QQQ continues to outperform SPY every fking day
Ah yes, so btw Charlie is dead, Warren was selling AAPL stock last quarter you’ll see in their 13F filing later this month, BRK meeting this weekend, BNSF is laying off the old-school crew to get that cost off their books… I’ll let you read the tea leaves from there QQQ 5/24 400p and I’ll just keep throwing more money at them if it goes up for some reason next week
Is there a reason why SPY, QQQ, TSLA and META doing basically the exact same thing? (My question might be stupid, but it's real)

Im seeing 2 week RSI at 58.94 when I do AAPL/QQQ with RSI length 14 on the daily chart… what am i missing?
Wdym by AAPL/QQQ using relative strength index? As in when looking at AAPL/QQQ and turning on the RSI it was in the oversold (<30) area? Or that just generally AAPL/QQQ was lower than the historical value?
Little trading tip, TradingView you can look at stock as a ratio. AAPL/QQQ using relative strength index was hitting all time low oversold levels. Likely means either long term trend change in outperforming rest of Nasdaq or best buying opportunity relative to rest of Nasdaq it has had in a very long time.

Man why the fuck is QQQ up so much ![img](emote|t5_2th52|31225)![img](emote|t5_2th52|31225)
QQQ has a golden pocket I've been aiming for. NVDA might be the driver there. OTM calls homie. NVDA still has easy numbers to overcome on the YoY. Just know macroeconomics are starting to take root. MCD and SBUX signal weaker consumers. Best play might be a poor man's covered call but firstly staged bullish, then write covered call after earnings. NVDAs short term peak might be after these earnings.
Interesting - AAPL is down off it's AH highs, but QQQ kept ramping up.
You don’t have to apologize. We are a supportive community. Keep $2k in a HYSA. Put $5K into VOO dollar cost average so $1k a month. And put $1k into SCHD over 5 months, and finally $1 into QQQ over 5 months. Use a broker that allows fractional shares like Fidelity. Do not dividend reinvest. Instead use everything from SCHD and rollover into VOO.
You'll be ok, just hold till end of day. Apple was ok, not great, not terrible. It's a tech stock that can't grow from innovation anymore. Buybacks are so lame. Who are they 3M? Market will fall after opening surge. No one is holding QQQ over the weekend.
Buybacks add as much value as stock splits - just saying. But hey, ive got QQQ calls, so F it.

My brother in christ you should sell your SPY, QQQ, LMT, RTN, BP, MSFT, AMZN, GOOG, and META if you have problems with investing in companies with questionable ethics lol. TSLA uses the equivalent of slave labor to mine cobalt for their car batteries. AAPL used Foxconn as their iPhone manufacturers, which used suicide nets to catch workers that tried to throw themselves off buildings. META helped promote genocide in Myanmar because their algorithm spread messages of violence against the Rohingya people. I traded during 2020 and bought SPY when the market was selling off- does that make me complicit in the deaths of millions of people that died from COVID? I traded HE during the Hawaiian fires, does that put blood on my hands for the death of 100 Hawaiians? What about PCG's California fires during 2018? Or banks during 2008? Am I complicit in whoever committed suicide from the FTX crash because SBF decided to be the greatest fraudster in history and I happened to trade crypto during that time? I'm a trader, and I trade events that happen whether they are good or bad. That's reality. If you have a problem with it go invest in an ethical ETF and live guilt-free. The entire bedrock of capitalism is built on slave labor and cheap labor. There is no escaping it.
Is there any ETF which tracks top 10 sp500? FNGU is leveraged so not interested. QQQ is good but not sure whether Amazon and google are included or not.
Actually, a long QQQ/short AAPL pair has mostly worked great for the first 4 months of 2024 for a change of pace (most definitely didn't do it though). I did have a feeling that this was going to occur though. TSLA announced pretty bad earnings and popped in spite of it and in all honesty, it'd just be too convenient if that Apple double top sticks (I think TSLA is SOL, but I wouldn't be surprised if Apple managed to top that $199.62 record).
Margin rates are never worth it over the longer term. Markets can decline pretty fast and margin calls are painful when you have to sell a stock even at a loss. They are only useful if you have to trade short-term. When you consider margin and taxes you are eroding your returns big time. Instead, you can buy leveraged ETFs such as UPRO and QQQ.
I've got QQQ calls, so don't flame me - but surprised that 5 million phones short, AAPL is mooning. They also guided to single digit growth with a 30PE - ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)

QQQ up, corn cucks getting shucked, does it get any better than that
Bulls, I have QQQ calls. Please stop talking shit about AAPL - youre going to jinx it.
can still buy QQQ options till 4:15
new trading strat: Buy QQQ Calls at 3:59 - sell after the close.
This post close QQQ pump is almost becoming a scheduled thing.

Feel like buying QQQ calls so I’m buying qqq puts![img](emote|t5_2th52|12787)
I did the saame thing friend. I opened up puts for QQQ for tomorrow and I didn't expect the stairway up. The one time there isn't an elevator down is when I place puts lol.
*SPY up 0.88%, QQQ up 1.25%* Huh, I remember this story from yesterday! The SEC: "Huh? Sorry, I was sleeping".
QQQ puts for tmro? Or calls cause Apple will rocket?
I am, I've been posting about it all day and no one has responded. Are you playing it? I was considering buying a QQQ straddle right before close
Bought QQQ calls this morning. Saw the crater and held, hoping for the best. Then proceeded to get roped into meetings for a solid 4 hours. This is a nice surprise. Anyway, just sold. Buying all sorts of cannabis calls expiring next Friday. While I don't believe that the industry will have many big winners due to local competition that produces better products for the same or lower prices, I do believe in fomo.
Grabbed a whopping 2 425p's on QQQ for today and tomorrow, let's go random pullback before EOD
Part of me wants to grab QQQ puts in case AAPL disappoints
Last time SPY and QQQ were up around 1%, we had a "completely normal" plunge to red. I will complain to the manager -- the SEC -- if we don't get that into close.
Third times the charm. Punch trough this now QQQ
If the QQQ doesn't instantly jump 1% aftermarket the first time Tim Apple utters AI today, bull market confirmed over.
What is everyone thinking for Non Farm Payrolls / Unemployment Rate tomorrow? Given the jolts, fed decision, and yesterday's rollercoaster in the indexes, I'm curious what everyone thinks might be on the table for tomorrow. Been very much considering a straddle on the QQQ...
market always does opposite of what i say it will on this thread. So... QQQ to 430 EOD
**I know:** let's pump QQQ to 430 then crash again ![img](emote|t5_2th52|18632)
QQQ is going against 5m 50d MA at 424.64 15m 50d MA at 424.80 2H 50d MA at 425.80 4H 200d MA at 425.79. Rough
Iron condor on IWM and QQQ puts on coin calls on apple.
Took profits already on puts. The day after FOMC meetings are usually low volume and risky for SPY/QQQ!
The SPY/QQQ are drilling - VIX mooning... I don't think it's much more complicated than that. I have no theory on yesterday though.
Easy. If NVDA and msft are green QQQ will be green
I'm expecting QCOM to fade throughout the day and that'll weigh on the SPY and QQQ
Stock reports don't matter for short term price movements. Technicals, supply and demand, and overall market momentum and sentiment is what matters. If SPY and QQQ are going down, then it doesn't matter how good the report is for a stock. You have to look at what the broader market is doing.
the market will take off when it opens today. +2% on SPY and QQQ
###QQQ up almost 1% in PM
Nope, sold the majority of my 4/17 QQQ $400puts for \~80% profit after just two days so I said fuck that shit and figured we'd get hulk dildoed into the end of the week
QQQ up bout a percent since I bought calls EOD. This must be unreal
Wonderful! I’ll be happy to do the same thing I did the other day with QQQ puts on 4/29 and sold out at 80+% I honestly hope we rocket on QQQ back to the 441.5 level and I can watch the destruction over the next few weeks as earnings season ends
Why did I buy QQQ 440 lottos on the way down yesterday ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4640)
cool, SPY and QQQ will probably be higher in 2040. Your calls expire tomorrow though ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
I shorted semis weeks before you did and opened my QQQ and SPY puts earlier as well lol
I got scammed by SPY and QQQ give me back my 2% ![img](emote|t5_2th52|27421)
There's a gap fill around the 440 level and if support can't hold there I think the next level to look at is 420. I'll start opening some long share positions below 440 but if we break below 420 I'd hold off until 400 support. If we break below 400 I think it'll be a repeat of 2000. Overvalued tech heavy QQQ gets a 70% haircut and SPY gets dragged into hell for a year or 2. Then we pretty much stagnate for a decade while equities slowly recover.
QQQ is +0.7% overnight, it'll be a rally until Apple reports earnings. There will be Apple earnings hype hence a green day. If Apple reports bad, Friday will be a bloodbath
I had SOXL puts, the moment I saw QQQ going to 0.0% and tracing back to 0.4% I knew a pump was coming, sold all my SOXL puts and went in QQQ 0dte and bought TQQQ with all my savings (70k), made 280% banger on 0dte and 3% on TQQQ and sold almost at the very top, I got so damn lucky, love the casino when I make money
I fucked myself yesterday by selling the put side of the QQQ strangle as it dropped instead of the call side as it rose because I was busy doing my actual job 😂😂😂 Down another 1K... Maybe the calls I flipped to will baile me out
QQQ will go to 414 eow or else 😠 ![img](emote|t5_2th52|31226)
I agree with you completely. My 5 ETFs sort of dilute each other, and even limit my gains. VGT and QQQ are both similar but QQQ more diversified. But FOMO is real. Great to hear that you hold VOO/VTI as well. SCHD was a great bargain for a while, and it has a strong track record of matching VOO at the minimum since 2011. Small cap has been a horror show under Biden. May I ask what other positions you have so you beat the market excluding international?
I mean, its a bit redundant. VGT and QQQ, while different, arent different enough. You have a huge tech overweight. If holding both VTI and VOO make you feel good, cool. People shit on it, but I also hold both. Don't hold SCHD because its popular or for dividends. I hold it because its a great value fund. When you put SCHD and QQQ together, you basically get the S&P 500 with all the unhealthy fat trimmed out. So far my portfolio has beaten the market because I have tilts for growth, value, and small-cap value. It hasn't beaten it by much, but I like the added exposures and the reduction of being S&P dependent. (My portfolio doesnt beat the market if you include my international but that's just how it is over the last decade).
QQQ will green for me tomorrow I can feel it in my pinky toe. Calls for 229 for little toe
yes. Also QQQ. Very very strange
Wtf are these dips on QQQ
QQQ looks very identical, haha.
QQQ and SPY was created to help traders get good exposure in big corporations without the high volatility, but today they both was moving like a penny stock 😂
I was up $20K on calls, then I got called into a meeting. By the time I came back, they were underwater... I have until Friday for QQQ to increase a buck or two. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|31225)
This afternoon was the whackiest shit I've seen in a while. I did close half of my QQQ iron condors for $.92 at the peak this afternoon. They were at $2.50 at the end of the day. I should have closed them all.
the 100k in savings and the 50k to year CD should have gone into corporate bonds. The 50k in treasuries should have gone into QQQ or MTUM.
I can’t believe I lost so much on QQQ puts today. Lost 50% and it came back to 3X after. Feeling so shitty
Imagine thinking we did that whole Sell in May thing before getting a new ATH on QQQ and doubletop on SPY
Just QQQ 414, 418,420 puts for Friday - nothing fancy or specific
Your comment made me wonder why you're all-in on puts. I opened Webull to check SPY and QQQ and.... WHAT.THE.FUCK. 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Gonna drop some knowledge on yall it’s your daily reminder to eat ghost pepper before buying SPY FD’s even though it’s a sticky situation. I always ask Yes or no before a buy a put on QQQ when I’m in the middle of a Nofap commitment. Don’t forget to hold, all in. I say no no no !guh if my calls start to bleed, I hate having to remind you all when you ask is my favorite stock ticker halted. Have a good day everyone. SPY 420 EOW!!! Don’t worry about the K10. Ukraine!!! Michael Burry! short squeeze Short it then! What witchcraft is this? pivot big mommy milkers #I SUMMON THEE, AUTOMOD
Super freaking disappointing end. It's as if there's a large, yellow neon flashing sign that the NDX/QQQ has a hot date with the November 2021 ATH, and it will be that easy.
