Opening (IRA): TQQQ April 19th 53 Monied Covered Call... for a 50.93 debit. Comments: Selling the -75 delta strike against a one lot to emulate a 25 delta short put with built-in defense via the short call. The call IV skew that I was looking to take advantage of before has evaporated somewhat, with the same strike short put paying about the same (1.94) as the max profit potential of this setup. Since I'm doing this in a cash secured environment, I don't get much BP relief over doing the monied versus the short put, so am really doing this setup for its "built-in defense" that I don't have to add in later, as I would should I want to defend a short put. Will generally look to take profit on the entire setup at 50% max, look to roll out the short call at 50% max, and add at intervals, assuming I can get in at lower risk strikes. Metrics: Cost Basis/BPE/Break Even: 50.93 Max Profit: 2.07 ROC at Max: 4.06% ROC at 50% Max: 2.03%

TQQQ Technical Analysis - Breakout and Key LevelsTechnical Breakout: On November 13, 2023, NASDAQ:TQQQ experienced a significant structural shift with the breach of the $40 resistance level.

Opening (IRA): TQQQ April 19th 50 Monied Covered Call... for a 47.75 debit. Comments: Dabbling a smidge in the leveraged ETF due to its high IV (56.3% 30-day). Selling the -75 delta call against a one lot to emulate a 25 delta short put, but with "built-in" defense via the short call, which can be rolled down, out, or down and out to reduce cost basis and setup break even. As usual with the sort of thing, will look to add at intervals, assuming I can get into setups that have a cost basis lower than this starter position. Metrics: BPE/Break Even: 47.75/share Max Profit: 2.25 ($2.25) ROC %-age at Max/50% Max: 4.71%/2.36%

SPY falls into mean VWAP support for LONGSPY on the 1H chart was riding the cynamic resistance of the second upper VWAP line in mid July but then pivoted down out of a head and shoulders at the bottom of the month and is now bounding up and down retesting the support of the mean VWAP line. The ADX indicator shows the flat line directional index. The ZL MACD is upgoing after a cross of the lines at the lows. Price is impending another VWAP crossover on the retest. I see this as an excellent base from which to take call options long targeting $453 for both 8/18 and 9/1. Please leave a comment, will SPY turn it around here or seek the downside?

AAPL to verse to upside trending ? LONGAAPL on the 60 minute chart is compared on the superimposed indicator on its own scale the RSI for a similar time frame. The chart shows that AAPL has sunk to its price level in the pre-earnings period two weeks ago. At present, price and RSI are running in parallel and RSI is a litle higher than price while on its own scale. Price is currently near to the running SMA 200. When I see either price or relative strenth move higher. I will be a buyer. I am looking for some green on the relative volume indicator to tip me off. I will be watching on a lower time frame of 15-30 minutes to get a clean entry pay off the spread and get into profits ASAP.

Opening (IRA): TQQQ December 29th 34.5 Covered Call... for a 33.04 debit. Comments: Selling the monied -75 delta call against a one lot to potentially take advantage of early random call away/*assignment. 33.04 break even with a 1.46 ($146) max profit; 4.42% ROC/32.9% annualized as a function of buying power effect at max. "Random" call away occurs when someone holding the 34.5 long call choses to exercise it before expiration, but I'll look to close at or near max (e.g., 34.45) to avoid the call away/assignment fee if I get the opportunity to do so. On the flip side of the coin, I'll look to roll out the short call to reduce cost basis and my break even further if it chooses to crap its pants.

Opened (IRA): TQQQ December 22nd 35 Covered Call... for a 33.55 debit. Comments: Selling the -75 delta call against ... . Metrics: Buying Power Effect/Share Price Break Even: 33.55 Max Profit: 1.45 ROC %-age At Max As a Function of Buying Power Effect: 4.32% ROC %-age at 50% of Max: 2.16% Delta/Theta: 26.44/2.98 Here's why I'm doing this instead of selling a put at the delta equivalent strike (the +25): if you look at the 25 delta put in the same expiry at the 35, it's paying around 1.27 at the mid (i.e., $127 max). The delta equivalent covered call setup has a slightly better max payout at 1.45 ($145) probably due to a couple of things: (a) IV skew (it's slightly higher on the call side than on the put); and (c) call skew. Relatedly, the short put break even is 33.73 relative the 33.55 break even of the covered call setup. I also wanted to see what the frequency of monied covered call random call away of shares was; most literature suggests early, random assignment is somewhat rare (around 7%) but there isn't much information out there in addition to that, such as when the highest likelihood of early exercise is (it's most likely when the extrinsic value in the call is de minimus) or how deeply monied the call is (which is related to how much extrinsic is left in the long call that the other person would be exercising; deeper in-the-money options have less extrinsic in them relative to less monied options of the same duration). This could naturally give the setup a slight edge over a short put, since an early exercise by a counter-party would result in max profit without having to wait until all the extrinsic has leaked out of the monied short call.

Creating MillionairesWell, some would call me crazy. But that's my long term view: TQQQ made 200x since inception in February 2010 until his top in November 2021. Now, in my opinion, we are in the middle of a Bear Market. My expectation is that this Bear Market will last till December 22 until June 23. After that the next Bull market should start. My expectation for the Nasdaq 100 is to trade around 47.500 Points after this 10 Year Bull Market, which would take the TQQQ to around 1000. This would equal a 100x from the Bear Market lows, which I expect around 10. Of course no one can predict the future but I would also be happy with just 50x in 10 Years :D And I really think that this is a possible scenario. So here is my plan: in December 2022 i will start investing all of my money into TQQQ. For the next 5 years i will put everything into TQQQ too. AND finally in 2034 I'm hopefully a multimillionaire. See you guys in 2034 :D (not a financial advise)

Broad Market Shortest Duration <16 Delta Strike Paying 1% of the Strike Price In Credit: IWM, the January 19th 151, paying 1.58 at the mid (14 delta) QQQ, the January 19th 325, paying 3.44 at the mid (15 delta) SPY, the February 16th 385, paying 3.93 at the mid (15 delta) Me, Personally Currently, I still have quite a bit of broad market on in fourth quarter expiries, with the majority being in the December monthly and the end-of-quarter December 29th. (I have one IWM straggler on in the November monthly). I've begun to deploy out a smidge into the 2024 first quarter), but may just sit on my hands this week depending on whether I can get in at strikes better than what I currently have on. Because of that, I may dabble small with TQQQ as an engagement trade (and to see what all the fuss is about). Pictured here is a 16 delta short put at the 30 strike in the December 15th monthly paying 1.01 at the mid which I'll do as a starter position and then work it from there as I wait on my other positions. I also already have a GDXJ covered call on (See Post Below), but may add a short put to give me a little extra sumthin' sumthin' on that play.

NQ1! Bearish ForecastAfter the very high non farm payroll data but slowing wage growth as well as the unemployment rate which is still in stable numbers, the increase at the end of last week showed that investors considered good economic conditions. apart from fundamentals, from the technical perspectives a bullish candle was formed at the weekend, but by looking at these two aspects in addition to geopolitical conditions, oil, gold, Yield, Dxy and also after looking at the volume profile indicator I speculate that there will be a reversal and will break the channel
