VLUE (iShares MSCI **USA Value Factor** ETF) outperform VVL xD YTD (%) Peformance: 1. VLUE → 38% 2. MTUM (iShares MSCI **USA Momentum Factor** ETF) → 25% 3. QQQ (Nasdaq100 ETF, Invesco ETF, **USA Index) →** 16% 4. VVL (**Global Value**) → 15% But in 5Y Performance (%) or more (Long-term) QQQ ETF beats everyone. Yes, in recent years the Value Factor has 'more traction', you can also see it with the ratios: * IWD/SPY Ratio → value relative performace vs index benchmark. * IWF/SPY Ratio → growth relative performance vs index benchmark. **👨🏫 BUT HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART TO UNDERSTAND 👇🏻** 1. **US Market Indices like the Nasdaq100 (QQQ ETF) their holdings are weighted by Market Cap.** 2. **The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA ETF) is price-weighted.** 3. **And the Value ETFs we are sharing are weighted by fundamentals, e.g VLUE and your VVL ETF. In fact, this ETFs are more a 'Invesment Style ETF' than a 'Factor ETF' 💡** 4. **This drives different performance (%) 💡😉** Unfortunately, there is no "Global Growth Factor" ETF. Perhaps because most of their holdings would be US technological stocks (QQQ Holdings), so have nonsense to make one. Most of global ETF compositions has more than 50% on US Markets, even factors like Value, Dividend, Momentum, etc. Growth factor have a big concentration in United States (*main region for global markets*) markets.
It’s my fault. I bought some SPY 750P 0DTE yesterday morning and then thought it was going to keep going up so I sold them at a small loss. Look at me saving capital. They were up almost 10x later in the day.
is my SPY 745c for Monday fuk or ber fuk
Offff so many peace deals SPY 9000 EOY
Strategically placed puts are also help or at least a short term defensive position (I.e. Coca Cola). The bounce of 750 SPY was highly predictable. The next move to break above or down to $710 is 50/50 I’d say atm.
+740% in last two weeks, but only +11.29% all time. You know SPY went up almost 300% in that time, right? lol. Free advice: Take your winnings, quit while you’re ahead, and stash most or all of it into an index fund. <Narrator: OP did not, in fact, quit while he was ahead>
This is my view on ES/SPY (4hr). Obviously I have no clue what's going to happen Monday (or any day ever) but I feel like this shows there's more room to go down soon than up. https://preview.redd.it/6zfgpayme2bh1.png?width=1834&format=png&auto=webp&s=8224cee2b0b4b3fd135802ac758c270354b08a2f
eh maybe, I think we pump Monday tbh but SPY will outperform again probs cuz I don’t think memory and semis get too huge of a bounce
I'm more confused why I sold my SPY puts at the top of the trend and didn't ride the gap fill to the downside 🫠
Damn I’ll be rich if it hits under 290 next week. My concern is that pretty much every small dip yesterday was bought immediately. Maybe they were just using it to prop up SPY? I figure if chips/memory run again next week the money will have to come from somewhere right
I’ve used them for several years now. Often trading SPY and IWM 0dte’s. My orders on those always go right through. On stock options they are fine on higher volume low spread options but some of the lower volume higher spread options it seems like Webull and others get a better price inside the spread. As I guess you have already noticed the charting isn’t advanced. They do have an options wizard but it’s just on the site and not the app. The options menu is very simple and straightforward. The only change I would make to it is have it automatically update pricing in real time. You have to hit refresh. I have had issues 2-3 times with the app not connecting (usually at market open).

Bull market is just broadening out. RSP the Equal weighted SPY is almost at ath's. Semis have been absolutely ripping, letting some air out of the balloon is much, much healthier than it exploding. That's what you are seeing. Watch earnings carefully however, if they disappoint I think we'll see a more substantiated downside.

My dumb ass deep value portfolio that's been underperforming since March is suddenly green as fuck whilst SPY is down so I'm gonna assume you're all fucked and stock rotation might be picking up.

Fun fact : today was the first day this week I didn’t have SPY puts for open

Michael Burry, known to close friends as Ligma, was hit by a bus this afternoon while driving to visit his secret lover and CEO of SPY, Martin Supdog. Early analysis indicates he attempted to pivot his vehicle out of the way using witchcraft, shouting yeah yeah yeah yeah, I'm not selling but was too late. Market analysts believe his fragile emotional state over the recent SPY short squeeze and his related paper losses were partially to blame. He appears to have lost it all. The sticky plunge protection team certainly did their job and made sure there was no time to short it. Later in the day an eye witness recorded Mr Burry saying Fap fap fap fap fap bagholder spotted! Guh sell oh my gourd I spilt my choccy milk. What will my Muslim wife think when I stopped doing no fap? I'm not fucking selling. Illuminati is watching. We're not sure what to make of this, but our reporting will continue. More on Boomer News at 6pm. This is not financial advice.
if thats the logic SPY would be 600 by now
I cant listen to Warsh can someone tell me whether or not to full port SPY calls or puts at open?
I mean when its obvious i guess. Like the move ur waiting for gets stalled all day and just opens where u wanted it idk. Been trading BB, FORD, and WMT lol so not anything crazy like SPY
SPY didnt pump at all from that META boost. The CEO of SPY would like a word with Zuck
Ok selling my MU bag and buying SPY puts when Warsh inevitably screws us all to make money back. Wish me luck.
Jokes aside, in simple terms options let you reserve the right to purchase or sell at a certain price (the "strike price") and are valid until their due date, after which they go poof. The closer to the due date they are, the less they're generally worth since the stock has less time to put them in the green. Generally one contract goes for 100 shares, so a $1 contract will cost $100. You don't pay the share price until you exercise, you only pay the "premium", the cost of the contract itself. So you'd ideally want puts at a strike price higher than the underlying, as those let you sell higher than market value. Calls, you'd want those to let you buy at a lower price. When your call is for a strike lower than the current underlying, or your put's strike higher than underlying, you're "in the money" since your contract already lets you buy or sell for better prices than market value. The further out of the money you are (i.e. the further your option's strike is away from being a profitable trade), the cheaper those options are. The closer to due they are, the less likely they are to break even, hence the value decay over time. Depending on how close the strike price is to the underlying, the more your contract's value shifts for each dollar the underlying changes, that's the delta. "Exercising" an option is doing the actual buying / selling at their strike price; I'd wager most here just trade the contracts without looking to exercise in most cases. When you see someone making crazy money with options, it's likely they bought far out of the money, before the underlying stock rose or fell to the point where their contract now gives better prices. E.g. SPY is at $700, you buy a call at strike $725 due a week later for some amount, say $1x100=$100. Then in the coming days, SPY goes up to $730 - suddenly that call is $5 in the money and worth a fuck ton more than you bought it for. In turn, if you're out of the money at the due date, the contract expires worthless.
MSFT being green means SPY is gonna be red. I don't write the rules, I just make them up
If the french are so concerned with the heat they should just drop a big block of ice into the ocean each year. That'll solve global warming once and for all. Anyways SPY +3% cause its America Week.
I dont care about bonds just dont sell SPY thanks
Could possibly be easier to buy ETF's of corn in 401Ks and other retirement accounts over actual BTC. I haven't checked mine though. I just allocate into VOO and SPY. \*shrug\*
SPY 700 today for just a moment plz
I would take another SPY fire sale. I fucked up the one from Friday
Sensed the weakness in SPY yesterday, went in on TSLA puts when spy was at 739 beginning of the day. SPY tanked to 733 and I had my puts open the whole time. Barely got some crumbs because TSLA didn't want to go down.
This is disappointing, SPY already tanking
Was thinking the same!! Any fall on SPY will be bought up. Free fall after the 4th though!
Looked like a SPY gap fill
Big day for SPY. Looking like we either have a -2% next or push towards ATH.
Why did we pump SPY too much yestetday, it's bloated now.
SPY stock, Nvidia at record revenue, MSFT on pullback ❌ Crazy btc conspiracist✅
I'm a little late to reply but check your positions. You don't owe $70k; you were assigned on a short put and forced to buy 100 shares of SPY at a $733 strike price. Once the broker sells those shares back to the market, your real account balance will settle. You're looking at the gross cost of the shares, not your net loss.
SPY goes down 0.1%: WSB thinks its the apocalypse SPY goes up 0.1%: WSB thinks Jesus has arrived Due to inverse wsb algos this leads to markets being theta hell as WSB is over-reactive to even the tiniest market movement.
Here’s what proposing to my wife taught me about 0DTE SPY options
Today the SPY will go down 0.36% and then the bulls will all feel silly and apologize to me
MM pls crash SPY so my puts can print and so we can oppress women. Be misogynistic today. pls
SPY 750 EOD, call at open
SPY up .15%. What is this, a gain for ANTS?!?
This is the right instinct, and you've built by hand what a decent rules engine does under the hood. Reading SPY and QQQ posture before you size anything is exactly the part discretionary traders skip and then blame their stock picking for. One thing to try. Let the regime read decide not just how much you deploy but where you lean. Holding a lot of one theme right now isn't the same as being committed to it. The durable version re-scores as the evidence moves and rotates instead of staying married to the trade, so a name that was a top weight can shrink the week the posture cools. In my own backtesting, that willingness to move, to follow the read into different corners instead of just dialing exposure up and down, is what let it finish green in a year the market fell. Your four states are a great backbone for that. The next layer is letting them steer direction, not only throttle.
SPY back to all time high this week? let's fucking go
Bull market is back huh? SPY green despite yesterday +1,7%...
If SPY & QQQ reject the 20 day and roll over, would be a perfect topping pattern
wsb is undecided on wether or not to be bullish on SPY based on wsb sentiment statistics. today is therefore volatility hell and not the theta hell of yesterday.
I guess that is what a SPY +1.65% day feels like now
wsb is right now 54% bullish on SPY, lets bring it up to 90% bullish so that everyone can inverse wsb without uncertainty
the arb question is interesting but the divergence you're seeing is already closed - it happened at 3:59:59 on friday and resolved before the open. even if you caught it live, SPX options are cash settled and SPY options arent, so the hedge isnt as clean as it looks on paper. the basis trade only works if the spread is wide enough to cover two bid-asks and the execution risk, which it almost never is on a one-day blip like this.
Have noticed this a few times, particularly IWM/RUT. There is an arb there when you see it but it's rare and quickly resolved on SPY. The IWM/RUT one is usually corrected around open. For example if you notice the IWM gap is disproportionately larger than RUT/RTY you can usually expect a violent inventory correction/gap fill at open. You can write a script to monitor the fair value of ES in SPY terms, RTY in IWM terms. Just don't expect to make a living from it. But yeah you've basically noticed an inefficiency which is one component of edge and exactly the kinds of thing you should be noticing.

I see SPY at 58M volume for Monday so I dont see where you,re going with your 1/3. Also SPX volume is super normal, stop looking at QQQ and SPY as your benchmark for volume. Look at NDX and SPX
SPY so stuck that a 0.1% move looks like a massive breakout
