QQQ SPY or NVDA play tomorrow? 🤔🤨

Mentions:#QQQ#SPY#NVDA

Wasn't in the market in 07, I started around 2011, so no war stories from me. But I got tired of the "this feels like 07" feeling and started checking things on data instead. Two things I checked that are relevant here. Nvidia dipping hard. I took the 500 most traded US stocks since 2017 and found every case where one of them dropped 15% or more in two weeks while the market itself was calm. About 2,900 cases. 20 trading days later 46% of them were higher. For a random day in the same stocks it was 44%. So a big name falling hard tells you basically nothing, not about the stock and not about the market. What to do if you're scared anyway. The simplest rule I know: hold SPY only while it closes above its 200-day average, otherwise sit in cash. From 2017 to 2026 that made about 10% a year with a worst drawdown around -20%. Just holding made 15% a year with a -34% drawdown. So it costs you about 5% a year and saves you from the worst of it. Big caveat: my data doesn't include 2008, so I can't tell you how it would have done there. Honestly I think the lists of parallels are not very useful. You can make that list in almost any year. A rule you decided on before the drop is worth more than a feeling during it.

In my experience, tail hedging requires a long-term plan to manage the cost and the potential payoff. Your option strategy only runs through the first quarter of next year. The cost is about 0.8% based on the underlying value at entry. If you are just worried about the next few months and generally do not hedge, this strategy could be useful. Otherwise, if you typically want a hedge in place ongoing, this will be expensive.  Outright, way out-of-the-money options can be a worthwhile hedge if the drop is fast and while there is still a decent amount of time left before maturity. If the market decline is slow or intermittent, it is hard to realize anything from the hedge, and the cost to enter new ones will be inflated with the market at a lower level and volatility likely higher.  For a general strategy, it can be good to come up with an annual budget. Consider splitting that between outright out of the money options for crash protection and spread strategies that would be closer to the money at entry. Ideally, it is also good to stagger the positions throughout the year, rolling and replacing a portion periodically. Lastly, with regard to taxes. If you are hedging a taxable account, SPY option gains and losses will generally always be considered short-term. Using XSP or SPX options means gains will be taxed 60% long-term and 40% short-term, regardless of the time held. Plus, they are traded nearly 24 hours a day, if that ever is a factor.  *Disclaimer: For educational purposes only. Not specific tax or investment advice.

If you mean why I traded SPX, it is because of liquidity, tax advantages, overnight options, wash sale exemptions, and I think it is easier to read than individual stocks. It also is not an ETF, it is the literal S&P 500 index. On the other hand, SPY is an ETF that tracks SPX.

Mentions:#SPY

First you need a standard way to measure insurance. I measure it by how much capital becomes dollar-for-dollar protected if my long put strike is reached. The graphic shows what rolling an always-on tailhedge can look like. I keep my annualized cost to 1-3% of the amount I'm bulletproofing against any loss whatsoever. So by my measure the amount you're bulletproofing is: $650 strike x 100 multiplier x 3 contracts / 2 for delta adjustment = $97,500 And your entry cost $1815 / $97,500 / 128DTE \* 365 days per year = 5.30% annualized cost Pretty high entry cost. Also remember that your OTM put is vega-powered on the way down to the $650 strike and after that delta start becoming the driving force. So for OTM puts you have to also simulate the payoffs for an much-elevated IV even if SPY doesn't fall much. Just to give an idea of what volatility alone can do, I had a spread going into the Covid Crash like one of the ones below when the SP500 fell to touch my long strike. I cashed in even though my long put was only ATM. Why? Because an ATM contract also happens to have the highest vega, and vega is sort of a multiplier with the VIX. And because I entered the hedge with VIX at 12 and cashed it in with VIX at 70ish, vol alone turned a $700 hedge into $66,000 payoff. Good luck! https://preview.redd.it/1junblrz031i1.png?width=1250&format=png&auto=webp&s=ac4bc51d56a230bb97ebca60618482f144b41063

It’s not necessarily random, it’s more based in probability. So there’s concepts known as “levels” and “zones” that determine where a price is likely to settle. There’s also identifying patterns in trends and how news/hedge funds position themselves that give clues to how the price will act. More here: https://www.investopedia.com/trading/support-and-resistance-basics/ And if you’re buying positions to open, you can only lose the maximum of what you put in. It’s not like shorting. Let’s say that I think that the price of SPY will reach 730 from the current level of 725. I open a position that costs a premium of $50. If it goes up, then great! I potentially doubled, tripled, or quadrupled my position (depending on how fast and consistently the price went up). If it goes down, then I’m out of that $50. But that’s it. I would say that it really does depend on the current state of the stock market, but it definitely is doable to throw the dart at the wall, so to speak. It only takes 20% of wins to grow your account

Top signals for FIVE years now. People freak out if the market drops 1% or if it drops for a few days straight. Like there is a perception that stocks are a magic money tree. Few recall that SPY was flat for almost 15 years. Shoeshine boy effect for years now. Teenagers daytrading (and gambling) Politicos trading stocks. Stocks making more than their dayjobs. Jobs are for suckers. Degrees are for suckers. Just gamble instead. Free money hack genius. Wealth without production is the ideal. Stocks only go up. despite big disparity between individual stocks down 50-98% from peak vs. indicies near all time highs. Market as retirement wealth machine, but never as potential retirement destroying machine. Markets down 50-80% in dotcom & GFC. 8% annual but ignoring 10-20 year flat periods that occur. Buy the dip vs. falling knife mindset. Can't lose mindset. Never sell stocks to pay debt. Paying off a 6% mortgage is "stupid". Market pays more. Can't lose. Risk either does not exist, or is heavily discounted Not owning stocks is reckless. Valuations. Vibe market.

You can’t stop the gaps, so most of it comes down to making sure a gap can’t hurt you badly. The main ways: * Use spreads instead of naked short options. Buying a further-out option against your short one caps the loss no matter how far it gaps. You collect less premium, but you always know your worst case. * Size for the gap, not the stop. Assume price can skip right past your stop overnight and ask whether you’d survive hitting max loss. If not, the position is too big. * Know the calendar. Check earnings dates before you open anything, and either close beforehand or don’t open across the date. Most of the scary single-stock gaps are scheduled. * Spread your risk out. A gap in one name hurts less if it’s 10% of your risk instead of 50%. * Indexes gap less than single stocks. SPX and SPY can still gap on macro news, but a 15% overnight move in one stock after earnings happens far more often. You’re right that closing every night and reopening every morning mostly just pays the spread twice a day. The other route is to not hold overnight at all. I trade same-day index options, so I’m flat by the close every day, and overnight gaps just aren’t my problem. The tradeoff is that you’re managing everything during the session instead.
