers cleared out all of the resting orders below. Sellers and buyers.
META and NVDA the only think holding QQQ from -2%
Mayne Go wanted a better entry for his QQQ calls
"Buy $QQQ puts" "Bought SQQQ puts thx"

looking for some kind of movement right now. QQQ RSI is sitting at a boring 50%.
If QQQ closes at 725 then I'm celebrating with Korean BBQ If QQQ does not close at 725 then I will personally fly economy class with 4 different layovers to the DMZ and take back all of the U.S.'s mines
Korea is going to save QQQ today
I need QQQ to move +1.4% to break even 😈
Yo I somehow bought QQQ calls on the major dip and am already up 50% lmao
Good concentration point. One terminology correction: delta is a local sensitivity, not the probability that a strike gets hit. I also think the example mixes current sensitivity with assignment exposure. If the $100k is already assigned stock, beta-weighting the full notional is a reasonable first-order estimate. If it represents eight 30-delta short puts, current QQQ-equivalent exposure is closer to the sum of beta × position delta × underlying notional. Full beta-weighted notional is the exposure those puts approach as they go deep ITM or are assigned. Covered calls similarly need the stock delta plus the short-call delta. I’d track both: beta-weighted delta dollars now and beta-weighted assignment notional. Then stress the book, because gamma, IV/skew, beta, and correlation all change during a selloff. The wheel risk is that the first number converges toward the second just as diversification disappears. That distinction also matters when sizing the QQQ hedge.
Well, I knew this would happen with QQQ and others being choppy. Yesterday I bought a call and put for about $50 each both OTM to see if either would be in profit. Turns out it’s neither
whats wrong with the QQQ?
