Cannot beat the market but leverages are showing massive gains over market as far we can look back. Some can argue on imaginary backward projections, but the rules have changed to prevent sharp drops.

I buy at the money calls doesn’t take a huge movement to make big profits. SLV and TQQQ are what I’ve been trading. SLV has been less consistent, but it has options expiring Monday Wednesday and Friday, TQQQ has massive swings because leveraged. Theta can be high, but also premium is low because it’s the day of expiration.
QQQ 735s and TQQQ 90s. I’m fucked I know
Listen people, every fucking dip turned around by end of day or next day. If you have half a fucking brain, hold your QQQ/TQQQ/SPY calls, buy more, and fucking YOLO. This is the future hindsight moment where you think “wow, I could’ve 100x if I’d just not been a pussy”
These are money flows, not price. MU and even MUU are absolute blackholes for capital today, with MUU eclipsing SOXX and TQQQ, and SOXL eclipsing the index ETFs. Everyone is buying one stock at the same time. Not to mention the calls community and their "market maker" btchz. The blow up of this trade will be... just beautiful. https://preview.redd.it/midrg3cyno3h1.jpeg?width=1871&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=517a1ca0d8a7d2bccf2f6d68e413fcc6dc826f83

Why buy QQQ when you can buy TQQQ and SOXL?
"Thinking of selling SPY to reallocate to \*TQQQ"
Long TQQQ here with NO fear 😎💪😎
Ditch the individual stocks and get TQQQ or QLD. Today’s winners maybe tomorrow’s losers, so just buy a leveraged etf.
I’m all in on SOXL and TQQQ
Don't really need much to get rich SOXL, TQQQ, DRAM, NASA
Should’ve went in on MU instead of TQQQ sadge
Hey guys, I'm looking for long term holds but with a bit more risk tolerance and was wondering if there are leveraged ETFS on world diversification stocks like VT / XEQT. Similar to TQQQ / SPMO, are there similar ETFS that leverage VT or XEQT?
I lost the same aamout and during the same crash. I lost over 150k when interest rate hikes caused the market rout. Literally both in qqq calls and TQQQ shares. Now look at it. For 5 years it ground me down and life will never be the same because of it. I was fortunate to be able to incrementally trade it back to even but that process was slow and emotionally draining as the markets all recovered quickly and I was catching Pennie’s while it all rallied. You are not alone. No special words other than there are others out there dealing with the same pain
Just went all in on TQQQ to recoup some put losses.
As I opened them when the price were so low. My monthly short calls accumulated premium will be able to absorb furious drawdown before positions become non profit. I have many 3x LETF I will reduce or close them when 20 SMA or bollinger band middle line start to descend in weekly chart. FAS and TQQQ 20 SMA descending early this year but I was still positive so I did not close them and avoid paying tax later I actually bought more in late March and early April. Weekly chart is easy to monitor.
0 chance with black swan, only if claud tells you to buy TQQQ puts as a hedge ☠️🤣
You’d make a lot more being in TQQQ. $500 a day is rookie numbers
I have leaps calls on 3x LETF SOXL, TQQQ and FAS exp Jan 27 and Jan 28, all opened during deep drawdown. On top I also sold puts the same strike price same duration of calls and sell monthly way OTM monthly calls. This structure, I am positive on time decay. Very good result so far but monthly calls some time have to roll to much longer duration to be cash flow positive. Short calls premium are very high, it helps to reduce the cost.
Leverage on leverage. Calls on SOXL and TQQQ
WOW not even +/- 0.01! Theta gang eating real good today! Anyway, full port SOXL or TQQQ calls on margin tomorrow. Leverage on leverage. Valhalla or Wendy's dumpsters, there is no between
SOXL and TQQQ how did you guys know?
For $500 and 40 years, there's no reason to be conservative. It's either TQQQ or Bitcoin.
TQQQ is a bit of an outlier in terms of being able to provide consistent leverage without much decay. Not perfect, but close. And honestly not sure how they do it. Most levered products you’re going to eat the underlying decay *on top* of the theta decay in the options and the liquidity is worse (so the slippage is worse getting in and out). Just pull up a long term chart of just about any levered product and overlay it on the underlying and it’s clear. Outside of shorter dated (even 3-6 months out) you need like a 3-4+ standard deviation move in the underlying or you’d make more with the options on the non-levered instrument. LEAPS on levered products make no sense as you’re just magnifying the decay.
I don’t know but I’m hoping he sets a record for the Biggest Dip Ever “like nothing you’ve ever seen before” so I can full port TQQQ and chill.
TQQQ 1/21/28 $75C on 3/30/26 was $505. Now, it is $2,668. 5x. Buying $505 worth of TQQQ shares on 3/30/26, would be worth $1,030 right now. 2x. What are you talking about.
Leveraged ETFs as well as options on Leveraged ETFs are path of returns bet. If you have some signal that tells you there’s going to be some consecutive days in a row in the same direction, or the opposite (very choppy up down up down and you want to fade the LETF) you will likely do better choosing LETF products over the underlying. Inversely, if you have some signal on the underlying ( “I’m unsure on the path but I think QQQ is headed up within the next 12 months more than priced in the options market” for example ) you’ll likely do better on QQQ than TQQQ. In my opinion this is a better way to think about it than purely the volatility, sorry if it doesnt answer your question
I disagree. Its still more leverage. Ie, If you look at 80 delta options for jan 2027. Right now thats 610 on QQQ, 56.5 on TQQQ. One can buy 5 calls of TQQQ for every 1 of QQQ. Now here's the leverage: lets say QQQ finishes at 800. Thats $190(call price ~$139)=~$51 gain. 800 is 12% up from today. Lets say TQQQ goes up 30% instead of 36%. That puts it at 100. Thats $44.5(~28.5 price)=$16 gain but you have 5 calls so $80 total. So same dollar amount invested gets you a higher return.
I would dump in VOO(long) and TQQQ(short term)
If your looking for leverage on an index don’t but 1 - TQQQ option by 3 options of the under index or (index equivalent) etf. If you can’t afford 3 - QQQ options try 3 - XLG options for example. They have long term positive drift and not the negative baggage of Leveraged ETF’s.
The only time I think this would be an advisable strategy is right before a parabolic run like we've just seen on TQQQ. You really need the market going up day after day by leaps and bounds to outrun volatility decay. Any chop is going to really hurt, and a big down day will crush you. If there's a massive sell off, and then a positive catalyst marking a vol crush bottom, or a Zweig Breadth Thrust event or something, you might try this. Otherwise, probably just a cool way to set money on fire.
Am I about to like 1000x my $80 TQQQ Calls?
Wouldn't the volatility decay of TQQQ and SOXL absolute destroy you though?
Full port into TQQQ calls at open. This is financial advice.
Then put all your money in TQQQ.
I buy TQQQ during market corrections. Recently grabbed a bunch at 38$. First time I’ve got the “bottom” correctly but it’s been a nice run the last month or so. It doubled and I pulled half and now I have a position on house money and cash on the side for another pullback.
Using my TQQQ shares as collateral to buy even more TQQQ.
need a 2x or 3x Memory and Rockets/Space ETF - not just 1 stock, kind of like TQQQ
you have to be careful with TQQQ: if you buy and market bottoms out and then it starts going up, you make a lot of money. on the other hand, if you buy and market keeps going down, likewise you can lose a lot.
When fear and greed index goes to single digits buy TQQQ.
if the market crashed 40%+?? Home equity loan on house.... Doomsday account activated (YES , I have one for that situation) TQQQ SOXL JPM GOOG class C IBKR CBOE And you can swing trade aggressively post crash for about 6 months
Just buy some TQQQ with the $42.38
If the market dips next week, all cash into TQQQ and GOOGL. If the market rips, I’m rich because I have tons of calls.
Yes, it can't go tits up. Big dick bros buy TQQQ too
we have minimum SOXL and TQQQ, this kind of talk does not belong here.
Go full retard and buy options on $TQQQ with margin.
If you ever lose money on an investment, just hold TQQQ until you get the amount you lost back.
Yeah yeah, and my bitcoin and TQQQ are up even more. Nasdaq index is horrible!
Ahh of course. I did the same with TQQQ but not for five contracts at \~$900 like your giant balls. Nicely done
Last post by /u/ssmoygugs6 was 17 days ago. RIP king > If you regards are risking $80,000 to $100,000 on shit like this or 0DTE’s, might as well hold it until that shit expires. If you’re going to pussy out buy TQQQ shares instead.
You're welcome, I had sold my TQQQ cals prior to this pump and may have covered commissions
i bet on it and own a lot of TQQQ any rational human wouldn't have bought puts they would have lost all of their money
High-yield savings accounts for now. Wait for the market to crash. Buy triple leverage TQQQ or some other ETF if you wanna play it safe. Then wait for the government bail out. That’s been my investment philosophy for years now.
I’m loading up on TQQQ calls at open
You would've needed to put about $450 in TQQQ back in 2010 to be able to buy that car new today
I’m scared to buy TQQQ calls cause of NVDA earnings
If Warsh keeps printing you should borrow and be in stocks, maybe not TQQQ but yes in regular stocks.
Going 100% cash today. Already made my annual target %+ for the year by buying the dip on TQQQ at like $35. Scaled out chunks over the past few weeks. Thanks for the exit liquidity, regards (and retirees with their yuge tax returns). I'll make sure not to spend it wisely at all
Dude yes. Been doing 0dte SPX for years. Favorite trade. *i did TQQQ this week though.
So should I borrow as much as I can against my paid off house and buy TQQQ?
**Dear SPY, I wrote you but you still ain't climbin'** I checked the pre-market, the futures, and the after-hours timin' I sent two limit orders back in autumn, you must not have filled 'em There probably was a problem with the bid-ask or somethin' Sometimes the spreads get wide when the volume's thin But anyways, screw it, what's been up, man? How's your P/E? My portfolio's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a bag-holder If it's a ten-bagger I'ma name it TQQQ I'ma name it after you I read about the Fed announcement too, I'm sorry I had a friend short himself over some puts that didn't print for him I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest bull I even got the weekly calls, the ones that expire Friday I got a room full of your candlestick charts and I love 'em I like when you gap up too, that was fun Anyways, I hope you hit 600, hit me back Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest degen This is Stan
TQQQ didn’t exist pre-2000. Simulations are all well and good, but the market conditions, liquidity, information flow, technology today aren’t the same as pre-2000 and people need to stop bringing up one of the worst crashes in all of history. Levered ETFs can have a place in a risk adjusted portfolio that is not a “Yolo”. That being said, options on a levered security is just asking for disaster. Just do one or the other.
TQQQ hasn't even fully recovered to pre-2000 crash.
QLD TQQQ may bankrupt you, QLD is the answer
QQQ 0DTE = Tesla TQQQ 0DTE = Lambo
what if you had invested $10K into TQQQ on February 5th, 2016? How much would you have then?
Dumb thing to compare. What about VGT then? TQQQ? Or just stock picking lol
Sold MSFT for 3% profit and moved funds to TQQQ. Either I make money faster now or lose money faster. Yolo.
I'm never buying calls at market open or on a Monday ever again. I'm stuck holding the bag on TQQQ now
Honest question, what is stopping me from holding back a thousand in cash and when the eventual dip/ crash happens, pour it into TQQQ due to how decay works?
TMF: 3x Long Bond ETF currently at record lows ("Blood in the streets"). Bond yields currently look primed to break higher on high inflation worries. Look for this to materialize, driving a slump in the overall US market. Similar to 2019-2020 response to tariff backlash and the COVID Crash, expect the FED to begin buying up long bonds in response, generating a potential 13x return. Then swiftly rotate into your favorite beaten down tech stocks at that time (eg. TQQQ, SOXL) to ride that wave back up.
when your gf ask you if you have a lambo, do you wanna say no?? GO BUY THAT TQQQ RN
Told myself I was done buying today, but itching to buy TQQQ calls before close. Someone tell me NO
It was, because of the rally. TQQQ $50 5/15 C had a 20x return just 1 month later.
Is TQQQ the most delusional subreddit
Take a look at my TQQQ submission the reasoning is there.
TQQQ, SOXL, NVDL, TSMX, MUU, etc
I'd sell TQQQ and buy 3XTIPS with Bombaclat Volatility Decay Protection Insurance Swap 40x anyway if it was available.
This. People need to think of "beating" the S&P on risk metrics, that's the challenge, not just temporary gains. Anyone can easily go all-in e.g. TQQQ and would outperform massively each bull run, with >90% drawdowns around the corner.
What about leveraged etfs like TQQQ - when vol spikes and VIX gets above 25 then get exposure to TQQQ. You need to understand volatility decay and daily rebalancing so hold for shorter timeframes. Also if you wanted to long SVIX that could be another option. I managed to get filled around 9.50 last year during tariff season and that paid pretty good.
Holding both SOXS and TQQQ. One of them is gonna lose on Monday
If you're asking about automated orders - just ask Claude Code to build a program to use the IBKR API to create an order with a stop loss. Those TQQQ buys in the screenshot were done manually though. BOT means buy, SLD means sold.
Lots of people on the TQQQ sub saying they wanna get in. Mirrors this sub and memory after a 1000% runup. I'm not gay but I think the top is in for many of these stocks
I am going to drop 500k on TQQQ on the next crash. If you want to see me do it type ilovecathywood
