Alert: New QQQ trade

Ticker: QQQ
Price: $321.34
Date: 4/28/23 1:00pm
Underlying: Invesco QQQ Trust ETF

Est. Net Credit: $9000

Master Portfolio Contracts: 10

Notes:

We will be jumping back into QQQ trades. We have actually found that the QQQ has been more stable than the XBI recently and so will be good for core trades.

 

For those of you that are also in pro, you do not have to double up if you do want to but we are going with more contracts in 5K.

We will start with a single put calendar two weeks out on the short puts, then manage it depending on what the market does. This has worked well for us over the last several months. In fact, QQQ may be trading more stable than SPY.

This will cost about $9000, require no margin, and we will be trading 10 contracts.  The QQQ puts are trading about $3 cheaper than the call calendar.
