QQQ

Had to stay away from AVGO after that NVDA nonsense. Happy for everyone else cuz that should at least help out QQQ traders

Country_Gravy420

As long as nothing too fucked up happens over in Iran, we cutoff be in for another green day, especially QQQ with AVGO up 15% AH

SPY/QQQ, because thats exactly what I actually did in 2022. held through the bear market

QQQ and SPY will print tomorrow 🚀

Last Thursday was literally +1.3% on QQQ

looool_k_libtard

Google outperforms mag 7 and finally has a huge 2025. Posts an absolute monster quarter and proceeds to sell off and not move at all on an almost 2% QQQ day lmao google makes no sense

To people who hold only VOO/QQQ/SPY shares: Do you feel like a crazy degenerate gambler? Just calling yourself wild and out of control? Bet you also grab a soda after your bedtime because you're such a bad boy

AdPurple4902

Alright I’m done, fuck OKTA. Next extreme 1DTE SPY or QQQ

Mean_Bumblebee1945

So since bulls are saving QQQ over and over again, this might really move to ATH again soon? I was very bearish until today. But they literally bought the whole "war" sell off back to the top of the range.

I fully agree with you. I’ve been obsessed with this. I’ve been tracking QQQ and NVDA short term expiration contract contracts up until March 20. I don’t want to assume too much about participants or dealers or market makers and if they were bought and sold, but I just assume intent based on the candle of the option contract itself. On trading view, you can just load all of the zero 0DTE as price charts. It’s delayed by 15 minutes, but you can at least see the 5min candles that the largest option blocks are traded on. This is in MST but For example today on $QQQ the 10:30am candle was initiated by selling of the $610P $611P and the $610C. I’m just going to say people, traders and the dealers / MMs are basically trading large blocks of options, strategically and then targeting the dynamic hedging function, created by the purchase or selling of these very short dated option contracts. Like you can go look at any of the time frames on the five minutes and even down to the one minute and compare it to any of these largest volume of 0DTE and see that they’re just using them on different expirations with different convexity as either a powder keg or a ammo dump. You can see it as early as the day before or two days before on some of these. Retail ain’t buying a single 50k block of OTM Mar20 NVDA puts even if it’s only 15 delta. The single blocks of the NTM contracts would be what really swings things because that forces the dealers/MMs to have to hedge faster. But also seems to be happening is these people are targeting longer dated expirations like the month end expirations . The further they go out, there would be more sellers like ETF funds and option writing strategies aka covered calls, banks. There’s an entire industry of option market deal, dealers that traders can target and buy from. Tl;dr we are seeing the most manipulated market because of the market effects of momentum, mean reversion, pinning happening, almost on a five minute level

Thanks for the downvote. My port also enjoyed all those downvotes BTD in Gold under $4600 last month. I hope buying the same $QQQ stocks works out for you haters.

They won’t give us AVGO earnings til QQQ option close at 4:15. 😤

Antique_Cabinet8416

congrats bulls, QQQ went from -3% YTD to -1.5% YTD! you done it!

Commercial_Horror204

relax, you need to ZOOOM OUT that's right, QQQ 5% down is way over due.

Awkward-Watercress33

EFTs like QQQ will add Anthropic/OpenAI post-IPO. Right now, some Investors already get pre-IPO exposure through Fundrise's Innovation Fund, plus it is diversified beyond just tech stocks.

CriticalBlackberry90

AVGO has one job and that is to bring down QQQ tmrs

Commercial_Horror204

be honest, even today SPY QQQ could pull back already.

Aggravating_Sir_4709

We really only dropped 5% on the QQQ? Is that really what a dip looks like now? Takes Iran to do it too and lasts like a few days?

We've traded b/w 600-626 on $QQQ since $NVDA hit $5T market cap and $QQQ hit new ATH's in Oct 2025. US stocks are in a kangaroo market until either the bottom falls out due to mass layoffs or somehow Trump figures out how to kick that can down a new found road.

GiantKrakenTentacle

Yeah people like to repeat the idea that leveraged ETFs go to zero but that only happens if the underlying goes way down, or at least is volatile but flat for a long time. If you do leveraged SPY or QQQ then you'll just generally outperform over long time periods. There's higher risk in that big drops are really bad and take longer to recover, but those multi-year periods of steady gains lead to huge overperformance. 

boztron

QQQ still negative for the year… I’ll ride it out for a while

Frankfurter_i81U812

Sorry man, was having a Tom Collin’s. Best I can do is QQQ 604 today and 617 tomorrow But this Blood Orange Crème Brûlée is to die for.

Continue to short QQQ at 611.8; top is IN.

OkBandicoot9286

QQQ pumped last Wednesday like this then dumped Thursday-Friday. Curious to know if it’ll follow this week. Might buy puts for tomorrow before close today

QQQ 615 will be a 10 bagger

Shorted more QQQ at 611.6, overhead resistance.

kerrykingzgo-T

Sell everything, YOLO into 0DTE QQQ calls ONLY. You then swap to puts once your call port is down 60%. You will be broke and need to whore your anoos for food and shelter but you MAY get a flair out of it.

If you want Ai stocks you need to buy Semiconductors . They perform better than QQQ, AND VGT. My estimate is Semis will be hot 30 yrs as Tech was the top stock 1990 to 2020.

Covered some QQQ shorts around 608.6 (from 611) and took profit, bools are too strong. I will step aside for a while.

JayRoo83

Color me skeptical some headline doesn't crop up in the next week to send us back down Added an ATM put on SPY/QQQ for EOM just in case

meatsmoothie82

Hegseth said today we’re sending more “assets” over- if this were a one and done they’d be announcing departure. The mission accomplished moment will be for the sake of pumping markets because that’s the only metric the administration cares about. DJI SPY QQQ new all time highs < 2 weeks, Iran conflict > 5 years

teamyg

Shorted QQQ at 611, massively; dead-cat bounce.

MutaliskGluon

But the headline will instead be "AI IS SO GOOD" and QQQ will rally 10%. Then fed will cut rates because of the shit economy, and everything will rally. Legit have no idea how 2000 and 2008 happened. It seems impossible for stocks to stay down for even a couple weeks now.

According-Page8618

first time in a long time QQQ is up +0,5% while spy is red, people buying mag7 again?

DankBusinessBuyer

Watch QQQ close that gap

greenpride32

I never understood why this comment is repeated so often and upvoted so much. My cheapest shares of SPY were $125 and my cheapest shares of QQQ were $90. They are both over $600 and that's not even factoring in the dividends. I'm just the little retail guy - so this makes me exit liquidity and a bag holder? If that's the case sign me up for more.

Salt_Experience3142

If this was my first 10k, I would buy - $4500 VOO - $3000 QQQ - $1500 GLDM - cycle this into the above once the presidency becomes boring again - $1000 FBTC - most probably will disagree but I think there’s tremendous upside to both the tech and the price Glhf

teamyg

Shorted QQQ around 605.5, trend is down.

meatsmoothie82

Time to bust out the old “Mission accomplished” banner and hang it up in the USS Gerald R Ford. Don’t get too short too soon (or at all) these conflicts (wars) are marathons, not sprints. Tje span decades and require pumping trillions into traditional war time companies a now AI and Chips get to benefit from them. It is physically impossible for QQQ to break and stay below 600 at this point for more than a day or two. Selling puts is the ultimate money printer of you have the cash to do it or the shares to lend.

CriticalBlackberry90

We pumped from -.8 to +.5% on QQQ and some bears here acting like a .2% pullback means fake pump 🤣🤣🤣 we are ending today with +1.5% on QQQ

teamyg

Got up and shorted QQQ around 604.8 and 605; 😉

Re: 2 / Deep ITM. While deep ITM will better act as a stock replacement, there are other benefits. Extrinsic is lower, resulting in lower theta decay, lower exposure to IV, and lower breakeven points. They also allow for a drop in the underlying while still allowing for reasonable short call strikes without requiring collateral. Re: 5. Just that my feeling is "time in market > timing market". Re; 6. I used to joke, "Why invest in the S&P 493?". The very nature of an index is reduced volatility compared with its components; the blending of multiple tickers has a smoothing effect. The IV of QQQ is 23, the average IV of the top ten components (accounting for \~50% of assets) of QQQ is 32. This is reflected in premiums: an ATM short call on QQQ expiring Mar 20 has a return of 2.2% while those top ten components have an average of 3.5%. Good luck and have fun!

We bottomed when AMZN tanked 10% on earnings, QQQ was -1% AH, and we reversed to finish Friday at +2%

We will see 620 this week. Whether it’s 620 SPY or 620 QQQ is yet to be determined.

QQQ is down a tiny bit and everyone and their moms think it’s a recession. Either don’t be a bitch and hold long or take your losses for being short minded

CriticalBlackberry90

I've seen enough. +3% QQQ tmrw. MSFT to 500 by June.

skymagic

95c away from biggest sm support line in QQQ for the 4th time 👀

TurtleBarge

If it were me I’d probably split it between a core ETF and a few higher conviction names. Something like VOO/QQQ for the base, then maybe a couple stocks you actually want to follow long term. Also helps to track ideas somewhere. I usually throw stocks into watchlists on moomoo first and look at the financials / analyst estimates before deciding to buy. Keeps me from dumping everything in at once.

NotMe357

AVGO probably is gonna help take out QQQ 600$ after Earning Wednesday....Guh!

CriticalBlackberry90

Yeah I think QQQ opens up +.5% if not higher

bullhunter469

Koreans just recovered +5% in 30 minutes. NASDAQ = KOSPI times 10 QQQ tomorrow = +50%

Gladiz1972

Well you definitely don't want to be paying .75 to 1 percent in management fees from most Financial Advisors or so called Wealth management people .Between SPY,VOO and QQQ most advisors could never outperform those ETFs .

Abject-Shopping-4492

As underling goes up that is delta fir the call that moves it and as it goes down it is the delta of the out and they would only be the same if delta was -.50 for your put because all delta us the probability that the call or put will finish in the money by expiration. At expiration date of course the option is worthless. This is why on 0DTE options the theta accelerates closer to close. And also the volatility of QQQ is high on any day but today was much higher than average because if the war and other headline risks especially with the $DXY pushing over 99 and so when you trade QQQ you should keep eye on dollar too.

Mug_of_coffee

> and saw small gains to the premium when the underlying price moved in my favour. However, once the price moved against me even by a little bit I was in the red as my premium lost a lot of value quickly. Eventually my SL was triggered and I exited. A few moments later I got into the 596 Put and again my premiums lost more value when the underlying price moved against me than when it moved in my favor. This time I was a bit more patient and adjusted my SL and was able to exit and leave a runner at 10:20 after QQQ had a mini dump. But again, once QQQ started to recover slightly my runner lost significant value. Eventually I sold the runner, overall in the green but it was trimmed quite a bit because of the premium's price action. > > I feel like without grasping what is going on I can't prepare my trades properly. > >  Can you please help me understand why the premiums lose much more value when price moves against you than when it moves in you favor??

Abject-Shopping-4492

You did not provide enough information to address this question. VIX is but one thing that can impact premium price changes as the underlying price of QQQ changes. You have to understand Delta which as example if Delta was -0.35 then for each one dollar change in price of QQQ would lower premium .35. You also have theta. Time decay and that works against you generally the shorter the time to expiration the more time decay impacts orice. I typically buy options three weeks out to give me time to work. When I scalp 0DTE I am more precise and get out fast on a momentum move. You still have gamma and Vega. You should look them up. Also try waiting until 09:45 or better yet until 10:00 to let the market and volatility settle down. Good luck it takes time.

alfred250

Vix was at 28 this morning with QQQ at 592, that looks pretty bottomy to me. The upside for bearish positioning seems thin compared to all puts being vaporized instantly if war is “won” with a single Truth post.

PooPooPointBoiz

How the fuck do people make massive gains on 0DTE bullshit, jesus christ. The guy that lost half his account on QQQ 0DTE's then made it back like it's just another Tuesday. Holy shit.

Shorted QQQ at 602.7, gap down tomorrow.

NotMe357

Cause we already test QQQ 600 and SPX 6800 3 times now and never close below it. So probably a cat bounce tomorrow or rocket to da moon by short squeeze.

SignificantError6221

Passive investment dominates markets nowadays, with most ETFs being market cap weighted. TSLA is in many such popular ETFs (e.g. VTI, VOO, QQQ), so money just flows into the stock regardless of what it does...

1. You may wish to read this first: [https://www.reddit.com/r/StockOptionCoffeeShop/comments/1qyb97c/leaps\_buying\_management\_comments/](https://www.reddit.com/r/StockOptionCoffeeShop/comments/1qyb97c/leaps_buying_management_comments/) 2. Given the above, if I were looking at them for that expiration (I'd probably look to Jun 16, 2028), I'd probably go with the $500 strike (delta 81.9). Cost is $160.50. I tell people that some of the most expensive options are the cheapest ones. Realize that of that $160.50, you're purchasing $100 of intrinsic value, so the extrinsic is substantially less. 3. Don't target a monthly income per contract, select a delta and take what it gives you. 4. Would this be done in an IRA? If so, be cautious in setting your short call deltas as an early assignment would be a trading violation. Bad things can happen. 5. "I would leg into this trade and only after the index has corrected at least 15% (add more at 20%, 25, 30, etc.)" - good luck with that. 6. FWIW, I prefer selling weeklies as you can be more responsive to market moves, but I offset the risk of a big gap up without a lot of time to revert to the mean by selecting a more conservative delta. If you're comfortable with 30 DTE, there's nothing wrong with that -- just a different perspective. 7. FWIW, QQQ is a 'reversion to the mean' machine. If you appreciate what that means in terms of the LEAPS and short call, if that suits your risk profile, go for it.

Apha-apha

This is the most ridiculous trade bro.. You were luck so QQQ pumped back for you.
