Sold some of my tech and small QQQ lot and moving it to VDE. I would have sold more but i dont want to cross short term gains tax.
Watch this QQQ fade towards 602$
If they want to screw people on SPY/QQQ with these fake pumps fine but can we speed it up? Boring af watching the fakeouts
Covered more QQQ at 601.5 (from 605.5) and took profit, 😆
Banbet! QQQ 605 or above EOD

Puts on QQQ and calls on Oil
Im a bit over a month in on options trading. Surprisingly i find QQQ 0DTEs the beet way to make money as well. In and out for quick cash. Only problem for me personally is i get greedy and try to make multiple QQQ call/put a day after i close the previous one.
QQQ basically at September prices, what we even doing this for. 🫠
Shorted more QQQ at 603.8, market feels ruggy.
Its gonna be a bloody day, watch out below for QQQ 590.
QQQ monthly opex max pain is pinned at 600. Take it easy bools, its not going anywhere but 600.
QQQ red but MSFT green means this is a fake and gay dump QQQ 610 at open, 650 tomorrow
It actually works well even if a stock is rising or falling, as long as it isn't rising or falling too quickly. For example, I've had a short position on QQQ since October, I've been selling 2:1 puts against it, and while the shares are now ~2% under water, I've collected premiums on those puts for nearly 5 months straight, which have significantly outpaced the losses on the short position. Now, if the underlying appreciates TOO fast, your short puts won't keep up, but that's true with any position, they can't all win
Just stumbled across this prediction from a daily thread: >hogujak •4y ago >I love costco but their pe ratio is at 44... Absolutely ridiculous. I wouldn't be surprised if their share drops by 50%. Since 8/17/2022, when that comment was made, Costco has beaten SPY, matched QQQ, and had a max drawdown of \~21%. Investing is hard.
SHORT EVERYTHING especially QQQ
QQQ is converging to 600, the max pain; as planned by options market-makers.
Shorted more QQQ at 603.9, more downside ahead.
Do not buy BTC, it will head to zero, they are out of buyers. Most indexes will perform equal long term so if u buy one that is down u will win. I own 6 : BRKB(works like a fund they own 130 companies) , FZIPX-0 FEE Small cap, MDY -mid cap, Fnilx -0 fee Large cap. QQQ Or VGT -tech or nasdaq, Semiconductors -an Ai play- SMH. I do not rebalance to avoid taxes, so I could really own 1 of these only ,If I did rebalance, I would buy FZROX a zero fee total market fund.
Honestly never thought anything in that direction no. Would you recommend any less US heavy tech instead of QQQ?
For 20+ years and low expenses, that’s a strong aggressive setup. VEQT covers global, QQQ tilts heavy US tech, BTC adds volatility/upside. Just be aware of the concentration overlap. Main thing is being able to stomach a long drawdown and keep buying. Random thought — what’s your view on India as part of long-term growth? It’s one of the faster-growing markets structurally, and I’ve been looking at it more lately. Curious if you’ve considered any exposure there.
Currently I’m in VEQT QQQ and BTC all in my TFSA. Horizon is long long term like 20+ years. I’m putting in a solid amount at the moment, since I have unused TFSA room and my expnses are low. Canada btw
Honestly, after S&P + QQQ + BTC, most people aren’t missing some secret asset… they’re usually missing balance. A few often-overlooked pieces: • International exposure • Small-cap/value tilt • REITs • Some boring dividend growers • Even bonds (depending on goals) The real question is what role each holding plays. I used to be super growth-heavy too before rethinking structure. Are you aiming more for long-term growth or income?
You know what’s the worst? Giving advice to friends that actually works way better than you intend for it to. Years ago a friend asked me what to buy and what has potential. I said NVDA and a few others but then told them they should just buy QQQ to diversify. Well, they really like the NVDA idea and have been buying some every month ever since. Their total cost basis last time I checked was like 35k and now it’s worth a cool half milly. Who the fuck full ports 1 stock for years and doesn’t diversify 😭
QQQ tmrw will be blood boys.

I heard that if you buy and sell before they sell but then you also pre buy when it dips and then it rips you have basically outperformed the market, is that true? anyway QQQ (yes) 700 eow!
Loaded on QQQ $600 puts expiring in May. If it works out, great. If not, my portfolio will bounce hard.
So many people bragging about holding SPY/QQQ puts overnight, how we feeling?
This play is so beyond stupid, just buy QQQ/SPY calls and hope the direction is right before going and buying a whole bunch of short dated tech calls in uncertain macro environment
Cause individual stocks can have wacky movement but I had good feeling that overall market would pump. I mostly only trade QQQ since as long as I call correct direction I make money. Also because you can have random announcements that can pump or dump stocks bigly.
I can see that on the 4H / daily — the structure fits the bull flag look. My hesitation is we haven’t broken the upper boundary yet. Bull flags only matter if they break with expansion. Otherwise they turn into distribution ranges pretty quickly. 692 SPY / 611 QQQ are the decision points for me.
QQQ +1% only for past 5 months.

$IGV rebound has been pretty weak. I sold out only making pennies. I don't see the $QQQ rebounding w/o a rebound in the software stocks that make up like 18% of the Nasdaq.

QQQ could tap the 200 DMA and get it over with. but no, it has to do relief rallies and slut around.
Well big techs major retreat was QQQ going from 636 > 603. 33 points is a whole 5% drop whoopee.
I am a professional monkey manager and after carefully reviewing these levels, I can confirm my top-performing macaques have reached the same conclusion by flinging darts at a laminated SPY chart. Key findings from the enclosure: • 681 held because the silverback refuses to let it go. He sat on it all Monday. Very committed. • 690–692 fading is classic “banana just out of reach” behavior. Lots of jumping, no follow-through. • QQQ 600 held because the intern chimp duct-taped it to the cage floor. Extremely bullish tape action. • 610–611 remains capped due to a plexiglass ceiling installed after the 2021 incident. Compliance issue. IWM looking stronger is no surprise — smaller caps are easier for the monkeys to carry around, psychologically empowering. 265 sticking depends entirely on whether Larry stops chewing the support line. As for volatility expansion: none detected. Monkeys are calm. Grooming activity elevated. No poo-throwing acceleration zones triggered. This is not fear — this is boredom. Base building vs pause before move down? My official professional monkey opinion: We are consolidating while the zookeeper decides whether to bring snacks or bad news. Positioning > commitment. Bananas > narratives. Will reassess after the afternoon feeding and/or CPI.
Bull are fucked if QQQ close below 600$!
$15 liquid left so I put it in a 0dte QQQ 601p COME ON BABY DADDY WANTS TO BUY A NICE BUT NOT *TOO* EXPENSIVE DINNER TONIGHT
It looks like Market-Makers changed their mind; let's short QQQ around 604.8, target 600.
Never been so grateful to lose $126. Was down $2400 at one point today. Heart attack ride on QQQ puts.
Another day I was looking at shorting when QQQ was up 1.3% and I am too much of a *puss*
Gold and energy the only plays i like right now. Well and QQQ puts on pops.
Should I buy QQQ puts today lol
Told you this morning QQQ was going to end the day red
LMAO my YOLO $600P QQQ expiring friday are up 50% already.
If you are a ber, youd be far better playing QQQ based on FOMC minutes than S&P imo
QQQ double topped. Minutes was nothing. Now we just bleed the rest of the day
Come on you didn't think they would give you that QQQ pump for free now did you?? If you didn't get out at 1.5% you need to go have a word with yourself. You had the chance.
Right SLV did it for me now let's see QQQ DRILLLLLL LIKE A CONVICTED DRILL ARTIST
tbh at age 20 that is way too defensive. i'm retired and i could see that as my portfolio, and i'm pretty defensive now, but not even as defensive at that. if you are putting in new money, corrections are going to be your friend if you get more growth oriented. if i was 20, i'd set aside a cushion for expenses and keep that in VBIL or any of the other short-term treasury ETFs, but the rest of the money, I would buy equal shares of VOO or SPY, and QQQ. Or add in an Ex-US ETF if you want. If money comes out of AI and chips, it's going to go somewhere else and if you have a broad index fund, that somewhere else is going to be in the index.
Wife has a bad back so she was getting this new "nuru" massage or something with her bf. He sold me his QQQ calls and then left to meet her. Hope she comes back good as new
Everything in QQQ to 0 except GOOG to 350 would be the ideal scenario for my port
This is a pretty weak ass rally. I figured the $QQQ would have retested 613 by now. No one wants to BTD on these software stocks with any conviction.
I am 17, living in the US. I have around 30k and am deciding how to allocate it among ETFs and individual stocks. I should make around 17k this year, so I am going to max out my Roth IRA.

Only need about 4 more days like this for new QQQ ATH
QQQ is how far below its ATH? And when was that?
QQQ has been consolidating for 4 months, it’s been very healthy breadth action. Nothing to be bearish about IMO. I’d expect the Mag7 to keep up the strong earnings.
Today will end with a lower high on SPY and QQQ
I’m so happy QQQ is back at October levels🤡
SPY and QQQ will end the year up 10-15%
Then the TLT Call position that I aim to get to ~3% of my portfolio will be a bad bet. But the IV is very low, something like 10th percentile. Bonds are beat up, and the 20Y yield is still 4.5% ish when I am expecting 100-150 bps of cuts this year due to slowing economy and super low inflation, if not deflation. If theres a US default event then id rather lose 100% on a TLT call position thats ~3% of my portfolio than lose >50% on SPY and QQQ lol
Another leg up pls? Could use 620 on QQQ. Dont let it fade bullla
Even QQQ is like 4% off ATH
Can’t believe I sold my QQQ calls yesterday. I’m a bear
Felt stupid to short QQQ today, after my trader friend reminds me today's VIX expiration day. Dang it.
It’s actually so fucking disgusting that I can never catch one of the big down days on QQQ with puts. But on days like today I buy puts and I get fucked.
Bought more TQQQ at 49.75; target QQQ 614. Got the direction wrong, now the target from my trader friend.
The short-squeej of QQQ might reach 610-612 area, to meet heavy overhead resistance.
QQQ is like 4% off the highs. What are we even talking about
All my QQQ shorts were stopped out at 608; market has turned bullish. Next stop 610.
We retest 613 on $QQQ. There are too many tech dip buyers. I will use this rally to shave some profits in gold around $5088, thou
Sold my calls yesterday morning. When the price recovered I bought puts. I closed them this morning. I’m taking a break for a while !banbet QQQ 1,000 2d
Shorted more QQQ at 607.1, what a squeej.
Jesus. I need QQQ down to 603 so I can get the fuck out of this
kept shorting QQQ at 606.2, fake pump.
continue to short QQQ at 605.6, nice entry.
