I see QQQ 730 move tmr
I trade QQQ options Pick strikes $5 apart as they have the most volume. Take $710,711,712,713,714,715 on a given day. $5 strikes from spot will basically always be NTM/OTM. you want the cheapest leverage possible. If you track these every day, you’ll notice that there might be a floor of premium as in a five dollar strike that is roughly 5 dollars away from spot might have a minimum amount of dollars due to reasons. Due to gamma and short expiration you might notice that a $0.25-0.35 0DTE QQQ option might have the most convexity of the other strike. As in these have the opportunity to do 100-500% much faster than expected. Even if you wanted to do an in the money option that’s like let’s say $1.00 so even at a minimum you could just try to buy that and have a stop loss of 10% and have roughly 10 opportunities to lose your money. I see people all the time posting how they lose on these super expensive options. How about buy a 20 Delta call for like $40?
Ah shit here we go again. QQQ futes turned red. 💯🫡🤨
Did you learn anything from it? It s good to write things down and then look back to see what you did wrong. You still have $37k left. Even Charlie munger lost about 50% on his investments at the begining of his career. It might be better to just put it in VOO or QQQ at this point. Take a short break and only use a small portion of your money for trading. Or just do paper money for a bit. If you have the urge to trade everyday just go small. 1-2 shares or $200 max allowed.
If we can get a SPY/QQQ +4% day like our KOSPI brothers, that would be stellar.
That’s just not correct at all, you could’ve purchased a few QQQ/SPY slightly OTM and profited significantly more than these penny contracts that no one touches.. wonder why that is
Selling Cash-Secured Puts against SPY or QQQ isn't all that risky. Worst case scenario you end up with 100 shares of an index that might fall 20% during your "black swan" but then will recover 30% over the following 2 years or less.
To be honest I think you are doing completely fine. You just need to find the investment style that works for you. For most people it's buying index ETFs and just hold and DCA. For a small minority it's swing trading. For even a smaller group, 0dte actually works. You just paid some tuition to find out SPY and QQQ are the best investments for most of us. Your remaining 20k can easily become 100K in 10-20 years.
Literally watch oil. As soon as it moves either direction so does QQQ

Get your trade idea only off the daily chart, be very choosy. SPY/QQQ sometimes don’t have trades opportunities so also watch NVDA AVGO PLTR IWM AAPL AMZN. Use indicator Saty Volume Srack.🇺🇸
QQQ calls still pretty cheap, its like the market is pricing in not hitting 740 by end of year

In Feb 26 Gold sold off 1st, then in March 26 international stocks sold off next, then US stocks. In October Gold and international stocks have already sold off. I wonder what could be next? I'm a gambler so I've been BTD on $VXUS. I'm already at my Gold position goal, but gold would be a better buy than $QQQ and $SPY rn IMHO.
short crypto , buy SNDK and MU QQQ on dips
Buying out of the money LEAP calls is a good way to amplify your upside at the cost of racheting up the risk. Even then your downside is limited to what you paid for the calls. Buying OOTM LEAPs behaves much more like an equity position. Buying short PUTs is a good way to short stocks or hedge markets while also limiting your downside. If you have a tech heavy portfolio, a few short QQQ puts gives you some protection if tech crashes for instance. Those complicated strategies have been great ways to lose money in my book.
I would like to thank MMs for saving my last QQQ 713P scalp. I never believed all those bad things those dirty wsbers said about you
How would i have been fine? The market came back before it expired. The reason I buy the call option way out is there is time for it to recover…..it was a downturn and I felt I had to reduce risk and at least get something out of the contract. Further I got ballsy and bought some calls on other stocks I shouldn’t have. So I was cleaning up. In the end I stick to SPY and QQQ. Buy at a reasonable breakeven point not necessarily strike price. Pretty simple bet that QQQ will go up 10% in 2.5 years. Well with that risk I own every dollar it goes over 780 before Jan of 2029. Does that all make sense.
You mean the same clueless private market whales that invested early and are now dropping their bags on QQQ?
VIX is trying to fall to non elevated level which should push SPY and QQQ higher
I buy Leaps on QQQ and SPY. They act more like an equity. But they have doubled almost every year. I just bought 500 strike of QQQ Jan 2029, after selling my Dec 2027 400 strike for 123%.
Today is just flipping between QQQ 713C/P while it dances around the strike
Why are yall buying more put than calls on QQQ?

To anyone wanting AI exposure without full risk ON, look into QQQ. Tech etf and literally every company is doing something “ai” related, but for example Google and Microsoft have been solid companies for 20 years.
QQQ has risen like Jesus on Easter Sunday my gawd
QQQ In a crazy battle
You have a much better chance dumping in QQQ. Please stop, just focus on work and let your shit build fairly stress free. You can completely recover from this within 5-10 years by doing almost… NOTHING!! Just because you think you’re smarter doesn’t mean you can beat the odds of a market designed to beat you. Maybe load up some TQQQ if you like risk but just hold and forget you have stocks. No need to check every day. Just distance yourself and you’ll feel much better
Brutal year tbh. Had to dump it all in june and rotate into SaaS for the big bucks. Crypto and gold all ass. Another play was energy but had to predict the iran war for the easy gains, or play the TA perfectly (which surprisingly was pretty accurate for oil at least initially). I don't see a good deal right now except TLT assuming yields have indeed topped. Ai seems shakey. I think finding a good person to follow or discord can unironically work, but finding a good one is the hard part. I still have to find one. Outperforming VOO and chill is harder than ever. Even QQQ was ass outside of the april giga rally for the past entire year. Many of the mag 7 aren't even outperforming QQQ, and the one that is is apple which has the weakest growth of them all.
QQQ needs to hold $715 areas before fed meeting Let’s do it
Strong bounce off 700 is good news for QQQ, the shelf was 680 and we didn't even come near it
